An Artist in need of inspiration, goes to a famous art museum. He spends hours walking down its aisles, admiring the artworks of many artists, old and new, taking in the color and artistic skill.

At the same time as he dreams the guillotines blade coming down on Marie's head, a night guard taps him on the shoulder. The tap provoked cardiac arrest and an immediate heart attack because he associated the tap with the guillotines blade.
