- the painter teaches the neighborhood kids his little american song.
- the boys are wearing striped t-shirts
- the rich woman is indeed charmed by the painter-man, she wears (is that dior?), a thin string of pearls, grey eyeshadow swept up until a little bit below the manicured brow, bright vermilion on her lips. she sashays in her gown to her barcart, gleaming with fragile glass and silver and pours drinks into small teeny glasses. they haven't even finished their teeny glasses until they've decided to drink from other teeny glasses, at a steaming jazz nightclub. the nightclub is absolutely packed with people, smoke clouds make way to reveal cave painting decals on the wall. a saxophonist blows away into the night, and couples sway in cheek-to-cheek disarray. old men drink orange juice out of straws, not only are there teeny glasses of spirit, but also teeny espresso cups.
- heartbrokenly, white lambskin gloves are unbottoned off a priviledged pair of hands, the leather gleaming in the dark interior of the taxi-cab. her jewels and fur coat are impeccably, harmoniously matched. unexpectedly, the scarlet on her lips echoes the leather of the passenger seat.
- the young lady works at a perfume shop. around her neck is a red handkerchief to add character to her black turtleneck. the telephone she answers is painted white to match the ivory shelves stocked with vials, bottles of olfactorial essences.
- for she is so en vogue that she is differentiated by the normal paris-folk by her cigarette holder, and her gleaming gold-plated lighter. the lavishness of these seemingly-everyday pieces is even more enhanced when she holds them with midnight-black velvet gloves.
- a smiling woman walks her black poodle with a honeybee-yellow leash.
- a milwaukeean woman with an outlandish yellow cap samples amber-colored perfumes by sniffing their glass stoppers.
- jerry, jovial with the fact that he had just arranged a date with lise, arrives home. he unbottons his shirt and walks in upon adam, in pensive concentration. the "concert pianist" is in the midst of composing. jerry, in the highest hopes of amour, hops on top of the piano and lays belly-down. songs of a boyish crush emerge from his chest while adam plays along. it's not long until jerry starts clacking again, this time, on top of poor adam's piano.
- meanwhile (jerry totally unaware), lise relunctantly is being served pheasant in henri's apartment. well, there are actually two pheasants present on the verdure-adorned silver platter. one, the edible kind, is golden-brown and beheaded and another, dead but intact with all its red and black feathers and the humans do not hear the souls of both pheasants lamenting the other's carcass.
