Jefferson Wyler House Walkway

Sunlight floods the sunroom at the back of the Jefferson Wyler house, where Toby blindfolds Andy before revealing the space and dropping to one knee with his proposal. Tension mounts as Andy rejects him outright, pinpointing the pervasive sadness that shadows his life. Their voices carry through the airy room during this raw exchange of truths, until her water breaks on the floor, snapping the intimate rupture into sudden medical chaos.
