The lover departs, heartbroken, and Jeanne gives herself over to despair. Gazing at the laudanum her father is applying to his tooth, she contemplates suicide. The mother anticipates her, and replaces the drug with water. The lovers agree upon a suicide pact, if they cannot be united on earth, they will join each other among the stars. They meet at the last trysting place, and after swallowing the supposed poison, embrace, eagerly awaiting death. There they are discovered by the agitated father and the composed mother, still waiting for death! Papa repents of his cruelty, and the lovers gladly abandon their dreams oi the stars!
