About this episode

The coach bringing them back from Paris has an accident. Sophie and Camille are obliged to spend the night at a blacksmith's while Mrs de Fleurville, Mrs de Rosbourg and Madeleine go back to Fleurville. Sophie gives Madeleine a beautiful little robin she found in the grass and saved from certain death. Even though she is a bit anxious becuase she doesn't have her doll with her, Sophie spends a happy night in the modest blacksmith's house. The next day, they return to Fleurville and Sophie is reunited with her doll. The robin has been carefully looked after by Madeleine and is in good health. He is kept in his cage most of the time, until Sophie decides to free him.
