The tone is very loving.The conversation continues though As follows:CUCUSRS- This is the point where the news of where they’re going is delivered and a slight change of camera angle can add interest, and tension to the dialogue, However we are constantly reminded of their character arch’s they have both understanding and seemingly unconditional love for each other. It then cuts to the outside scene:DS – showing the hospital recognisable by a sign and an ambulance instantly.OS- To show the last piece of dialogue which is sincere: it cuts to pan/zoom shot fading into the hospital, and in a way concluding the opening to the scene.To the audience this shows a change of events, and a possible change of events. A scene change.
