Synopsis: A conversation about romantic encounters with women. One man tells how he has seen many women in the streets of Paris he is sure he could love if he was acquainted with them, but somehow no woman he actually knows has that effect on him. And another, Roger des Annettes, tells about his encounters with a certain mysterious woman. He saw her on the street many times, was greatly struck by her; he eventually invited her to his house, even though she wouldn't tell anything about herself, but that went badly. Now he is obsessively in love with her, seeing her everywhere in imagination, and is becoming convinced that she bewitched him.
