In this short scene, we learn that the girl we met earlier in the novel is now in Paris, where she is being cared for by a man named Jo. Jo asks Jo if she wants to go to bed with him, but Jo refuses, saying that she doesn't want him to know that she's in love with him. Jo tells her that she can go ahead and sleep with him as long as she wants, and Jo agrees. Jo then tells Jo that on their first night together, she wanted to do all she could to make sure that he didn't tell anyone about their love, but she froze when she realized that she was being watched.
