The serenade that unmasked a town Lothario
In Rouen a serenade at the Bareands' dance reveals Tom Carewe as a town favorite and a rumored ladies’ man. Miss Betty Carewe rejects him after misreading his gesture, provoking public embarrassment and a dramatic walk from the party as whispers rise. Betty’s forthright rebuke and Tom’s humiliation mark a turning point in their tangled courtship and social dynamics.
