Go To

  • Joan insisting to her father that they feed a stranger that has shown up, begging for food. It doesn't matter if he is a "rascal," but he is hungry. This inspires her to go to the dauphin and lead an army for France.
  • Joan and Louis talk under a tree that is their childhood meeting spot. She says that if they go to war, it may be the last time they stand under it.
  • The Sudden Downer Ending that shows Joan got captured by the English, tried as a witch, and sentenced to death by a Kangaroo Court. We see Joan in prison with her hair cut and her head hanging low with the weight of her failure.
  • Joan says goodbye to her friend Louis before her execution. He says he doesn't want her to die, but can't do a thing about it, though he promises never to forget her; to comfort him, Joan brings up their childhood tree, and they reminisce sitting under it.
  • After this, she is burned at the stake, and no one can or will save Joan. She faces the flames with tears and dignity.
