Late night, near a column in an almost empty ball-room, somewhere in the world. A decayed 
spa hotel near the coast, which Johan and Marianne visited twenty two years earlier. Now they have become lovers again. They had dinner, a long discussion about their lives started. They are both slightly affected by the dinner and the wine. Johan has gone off to get another bottle. A waitress is clearing the tables. Music can be heard from another room.
