One of Max’s introductions to the finer things of life, happens one afternoon while he lay by the estate pool. He is told by his uncle to entertain a visitor’s daughter, someone his age named Fanny Chenal. For a while, Max rests in a lounge chair and reads on one side of the pool and Fanny, sits in a chair on the other side. After several moments, we see her dive into the pool and swim across to the other side where Max lay reading. She kisses him sweetly and whispers in his ear, “Forgive my lips, they find joy in the most unusual places.”
