00:03:53 Agnes!
00:11:43 They wouldn't understand. Especially Marguerite.
00:15:37 No, I'm not.
00:17:56 I don't understand! You want to talk about the baby, everybody does.
00:20:41 The lady...
00:23:32 - And in your eyes? - I've told you.
00:28:33 Not anymore. Now I like chocolate.
00:31:39 Who?
00:34:23 That's her innocence. She belongs to God.
00:39:37 - That's why I don't understand things. - Like what?
00:42:34 - Your mother... - It was a mistake.
00:45:27 - Visitors to the convent? - Nothing.
00:49:20 - She shouldn't return to the convent? - No.
00:52:22 - How does she know? - Headaches.
00:56:02 And Agnes' father?
01:01:25 - I don't give a damn. - I know you don't.
01:04:39 Would you like one?
01:08:31 And while you're sleeping, you're going to be able to recall...
01:11:21 - Open your eyes. What do you see? - My bed.
01:15:42 This has everything.
01:21:42 If it's murder, then it's the Crown Attorney you have to talk to, not me.
01:26:48 - Where? - From the bell tower before she died.
01:30:32 Agnes, what did she do?
01:34:54 That would be miracle enough, wouldn't it?
