Tiffany Teaches Pat to Dance, Explained：a deal is a deal
At Tiffany's garage studio, the deal turns literal: she makes Pat walk toward her as if she were Nikki, insisting that 'the only way to convey how much you've missed me is by your walk.' When he says he feels nothing, she answers with the story of how her husband died.
あらすじ
Tiffany takes Pat into the garage she has renovated into a dance studio. She asks him to walk toward her as if she were Nikki, and when he objects she reminds him of the deal: no walk, no letter. After he says he feels nothing, she tells him about Tommy's death, the lingerie he bought, and the accident on the road.

What's really going on
The scene is where the film's two damaged people finally do something real together. The dance lesson is a game with rules, and the rules do the work: walk slowly, do not talk, look up only halfway, and treat the partner as Nikki. Tiffany uses it to teach Pat how to show emotion, but she gets the lesson too, because when he says 'I don't feel anything,' she answers with the story of Tommy. Her monologue is the film's rawest piece of writing: the marriage, the months without desire, the pregnancy she did not want, and the lingerie he never got to give her. By the end, the walk and the confession have merged, and the line 'That's a feeling' is about both of them.
Theme
