During the ceremony, newly hired chauffeur Karl Schneider arrives, and soon finds an old acquaintance - a former lover - Countess De Marnac. Karl wins over her sympathy by telling her about his unfortunate childhood. He tries to kiss her, but she slaps him and warns him never to try again. As soon as Albert returns from the trip, he fires Karl for a plausible reason and then unleashes his frustration on Anna.
