They eventually convince her to return: "all sins are forgivable". The villagers are asked to remain in their houses so as to not embarrass Geneviève when she arrives. Escorted by the priest and the Marquis, Geneviève walks through the empty street to the bakery and cautiously approaches her door. She finds Aimable and attempts to tell him the truth, but he awkwardly refuses to listen, offering her dinner and insisting that she has returned from visiting her mother. Pompom arrives at the window, and Aimable angrily chastises the cat for running after "some tom that looked good in the moonlight." He unleashes all of his pent-up bitterness toward Geneviève on the small cat, but offers it a saucer of milk. He has faithfully refilled the milk each day, and when Aimable charges that the cat will run off yet again, a tearful Geneviève assures him that "she will not leave". Reconciled, the two begin to prepare the bread for the next day. Denise begins the new day at the café, reprising her "Chanson", joined by the town in harmony.
