Danilov:
You have to leave now, Mrs. Filipov- Stalingrad may fall! The last of the boats are leaving, the boats will be here any moment!

Tania:
He's brought you a pass. You have to gather your things and then we'll help you carry them to the landing.

Mrs. Filipov:
I'm not leaving. This is my home. This is my Sacha's home. I can't leave!

Danilov:
I have to tell you something, Mrs. Filipov... something very difficult to understand. It's about Sacha.

[Tania and Danilov both hesitate, trying to find an explanation- Sacha has been hung by Koenig.]

Danilov:
Sacha has gone over to the Germans. He's betrayed his country. He's with the enemy now; he won't be coming back.

Mrs. Filipov:
Oh, my God. Oh, my God. He's become a traitor! What has he done? So he's going to stay over there?

Tania:

[After reaching the boats, Mrs. Filipov goes back to a wooden sign with many hand-written letters nailed to it. She leaves one, hoping Sacha will find it when the Germans take the landing]

Mrs. Filipov:
[On the note] I am in good health. They are evacuating me to the other bank. Keep well my Sacha.
