While they dance, having the time of the lives as it were, Janis is going to be having a bit of an Anastasia moment. All around them she (and only she) will see spectral images swirling around them.
Hester, wearing a stunning blue dress, walking across the floor arm-in-arm with someone else whose image is a person-shaped blur in a tuxedo. Hester slow dancing with another girl, eyes closed and cheek on her shoulder. Hester wiping her eyes with a tissue with another person-shaped blur in a prom dress standing beside her. Hester standing awkwardly in dress nearly identical to the one she's wearing now, her straight hair a voluminous pile of curls.
Then, just before the song ends, a final vision: Hester, looking stunned and hurt but holding her head high with a crown on her head side-by side that immediately transitions to her with a tiara, looking stunned but thoroughly thrilled.
The real Hester sets Janis down, out of breath, a little sweaty and bright-eyed.]
