The scene opens with a faint peppermint smell. It's a scent that makes the young man want to stay close to his father. He asks why he's there, and she tells him that she's been crying for so long that she doesn't want anyone to see her. He tells her to go back to her company, but she says she hasn't had enough to eat yet, so she just wants to run away. She tells him to wait for her tonight so she can have dinner with him, and then she'll go home.
