Lady Scarlet, seated on her throne, scoffs in frustration. She’s grown tired of her slave’s repeated failures to meet her expectations. His duty is to clean the dungeon, yet he only focuses on polishing her boots to perfection, neglecting the rest of his tasks.
Angered, she summons him and begins to slap him across the face, reprimanding him for his negligence. She makes it clear that such behavior will not be tolerated and that polishing her boots is not enough to make up for his lack of effort.
The slave, aware of his mistake, suffers in silence, not daring to oppose. At one point, he even kisses her hands, but Lady Scarlet had not given him permission to do so and she hits him back.
Once her hands are warm and his face is red, she sends him away, satisfied with the lesson she has taught him.
