Romeo & Juliet
George goes to Mary's when she returns from college. We see him standing outside her house while she talks to him from the second floor window. It appears like a Romeo and Juliet moment, even if George is behaving rather coldly towards his would-be flame.
Phone Call from New York
Mary gets a call from Sam while George is visiting her. He gets on the phone with her and Capra shoots the two very close. There is a palpable romantic tension between the two, as they are each in love with another, but unable to express it. Finally, they drop the phone and embrace one another in a flurry of kisses.
Pool
In the middle of the graduation party, two jealous outsiders open up the gym floor to reveal a large pool below. George and Mary, blithely unaware of the floor opening up, Charleston directly into the pool in their formalwear. When the other partiers see George and Mary laughing about what has happened, they begin to jump into the pool as well.
Bridal Suite
For their makeshift honeymoon, Mary prepares their old broken down house with posters of faraway places, a fire, a record player, and a fully set dinner table. Capra shows the leaky roof pouring water into the house, the broken windows, and a staircase that is falling apart. In spite of its disrepair, Mary has made the house feel like a home, a romantic hideaway for them to make their own.
