Manuela von Meinhardis
- Manuela von Meinhardis: When you say goodnight and shut the door to your room I stare at the door in the darkness. I want to get up and come to you but I know that I can't. I think about when I leave the school and you'll still be here. And every night you kiss new girls...
- Fraulein von Bernburg: What a silly idea!
- Manuela von Meinhardis: I love you so, but you're always so distant. I can't ever go to your room, or talk to you, or...
- Fraulein von Bernburg: Pull yourself together child. Forget you're a young girl and be a good friend. You know I can't make exceptions or the other girls will be jealous. But I think of you often, Manuela.
- Manuela von Meinhardis: Girls! I want to give a speech. I love you all. Shall I tell you a secret?
- Ilse von Westhagen, Marga von Rasso, Ilse von Treischke, Edelgard Komtesse von Mengsberg, Mia von Wollin: Yes!
- Manuela von Meinhardis: She gave me a present. An undergarment. And I'm wearing it.
- Ilse von Westhagen, Marga von Rasso, Ilse von Treischke, Edelgard Komtesse von Mengsberg, Mia von Wollin: An undergarment?
- Manuela von Meinhardis: She opened her closet and gave me one of her undergarments. I'm supposed to wear it and think of her. No, she didn't say that, but she didn't have to, I just know. I'm so happy because I know for sure, she - she loves me.
- Frl. von Bernburg: You must be brought to your senses. You must be cured, whatever it takes.
- Manuela von Meinhardis: Cured? Of what?
- Frl. von Bernburg: You're not allowed to - love me in that way.
- Manuela von Meinhardis: Why?
- Ilse von Treischke: Do you know what dorm you're in?
- Manuela von Meinhardis: Marga says I'm in Miss von Bernburg's.
- Ilse von Treischke, Ilse von Westhagen: Wow!
- Ilse von Westhagen: Me too. Well, don't fall in love.
- Manuela von Meinhardis: But why?
- Ilse von Westhagen: Almost all the girls here have a crush on Miss von Bernburg. Oh, God! When I finally don't have to listen to that anymore. "Ilse! I envy you! You're in her dormitory! Oh, gosh, gosh, gosh! Tell me, is it true that she kisses you at night?"
- Ilse von Westhagen: You know what the headmistress said? "She has nice legs, nice legs."
- Manuela von Meinhardis: What did Miss von Bernburg say?
- Ilse von Westhagen: It was strange. Bernburg didn't say a single thing the whole time. But the way she looked at you, you can't even imagine.
- Manuela von Meinhardis: I fear nothing. Yes! Everybody should know! Long live our beloved Miss von Bernburg!
- Frl. von Bernburg: So you're the new one? Let me take a look. It suits you. Turn around. Your hair needs to be neater. Everything pinned in. There you go. Why are you shaking? Are you nervous?
- Manuela von Meinhardis: No.
- Frl. von Bernburg: Good. Manuela, I require total discipline.
- Oberin des Stifts: People like you are banned from society. You'll find out about your punishment later. I'm sure you know that you sinned against Miss von Bernburg. She'll never forgive you.
- Manuela von Meinhardis: But what did I do?
