show up late for supper.

-Okay, sunday. No, not before lunchtime.

-Well, ciao.

See you tomorrow.

Bye.

No, go on.

Uh-huh, I know.

You caught one. Yes, yes, I can

hear you very well.

Didn't you see how he was blushing?

He's cute, except he doesn't have any, um--

And he never has enough money

for room and board at school.

That's why that b*tch Tanner

has got him under her thumb.

She gives him 1,001 errands to do.

Sure.

I got it. Okay.

Call me back tomorrow evening.

Give me a chance to think it over.

Yes, yes. Okay, okay.

Anyway, he is cute.

Poor Pat. She liked him a lot.

That poor kid, ending up like that.

I can't even think about it.

I heard you saw her yesterday evening.

Uh-huh. Outside the school.

She was acting very strange.

Mumbling to herself.

She really felt terrible when they kicked

her out, but she really deserved it.

-There was so much noise.

-God, was she difficult.

She was saying things that made no sense.

She was always arguing, causing trouble.

"Secret."

"Iris."

What?

Uh, I remember...

She mentioned the word "secret."

And then she...Mentioned a flower--

Iris, I think, or a lilac.

Secret flowers? What's

that supposed to mean?

I don't know. She was a busybody.

It would've been easy for her to

find out one of us was in a jam.

-How do you like it at Olga's?

-It's nice.

Those eight on the list this morning,

come with me to the yellow room.

Good morning, miss Tanner. Suzy.

-Good morning, madame Blanc.

-I've got good news for you.

We have it all arranged.

Your room is ready for you.

Isn't that marvelous? You can

move in today, if you like.

But I'd rather stay at Olga's, if it's okay.

Doesn't matter to me, my dear,

But in your letter of enrollment, you

said you'd be boarding at the school.

-I know, but--

-The room is free now.

-Well, I didn't think it was so important.

-As you wish.

If that's what you want, so be it.

Sara?

I had no idea you were so strong-willed.

I see that when you make up

your mind about something,

Nothing will change it for you.

My compliments.

Witch!

And then, toward the end of the 19th century,

The technique of classical ballet...

Assumed a different, more stylized impostation.

All right. Let's warm up.

What's wrong? Don't you feel well?

No, it's nothing. I just feel a little weak.

If it gets any worse, I'll just stop.

And now some exercises.

Daniel, you may begin.

One, two, three and four.

And one and two...

And three and four.
