He makes a date with another albeit less attractive but probably more age appropriate hotel worker. Then in bed he slightly kisses Mary and turns his back on her. She then looks longingly out at 2 lovers wishing it was them. He keeps the date, she sees him and he follows after her pleading with her. Then she forgives him and they end up in a hot tub together. Yeah, doesn't really fit this beautiful song. Him getting his paper pushed down is not the clue to run away, her clue is the whole dinner and the cheating-she should have run away and not forgiven him. Like I said, the premise really didn't fit the song.
