Jim is in Brazil for the first time, and he meets up with his friend Chika, who's also in town for a concert. Jim asks Chika if she thinks the Japanese conductor is a good one, and she says yes, but she thinks he's a bad conductor. Jim says he'd like to hear more about the women in the city, and Chika says she thinks they're beautiful, too. Jim tells Chika that the third movement of scaramouche in the samba is really good, but he wishes he could get into the mood more. Chika asks if he could marry her, and Jim says yes. He's met her before, and they have a great relationship. He thinks maybe she was happier back in Japan, and that's why she said she wouldn't marry him unless he married her. Jim thinks maybe they should start from the beginning of the second movement, too, because it's been weird for Chika for so long.
