	On My Own Eponine is in love with Marius but realises that he does not feel the same way about her.
Building The Barricade The barricade is completed, ready for the uprising.
	"Damn their warnings, damn their lies. They will see the people rise!" Despite warnings from the army, Enjolras will not admit defeat and he once again raises the spirits of the revolutionaries. (It's me, it's me!)
Javert's Arrival Javert, posing as a revolutionary, comes to the barricade in order to spy.
	Same picture as above but a close-up on Clair and I - I'm the one pointing and she's sitting on the ground next to me, on my right.
Little People Javert has them all fooled, but Gavroche knows who he is and exposes him to the revolutionaries.
	Little People The students tie Javert up and plan to kill him later.
Little People The revolutionaries look at Javert with disgust.

Same picture as above but a close-up on Clair and I - me on the left and her on the right.
	The First Attack The fight begins, and there are a few casualties. (I'm one of them - you can only see my stomach. I'm on the right side of the stage, with a guy bending over me.)

	The Second Attack (Death Of Gavroche) The revolutionaries need more ammunition so Gavroche tries to get over to the other side of the barricade to fetch some, but is fatally wounded.
The Final Battle All of the remaining revolutionaries are killed on the barricade, including their leader Enjolras.
	Javert's Suicide Confused by Valjean's decision to spare his life at the barricade and angry at his beliefs being challenged Javert comes to a point where he can no longer cope and jumps to his death in the river.
The Wedding Having survived the revolution, thanks to Valjean, Marius is able to marry his beloved Cosette.
	Beggars At The Feast The Thenardiers think they have information about Valjean that Marius does not know. They turn up at the wedding thinking they can get money out of him. In the end they do, so they are quite content.
Epilogue Thanks to the Thenardiers Marius has worked out who it was who saved his life on the barricade. He and Cosette rush away from the wedding to see Valjean, who is now dying. He tells Cosette the truth about her life and then passes away.
	Finale Valjean joins the spirits of Fantine and Eponine.
Finale The spirits of all the revolutionaries who died on the barricades appear.
	Finale Here is the entire company - on-stage cast, choir, and the orchestra up on top of the bridge.
