Hurry up, they'll whip you.

Molly, come on, dear.

Get up.

Quick.

Come on, young lady.

They'll put you in the boob,

hurry up.

Come on.

Just Molly, please.

Where you goin'?

Come back here.

Sit down.

Hurry up.

(HAUNTING MUSIC)

Come along.

It's alright.

That's the way.

Don't be afraid.

Come along.

Come on,

I'm not going to hurt you.

See.

A bit further.

That's it.

It's Molly, isn't it?

I know it all feels

very strange,

but after a few days

you'll feel quite at home.

(Breathes heavily)

We're here to help,

and encourage you

in this new world.

Duty, service, responsibility.

Those are our watchwords.

Molly, keep still.

It's alright, it's alright.

It's alright.

No.

(BABY CRIES)

Over here. Sweep it over here.

To the door.

Come on, this way.

Push it towards me.

Eh, tracker's come back.

Eh, tracker girl.

Your dad's bringin' Olive back.

Catched her.

(DIDGERIDOO PLA YS)

Thank you, Moodoo.

Stand there, young lady.

Did you really think

you'd get away with it?

(Whimpers)

Now stop that crying.

See what Miss Doyle has here?

Olive, look at me.

You see this here?

The scissors?

Did she run away home?

She ran away

to see her boyfriend.

(Dog yelps)

Come on.

Let's see if those boys

at New Norcia

find you so attractive now.
