In this short scene, we learn that Miura is leaving for work at the same time as the rest of the group. Miura's departure from the office is not a sign of her love for the other men in the group, but a sign that she has lost the ability to resist her husband's advances. As she leaves the office, Miura wonders how she has been able to resist the advances of Mr. Manette. She wonders if she has ever been excited to be with him, and how she can resist him now that she no longer has the power of resistance. She decides that she must tell Miura her feelings for him and then lead her to him.
