At a private recital she meets a young vigorous man, Walter Klemmer, who plays the piano in a most seductive manner for her. She attempts to keep distance from the young piano player in various ways. However, he applies to the Vienna conservatory in order to be her student. This makes it tremendously difficult for her, since she seems to be terrified of being hurt by Walter's seductive manners.
