![]() When Alan dozes off, Peggy rambles how love never stays pure as “time sours it”. She and Alan make love, with Peggy even telling him that they made a child as well. An astonished Charles stands by the clock (which is working again and strikes midnight) and hears his wife’s desire to have things “perfect” with the stranger. The man, Alan, also carries her across the threshold he wants to have sex in the bedroom, but she coaxes him into staying downstairs. He looks outside to see Peggy bringing another man into the mansion. Later that night, Charles awakens to a car pulling up. We made a child, and she’s only this big. They stop at midnight and cuddle a confident Peggy tells Charles they made a child and that the night is as ”perfect as it will ever get.” He takes her virginity, and they spend the night having passionate sex so loud that the grandfather clock downstairs cracks. It becomes clear Charles did marry her for money, but her newfound sex appeal makes him very attracted to her. Charles lights candles around the bed while Peggy changes into sexy lingerie. They go upstairs and find a bedroom in bizarrely perfect condition. Charles assures Peggy he loves her and they passionately kiss as Charles takes control, Peggy stops him and requests they find a bed to have sex in. She reveals she has been saving herself for her wedding night and how important it is for her first time to be ”perfect”. When Peggy starts to believe Charles isn’t attracted to her and only married for the money, Charles reminds her of all the times they tried to make love before she stopped them. Peggy gets turned on but relents - her timidity leads to a talk about how the two have never had sex, let alone seen each other naked. Peggy notices the fireplace has recently been prepared Charles lights a fire, takes off his wet clothes, and sits naked on the couch. They find the downstairs mostly deserted except for a grandfather clock (still ticking) and a large battle axe framed on the wall. ![]() They go in, with Peggy having Charles romantically carry her over the threshold. Nobody answers, but Peggy finds a key to the front door hidden under a planter. When the car keys mysteriously go missing, the two seek help from a nearby mansion. ![]() Peggy looks for a flashlight in the glove compartment but instead finds a handgun Charles claims it‘s a ”wedding present from Aunt Edith”. While driving through a rainstorm that night, a fallen tree trunk strands the two on the road. An oblivious Peggy waves goodbye as the newlyweds drive off. He reveals they will be kicking Edith out of the family’s house once they return from their honeymoon. He denies this, then accuses Edith for ”sponging” off Peggy herself the past twenty years. Her Aunt Edith highly disapproves of this and believes the gold-digging Charles only married her niece to get a part of her family fortune. Peggy, a mousy but wealthy young woman, marries her handsome fiancé Charles in a small ceremony.
