Girl in the Blue Coat

Hanneke realizes her mistake in assuming Mirjam was running to Amalia. She bikes home, determined to make her way to Amalia, but before she arrives, she sees Ollie standing in the middle of the road, waving his arms. He tells her he has bad news: Mirjam was brought to Hollandsche Schouwburg Theater for deportation.

Hanneke resists Ollie’s news, convinced she knows where Mirjam was heading. When she finally accepts that Mirjam may have been captured, she seeks to confirm that the “M. Roodveldt” is in fact Mirjam. Ollie gives her the address of Mina’s hiding place, and she is surprised to see that it is a familiar address.

Hanneke arrives at Mrs. de Vries’s to discover it is the hiding place for Mina, as well as the de Vries’s missing neighbors, the Cohens. She realizes that Mrs. de Vries talked disparagingly about her neighbors to obfuscate the fact that she was giving them refuge in an elaborately constructed hidden room. Hanneke asks Mina if she saw Mirjam being brought into the theater, which is across the street. Mina reveals that she took photographs of the group that was brought to the theater. Mrs. de Vries offers to use her contact to have Mina’s rare color film developed.
