Sister Rebeka: I am Sister Rebeka. It just want to bring three simple rules to your attention before we start our journey.
Toorop: We? I'm here to pick up one girl.
Sister Rebeka: Where ever she goes, I go. That is rule number 1. Rule number 2, the less contact she has with the outside world, the better. You're here to protect her from outside influences. That includes seeing, hearing, and feeling.
Toorop: Now it's a harsh world out there, sister.
Sister Rebeka: I know. That is why we live in here.
Toorop: Aw shit, okay, what's your third rule?
Sister Rebeka: No foul language. Do we have an agreement?
Toorop: You listen to my one and only rule - don't fuck with me. Or I'll leave you standing in the middle of nowhere with nothing but your ass to sell to get back here, your perfect world. Do *we* have an agreement?
