Elisabeth returns to the post office to apply for her passport. The line is much shorter this time, and she is waited on by a woman this time. The woman first tells Elisabeth her hair is not right in her photograph, and then she says that Elisabeth's eyes are not right. Finally, Elisabeth tells the woman to just send in the application and the photographs. She will be responsible if they are rejected. The woman reluctantly complies, and she writes on Elisabeth's receipt that Elisabeth is sending the photos at her own risk.
