• Seven years have passed and Dexter has established himself as a successful businessman in New York.

• One day, a man named Devlin comes into Dexter's office and mentions knowing someone from Dexter's hometown.

• Dexter does not have to ask to know that the person he speaks of is Judy.

• Devlin tells Dexter that Judy's husband drinks and does not treat her well; he also cheats on Judy.

• Dexter asks if Judy runs around as well, and Devlin tells him that she stays at home with the kids.

• Devlin does not believe Judy will ever leave her husband because she loves him and she always forgives him.

• Devlin tells Dexter that Judy has lost her looks.

• Dexter is nearly outraged and he tells Devlin that Judy was the most beautiful woman.

• When Devlin leaves, Dexter lies on the couch and thinks about the beauty of the Sherry Island and the beauty of Judy Jones.

• Then he realized there is no point as that beauty no longer exists in the world.

• Dexter cannot care nor can he cry; he feels that his winter dreams have been taken away from him.
