"She was my approaching comfort, always exciting me for what was to come with her arrival." 

As a defendant sits in a courtroom, he recalls his to-be wife. He stands accused of her murder, and accepts her death instead of his incarceration as he is pestered by the plaintiff's lawyer. Love is a common theme, but always stronger in retrospect. We see through his eyes that things are always there most beautiful in our memories, when we know that's now the only place they'll survive.
