A scene in a bedroom beside a canopy bed: A older gentleman with a caricatured face embraces a young servant woman who holds a warming pan in one hand and candlestick in the other. The man's wig is smoldering from the flame of the candle. The man's young valet slinks out of the room with the man's boots and a book jack under his arms, a look of alarm on his face. Beside the door is the man's duffle bag; his coat lies on the chair beside the bed
