No! Oh!

You don't have to be so rough with her.

Can't you see she's frightened?

Let go of her!

I said, let go of her!

Are you alright?

I said are you alright?

Just go away and leave me alone.

Maybe I could help you.

Would you like me to get you

a glass of water or something?

I wish you'd speak to me.

I mean it might at least help

if you speak to someone.

What good will that do?

I'll be dead tomorrow.

Come and talk to me tomorrow.

What's your name?

What do you care?

I wouldn't ask ya if I didn't care.

My name is Nadja.

Nadja.

Oh, no, no.

Nadja look at me.

Carl.

Carl.

I've looked everywhere for you.

I thought you left with someone else.

Why didn't you tell me you were going away?

I didn't.

I could never leave you.

Do you remember the night I was

supposed to meet you by the old sea wall?

I waited all night for you.

When you didn't come, I went to your father,

he told me you hadn't returned.

We looked everywhere.

I was on my way to meet you.

I just turned off the old road,

and I felt that someone was following me.

I looked back, but there was no-one there.

I kept walking faster,

and all of the sudden,

I don't remember after that.

When I woke up, I was miles away.

I tried to get away, but they wouldn't let me.

Who?

A band of thieves who call themselves gypsies.

They took me everywhere with them.

I had to beg, and steal for them.

The leader took me for his own,

and I would still be his slave if,

If what?

how can I tell you?

- You must tell me. - I can't.

I can help.

It's no use.

No-one can help now.

How did you get here?

I can't tell you.

I'm so ashamed.

Tell me everything.

You're safe.

I'm here.

Tell me.

I don't know how to begin.

I had his baby.

No, don't look at me.

There were complications.

I was having trouble giving birth

and the police were after us.

They left me by the roadside.

The baby was born dead.

I was trying to bury his body when they caught me.

They said that I had killed my baby son.

It was an old woman who had watched me give birth,

but she lied.

Said that I had killed the baby

and was hiding the body.

I told the court the truth,

but they would rather believe the old lady.

They sentenced me to die for my crime.

The only crime is that he didn't

have a chance to live.

If you want to leave, I understand.

This brings us closer together.

I love you Nadja.

Nothing in the world could ever change

the way I feel towards you.

It wasn't your fault.

It was God's fault.

Sh. He mustn't hear you.

He has enough blame already.

I have to get you out of here.

There's nothing we can do now.

I have an idea.

You rest here.

I'll be back soon.

I don't know what I can do to help.

You know as well as I do that once

the decision of the court is handed down,

the death sentence is final.

It is then my job to take care of the

last rites of the church to these

poor devil's soul.

Please, Father, you must help me.

I've never asked a favor of you before.

If you'd help me this once,

I'd do anything for you.

Please Father.

You love her very much, don't you?

With my body and with my soul.

With your body, perhaps, but not your soul.

Your soul belongs to God.

I can't believe there is a God

when things like this can happen.

Don't ever say that.

Don't ever say that in my presence again.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean that.

Of course you didn't.

Of course, there is a way.

It's a very slim chance.

I can't guarantee that it will work,

but I could give it to her with the last rites.

What?

The potion.

I don't understand.

I could give her a potion with the last rites,

along with some wine.

After a short time, she will faint,

and it will look as if she is, her heart has given out.

What good will that do?

They will think that she has died.

I will pronounce her dead.

She will then be thrown on the cart

with the others to be buried.

That is when you must act quickly.

As soon as they've left the cemetery,

you must bring her back to me.

The potion only acts for a short

period of time.

If she doesn't receive the antecdote,

she will surely die.

I will give it to her,

and she will be yours forever.

How can I ever repay you, Father?

Your promise is my pay.

Anything Father.

I need your help.

Tell me.

Our church is poor.

Mother church has seemed to have not

to send us enough money to survive on.

Perhaps that is why we are looked down upon

by all of eastern Europe.

The lowest of all humanity has sent

for us to be executed.

It's not a very pretty island,

but it's all that we have,

always make the most of it.

A stench of death makes other people

turn their noses up at us,

and, in turn, turn their backs on us.

I need extra money.

It is not easily come by.

But, there is a need for bodies,

human bodies for medical study.

With your help, it would be much easier

for me to supply these bodies to medical schools.

What do you want me to do?

You have access to the records of who and how many

are sent to us daily.

If every day or two an entry were not made,

we could just make them disappear.

I don't know, Father.

You love this girl, don't you?

Yes.

Then it would seem to me there

would only be one answer.

Yes.

Yes?

Yes.

It's settled then.

Take this to Olga.

Tell her you must have it immediately.

Thank you, Father.

Thank God there are many ways to work little miracles.

How do I know it's from him?

Don't you recognize the handwriting?

It could be a forgery, you know it's happened before.

Well, it's not.

Come here.

I said come here.

Look at me.

Look into my eyes.

Yes, you're telling the truth.

One can't be too careful these days.

It's a very dangerous potion,

and I wouldn't want it to get into the wrong hands.

I've got my reputation to uphold.

When do you want it?

Right now.

You've got the money to pay for it, haven't you?

I don't do these things on credit.

Father Guru said I just had to give this to you

and everything would be taken care of.

Well, you can't blame me for trying, can you?

How do you want it?

What do you mean?

Liquid or powder?

I think we better make it powder.

It would be easier to handle that way.

Good. I've got the powder on hand.

The liquid would take too long.

You work over at the prison, don't you?

Yes, m'am.

I thought so, but I couldn't quite place you.

What do you want this stuff for?

For a friend.

A girlfriend?

Yes.

I thought so.

It's always a girlfriend with

you handsome young men, isn't it?

Where is she?

In prison.

What's she doing there?

The High Court sent her there.

What for?

Murder.

Who?

An infant.

Yours?

No.

You must love her very much.

How long have you been working at the prison?

Four years.

You must have a pretty important

position there by now.

Just what exactly do you do?

I'm in charge of the prisoners

after they arrive from court,

and after they're executed I see

that they're buried in the cemetery

behind the church.

How would you like to do a favor for me?

If I can.

I need blood.

Lots of blood.

I need it to carry on my experiments.

Without it, I. My experiments cannot be completed.

I've been using animal blood,

but it's not what I really need.

Sometimes I try to scoop some up

from the chopping block after the execution,

but I have to wait until you're all gone,

and by that time it's half-coagulated,

and full of mud and dirt,

and not suitable for my purposes.

If you could leave the bodies

after the execution for perhaps half an hour

there's sometimes enough blood in the veins

that I could drain.

I have a very ingenious way of doing this.

What do you say?

No.

No?

Yes.

What is your name, young man?

Carl.

Hmm. Carl.

Nice name.

Good day.

What about the potion?

Were you addressing me young man?

Yes, I asked about the potion.

What potion?

Oh, you know damn well what potion.

No blood, no potion.

Good day.

Oh, I see.

I thought that perhaps you would.

Is it a deal, then?

I guess it's going to have to be.

Not have to be.

Make up your mind.

Yes.

Give me your hand.

What for?

The contract.

What?

I never make an agreement without a contract.

I used to take people at their word, but not anymore.

You can't trust people these days.

It will only hurt for a moment.

There.

Now, you can't go back on your word.

Here is your potion.

Good day.

But.

Good day.

This is the house of God.

All present, acknowledge.

I.

There is life eternal in God.

All present, acknowledge.

I.

God is love.

God is love.

Bring in the first prisoner.

What is her crime?

Stealing.

Thou shalt not steal.

What is your name?

Mara.

God go with you my child.

Bring in the next prisoner, please.

What is his crime?

Peeping.

Peeping?

For shame, my son.

The privacy of others is not for you to see.

What is your name?

Hans.

God go with you, my son.

Stop hurting her.

Child.

What is her crime?

Murder.

Thou shalt not kill.

Do you wish to receive the last rites, my dear?

Say yes.

Yes, Father.

Then, you shall.

Igor prepare.

What is your name, my child?

Nadja.

Do you believe in God?

Yes.

Then, God will help you.

God will forgive you.

Go with God.

Go with God, my child.

Father, you've forgotten the brand of God.

She shall be punished.

In a short time she will be dead.

Isn't that enough?

Go with God, my child.

Not here, Carl.

Come inside with me.

What about Nadja?

Don't worry.

Everything will be alright.

In a few minutes she's going to be dead.

You said you were going to help.

Why didn't you give it to her?

Carl, take your hands off me.

You're not very observant, are you?

I gave Nadja the potion when I gave her the wine.

It was in my ring, see?

Everything will be alright.

But how?

You'll see.

I still don't understand how it will work.

There are others to be executed,

not just from today, but from the rest of the week.

By the time they get to Nadja,

everything will be alright.

You'll see.

Now come.

Nadja!

The girl is dead.

Her heart is stopped.

Leave her here with the rest of them.

Prepare them and let me know when you are ready.

There's no time to lose.

I'm gonna need some help.

Igor will help you.

Remember, be quick.

Time is of the greatest importance.

Why must we bury her with the rest?

Can't I claim the body and tell

them I wish to bury her?

You've already aroused too much

suspicion with your behavior.

No, it's best for all concerned

that she be buried.

That way, she's legally dead.

Won't she die from being buried?

She won't be able to breathe.

She'll surely die.

The potion I have given her

allows her to go without air

completely for 10 minutes.

If after that time you don't dig her up,

she will die, of course.

Get her back here as quickly as you can.

The anecdote must be administered within two hours.

Take her to her cell.

I'll see to it that we're not discovered.

Go, my boy, and try to show no emotion about the girl.

Do you think she'll be alright?

Of course she'll be alright.

Did we get to her in time?

Raise her head a little higher.

I'll give her a little more of this,

and everything will be alright.

Nadja!

Relax.

Relax just for a moment,

and everything will be alright.

How can I ever thank you, Father?

Your happiness will be my reward,

but we must be careful.

Nadja can stay in the upper regions of the tower.

Igor will take her food and water.

That will give us enough time to make other arrangements.

We can get out of here.

No-one would ever find us.

Did you forget your promise?

Promise?

The one you made to me.

I almost forgot about that.

Igor, take Nadja up to the tower

and show her where she can sleep.

We'll be there in a moment.

Don't be frightened, my child.

He won't hurt you.

He's your friend.

Nadja is very pretty, my son.

You're very lucky.

We'll get married and I'll take her

away from all this.

In time.

But, first you must help me.

I have an errand for you to run tonight.

Igor will help you with it.

You must leave for Rogoznica this evening.

But, that's 40 miles away.

You can be back by tomorrow night.

Where do I go?

To the medical school on the outskirts of Rogoznica.

I have written to Doctor Borgini,

he's expecting you there tomorrow.

He will have a sealed envelope for you.

I want you to open it in his presence,

and count the money that you'll find in it.

It should amount to three thousand Krona.

You may keep one hundred of it.

If he objects to your checking the amount,

show him this.

I used to trust, but, the times are changing,

and one must learn to change with them.

You see, we're in a rather delicate situation.

If we get short-changed, so to speak,

we have no way to correct the situation,

at least not in the eyes of the authorities.

I don't want to get into any trouble.

There won't be any trouble,

if you do exactly as I say.

Maybe I could take Nadja with me.

I know a place on the way to Rogoznica

where she should be safe.

Nadja is safe, right where she is.

What could be safer than a house of God?

Please? Let me take Nadja with me.

No.

She stays right here.

That way I can be sure that you'll

keep the promise that you made to me.

I always keep my word.

Talk comes cheap, my boy.

I've learned not to gamble on people's words.

I can't afford to.

I have learned in this mortal life of ours

that it is each man for himself.

I preach that God takes care of those

who believe in Him,

but I've discovered that all my years of believing

haven't helped me one bit.

Now, the church sends me little money to exist on.

And, even then, it doesn't arrive when it's supposed to.

So, I preach one thing,

and continue believing another.

Self-survival.

You will be well to remember this.

I've learned a lot of things

in the last few days.

I see my little disclosure has disturbed you.

Well, don't be.

You'll have to face many disappointments in your lifetime.

Nadja may leave the church

as soon as you've fulfilled your promise to me.

When will that be?

Shall we say three months?

And, then we can take another look at the situation.

I want you in the sacristy at sundown.

Don't be late.

You have a lot of traveling to do.

And, cheer up, Carl.

Look at the sunny side of life.

And how is Nadja?

Have you made her comfortable?

She is very beautiful, master.

Don't tell me she's stealing your heart.

Oh, oh no, No, master.

I do believe I've discovered

a brand new love in that ugly mass of flesh of yours.

Or, is it just lust?

I don't understand, master.

Of course you don't.

That's why I'm talking to you.

I can talk to you, and talk to you,

and you just look up at me

with that stupid smile of yours.

I can say anything to you,

you ignorant bastard, and you just smile.

Maybe God was kind to you when he made you this way.

Maybe God knew what he was doing

when he gave you to me to take care of.

Maybe God knew how desolate and forsaken

this place was when he gave you to me to talk to,

to keep me from going out of my mind.

Smile.

And, what a beautiful smile.

That's all you really have, isn't it.

Your smile.

Go.

You have work to do.

Nadja's very pretty, isn't she?

Yes, master. Yes, yes.

You've never loved a woman, have you Igor?

No, no master.

Perhaps Nadja could love you.

No, no, master

Well, how do you know?

Perhaps if you're very nice to her

she might reward you with a favorite.

Master?

You idiot.

God never intended for you to be loved by anyone.

You were made to serve me and only me, you understand?

Yes, yes master.

Go about your duties in the church.

And, Igor.

Tell me immediately if anyone comes into church.

We have work to do tonight.

- Do you understand? - Yes, yes master.

You really should be nicer to Igor.

He does love you.

You go to hell.

Do you know who you're talking to?

Yes, and I hate you.

I hate you and your pious ways.

Why don't you leave me alone?

I can't trust you alone.

I can't leave you alone.

If I don't watch over you, you'll destroy us both.

You go to hell.

If I do, I'll have to take you with me.

You'll never get rid of me.

I'm getting stronger.

Every year, I get stronger, and stronger,

and one of these days,

I won't be you anymore.

You can't get rid of me.

You need me.

Without me, you can't continue in your evil ways.

You need me to cover up your crimes.

Without me, you'd have no-one to say,

"Master, all those unfortunate souls

in front of the eyes of God and everyone."

I'll find a way.

And, when I do, I'll kill you.

I won't need you anymore.

You can't get rid of me.

You're afraid now, aren't you?

Who is it?

It's me master.

What do you want?

You told me to tell you when somebody come.

Somebody come.

I'll be right out.

Good day, Father.

Good day, my son.

I would like to be a mass goer.

Do you live in this area?

I've not seen you in my church before.

No, right this morning.

I'm on a fishing boat.

We need to repair, so we pulled into your port.

I've been to sea about three months,

I'm afraid I've neglected my God.

What is your name?

Lars. Lars Donnelson.

Are you a long way from home?

I have no home, really.

My home is at sea, or wherever I'm at.

When do you leave?

Tomorrow, if she's repaired in time.

Are your friends with you?

Friends?

Surely, you must have some friends?

No, Father. No. I came alone.

They would laugh if they knew I came to see you.

That's why I came alone.

Things have come to a pretty pass

when people laugh at God.

Come. You shall have your mass.

Igor. Igor!

Igor, I didn't hear you come in.

It frightened me.

Eat, I brought you some food.

I, I hope you like horse.

- It's all we have. - Don't go.

I have no-one to talk to,

and it gets lonely here.

Have you always lived in the church?

Church.

Have you always lived here?

You sleep here.

Where do you sleep?

Sleep?

Where do you sleep?

Down there.

Where down there?

Right down there.

I like the organ, it's nice.

Very expensive.

Then I have to get up when the rooster crows.

Cockadoodle!

Do you like it here?

I like it here.

Has Father Guru always taken care of you?

No.

How did you come here?

Here?

When did Father Guru begin to take care of you?

I come when I was 10 or 12.

We don't know how old I am.

Did you have a mother or a father?

Only Father Guru.

He's my father.

When did you come to the church?

Come?

How did Father Guru find you?

He found me.

Were you brought in to him, or?

I was on the steps down there.

He found me in a big bag.

Father Guru found me in a big bag.

My hands and feet were tied,

and it was very cold,

and it was raining,

and I was very cold.

Father Guru said I almost died.

I don't remember.

Father Guru teach me many things.

He teach me how to talk.

He teach me how to.

Why you ask me this thing?

I want you to be my friend.

Would you like to be my friend, Igor?

Igor, what are you doing?

What's the matter with you?

Now, get up off that floor,

and never do things like that in front of Him.

Haven't you work to do?

Then, you best go do it.

Master, master.

Igor, don't make so much noise in the church.

What is it?

Alright, tell her to come in,

and then wait in for me in the

sacristy until I call you.

Yes.

Oh, and Igor.

Tell Olga.

Yes, master.

Good day, my child.

Good day, Father.

Can I be of some assistance?

I need your help, Father.

If I can.

What is it?

It's not easy for me to talk about it, Father.

Surely you can tell me about it.

What's your name, my child?

Christine.

Oh, what a beautiful name.

Do you know where that name comes from, my dear?

No, Father.

What, from our Lord.

Christine, see?

I never thought of that.

you want to tell me about it?

Yes, Father.

I'm listening.

Well, I just find out about.

Well, I ran away.

Where do you come from, Christine?

Catania.

Well, how did you get here?

I walked.

All the way from Catania?

Yes, Father.

Why did you run away from home, my child?

I can't stay there now,

my father would kill me if he found out, so,

I ran away.

It's better this way.

I see.

And, who is the father, my child?

You know?

Of course.

What am I going to do?

There, there now.

Everything will be alright.

Does anyone know that you're here?

No, Father.

Then, we'll find a way.

You stay here for a moment.

I'll be right back.

Hello.

What's the matter, cat got your tongue?

Can't you speak when someone says hello to you?

I don't mean to be rude, but,

my mother told me never to speak to strangers.

No-one is a stranger once you've said hello to them.

That's true.

I never thought of that.

One can't have too many friends.

That's true.

One can have too few friends,

but never too many friends.

What's your name?

Christine.

What's yours?

Olga.

Some call me Nosferatu.

Nosferatu?

I've never heard that name before.

Yes, it means soul of darkness.

I like the name of Olga better.

So do I.

You have a lovely smile.

It's like sunshine.

Look at me Christine.

Look at me.

Are you sure you didn't see her come out again?

No, Carl, there's something wrong here.

Why won't Father Guru let us go away?

I told you.

I made a promise, and I have to keep the promise.

Why?

You want me to go back on my word?

No, but at least tell me what it is

you do for Father Guru.

Why did you have to go to Rogoznica?

I can't tell you that.

But, how do you expect me to

trust if you don't tell me?

I promised Father Guru I'd tell no-one.

Just leave everything to me.

Father Guru said we'll be out of here soon.

When?

Three months.

Three months is like a lifetime.

Not when we have each other.

As long as we're together, that's all that matters.

It isn't safe for us here.

That's nonsense.

It isn't nonsense.

I feel danger all around me.

That girl, she didn't come out of the church.

Somethings happened to her.

I feel it Carl.

Do you believe me when I say I love you?

Yes.

Then believe me when I say

everything's going to be alright.

Carl, I do love you so.

Oh, Carl.

Master, master a letter.

They're coming this afternoon.

Lay out my Brocade robes, Igor.

The Holy Father is coming from the mainland.

He's bringing someone to replace me.

That will never be.

You'll see.

I'll win.

You'll never get rid of me.

Tell Olga I want to see her right away.

Move, you idiot.

I told you to go!

God.

Welcome to Mortavia.

I was hoping to meet your boat,

but your message arrived only minutes ago.

Minutes ago?

That was sent days ago,

Thursday morning to be exact.

The post is always late.

I've told you that is my letters requesting money.

I've told you that for the past 15 years.

15 years?

Has it been that long?

My, my, how time does fly.

Yes, I still haven't received my money

for this quarter's upkeep of the church.

I was hoping to - Now, now.

We've only arrived moments ago

and already you're giving our young Father

here a very bad impression of the way

we run the business of our Lord,

and I distinctly heard you say, "My money."

Since when is the money of the church your money?

I am sorry, I didn't mean it in that way.

No, of course you didn't.

But, I've seem to have forgotten my manners,

which seems to be the rule of this island.

But, allow me to introduce you.

Father Guru, this is Father Polanski.

I brought him with me so I can show him his new home.

I wanted to talk with you about that.

I don't want to leave here.

And, I don't want to hear another word from you.

I will hear only what I want to hear.

Do I make myself perfectly clear?

It's a beautiful church.

When was it built?

It was built after the great plague of '38.

The island was almost completely

wiped clear of it's inhabitants.

So, it was decided by the Great Mother

council of churches to erect a permanent prison

in church to take care of those people

who had committed greater crimes.

In that way, we could give them the last rites

of the church, as well as, uh, execute them.

A vote was taken, but, uh,

unfortunately our religion lost.

So, the money was pooled and this was built.

I'm sure you can see the advantages of it.

In this way, the rest of middle Europe

is able to get rid of their undesirables.

How many prisoners does it accommodate?

I'm afraid I can't answer that, but, uh,

perhaps Father Guru could.

It can hold up to 100 when full,

but that is very seldom.

How long are they kept here

before they are executed?

Not all prisoners are executed.

Some of them are punished for lesser crimes

and then shipped back on the next boat to the mainland.

Yes, you see, we can't be responsible

for complications which might arise

from lesser punishments.

I'm afraid I don't follow you, Father.

Not all prisoners are executed.

Some of them merely have their eyes put out,

and their hands completely cut off.

Surely you at least treat their

newly acquired wounds before you ship them out.

Oh, no, we couldn't possibly do that.

We couldn't afford to give them free treatment.

It's enough for us to be able to

give them spiritual food for their souls.

You know, I'm really quite hungry.

That trip across the water's given me quite an appetite.

I don't know about you Father Polanski,

but I really must have a bite

before we look at the prisoners.

Any case, let us go inside.

The sun and I do not get along well.

But, of course Father. Follow me.

She is still here?

Yes, she is.

Do you think that's very wise?

She has nowhere else to go.

My boy, you must be very careful of idle gossip.

Humanity has a bad habit of thriving maliciously

on relationships like yours.

You remember what happened 12 years ago?

The island hasn't forgotten about that.

We've learned to accept her since then.

I think you're making a mistake, my boy.

Of course, I could have a word with my superiors,

and perhaps we could find a place

for her somewhere else.

Would you like that my boy?

She can't live anywhere else.

She needs me to take care of her.

She needs to have her fresh.

Fresh what, my boy?

Well?

Nothing.

Father Polanski, why don't you have a walk

around the church and have a look at your new home.

Father Guru and I have many things

to discuss in private.

Go, my boy, and we'll join you

in the vestibule in about 10 minutes.

Very well, Father.

I shall see you then.

Let us sit down.

I do not like what I see.

I beg your pardon, Father.

You are completely changed in your appearance

from the last time I saw you a year ago.

I see I was right in my suspicions.

While it was I who suggested

they replace you here.

I've felt this for over a year now.

Oh, my boy, I know how difficult

things are on this beastly island.

Believe me, you'll be much happier somewhere else.

But, I'm perfectly happy here Father Kopel.

This is my home.

My only home.

I won't leave here.

I can't leave here.

Oh, you're talking foolishly, my boy.

It's all been arranged.

- Olga and I. - Hah!

I thought we'd eventually get around to that.

Well, now that it's out,

since you can't in the open.

I have repeatedly asked you to get rid of her.

I have asked if you had sent her away,

but no, she's still here.

You deliberately disobeyed my orders.

That's another reason we're replacing you here.

It's been all I could do to

suppress the fact that she was your mistress,

all I could do to keep away from a scandal.

I thought you would finally come to your senses

and get rid of her, but now I see it is no use.

I can't just throw her out.

She can't exist in this world

without my sheltering her.

Ever since she was bitten by that animal

she hasn't been the same.

She must stay here.

She needs me, and I now need her.

Well, very well then.

I see I have no choice but to tell you.

You are leaving on the afternoon boat with me.

Father Polanski is taking away here.

I'm not going anywhere,

and neither are you.

I must talk to you.

Who are you, my child.

My name is Nadja.

Where do you live?

I live here.

You live here?

But this is no place for a young girl to be.

I have to stay here.

Why?

They don't want me to be seen.

Who doesn't?

Father Guru.

Father Guru put you here?

He and Carl.

Who is Carl?

Carl and I are to be married.

Then, why are you here?

Answer me, my child.

I cannot.

It would be too dangerous.

Then why did you call me?

Something evil is happening.

What do you mean?

There are people that come into the church from there.

I can see them.

But they come in, and they never come out again.

Perhaps they leave by some other door.

There is no other entrance to the church,

except that which I can see from there.

This is quite an accusation to make, my child.

Surely, you may have imagined this.

This is not my imagination.

A young girl was wearing this only yesterday.

This morning, Igor brought it to me as a present.

Who is Igor?

He's the hunchback who helps Father Guru.

He takes care of me, brings me food.

And, that is not all that I saw.

I saw something else that was horrible.

You must tell me.

I was half asleep when I heard Igor

talking to himself.

I got up and moved closer so that I could see,

and I saw Igor dragging the body of a sailor

who had come into the church only minutes before.

You must help us.

Us?

Carl and me.

We've got to get away from here.

Where is Carl?

Away again, for Father Guru.

For Father Guru?

Yes.

Carl won't tell me what it is he has to do

for Father Guru, but it's something awful,

that I know.

I haven't told you yet, my child,

but I am to replace Father Guru at this post.

He's scheduled to go back

with Archbishop Kopel this afternoon.

Oh, that's wonderful.

Thank God.

God does answer my prayers.

Yes, yes.

I shall tell Archbishop Kopel

about what you have told me, immediately.

I shall be back, and everything will be alright.

Now, don't you worry.

What is it?

What is it? What are you trying to tell me?

Tell me, why do you want me to leave for?

Why do you want me to go?

Igor, leave.

Go.

You shall be punished for this.

We have warned you.

Come.

Come with me.

Come, come.

Nadja.

Sorry Olga, I didn't hear you come in.

What do you want?

It's lonely here, one needs someone to talk to.

Is Father Guru still with them?

With them?

I don't understand.

Two more Fathers came into the church

to see Father Guru.

I didn't see them leave.

What did you see?

I saw them coming from my window there.

I know that they haven't left yet.

I've been watching.

I see, from there.

I see.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I talked to one of them.

He said he would be right back.

Where is he?

You look very tired, my dear.

You must lie down.

Don't touch me.

What's the matter?

What are you afraid of?

Everything.

This place.

I want to go away from here.

That would be impossible.

You're dead.

You do not exist.

Don't come near me.

You're not a very friendly little girl, are you?

I have no friends here.

That's not a very nice thing to say

after all we've done for you.

Wish I knew where Carl was.

Where is he?

You know where he is.

He's with Father Guru.

We helped you, and nothing comes free in this world.

That's why he's helping Father Guru.

To repay our kindness - What's he doing?

Well, that would be telling you, wouldn't it?

Please tell me.

You're a very pretty little girl.

You shouldn't wrinkle your brow like that.

Please go.

That was not a very nice thing to say to me.

I don't think that you're a very nice person.

I see.

I'm sorry you feel that way.

I had hoped we might be friends.

No, I'd rather not.

It was a very nasty thing to say to me.

I can help you.

You would do well to keep me as a friend.

So, you have chosen Igor for your friend.

That won't last long, my pet.

Should, should, you go away.

I can't go away, not yet.

Not until Carl comes back for me.

Don't worry, when Carl comes back,

he and I will go away together.

Why are you afraid?

They killed.

Igor look at me.

Did you see them kill anyone?

I have to go now.

Please don't leave me.

We must be careful.

If they see that you're helping me,

they won't like that.

When will you be back?

Soon.

You must be careful if you see him.

I'll be back.

I came to see you.

You have quite a view from this window.

Quite a view.

Perhaps too good.

Olga tells me you've been making

some strange accusations about us.

Is that nice, my girl?

You wouldn't be alive if it weren't for me.

Where are the other two?

What do you mean?

What other two?

The other two Fathers that came into the church.

My dear you have been standing

at this window too long.

The hot sun has made you to imagine

things that are just not true.

I didn't imagine it.

It's true what I saw, and I saw other things, too.

Nadja, I like you.

You have spirit.

We could be very good friends.

Now, I'm willing to forget what you've said just now,

if you will forget what you claim you saw.

Stay away from me.

Is that any way to talk to

the savior of your soul?

I like you Nadja.

I like you very much.

I thought I could trust you,

but I see that I was wrong.

Olga.

Olga, get his tongue.

Carl!

Oh Carl, I thought you'd never get back.

There now, everything's going to be alright.

We have to get away from here.

What's wrong?

They killed him.

Tell me everything that happened since I left.

You can't leave me here, they'll find out everything.

- Now, tell me. - Alright, then

I'll send for you as soon as I've found a place.

I don't believe you.

You're lying to me.

I can always tell when you're

- lying to me. - Alright then

I'm lying!

Can't you see I don't want you with me?

Can't you see I have no further use for you?

Haven't you been enough trouble

to me all these years?

It's her, isn't it?

What are you talking about?

It's that girl, isn't it?

You're out of your mind.

She won't go with you,

she hates you.

She told me so herself.

I don't want to take anyone with me.

I just want to be alone for a little while.

It'd be very easy to disappear

for a little while anyway.

We don't have to go.

Maybe they won't find out.

We can say that they did it.

No, you're wrong.

The time to disappear is now.

I'm going.

Goodbye, Olga.

If you're wise, you will disappear, too.

Stay away.

Stay away from me Igor.

Stay away.

Stay away from me!

Stay away from me!

Excuse me, could you tell me

where I can find Father Guru?

Thank you.
