It's early autumn in the mid-1930s.
Several people stop at the cafe.
This amiable, accurately named fellow is a jolly middle-aged man. With the baker is the young and lovely Genevieve whom the Marquis mistakes for the baker's daughter. The error is quickly addressed. After the couple leaves the cafe, with their cat Pompom, to move into their new home, the cafe customers exchange a few remarks about the baker robbing the cradle. The next scene is set in the bakery.
