(takes his hand out from under the water)
That feels better.

CAMILLE
Let me see it ...

She takes his hand into hers -- pulls a kerchief from her pocket and dries the water off --

CAMILLE (CONT'D)
You hand needs medicine on it.
You better come with me into the school so I can put something on it --

120. INT. A CLASSROOM IN THE SCHOOL - DAY

She applies some medication to his wound -- he winces for a moment -- and then she begins to wrap it in a bandage -- David keeps looking about the room, admiring its cleanliness, the long blackboard, the strong, steady student chairs --

CAMILLE
You keep looking around, David.
Don't you go to school?

DAVID LEE
Sometime, but not like this.

CAMILLE
It's a good thing your hand did not become infected -- how did you cut it like this?

DAVID LEE
Me and Sounder went to this prison camp to see my daddy and the police guard runs us away and I fell on some glass.

CAMILLE
Did your mother know you were going to see your father?
