Joe Donnelly has an epiphany during Maria's song. He begins to cry, presumably because his thoughts begin to dwell on his mundane life and just how much of a dead routine it is. But, before he allows himself to face this fact, he asks his wife for a corkscrew, a rather common item, in hopes that a drink will allow him to forget his regrets and his dead existence.
