Henry Jekyll, a good but troubled man, laments his thoughts of violence, jealousy, and lust before realizing he’s late for a party. Once he arrives in the great hall, he is greeted by his wife Sarah. As the two dance a romantic pas de deux, their friends admire the obvious affection for each other. Later, Henry’s eyes meet a beautiful young woman. The room slows to a standstill as Henry imagines the two dancing a flirtatious and lustful duet. The room comes back to life as Henry snaps out of the fantasy. He is overcome with feelings of shame and embarrassment and quietly slips away from the crowd.
