Matron: [to assembled class] From this day forward, you will become Sparrows. Weapons in a global struggle for power. You have been selected because of your beauty, because of your strength. And, in some cases, because of your vulnerability.
[clearly meaning Anya]
Matron: Katya, Viktor, come here please.
[Dominika and Viktor obliges]

Matron: Here we deal in psychological manipulation. You'll be trained to determine a target's weakness, to exploit that weakness through seduction, and to extract information.
[to Dominika and Victor:]
Matron: Take off your clothes.
[Viktor starts undressing, but Dominika doesn't react]
Matron: Your body belongs to the

State. Since your birth, the State nourished it. Now the State asks something in return.
[still Dominika hesitates]
Matron: You must learn to sacrifice for a higher purpose... To push yourself beyond all limitations. Forget the simple morality with which you were raised. Or was it pride? In my experience, the proud are the first to fall. Viktor, put on your clothes.
