Inés: [model pointing at defaced portrait] Why doesn't that painting have a face?
Goya: Because he is a ghost.
Inés: No, he is not.
Goya: Have you ever seen a ghost?
Inés: No. But I have seen a witch.
Goya: Oh, did you?
Inés: Yes, but she had a face.
Goya: So what did she look like?
Inés: She was... all bent and creepy, and she...
[whispers:]
Inés: stank.
[makes disparaging sound]
Goya: That's interesting, because the witch that I know, she's... she's young, very lovely, and she smells of jasmine.
Inés: [smiles] She does?
Goya: She does. And I'm working on her portrait... right now.
Inés: [smiles as it dawns on her what he means] I'm no witch!
Goya: [chuckles] How do you know?
Tomás Bilbatúa: [worried father, to his young daughter] You have received a summons from the Holy Office.
[she sits down]
Tomás Bilbatúa: Do you have any idea what it might be about?
Inés: No...
Tomás Bilbatúa: Where did you go with your brothers last night?
Inés: The tavern.
[shakes her head]
Tomás Bilbatúa: Think. Did you say something sacrilegious?
Inés: [shakes her head] No.
Tomás Bilbatúa: [to his two sons] Was there an incident or something they could hold against her?
Álvaro Bilbatúa: She kissed the feet of a dwarf.
[Inés sticks her tongue out at him]
Tomás Bilbatúa: [to his daughter] You did?
Álvaro Bilbatúa: She did.
[his mother scoffs]
Inés: Everyone did.
Ángel Bilbatúa: You know... they can summon her just to... testify against someone else.
María Isabel Bilbatúa: [hoarsely] Someone else?
Inés: Is there someone you know they might be interested in?
Inés: I don't know.
[shakes her head]
Inés: No.
