While she is gardening, she sees her husband Henry talking to some men, then, he admires her flowers, tells her that he'd like to go out for dinner later, and then goes away. Then, a wagon pulls in front of her house, and the man driving it asks the woman about the plants she's growing. She gives him some sprouts. Later on, she heads to town with her husband in the car and sees the chrysanthemums she gave to the man thrown on the road. Finally, she turns up her coat collar and cries.
