Max introduces his wife, Queenie, who is mute and communicates through sign language. Max notices Queenie's quiet and limited appetite, and gently encourages her to eat more than just vegetables, showing concern for her well-being. He reflects on how the original soul neglected Queenie badly, but Max is determined to treat her better and build their bond. Just as Max begins to consider deepening their relationship, someone calls him to hurry up and go to the casino, interrupting the moment and leaving the question of how Max will balance his new intentions unresolved.
