Laberinto del Fauno, El Page #4

---

- Charmed.

- A pleasure to meet you.

From now on,

one ration card per family.

Take a look.

- One?

- Only one.

Captain, I'm not sure

it'll be enough.

If people are careful,

it should be plenty.

We can't allow anyone to send food

to the guerillas in the mountains.

They're losing ground,

and one of them is wounded.

Excuse me, Captain,

how can you be so sure?

We almost got them.

We found this.

Antibiotics.

God has already

saved their souls.

What happens to their bodies

hardly matter to Him.

We'll help however we can, Captain.

We know you're not here by choice.

You're wrong about that.

I choose to be here because I want

my son to be born in a new, clean Spain.

Because these people

hold the mistaken belief...

...that we're all equal.

But there's a big difference:

The war is over and we won.

And if we need to kill every one

of these vermin to settle it...

...then we'll kill them all,

and that's that.

We're all here by choice.

By choice!

Put the coffee on.

I'm going for more wood.

We'll take care of it.

Ofelia?

So, how did you

and the Captain meet?

Ofelia's father used to make

the Captain's uniforms.

Oh, I see.

And after he died,

I went to work at the shop.

A little more than a year ago...

...the Captain and I met again.

Curious, isn't it!

I mean, finding each other again?

Oh, yes,

very, very curious.

Please, forgive my wife.

She hasn't been exposed to the world.

She thinks these silly stories

are interesting to others.

We understand.

Excuse me, madam

Ofelia is here.

Excuse me.

Have I told you that I was acquainted

with your father, Captain?

No.

I had no idea.

In Morocco.

I knew him only briefly,

but he left a great impression.

An excellent soldier.

The men in his battalion said that when

General Vidal died on the battlefield...

...he smashed his watch on a rock...

...so that his son would know

the exact hour and minute of his death.

So he would know

how a brave man dies.

Nonsense.

He didn't own a watch.

What you've done hurts me.

After your bath,

you'll go to bed without supper.

Are you listening?

Sometimes I think

you'll never learn to behave.

You've disappointed me, Ofelia.

And your father, too.

You mean the Captain?

Him more than me.

I've got the key.

Take me to the Labyrinth.

Hello.

I got the key out.

That's me,

and the girl is you.

And the baby?

So... you retrieved the key.

I'm glad.

She believed in you

from the very beginning.

She's so glad you succeeded.

Keep the key.

You'll be needing it very soon.

And this too,

a piece of chalk.

Two tasks remain...

...and the moon is almost full.

Be patient.

We'll soon stroll through

the seven circular gardens of your palace.
