Vivienne, who is bitter since going through a tough divorce, has lost all hope in love, and reflects these feelings on young Jane. Michael tries to prevent Jane from believing her, and assures her that real love exists. On Christmas Eve, Jane's birthday, her mother takes her to Tiffany & Co in New York City to buy a gift, an annual 'event'. While Vivienne shops, Jane picks out a yellow diamond ring to try on, which Michael tells her will be her wedding ring someday. Then Michael tells her that she is now 'grown up', at the 'age of awareness' and he has to leave her at 5:15pm, the moment of her birth.
