"Howling Wind" "1931, between the Beaume River and the Vidourle River" "Nothing can separate us." "I'm yours." "You'll never leave me ?" "I'll always be yours." "Where is he ?" "Laurent, don't play innocent." "Why isn't Roc with you ?" "I have no idea." "I wish he was here, there's a lot of work to do." "How can you see running through the fog ?" "What are you talking about ?" "I'm only asking you where Roc is ?" "I don't have time for this." "I have enough on my plate." "Did you lose something ?" "What's going on ?" "This house is a mess." "It's past four." "Why didn't you clear the table yet ?" "I didn't want to wake you up." "Right." "You know I'm not too light a sleeper." "Did you see Roc ?" "Roc, Roc." "What do you want from him ?" "Answer me." "No, I didn't see him." "He must be downstairs." "I understand." "What are you doing in here ?" "Who allowed you to come in here ?" "Come here, you little snakes." "Answer me when I talk to you." "It was me." "You stay out of this, Catherine." "Mind your own business." "You, you... I'll put you in your place." "Idiot !" "Joseph !" "You take care of him." "Put him in the stable." "Lock him in." "You hurt me." "I hate you !" "I didn't want to hurt you." "Let me in." "You had no right to come in there like that." "I had every right." "To provide us with food and shelter, and save us from evil." "Amen." "If you may, for today, stay away, Devil." "Go see what she's doing." "Oh, so glad you could made it." "What's that face ?" "The one I'll wear from today on." "We buried dad less than six months ago, and you're already tired of wearing black ?" "I'm just tired of your ways, that's all." "Here, Helene." "Can you put this away ?" "is that it ?" "is that all you found ?" "This idiot thinks he's part of the family, and I should encourage him to ?" "He's not imagining." "He grew up here just like you." "So what does that change ?" "But he's an orphan and he'll always be an orphan." "You wouldn't say that had you any respect for your father's soul." "When they brought that poor child, he was only three months old." "I'll never forget that night." "And your father, he took care of him and loved him just as much as you." "Maybe even more, is that what's driving you crazy ?" "When dad was still here, he would have never dared to touch him." "Now you think you can do whatever you like." "But you're wrong." "I swear, you're wrong." "We'll see." "Take that next door, Helene, where it belongs." "From now on, you'll eat in the kitchen like all farmer boys." "Great." "No respect, who does he think he is ?" "Catherine, where do you think you're going ?" "To the kitchen." "I advise you not to move." "Don't move, huh ?" "You're out of your mind, poor William." "You're becoming increasingly disgusting." "Go sit down." "That's enough, now." "Are you both crazy ?" "You're acting like rabid dogs." "What happened to this place ?" "What happened ?" "This house has become a hellhole." "We can't do anything anymore, he thinks he's our master." "You can't go anywhere, not even breathe." "It's you who's provoking me." "" " And now you could---- -- l could spit in your face." "You're sick, poor thing." "I feel sorry for you." "I'm sorry for you because you're such a stupid wimp." "Go ahead, hit me !" "Look at him, he doesn't dare." "Have you had enough now ?" "Leave." "Go to your room !" "I don't want see you till tomorrow." "Now you can serve the food." "Stay with me, Catherine." "I'll always stay with you." "We have to put it back in its nest." "It was in." "No, it wasn't." "You're cheating." "I'll never play with you again." "Calm down." "Roc !" "Roc !" "Don't move, Catherine." "What happened, Robert ?" "Excuse me, sir." "This boy would kill me, if I let him." "This is going too far." "No, not on the chair, she'll get it all dirty." "Get up." "I'll kill you if you touch her !" "Hold him, Robert, don't let go." "It's Catherine Sevenier, Mom, she's hurt." "Catherine Sevenier, ah--ha." "So, who is he ?" "He's the orphan, can't you tell ?" "A real savage." "I don't want him here." "We'll take care of the girl." "Send the boy away, Robert." "No way !" "I won't leave without her." "Go back home, Roc." "No, I won't leave without you." "Go tell Helene what happened." "Go on." "Move, you're coming with me." "Easy, Robert." "Don't stay there as if you were made of stone, Isabel." "Bring some water, and tell Celeste to come down." "Go ahead, don't be afraid." "So, is he starting to like it ?" "At least now you can learn how to serve food." "You'll have to learn to share, little one." "He who goes up, must come down." "He who is down, must go up." "Catherine !" "Watch out, your dress, Catherine." "How are you ?" "Take a look, isn't she beautiful, my sister ?" "She's so much prettier than Landon's daughter." "Isabel is just a little girl, Catherine's a lady." "Where's Roc ?" "Roc, come over here." "Come say hello, it's all right." "Roc !" "Roc, is that how it makes you feel to see me ?" "Come on, what is it ?" "Stay." "I don't want to stay, you're just mocking me." "Leave me !" "I'm not mocking you." "You could at least look at me." "Why are you so dirty ?" "Don't touch me." "I'll be dirty whenever I want to be." "And I want to be dirty." "What happened, is he crazy ?" "Oh, you're here !" "What was the matter with you earlier ?" "Aren't you happy to see me ?" "We didn't see each other for more than two weeks." "Three weeks, Roc." "Please, say something." "What are you thinking about, right now ?" "A monkey." "A dirty little hypocrite in a doll's dress." "is that all ?" "Did you have fun ?" "Isabel and Olivier are very nice." "Now we don't need chairs to reach the table anymore." "I always won, anyway." "It was always you who made the rules." "Liar !" "You know, William invited Olivier and Isabel for Bastille Day." "Tell me, Helene, do you know where my lighter is ?" "No, for what ?" "Tonight." "Oh, here it is." "Move over, old man, can't you see I'm busy ?" "Drink and eat, for tomorrow you shall die." "Therefore, they will drink the blood of his rage, and the day will come that He will rise in anger." "Then will we survive ?" "Helene, could you come help me ?" "I say that one." "It's more elegant." "I find it a little sad." "So then wear the other one and why bother asking me ?" "Look at this." "Tell me, do you think the other one is better ?" "Put it on, let me see." "I look like an old maid." "What are you doing here ?" "It's not a good time, get out." "l just wanted to---- --Out !" "So, is it good, or not ?" "I can't tell anymore." "Helene... help me." "How can I help you ?" "Don't you think I have better things to do ?" "What can we do ?" "I'm too busy to wash your pants." "Just the shirt will take all day." "Your hair, yes, your hair." "No, don't be difficult now, or I won't do it." "And you can take that frown off, too." "What frown ?" "I'm not wearing a frown." "Yes you are, and you have been for a long time." "You should take it off." "You're hiding all these things behind it." "No !" "I'm not going to drown you." "You think Roc is not coming ?" "Who knows ?" "Maybe he was held up." "Yes, I was wondering about the same thing." "This place is beautiful, in any case." "The house seems so empty." "I think it's scary, so far away from everything." "May I ?" "Olivier, shall we ?" "Roc..." "Not thirsty." "Look at me." "Look how shamelessly she's rubbing against him." "If she does that in the light of the day what would she do in the dark of the night ?" "Oh, please..." "Thanks." "Isabel, would you like some more wine ?" "No, Thanks." "I would like some more." "Come on, dance with me." "Leave me." "That's so silly, do you want to stand there all night like a statue ?" "Leave me, I told you." "You could try at least." "One, two, three." "One, two, three." "See, it's not that difficult." "Well, it's not as easy as it seems." "Did he hurt you, Olivier ?" "He's fine." "Maybe that will teach you to mind your own business." "Oh, and now they insult us, too." "I want to leave immediately." "No one insulted you." "It's all your fault, anyway." "You shouldn't have talked to him." "Now William will lock him away." "I don't want that to happen." "I didn't say anything." "Well, whatever happened, happened." "Maybe next time you'll know how to make use of your fists." "For now, be careful." "I'm sorry, it's true, what I said was stupid." "Forget about it." "I'll forgive you this one time." "Roc, it's me." "Leave me alone." "Roc !" "Take your new friends, and leave." "I'll come in but you're not going to kick me out, are you ?" "Do have the keys ?" "Wait." "Help me." "Did anybody see you ?" "No one." "What are you thinking about ?" "I'm wondering how to get revenge on William." "I'll wait as long as it takes, I don't care." "I hope he doesn't die before" "Shut up !" "I don't want you to talk like this." "It's blasphemy." "The revenge wouldn't give you the same satisfaction as me." "He's already here ?" "Yes, he comes earlier and earlier every day." "They're getting along very well, it seems." "She's got him wrapped around her finger, as they say." "Just like she has everyone else." "They should really make a decision." "Catherine Landon." "That's not bad, Catherine Sevenier Landon." "I'm sure you would like that a lot." "Go see what they're doing." "What are you doing here, Helene ?" "Can't you tell ?" "I'm hanging up the laundry." "Go hang it up somewhere else." "I've had enough of you spying on me !" "I'm very sorry." "Get out of here." "You dirty bitch !" "What's going on, Helene, what's wrong with you ?" "What's wrong ?" "Look at what your sweet little friend did to me." "I didn't, she's lying." "I just asked her to leave." "Oh sure !" "You're gonna leave now, whether you like it or not !" "No, don't !" "Leave me alone !" "Get off me you little" "Catherine !" "What are you doing ?" "I think it's better for me to leave." "Very well, leave, that'll be perfect." "Catherine, Catherine, please." "I can't stand someone spying on me." "I just... I know you're gonna hate me now." "You'll never come here again." "I could never hate you." "Never !" "Are you alone ?" "What do you think ?" "Where is Roc ?" "He's working with Joseph." "Helene, my sweet lady." "Are you still upset about earlier on ?" "Please, I want to tell you something important." "Can you keep a secret ?" "I need advice." "Olivier just asked me to marry him." "I gave him an answer." "Before I tell you what I said, tell me what you think." "What would have been the right answer ?" "Did you accept ?" "Yes, I did." "Was that right ?" "What do you want me to tell you ?" "Do you love him ?" "Of course I do." "Really ?" "Why do you love him ?" "What a question." "I love him, isn't that enough ?" "No, it isn't, tell me why." "Because he's handsome." "Not good." "He knows so many things." "Not good." "I don't know, I like him." "I like all of him." "I love all of him." "That's of no interest." "You're annoying me." "You love all of him, he loves all of you..." "So, where's the problem ?" "Everything." "Deep in my soul, I know it's wrong." "I don't understand anything anymore." "Helene, do you have strange dreams sometimes ?" "Dreams you would prefer to forget ?" "Yes, I do." "I had one of those last night." "I want to tell you my dream." "No, I can't stand listening to people's dreams." "But, it's really" "No, I don't want to hear it." "All right." "You know, Helene, if I was in heaven, I'd be unhappy." "No doubt." "You would be unhappy anywhere." "That's not what I meant." "Last night I dreamed I was there." "And I was crying and begging them to bring me home." "I was so---- l told you, I don't want to hear it." "That's all." "They were so upset about it, that they threw me down, head first." "I woke up, crying tears of joy." "What I mean is... I'll marry Olivier..." "Wouldn't that be a terrible, after what William did to Roc ?" "Maybe my fate is to be with Olivier, rather than in heaven." "I can't say that I love Roc." "It's deeper than that." "You see, I am Roc." "He's always there for me, always..." "Even here" "What is it ?" "They're coming in." "Go to your room, I don't want William to find you here." "Listen to me, if I marry Olivier, I could give Roc some money." "Your husband's money ?" "Do you know what you are saying ?" "What's so bad about it ?" "I don't think Olivier would mind." "Olivier wouldn't mind what ?" "For her to think about things." "Are you gonna keep that to yourself ?" "I can't promise anything." "Come to the table." "William is getting upset." "Did you find him ?" "I didn't find anything, no man, no horse." "They must be making fun of me whistling out there." "Maybe he's a little deaf." "Go eat something." "The gate is still open." "I'm sure the thunderstorm will bring him back." "What the hell is he thinking ?" "I think that..." "Forget it." "Forget what ?" "Nothing, nothing." "Helene..." "Go eat." "I need to talk." "I have to talk to him." "You are both starting to piss me off." "Oh well." "Catherine." "No, stay here !" "Roc ?" "Roc !" "Roc." "Aren't you done with your games ?" "Move aside." "I move when I feel like it." "Do you think you make the rules in this house ?" "You're out of your mind." "Watch out, Helene." "I'm watching you." "I'm watching all of you." "Roc." "Tell me where you put it, you stupid bitch." "Do you think I'm blind ?" "To hide things behind my back like that." "But I have eyes, I can see." "Ah, I knew it." "And now you're going to tell me you didn't know where it was." "I swear to you" "Don't lie !" "You are all liars." "You're all her accomplices." "You're the worst of all." "I know that you let Catherine leave with that bastard." "I swear, I'll cut your face up in little pieces." "Please, that would be very unpleasant." "I just used this knife to clean the fish." "I'd prefer, if you cut my throat, instead, if you don't mind." "You're not being that difficult, especially for someone with such a big mouth." "Come on, open it." "No way, I prefer dying than taking that dirty knife into my mouth." "Please, forgive me, Helene." "Ah, my stomach hurts." "I can't see anything." "Go to sleep." "I can make you an herbal tea if you like." "Do you know what time it is ?" "You'll get sick." "Sit down, I'll dry your feet." "And your dress." "I'm fine." "I don't need anyone." "Perfect, there's some milk that you can heat up." "I'll be in my room, in case you change your mind." "Catherine, Catherine." "is he back ?" "He's dead, and in hell, I hope." "Go to sleep now." "Come on." "Don't worry about it, I've got her." "Hold yourself up, I don't want to carry you." "Come on." "I looked for him everywhere, you know." "Why didn't he come back ?" "Calm down." "I looked everywhere..." "I tried to find him..." "Can you hear the birds sing for him ?" "You have fever." "I'll call a doctor." "You need to sleep." "Are you gonna bring him back, Helene ?" "Yes, yes, sleep now, sleep." "It's already five ?" "Yes, darling." "At your age, aren't you ashamed ?" "What time is it ?" "Five o'clock." "Can I have that ?" "I would like you to surprise me." "You haven't gotten up from your desk in three months." "I wish I could." "However, I prefer to know where our money goes." "So, are we more rich, or more poor ?" "Guess." "I miss you." "What counts is, that you love me." "Right ?" "After all the time that you had me waiting." "What's three years ?" "I would have waited my whole life, had it been necessary." "Maybe you're still waiting... to have me completely." "Don't provoke me." "I don't know." "Helene ?" "Don't you recognize me ?" "It's not you." "Are they there ?" "Of course." "Tell Catherine that I'm here and I want to see her." "I can't." "You know that---- l know, they've been married for three months." "I know everything." "Go ahead, what are you waiting for ?" "What should I tell her ?" "You tell her what I said, exactly what I said." "And that I'm not going to let Olivier Landon kick me out like last time." "Go ahead, what are you waiting for ?" "Okay." "Catherine, somebody wants to see you." "Who is it ?" "What do they want ?" "I don't know." "All right, mark the page, okay ?" "Someone from the village ?" "Yes, this boy, who used to live with us." "Remember ?" "The one who ran away from the farm ?" "You could have said so, why all this mystery ?" "Catherine loved him a lot." "I didn't know how she would react." "Olivier, he's back." "It's Roc, he's here." "All right, he's back, no reason to strangle me." "Helene, let him in, will you ?" "You know Olivier, Isabel." "Don't make that face, Olivier." "Three years went by, you can become friends now." "Catherine, please." "My wife wants me to be a good host." "I'll do whatever makes her happy." "Me, too." "Have a seat." "Come, Roc." "For a moment, I thought I was dreaming again." "I can't believe that I'm seeing you again, touching you, talking to you again." "I'm not sure if I can ever forgive you." "You were absent for three years, without any sign of life." "Without even thinking of me." "And you thought about me ?" "I heard about the marriage, Catherine." "I had a plan, too." "Simply to see your face." "To surprise you." "To see you smile politely." "And then take my stupid revenge." "Get it over with." "However, the way you greeted me, made me change my mind." "Don't ever dare to greet me any other way." "I have to get up early tomorrow." "I'm sure this is not the end of your trip, is it ?" "You're right, I should leave." "Where are you going ?" "Let me go." "Olivier ?" "Olivier, are you sleeping ?" "I'm trying to." "If you stopped bothering me I could." "No, I can't." "Talk to me." "Talk to me, so I know I'm not dreaming." "Please, calm down." "I have a headache." "You always say that when there is the slightest problem." "I didn't know you were such a wimp." "I'm happy as can be, and you have a headache." "If you really loved me, you would be as happy as I am." "Or at least you'd pretend." "I don't see why I should be happy that some farmer boy who ran off comes to visit after three years." "A farmer boy ?" "You think you're so important, so that's how you see him." "Catherine, I'm sorry." "Too late, Olivier, you just said exactly what you shouldn't have." "Answer me, Helene." "Did I ever complain about Isabel living here, as gorgeous and pretty as she is ?" "Hold it, what are you talking about ?" "It's about Olivier." "He and his ego are whining in his bed because I found Roc again, after three years." "Am I jealous when you tell me about Isabel's hands, her hair, her face... ?" "And I didn't even tell Olivier what I was thinking." "What did you think about Roc ?" "Roc, he certainly changed." "You mean transformed, right ?" "If you want." "You are not planning to impose Roc on your husband, are you ?" "He couldn't take that." "Oh, "till death do us part," isn't it ?" "No, I am so certain of Olivier's love." "He'd rather get killed than go against me." "You really think so ?" "I wouldn't be so sure." "What happened tonight is the story of my life." "You don't know what I had to endure." "Olivier will be sorry for his attitude problem." "That's all over, now." "I can take anything." "In fact, I'm gonna go and make peace with him right away." "Good night." "And thanks." "What are you doing here ?" "I was about to unleash the dog." "I took you for a thief." "This is not a good time to come collecting money." "But the Lord shall protect he who returns." "I haven't felt protected for a good while, now." "A good while ?" "Three years, too long to be gone." "The boss needed you." "I want to see." "" " Shit !" "" " You lost." "One more game ?" "With what ?" "You lost." "Give me a chance, I give you my word." "We know how much that is worth." "It's the dough that we're interested in." "" " Good--night " " Let's play one more." "I'll have the money tomorrow." "What is it ?" "Can't we have five minutes of peace ?" "Looks like you've come a long way in these three years." "You, too." "If you came here to make fun of me, you'll regret it." "Goodbye, William, we'll leave you with your friend." "Wait a minute." "How long are you planning to stay ?" "For a while." "And where are you planning to sleep ?" "Here." "Here ?" "You must be joking." "This is still my house." "Continue the game." "Want to play with us ?" "At five per game, you'll have some fun." "Thank you, some other time maybe." "I'll be right with you, Isabel." "Thank you very much, how nice of you." "I've had enough of that girl." "Who does she think she is ?" "Catherine ?" "Are you talking about her ?" "What happened ?" "Nothing." ""l'll be right with you, Isabel."" "She's so pretentious, I could kill her." "That's not a such bad thing to say, no need to get so upset." "Damn it !" "Here, that would be a nice hat for you." "Tilted to the side." "Like that, that would be so cute." "Stop." "I hate being touched." "Hey, why are you so moody in the morning ?" "Well, maybe I have a reason." "You do ?" "So, tell me." "I can't stand the manner in which you dismiss me." "I dismiss you ?" "Like when ?" "Yesterday, for example, in the park." "And it wasn't the first time." "Oh, I'm sorry about that." "I didn't think my conversation with Roc could have any interest for you." "Well, you're wrong." "Everything he says is of interest to me." "It's ridiculous how you're claiming him for yourself." "You're not the only one who has the right to be loved." "I hope I misunderstood." "Are you trying to say that you want him to love you ?" "Why not ?" "is that forbidden ?" "I love him." "I love him more than you will ever love Olivier." "I hope this is not true, I can't believe it." "Well, it is true." "And if you didn't try to get between us all the time, I'm sure that he could love me back." "You don't know Roc." "You couldn't deal with him." "Avoid him." "That's the only advice I can give you." "And it's coming from a friend." "Thanks for the advice and for your friendship." "You can keep both to yourself." "Very well if that's how you want it." "But I will have the last word." "There you are, Roc." "Speak of the devil." "We were just having an argument about you." "Shut up !" "No !" "You won't be able to say that I dismissed you." "Guess what, Isabel is crazy about you." "She was just telling me not to get between you two." "Stop, you don't have the right." "Say that I'm lying, if you dare." "You see, Roc, you can become Olivier's brother--in--law any time you want." "I think you're putting ideas in her head she doesn't want to tell me, not now, anyway." "What's wrong, Isabel ?" "Isabel ?" "What's happening ?" "Isabel, open up." "She looks like a doll, but she's a lot like her brother." "She's gorgeous, isn't she ?" "Not as gorgeous as you are." "You are so sweet when you get sentimental." "I mean it." "William !" "William ?" "William ?" "What is it ?" "What time is it ?" "is that where you sleep now ?" "No, I was doing something until late." "Where the hell did it go ?" "What is that ?" "Nothing, nothing." "Did you miss me ?" "A visit between shopping ?" "William, he has to leave, the sooner the better." "You want him to ?" "I thought you loved him so much." "If he stays here, it's all over." "Throw him out." "Oh, you think it's that easy." "When Catherine left, you just dropped me to go to the Castle." "Now that Mr. Landon is afraid to lose his wife, you come to me." "I'm not asking you for a favor." "You can do without Roc, now." "Nope, guess what ?" "Now we love each other." "It's too late, Helene." "He can do whatever he wants." "What does that mean ?" "This is your property." "Not anymore." "He doesn't even want to know how much I owe them." "He doesn't care, he's been doing the bookkeeping." "Never misses a number." "I'm sure we can arrange something, if it is only a question of money." "Oh, that's it." "Mr. and Mrs. Landon, of course." "Maybe then they could employ me, so I can pay off my debt." "That's not what I was trying to say." "Well, you did." "Get out of here !" "Go back to your master's !" "You poor bastard !" "Did you think about what I told you ?" "Yes, I thought about it." "I would do anything... just say the word." "The word." "Having fun, Roc ?" "You'll come with me right now." "Let me go !" "It has nothing to do with you !" "I told you a hundred times to leave Isabel alone." "If you really love her, I would do anything for you to marry her, but if you don't, I won't allow you to keep flirting with her." "You can't tell me what to do." "You treated me in a terrible way." "Did you think I forgot ?" "Maybe you thought I was hanging out somewhere in the park, my arms crossed, not thinking of vengeance." "Well, that's not how it was." "You offered me Isabel on a silver platter." "Thank you very much for that." "I'll try to get the most out of it, I assure you." "But don't pretend that you're jealous." "That's what the problem is ?" "That's great !" "I thought I had finally found you again." "I felt safe." "But you couldn't bare to see me happy, you had to ruin everything." "Go ahead, try to hurt Olivier, if that amuses you." "He loves his sister so much." "You found the best way to hurt me." "Did you stop talking because you heard me come in ?" "Since when are you spying on me ?" "Your presence is no longer appreciated in this house." "Leave." "Very well... make me." "Helene, tell Robert to come." "No, that's too easy." "If you want to throw somebody out, you do it yourself." "Otherwise you sit down and have a friendly conversation." "No, I won't let you out." "I wish you only the best." "But him..." "How will he deal with it ?" "Enough." "Don't try to protect him." "Go away, go away !" "Go away, get out !" "I'm going crazy, Helene." "Go find Olivier." "Tell him I'm sick, because of him." "Now, all is lost." "Madame ?" "" " Madame ?" "Still nothing ?" "No." "All right, leave that here, I'll take care of it." "You finish up here." "Catherine, that's enough now." "You've been in there for two days without eating." "You'll be sick." "Go away, I'm not hungry." "Stop your fooling around, open up." "Go look for my scarf, I'm cold." "Then you'll open up ?" "Yes, go ahead." "Oh, look at you, go get dressed immediately." "Even better, I'll leave for good." "Then you have more time to take care of Catherine." "I don't have time for your nonsense." "I'm serious." "Nobody ever wants to hear anything here." "Sooner than you think, I will be with Roc." "That's enough." "I'll be with Roc, lying in his arms." "And if Olivier wants to avoid a scandal, he will have to approve our marriage." "You read too many novels." "Go and get a scarf from Catherine's room." "is she still not going to eat ?" "Well, at least she talked to me, that's something." "I'll go and talk to her." "Wait a little bit for that." "Wait for what ?" "I can't leave her alone like this." "Believe me, don't go along with her game." "Isabel ?" "Isabel ?" "We have to get her back." "It'll be impossible." "We have to do something." "There must be a way to find her." "Oh, she does what she wants anyway." "Well, she's your sister." "Don't give up on her like that." "I don't want to speak about that anymore." "Don't mention that again." "Go ahead, throw them." "Shut up." "You lost." "Better luck next time." "You can't be serious." "I'm here." "Well, I can see that." "What are you doing here ?" "I told you I'd go all the way." "Are you keeping the dice warm ?" "See, I kept my promise." "I left everything behind." "I'm free, Roc !" "I'm exhausted." "I thought I'd never make it." "Spare us your whining." "I want you to go back to where you came from, and fast." "Are you crazy ?" "Can't you tell she's freezing ?" "Come, Miss Isabel, have a glass of wine with me." "Mind your own business, will you ?" "Here, drink and be quiet." "You don't have the right to treat me this way, this is my house." "Oh, really, why don't you pay your mortgage first ?" "Now shut up and drink your bottle." "So ?" "How much longer are you gonna stare at me with your puppy--dog eyes ?" "Are you drunk, Roc ?" "Didn't you hear what I just told you ?" "Oh, yes, I did." "That I'm messing up my only chance to be introduced into the right circles, isn't it ?" "Your stupid brother will never forgive me." "No more house, no family, nothing..." "Did you already think of that ?" "I did." "That means you're even dumber than I thought." "Get the hell out of here if you want to do me a favor." "Otherwise, I'll skin you like a rabbit." "You're out of your mind." "Please, help me find my way out of here." "At this hour ?" "That doesn't make any sense." "Why don't you wait until the morning ?" "is there a room where l could sleep ?" "Yes, come this way, and be quiet." "You can stay here, no one ever comes in here." "But be quiet... so they don't hear you." "Get out." "If you ever come back to this room, I'll kill you !" "Here's your room." "What are you gonna do ?" "Isn't that what you wanted ?" "What the heck are you doing ?" "Free the way." "I'll free the way over your dead body." "How is she ?" "I have nothing to say to you." "Get out of the way." "Where is she ?" "Helene !" "What did you do ?" "Calm down, stop fussing like this." "Why is she looking at me like that ?" "Nobody's looking at you, that painting has always been there." "No, I'm sure her eyes moved." "Don't be silly, it's the light that changed, nothing else." "Helene, don't leave." "I'm afraid of being alone." "I'm right here." "I'll go get your medication." "She wants to bring me back there." "I almost died because of this." "So be it." "But everything's changed." "There's nothing left." "Only darkness." "I'm getting cold." "Looks like you're enjoying yourself." "Are you blocking the door ?" "No, I'm just trying to avoid surprises." "What do you mean ?" "What are you doing there ?" "Oh, just shining an old family gem." "One bullet in the stomach and that to widen the hole." "He won't even have time to think before dying." "I will have to be the one to do it." "We would've gotten it over with a long time ago, if we weren't both such wimps." "You should go to sleep." "You're not in a state to do anything." "I didn't drink anything the whole day." "Look at my hand, it's not trembling." "We're made out of the same stuff." "But you, you'd never dare." "Why not ?" "He took everything I had from me, too." "Yeah, everything, and more." "And if he could take more from you, you'd give it to him." "You'd give him everything." "Not anymore." "It's over." "Now, do you want to die, or do you want him to die ?" "I wanted him to die slowly, so I could watch him suffer, the way he made me suffer." "He will suffer." "On that, we agree, we're on the same side." "There you go." "Stay or leave, but be quiet." "You want to watch, don't you ?" "No !" "Don't kill him !" "Go wipe that up." "I am here." "I ran all the way here, I'm hurting everywhere." "Help me to get changed, pack my bags and get a car as soon as possible." "That's out of question, not in the state you're in." "I'll go and tell your brother." "No, not that, I don't want him to see me." "I'm hurting." "All right, come with me, I'll take care of you." "No, I won't move from here." "Move over a little." "Here, hold this." "Who did this to you ?" "Guess." "I pushed him to his limits." "Catherine is lost, he killed her." "He kills everything he puts his hands on." "That's what I told him yesterday, and here's the result of it." "I'm not complaining, on the contrary." "That's what gave me the strength to leave." "William was lying in the kitchen, his guts spilled all over." "I don't want to hear anymore." "You have to calm down, I'll prepare your room." "No, don't try to hold me back, Helene." "I know what I need to do." "That's it, like you knew last night you had to follow Roc." "Don't talk to me about this, I don't want to think about this." "I'm cured." "Healed ?" "You're crazy." "You all are here." "I am the only one with a little bit of sense." "Do what I say." "I'm afraid." "I'm afraid that he'll come back to get me." "Hurry." "Helene, is that you ?" "Catherine..." "Catherine..." "There's no more Catherine... you killed her." "You've succeeded." "You're so strong." "For how long are you planning to keep living after my death ?" "I'll wait." "I'll wait until we're both dead." "Why should I care if you're suffering ?" "I've been suffering already for all this time." "Just wait, soon you'll have your peace." "Then you can still be happy with someone else." "Don't try to torture me you just want me to be as miserable as you are." "You must be crazy to tell me that when you're about to die." "Don't forget that I'll always remember the day you left me." "You know you're lying when you say that I killed you." "You deserved your fate." "You killed yourself." "Waste your last breath on crying, blaming me and hanging on to me." "That won't get you anywhere now." "You've deserted me, too." "Forgive me." "I'll forgive you." "I forgive you, if you kill me." "When I see that face, those eyes." "No, don't leave me, not now." "It's the last time... the last time." "Be quiet, Catherine, be quiet." "I'll stay." "Take good care of her." "Helene..." "Dear little sweetheart, you can sleep now, dream as much as you want." "Sleep... you'll finally have peace now." "Roc ?" "Roc..." "let me in." "Let me in... I got lost... please... I like it better at home." "I want to come in..." "Let me in." "" " Let me in." "Roc ?" "" " Roc !" " Roc !"
