The next morning, the men prepare for the water ceremony, which involves jumping into the freezing cold water. As they do so, they are interrupted by a mother who asks her daughter why she is soaking wet. The girl replies that she was the flower in the "Florist's Joke" , which was a reference to the fact that she is not a member of the family. When she asks why he is not allowed to see the family, he replies that he is in the position to select people for the ceremony.
