VI - Leaving all Behind

edit
Amicia: [to Hugo] Wait... You see that tree? I'm sure I can reach it faster than you.
Hugo: Now? Why?
Amicia: Because you're a little chicken.
Hugo: I'm not! You are!
Amicia: Show me then! Three... Two... One... [after Hugo cheats and runs toward the tree first] Hey!
Hugo: You're... going to be... a chicken!

[After Hugo won the race]
Hugo: That was a good race!
Amicia: [touching her head with a hint of pain from her wound] It... was...
Hugo: It's still hurting you...
Amicia: No... What hurts the most is... that I'm a chicken now...
Hugo: But a nice chicken!
Amicia: You're too kind.
Hugo: Next time, I'm letting you win!
Amicia: Oh no... next time I'll crush you.

VII - Felons

edit
Arnaud: [to Amicia] I know where your island is. All you must do is keep me alive until we get there.
Hugo: Amicia! Come! COME AND SEE!
Amicia: [to Hugo] I'm coming!
Amicia: [to Arnaud] Be very careful. This is a constant reminder that I should kill you.

Arnaud: Let's go. We're not here to enjoy the view.
Amicia: Tell me where we're going first.
Arnaud: To get your boat. I know someone.
Amicia: Who?
Arnaud: A smuggler. Discreet ship. Fast. What you need.
Amicia: Great. More felons.
Arnaud: Yes. Get used to it. This is your life now. So, If you want to get to La Cuna after the mess you made, it's that boat or a ten mile fucking swim.
Hugo: [excited and happily] I can't wait to get on a boat.
Arnaud: [to Amicia] Ah, you see that? That is the right attitude...
Amicia: [muttering to herself] "That is the right attitude"...

Arnaud: [to the rats] Goddamn… pieces of shit!
Amicia: [to Arnaud] You all right? No bite?
Arnaud: I'm good! Except I'm stuck and they're looking at me like I'm a piece of roast meat!
Amicia: [with lower voice] Hugo… We should leave now.
Hugo: What?! Why?!
Amicia: He's dangerous!
Hugo: So are you! And I'm even more dangerous… But we need him.
Arnaud: Hey! I need you down here!
Amicia: I... All right, fine.

Hugo: [very excited] WHOOO! I'm a pirate!
Arnaud: [after Hugo almost falls into the sea, but Arnaud grabs his arm] Hey, where 'you going, sailor? You all have a death wish in this family or what?
Hugo: [says nothing]
Arnaud: It's alright. I've got you.
Hugo: [very excited] TO LA CUNA!

XIII - Nothing left

edit
Hugo: She's never coming back.
Amicia: I know...
Hugo: I... I wanted... to tell her... A lot of things...
Amicia: Me too... But she knew. Everything, already... You were her greatest gift. She loved you the way you are. The way she made you...
We will live. And we will heal. The scars... We keep them. So that we don't forget. So that we can accept. Until they don't hurt anymore.

XIV - Healing our Wounds

edit
Hugo: Are you alive?
Arnaud: What d'you think?
Hugo: Dead people don't talk...
Arnaud: Good catch. Hey... I'm sorry for... well, everything. Thank you for getting your sister to help me. You saved me.
Amicia: Look who finally decided to be nice...
Arnaud: Don't make me regret it.
Amicia: The war's over, Arnaud. We've all earned a rest. You should try it too.
Sophia : HEY! SHIP!
Amicia: Damn, the Count!
Lucas: It's coming fast.
Arnaud: You see? That's the thing with war... You don't get to decide when it's over.

XV - Dying sun

edit
Amicia: It's ruined... It'll never sail again.
Arnaud: Boats come and go... but it's the sea that keeps Sophia going. You know what I mean... Focus on what matters to you... because when it's gone...
Amicia: Thank you!

Amicia: Arnaud! ARNAUD!
Count: This is it! You're too old, Arnaud. Too old to fight.
Arnaud: And you're so goddamn stupid. AMICIA! HE'S YOURS!
Amicia: It's over!

[After Amicia kills the Count, Arnaud is badly wounded and going to death]
Amicia: [worriedly to Arnaud] What can I do?
Arnaud: [painfully] You can stop shouting.
Amicia: Sorry... I... Please, don't... No...
Arnaud: It's the right time. And you gave me quite the last run. He's a great boy. And you...
Amicia: I know...
Arnaud: You...

XVII - Legacy of De Run Family

Amicia: [on Hugo's grave] Hey... They didn't use to come here before... I always knew you'd be good at making friends. I wasn't sure I was ready. But... Sophia's here. [tearfully] I'm sorry... Why is it so hard? We never backed down, right? We held... May this earth remember how much you loved it... May it remember all you gave... to protect it. [standing up with determination] I remember. And I won't let it be forgotten.
