(Part two of three) This clip continues with the man in the tuxedo directing the girls, until his control is interrupted by a woman who comes out of a bush playing a violin. In LS the girls observe and follow the man, until in WS a woman with a violin creeps out of a bush onto the scene. She mimics the man’s movements and the girls then come close to her. The man does not notice her as he continues to dance with the girls. The woman starts to play the violin and we see the scene in LS and WS. The woman seems to be leading the girls away with her music, and the final girl to leave the man hits him in the head with her foot (in LS). We see his reaction in MS as the clip ends.
