   After Kunicki’s marriage is annulled, Dyzma prepares to marry Nina. But trouble resurfaces: Terkowski, whose quarrel with Dyzma sparked his meteoric rise, now seeks to expose him. With help from the “Lodge of Twelve” ladies, the threat is neutralized. Dyzma resigns as President of the Grain Bank, seemingly in protest against government decisions, and returns to Koborowo. During a lavish estate reception, a presidential envoy arrives, asking Mr. Nikodem to accept the mission of forming a new government. Everyone is thrilled, and Dyzma considers the offer. Only the eccentric Żorż Ponimirski shouts, “Dyzma is a scoundrel and a fraud!”.
