It was a touch from God.
I agree with Sophie's dialogue with her father.
Father said: You will be recorded in history. There is still justice in the world.
With the support of faith, death is not so scary anymore.
Sophie: Please don't be sad. If I do it again, I will never repent.
Robert Scholl: You did it right. I am proud of you.

78. Studheim Prison, Visiting Room, Day/Interior
Sophie is brought into a visiting room. She saw Hans (now in prison uniform) being taken away from their parents. Sophie and Hans looked at each other. His steps were light and dignified. His eyes shone as if he had won a huge victory, and his whole person looked bright. Sophie's mother is fighting back tears, trying to hide her grief.
Then Sophie came to her parents. Sophie was wearing her own dress (the same one she was wearing the day she was arrested), not her brother's prison uniform. She walked slowly, calmly, and very dignified. Sophie smiled, as if looking up at the sun. She leaned over the counter separating her and her parents, and handed them to her. There was a brief moment of silence, and then
—Magdalena Scholl: Sophie!
Father put his arms around her
—Robert Scholl: You will be written down in history. There is still justice in the world.
Sophie: That's bound to make a difference!
Mother took dessert out of her handbag.
Magdalena Scholl: Here, take it, eat something, Sophie, Hans doesn't like it.
Sophie: Oh, well, I didn't have anything to eat at noon.
Sophie took the cookie in her hand, but didn't eat it.
Sophie: Please don't be sad. If I do it again, I will never repent.
Robert Scholl: You did it right. I am proud of you.
Sophie (to father): We took all the blame on ourselves.
Mother was completely speechless. She stroked Sophie's cheek lightly, trying to calm herself and whisper—
Magdalena Scholl: Your skin...so young and tender...
Sophie comforted her mother, barely able to control herself, she said in a choked voice--
Sophie: Mom, it's so nice of you to be so brave and stand by my side right now.
Magdalena Scholl: But you'll never walk in the house again.
Sophie: It won't be long before we meet again in eternity.
Mother beat herself up and said in a choked voice
—Magdalena Scholl: Is that so... Sophie, Jesus.
Sophie replied in an almost coercive tone--
Sophie: Yes, mother, you too...!
The female guard came in. Sophie had to go with her. Sophie looked at her parents reluctantly and took a few steps back. The moment she turned her back to her parents, the smile on her face disappeared and tears welled up in her eyes. At this point, tears were streaming down Sophie's face. The parents did not see this scene. Sophie was taken away without looking back.
Our camera is on the proud, restrained, but gut-wrenching parents. The parents didn't see Sophie's tears. Robert Scholl took his wife in his arms.
