Norbert, pursued by the police and riot police, runs through the mountains. As he prepares to use the secret passage in the Grand Baou refuge, he is stopped by customs officers accompanied by César. The old hiding place is soon discovered, containing a radio transmitter and the passage to Italy. Questioned, Norbert denies everything and accuses Jean of having smuggled the microfilm abroad himself. At the chalet, once the fire is extinguished, the police discover Norbert's transmitter. Before the eyes of a distraught César and a weeping Angelina, they arrest Jean. To protect Belle and fearing she will be killed, Sébastien flees with the dog to the Grand Baou refuge via the avalanche chute. He discards the dog's collar containing the microfilm, unaware that he is throwing away the only proof of Jean's innocence. In the mountains, the wind and fog are rising. Belle senses the danger. An avalanche is triggered...
