something about her
699
00:53:26,436 --> 00:53:29,583
- that you're dying to ask me?
- You go too far.
700
00:53:29,607 --> 00:53:33,644
You mustn't speak to me
in this familiar way, Mr. Dean.
701
00:53:34,049 --> 00:53:36,489
- It's unacceptable.
- I'll speak how I like.
702
00:53:36,513 --> 00:53:38,091
But I'll thank you not to speak
to me that way,
703
00:53:38,115 --> 00:53:40,126
if you want me to do another
stroke of work for you.
704
00:53:40,150 --> 00:53:41,260
I'm not one of your acolytes.
705
00:53:41,284 --> 00:53:44,097
- You really are a Godless man.
- [EXHALES]
706
00:53:44,121 --> 00:53:46,165
No wonder you're so unhappy.
707
00:53:46,189 --> 00:53:48,167
Well, I hardly see you jumping for joy,
708
00:53:48,191 --> 00:53:50,503
for all your close relationship
to God, your husband,
709
00:53:50,527 --> 00:53:51,605
as I believe you regard him.
710
00:53:51,629 --> 00:53:53,372
How dare you speak to me in this way!
711
00:53:53,396 --> 00:53:57,500
The Superior Sister.
Dilip Rai got that right.
712
00:54:04,474 --> 00:54:06,577
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
713
00:54:32,069 --> 00:54:33,146
You are insufferable.
714
00:54:33,170 --> 00:54:34,705
[MAN SCREAMING]
715
00:54:36,774 --> 00:54:39,485
[PHILIPPA] Sister Clodagh. The scythe.
716
00:54:39,509 --> 00:54:42,956
It's as though it jumped from his hand.
717
00:54:42,980 --> 00:54:46,079
It jumped from his hand.
718
00:54:50,487 --> 00:54:52,823
- Oh, good heavens.
- [CLODAGH] He needs stitches.
719
00:55:00,731 --> 00:55:02,542
Sterilize a needle,
Sister Briony, quickly.
720
00:55:02,566 --> 00:55:05,812
- No. No. No. Leave him.
- We can"t leave him.
721
00:55:05,836 --> 00:55:07,480
Sister Briony, sterilize a needle.
722
00:55:07,504 --> 00:55:09,616
Sister Ruth, whatever is wrong with you?
723
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,819
Sister Philippa, hold on to
the wound and stop the bleeding.
724
00:55:12,843 --> 00:55:14,399
On to the wound.
725
00:55:14,945 --> 00:55:18,257
That"s right. Good.
Keep your hand on the wound.
726
00:55:18,281 --> 00:55:19,593
Press down.
727
00:55:19,617 --> 00:55:22,328
I need to talk to you.
I... I need you to listen to me.
728
00:55:22,352 --> 00:55:24,430
Sister Briony. A needle, now, go.
729
00:55:24,454 --> 00:55:25,765
Yes. Yes. Sister Blanche.
730
00:55:25,789 --> 00:55:27,801
For God"s sake, Sister,
remember what I told you.
731
00:55:27,825 --> 00:55:29,569
You're putting everyone in danger.
732
00:55:29,593 --> 00:55:31,470
- We don't need your help.
- Sister Clodagh, please.
733
00:55:31,494 --> 00:55:33,439
I saw her face. Sister Clodagh.
734
00:55:33,463 --> 00:55:35,875
I saw her. I saw her. I saw her.
735
00:55:35,899 --> 00:55:37,476
- You"re imagining.
- I saw Srimati.
736
00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:38,678
- [CLODAGH] Enough.
- I saw her.
737
00:55:38,702 --> 00:55:40,647
You have to believe me.
You have to believe me,
738
00:55:40,671 --> 00:55:43,974
- I saw Srimati.
- Enough now. Stop it.
739
00:55:53,216 --> 00:55:55,648
It has started.
