|
Captain: | Hm? Don't believe what, darling?
|
|
Brigitta: | About Fraulein Maria
|
|
Captain: | Oh, Fraulein Maria! didn't I tell you what her note said? Oh I'm sure I did, she said she missed her life at the abbey too much, she had to leave us, and that's all there is to it. I think I'm brave enough to try some of that

Louisa: | She didn't even said goodbye
