- Archer takes his wife's brougham (a kind of carriage) to pick up Madame Olenska at the station.
- In the carriage alone together, Archer and Ellen once again profess their love for each other, but once again Ellen explains how impossible it would be to run away with him. She kisses him anyway.
- As they get closer to Mrs. Manson Mingott's, Archer gets out of the carriage and lets Madame Olenska go on alone without him.
