- The second scaffold scene focuses on Arthur. He feels guilty about what's happened to Hester. Arthur feels that he should take at least some responsibility. Hester and Pearl then joined him to form an "electric-chain." When the A meteor brightens up the sky, it is a reminder of his own scene.
- The third and last scaffold scene. Arthur reveals himself as Pearl's father and calls himself "the one sinner of the world." Then, Arthur reveals the Scarlet Letter that was on his chest.
