- Ick.
- The next morning, Laurent notices that his scar is beaming bright red against his white neck.
- He goes to see Thérèse that evening. When he does, he finds out that she also suffered nightmares last night.
- The two lovers become even more desperate to unite against Camille's ghost.
- Because obviously it's Camille's ghost that is causing them both to have nightmares. Duh.
