Frankie and Phoenix appear as though in a split screen. The music for “HEAD OVER FEET” begins.

STEVE: (to Mary Jane) I miss you. We were amazing once. Do you remember?

STEVE:

I had no choice

You stated your case

I thought about it

MARY JANE:

You treat me like

I’m not used to

PHOENIX:
But to hear you

Time and again
I thought about it

FRANKIE:

I’m a princess
Liking that

You ask how my
day was

MARY JANE: I’m just tired.

STEVE: You don’t have to do so much, MJ.

FRANKIE:

You’ve already won me over¹
In spite of me
And don’t be alarmed
If I fall
Head over feet

MARY JANE:

And don’t be alarmed
If I fall

1 Says orchestrator Tom Kitt, “The verse modulates up a step into the chorus, but because I was speaking to different characters and different places and times within the song, I modulated even more, so the song begins in one key, and then it modulates to another key for that first chorus. Putting it all together, I felt like a mad scientist.”
