Silas approaches the Church of Saint-Sulpice, regretting his crimes but confident they are in service to a higher cause. The pain of his sins lingers, but pain purifies the soul: “‘The measure of your faith is the measure of pain you can endure,’ the Teacher had told him” (80). He knocks on the church door.
Sophie, after a falling out with her grandfather 10 years prior, feels no emotion over his death. Bidden to never contact her, Sauniére has abided by her wishes until he called earlier in the day to warn her they were both in danger. He hinted at a family secret, but Sophie suspected a ruse—her family was killed in a car accident years ago—so she never returned his call. Now, standing in a museum bathroom with Langdon, she wonders why her grandfather would bring them together in such a roundabout and macabre way. Convinced Langdon possesses important information, she argues they should flee to the US Embassy. He refuses, but she is insistent. Fache is intent on arresting Langdon, guilty or innocent, and escape is the only way to buy time.
