Have you any children?

No, mon commandant.

I have no children.

This is Odette.

Thank you, I am very well.

Reverend Mother, I have to go to

Scotland.

If I am not here for the holidays,

my aunt will arrange

for the children to go somewhere

safe.

Yes, I do not want them to be in

London. It is too dangerous.

There they are now,

on their way to class,

if you'd like to speak to them.

I'll call them.

Oh, no! No, no, no, please. I could

not do that!

Sister Terese.

Could Francoise, Lily and

Marianne speak to their mother?

She's on the telephone.

Yes, Reverend Mother.

Marianne, Lily, Mummy's on the

telephone!

They're just coming. Here they are.

Hello, Mummy!

Hello! Wait a minute!

Francoise, I'm just going away to

Scotland.

In the FANYs.

Yes, darling, you have seen them

driving cars for officers.

That's right.

Now, Francoise, I want you to be a

good girl

and to look after Lily and Marianne.

And you will work hard, won't you,

darling?

You know your first report was not

very good.

Yes, I hated arithmetic too,

but you will try to learn it.

All right.

Goodbye, Francoise.

Hello, Lily.

And I love you with all my heart

too.

Darling...

darling, you will try to stop biting

your fingernails?

Oh, she put some bitter stuff on

them, did she?

Does she?

Goodbye, Lily.

Hello, my sweetie pie.

Have you, darling?

Does she shut her eyes when she goes

to sleep, like a real baby?

How lovely.

Goodbye, my darling and...

God bless you, baby.

Oh, no, Marianne, do not cry!

Do not cry.

Au revoir. Merci. Au revoir. Bonne

chance.

Qui etes-vous?

Qui etes-vous?

Je m'appelle Lise.

Je suis Jacques.

Bonjour, Jacques.

I'll take you to a fisherman's home

in Cassis

so you can rest until the train.

Merci.

Then I am to take you to Toulon.

The German troops are there.

There I will put you on the train

for Cannes.

Raoul will be waiting for you

outside the station.

When you see him,

go up and say,

"Pardon, monsieur. Monsieur

Chauvet?"

Pardon, monsieur. Monsieur Chauvet?

STATION ANNOUNCEMENTS IN FRENCH

Pardon, monsieur. Monsieur Chauvet?

Bonjour, Lise. Bonjour.

My instructions were to

report to the Villa Bleue.

Yes, yes, I know all about that.

Why have the orders of London been

disregarded?

Well, shall we go into that later?

Meanwhile, welcome to Cannes.

Well, your billet's up here, Lise.

Number 21.

Ring the top bell twice and ask for

Catherine. She's expecting you.

If I were you, I

should get some sleep.

Thank you. I'm not at all tired.

Aren't you?

After being tossed about in a felucca

for ten days, you ought to be.

When you've had some sleep,

come to the Salon de Beaute in La

Croisette, number 36,
