The soundtrack is the song, “This Thing Called Love”.  There’s a bunch of text superimposed, delivering no doubt some very important health information, but this time at least I didn’t read a word of it!   You can see the car for a just a moment parked at the curb, then the last shot is a closeup of the couple getting into the car, shot through the windshield.
