• Point of view shot from Kate's boyfriend. Kate looks into camera as if talking to the audience.- Notion of looking.
• Goes to shot under table, showing Kate move away from him – lyrics linking with visuals “my finger tips are holding onto the cracks…”
• Another sequence of close ups showing the reactions to each other – mostly annoyed
