In the hospital room a woman anxiously waits for Nolan; he arrives with roses. She reveals a painful, swollen foot and pleads, "Please stay with me." Nolan agrees, tells visitors to leave, and stays by her side. A nurse warns her hospital deposit is used up and asks for a top-up; she refuses outside help and insists she'll pay. Accusatory remarks about "that jerk" flare, then Nolan tries to lighten the mood by calling the foot a marshmallow and teasingly biting it. She recoils; someone off-screen asks, "What's wrong?", leaving the moment unresolved.
