Barker keeps talking about the grand opportunities for wealth in Skagway, not from a miner's hard work, but from business opportunities that arrive with each passenger. Eventually Hawthorn learns that Barker is a thief. Barker tries to get Hawthorn involved, saying that he has a perfectly innocent face and will never be suspected. Hawthorn is offended and tells Barker that he has honor and will not commit the crime. Barker tells Hawthorn he will regret the decision.
