Sister Catharine

Flashback

Leslie is in a classroom, with Sister Catharine teaching. She scolds Leslie for not paying attention, says "I know where you came from". Some introduction to the nuns and the orphans they care for. Leslie is a new girl, and isn't used to the place yet.

Leslie was looking out of the window at Sister Agnes, who had just returned from hospital. She isn't well, and Leslie knows she is going to die. Leslie silently prays for her, but thoughts reveal she's unsure of her faith.

Leslie gets punished, but doesn't remember the details. It's revealed that she knew the old nun was going to die, and that she has some kind of gift, but that she has had to learn not to tell anyone.
