At a family meeting about a wedding date, younger family members urge Mr. and Mrs. Lane to accept compromises—suggesting next summer or a lawn ceremony—while insisting some requirements can't be traded. Parents press back; one voice says, "if she isn't satisfied, let's keep looking," raising the stakes. After someone says, "I'll head out first," the scene shifts to Anne and Dr. Young. Anne admits, "I can't make your medicine. Can you help me do it?" Dr. Young agrees. The wedding remains undecided and the practical burden falls to Dr. Young, leaving plans unsettled.
