After the break, it's Jace's turn, but before he can enter the dance floor, Luna stops him by grabbing his arm. He turns and looks at her with a questioning smile.

Mary: Mrs. Harronate has absolutely nothing against it, my dear. But I just want you to call me like all the other children.

Luna: Since I'm still having a hard time with that, can we agree on "Mr. Jace"?

Jace: Deal. Let's go now.

Jace takes Luna by the hand and they go to the dance floor. Nicolae, who has overheard the conversation from afar, sits down next to his mother, who hugs him tenderly.

Nicolae: I thank you for the way you treat Luna.

Mary: We're not doing this out of a sense of duty, baby. We really like this girl. She's such a good match for you.
