A group of students gathers to open long-awaited college admission notices and erupt in joy as several discover university acceptances. They praise Marian, admitting they’d underestimated her, while one student who feared failing nervously watches. Marian says she'll go to the bathroom, but classmates insist on witnessing her reveal. Excitement builds—"Now is the moment to witness a miracle!"—then a voice reads a final notice and blurts, "A junior college?" The celebration stalls; whose result it is and what it means for Marian remain unresolved, leaving everyone stunned.
