Ms. Pross takes care of Lucie even when Dr. Manette is imprisoned. Later, she faces off with Madame Defarge while the Manette's flee. She says: "I am a Briton, […]I am desperate. I don't care an English Twopence for myself. I know that the longer I keep you here, the greater hope there is for my Ladybird. I'll not leave a handful of that dark hair upon your head, if you lay a finger on me!" (3.14.84)
