• [last lines] 

  Little Boy : [standing at the gate of their home with a little girl and another little boy]  Nazi traitors.

  [angrily spits on the ground and walks away along with the other children] 

  Robert Cortot : [consoles Michele]  We must only begin to worry when they no longer spit at us, and our Nazi friends.

  Michele de la Becque : Our Nazi friends... you knew I'd come back didn't you.

  Robert Cortot : You would've been safe in England.

  Michele de la Becque : Being safe in this world isn't nearly as important as it used to be. I belong in France, and I belong with you. Oh, I won't be much help, I know; but you won't be quite as lonely.

  Robert Cortot : How could I be with twice as many people in my world?

  Michele de la Becque : Our world, and all of us in love.

  [leans in to kiss Robert but hears and sees a skywriting plane flying overhead] 

  Michele de la Becque : Robert look, that plane!

  Robert Cortot : It is not your American if that's what you think. This one has come every morning now for a week. The fools don't even shoot at him because he doesn't drop bombs. If the Nazis only knew how dangerous he is to them; if they only knew France.

  [the plane's skywriting reads 'COURAGE' and the scene fades to 'The End']
