Found incorrect info?
Cosette, who comes to spend the night with Jean Valjean in the monastery (!), is something.
Before that, I stupidly let the inspector near me and waited for him to remember him.
I've watched the 2018 series for a long time, but somehow the actions of the characters didn't seem so stupid there, maybe I was impressed then, or maybe those moments were smoothed out in that series.
