- [at night in Konstanze's bedroom]
- [Konstanze preparing the sofa for Georg to stay overnight, then switching off the light]
- [Georg Rentmeister standing at the closed door in the room only lit by the full moon]
- Konstanze: Switch on the light when I give you permission. Not before! Do you read me?
- Georg Rentmeister: Naturally, I'm listening. My ears do work in the dark. Only seeing is difficult.
- [Constanze sitting in the dark on her bed, undressing, preparing for sleep]
- Konstanze: Georg?
- Georg Rentmeister: Yes.
- Konstanze: I will count to three... One... two...
- Franz-Xaver von Raitenau: [outside in the corridor] Constanze? Are you asleep?
- Konstanze: No, Franzl. But I just turned off the light. Sleep well!
- Franz-Xaver von Raitenau: You too! Sweet dreams!
- Konstanze: Georg?
- Georg Rentmeister: Yes.
- Konstanze: I think it's better you don't turn on the light anymore.
- [the full moon is covered by clouds, turning the room in total darkness]
- Georg Rentmeister: I think so, too. But how do I find my sofa?
- Konstanze: Please, take three steps ahead... two steps half right... and now one big step right
- Georg Rentmeister: At your orders... oops!
- [the full moon appears again, the camera panning to the empty sofa lit by the full moon]
