End of Perfect Day in the Subway Mischief
A vignette follows Morton's chaotic day from midnight as a dropped thermometer and a mised alarm cascade into comic misadventure. He pursues a return home amid a lingering suspicion of his wife Nettie while eyeing a flirtatious stranger on a commuter platform. In a public transit twist, he thinks to meet Nettie and breaks into a cheerful, fumbled song about the day.
