Ruth begins the scene as an elderly woman standing in front of a casket. We don't know who this person is but it is clear she means the world to Ruth. She begins to tell us about Marion Pritchard, a Dutch woman that had taken her and her family in during the Holocaust. It is Marion who has died and Ruth felt compelled to not only attend her funeral but to share her experiences with Marion with the audience. She then transitions back to being a teenager and teacher her younger siblings how to play "hide and seek." A fun game but heartbreaking to see when we realize it it so hide from the military men who were searching for Jews to take to the camps. But Ruth continues to share her experience helping her parents and secretly meeting with her friends at night to help find places to hide if they needed to. It is after the vicious murder of her mother that the family decides they must move.

They travel hidden by the forest by day and against the darkness at night until they come upon a nice-looking woman that Ruth says is trustworthy, introduce Marion. She happily takes them in, takes care of them and they assist as the helps Jewish people escape undetected. She is as caring and loving as Ruth's mother and she will forever be thankful for her giving them a place to hide and help all at the same time. When the war is over they part ways but years later as Ruth reads the local newspaper she sees that Marion has died and we have come full circle. The scene ends with Ruth giving a beautiful eulogy to remind us all that there are good people out there and Marion taught her that in the midst of the darkness you have to come through it to again find the light. *This story is fan fare respectfully paying homage to the true hero Marion Pritchard.
