A paparazzi photographer appears and begins hounding them for pictures. Mia takes Adam’s arm and they run across the street. She has a key to a garden that they can reach through a nearby alley. They manage to escape from the photographer. Mia says that she was involved with a conductor named Ernesto. He’s the one who gave her the key to the garden.
