| Description: |
A somewhat calmer variant on the Lullaby theme; John proposes leaving his wife and Vergie talks him out of it; ends with a rhapsodic violin solo over a tonic pedal; after this scene there is a time-lapse montage (unusually without music) moving the year from 1924 to 1932) |
| On-screen: |

| Analysis: |
The cue begins over a dominant pedal and features some altered dominants; after resolving to the tonic, it is embellished with a rich viio7/I harmonic, then ends with a I add6 chord; mode mixture adds a somber tinge at the end of the scene (a sigh gesture) |
