The Apartment

25: Baxter and Fran converse in the elevator and really connect: He invites her to lunch, she gives him her flower. He then speaks with Sheldrake and gives him a key, starting a relationship that results in conflict between the three of them. The birth of something new.

45: Baxter is now in his new office. The four men who borrowed his key are wondering why he's locking them out. Sheldrake enters and the four men exit. Sheldrake wants a second key and we learn (and Baxter becomes aware) Sheldrake is not in love with Fran. Now that I'm aware.

60: An unloving Sheldrake gives Fran $100 on Christmas Eve, making her feel sad. Minutes later Fran overdoses and Baxter finds her on his bed; he starts taking care of her. There's no going back now.

-45: Baxter calls Sheldrake and informs him of Fran's suicide attempt. We see Sheldrake with his two boys as they play with their toys. Fran wakes up. Baxter hides the razor blades, aware that Fran needs looking after. Discovery.

-25: Fran talks with Sheldrake over the phone. Sheldrake attempts to make Fran believe she's lucky he's not angry at her. Sheldrake's assistant listens in and informs Mrs. Sheldrake. Fran eventually leaves Sheldrake for Baxter. The final turning point.
