Anna Karenina
Authorship not stated
You play Anna Karenina, travelling overnight to Moscow to patch up your brother's marriage before his wife stops opening her door. The countess sharing your compartment spends the journey praising a son who will meet the train; on the platform he turns out to be Alexei Vronsky, who takes your case from you while the snow comes down. Then a whistle cuts the porters short, men run toward a lantern fallen by the wheels, and the line is closed.
