Ulrich makes the first overture of friendship and promises that if the Gradwitz men arrive first then he will have them help Georg first. Ulrich proclaims that the feud has lasted long enough and asks Georg to be his friend.

Georg is silent for a long time but then begins to speak about how peace between the two men would be good for the entire town. Again, he expresses gratitude that there are no "interlopers" to prevent their peacemaking. Georg accepts the offer to be Ulrich’s friend.
