The next morning, the Governess wakes up to the sound of the baby's crying. She's not sure what's going on, but she's pretty sure that it's the baby. The Governess tries to convince her father-in-law to take the baby away from her, but the old man won't listen. He tells her that he's tired, and that she shouldn't be ungrateful. The old man says that he saw nothing wrong with the baby that night, but that he doesn't want to make her do something ungrateful. He's just tired of the whole thing. The man tells her to leave the baby with him, and she tells him that she wants to go to France with him. She says that the man has come to her sense that she set him up that night. He didn't have the ability to do the job he was hired to do, and he just fooled around all day. She tells the man that it was his fault that he ruined her career. She accuses him of teaching him a lesson, and tells him to stop wasting his time.
