 On his return to Earth , Liliom encounters his daughter , Louise , who like her mother is now a factory worker . Saying that he knew her father , he tries to give her a star he stole from the heavens . When Louise refuses to take it , he strikes her . Not realizing who he is , Julie confronts him , but finds herself unable to be angry with him . Liliom is ushered off to his fate , presumably Hell , and Louise asks her mother if it is possible to feel a hard slap as if it was a kiss . Julie reminiscently tells her daughter that it is very possible for that to happen .
