[Craig is sound asleep in Philippe's old bed. Sounds of explosions and gunfire rage on outside, but he doesn't stir. A noise startles him awake and he grabs his gun barrel]
Sgt. Craig:
Who's there?
[It's the French Woman. She's cowering in a corner of the bedroom]
French Woman:
I'm sorry. I didn't want to disturb you, but I'm frightened. I just wanted to stay here, near someone.
Sgt. Craig:
Those are our guns, I think.
French Woman:
Mmm... It's not the guns, it's the planes! They were bombing till a moment ago, and you never woke up!
[She begins to sob]
French Woman:
I slept for a while, and I haven't been able to since. I really don't know how you can sleep with all that!
[She and Craig hear explosions outside]
French Woman:
I can't be alone. I just can't bear it anymore. Please... may I stay here? I won't bother you. Please!
[Craig lifts the covers of the bed, beckoning her in. Gratefully, she gets in beside him]
