One day the farmer tells his wife he will kill Sultan because he has lost most of his teeth and seems useless as a guard dog.
His wife begs him to reconsider, telling him how loyal Sultan has been to them for many years, but the farmer's mind is made up.
The wolf's plan succeeds, and the farmer was so grateful that he has his wife make Sultan some bread soup and gives him a special cushion to sleep on.
The boar runs away and tells Sultan and the cat that the wolf who has hidden himself in the branches of a tree is the one they want.
The wolf feels extremely guilty for his actions and asks Sultan to forgive him, which he does, and they become good friends again.
