With Antonio's threat neutralized, the remaining members of both families are more receptive to Romeo and Julian's proposal. After hours of tense negotiation, they finally agree to a truce, a fragile but hopeful peace that could end the years of bloodshed.

Romeo and Julian, exhausted but relieved, prepare to leave New York once more. They know that while the battle is over, the war is far from won. But they also know that they have a chance now, a real chance, to build a new life together.
