Go To

1* After the Juicy Fruits' complete their set, Winslow rolls out his piano and begins playing some of his Faust concerto. He is there, letting his heart and soul out on the stage. All the while, we get a 360 view of everything, seeing people not caring and leaving. By the end of the song, he is sitting alone in a room that had been full of people earlier.
2* Winslow's entire TraumaCongaLine is this, especially when he's committed to Sing Sing where he speaks his mind about not wanting to have his teeth removed and knowing that he can't stop it from happening.
3* When Phoenix starts singing "Old Souls" Winslow is so moved by how well she sings his music that he starts crying. It is the only time in the entire movie something really goes right for him and immediately afterwards it starts going horribly wrong for him again.
4* Winslow watching [[NoYay Phoenix and Swan]] from the rooftop, in the rain. He can't even die to escape the sadness and horror.
5--> You gave up your right to rest in peace when you signed this contract.
