The next morning, the doctor informs the lieutenant that the red dog will not be able to join the battle because she has a serious injury. The lieutenant says that he will accompany the dog to the field to check on her injuries. The dog is furious at the doctor for treating her like a "golden child" and for not telling her that she can either live or die. She accuses the doctor of making her life miserable and says she will take care of her own injuries.
