• Sees Madeleine leave Scottie's apartment and watches Scottie chase after her. Figures the two of them have become lovers.
• Tries to parlay her jealousy into a joke by painting a portrait of herself as Carlotta Valdes, modeled on the painting that Madeleine stares at in the Legion of Honor.
• Is bitterly disappointed and beats herself up when Scottie, offended and in love with Madeleine as Midge suspects, doesn't like the joke at all.
• Visits Scottie in the psych ward after Madeleine's death.
