334 CU. Mme Doniel is sitting in the Judge's chambers. During the interview, she is very nervous and continually figets with her scarf and shifts her eyes.

MME DOINEL: If it came to that we could take him back, but he'd have to promise to change completely. If only you could scare him, Your Honor.

335 CU of the Judge.

,

JUDGE: But that's not my role, Madame.

336 CU of Mme Doinel.

MME DOINEL: But we can't control him.

337 CU of the Judge.

JUDGE: Perhaps you exercise control, too . . . intermittently. Tell me, is it true that for an entire weekend he was left . . . alone at home?

338 CU OF Mme Doinel.

MME DOINEL (pausing a moment): My husband is busy with an automobile club . . . It's possible we left the child alone sometimes . . . He hates sports - he'd rather stay shut up for hours at the movies and ruin his eyes.
