need to leave here.

I'm not leaving.

You are.

I mean it.

Leave.

Now!

Just you wait till I tell

your family about this.

That you've risked

their good family name

on a common harlot.

Yeah. Go tell them.

Go tell all of Paris.

See if I care.

Linh.

Linh, listen..

How could you

believe her?

I told her to leave.

She's gone.

I'm sorry.

Hit me.

Hit me again.

Harder. Harder.

Harder!

I want you to hurt me.

What was that?

Oh, God!

Oh, no.

Hello?

Hello?

Oh, God! Hello?

Oh, God!

I, uh..

I couldn't see you there.

What are you doing?

Oh, God.

You don't need

to be upset, Mrs. Han.

Linh has only been here

for a few months.

She doesn't know.

Nobody knows

Sa-Cat like you do.

But I think it'd be best

to have... a new vision

for the house.

No, thank you, captain.

Please, take it.

Mrs. Han..

...Linh has displayed

the hard work

and dedication

I want for the future

of the Sa-Cat.

Do you have a problem

with taking

her instruction?

I do, Captain Laurent.

Then perhaps

it might be best

to return to your home

to take care

of your mother.

She needs you more

than Sa-Cat

does right now.

Can I take you

to the train station?

No, thanks.

I can go by myself.

The war has escalated

and the French army

is worried about losing

the Gulf of Tonkin.

I have to return

to battle.

Now?

Tomorrow.

I've recovered

from my injuries.

I must return to my post.

You mustn't go back.

You'll be killed.

They're ordering me back.

I have to fulfill my duty.

I'm leaving

in the morning.

Where did you bury them?

Betrayer!

I promise I'll return.

This has happened before.

You leaving someone

here in Sa-Cat

while you were away

at war.

It's like..

...history

is repeating itself.

I'll come back to you.

You are mine!

You are mine!

No!

Stop haunting me!

You are mine!

Stop haunting me!

Stop!

Stop haunting me!

But why would the ghost

of his dead wife

want to kill him?

We don't have enough

to keep you here

so we're letting you go.

Forgive me.

No.

No!
