Guest guest Posted November 14, 2000 Report Share Posted November 14, 2000 The scene takes place in a catholic boarding school: Mother Superior is talking to Madeleine, a young teen age girl who had received all her education in this catholic school. The Mother Superior asks Madeleine in a kind tone: "So, my dear Madeleine, you just have one more year to spend with us, and then you'll be in the world out there. What do you want do do with your life?". Madeleine refects for a few minutes and answers without hesitation :"I want to be a prostitute.". When she hears this , Mother Superior cannot believe her ears, she collapses on a chair, totally amazed and confused; then some anger starts to manifest " Madeleine, I cannot believe what you just said, after all the years of fine catholic education that the sisters imparted to you. You seemed to be so attached to the words of our saviour Lord Jesus Christ. I do not understand, it must be the work of the devil, or this village girl working in the kitchen that put these crazy ideas in your head. ....Maybe I've not heard properly what you said. Tell me again what you want to do in the future...Let's hear it!" Madeleine replies slowly, stressing each syllable " When I leave the boarding school, I want to be a pros-ti-tu-te !" This time Mother Superior has heard it very clearly, and she answers in a relieved tone "My dear God, I feel relieved from what you just said, I did not understand you properly the first time, I thought you wanted to become a protestant!"
