From Quiz Classic "Ladyhawke" Quotes
Answer:
What? Oh God, is it Lent again already?
In the scene before this, the hawk is hit by an arrow. Navarre lends Phillipe his horse and tells him to bring Isabeau to a certain ruined castle. He says that the monk there would know what to do. When Phillipe gets to the ruins, this little misunderstanding occurs. But when he tells Imperius who the hawk belongs to, Imperius immediately takes him in, but says that removing the arrow from the hawk must wait until after sundown.
At this point in the film, Phillipe doesn't know that the hawk is really a human. But later in the scene, Phillipe finally finds out about the whole human/hawk thing when he goes to look in on the hawk after sundown, only to find a woman in lying the bed with an arrow in her sholder and no hawk.
We find out later that Imperius is the one who betrayed Navarre and Isabeau to the evil Bishop, causing them to be cursed. But he does redeem himself eventually by telling Navarre how to break the curse.
