An Unexpected Gift

By chance, Julius learns about Elsa' birthday. He says, "I hope you'll let me celebrate it for you," and works desperately to clear his work so he can take Elsa to the opera. The splendid production and Julius's kindness combine to make Elsa's day a very special one. On a different day, while in town, Elsa comes across a rundown church with a children's home that is struggling to make ends meet.
