It’s the next morning and the fiesta has ended. Jake and Bill have coffee and decide to get a car and travel with Mike to Bayonne, where they will all part ways. They pay their bill, and Montoya does not come near them. The car takes them out of Pamplona. Mike drinks from a bottle of brandy, but Jake drinks very little. They arrive in Bayonne, drop off Bill’s bags at the station, and drive out to Biarritz. There, they have drinks and roll dice to see who will pay for them. Mike repeatedly loses; he runs out of money and Bill pays.

They follow the coast road and, in the distance, see the mountains that lead into Pamplona. They bring Bill to his hotel in Saint Jean and bid him farewell. Back in Bayonne, Bill gets on his train to Paris. Jake disagrees with the driver over the price of a ride to San Sebastian and then decides to stay the night in Bayonne. He eats dinner at the hotel, enjoying being alone and “drinking slowly and […] tasting the wine” (236). The waiter recommends a local liqueur, but Jake doesn’t like it, and sends it back. He’s afraid he’s offended the waiter, so he over-tips to make him happy.
