lives a little sound collector. HE YAWNS

And his best friend, Mole. HE CHUCKLES

MOLE SNORES

How long have you been asleep, Mole?

The Sound Collector must have got up early

His hearing aids aren't there.

MOLE SNUFFLES AND SNIFFS

Time to find him. MOLE SNIFFS

He's not here either.

Where could he be? SHE SNIFFS

SHE WHIMPERS

It's not like the Sound Collector to forget breakfast.

Where is he?

MOLE SNIFFS CURIOUSLY

There's a winter chill today.

With no-one to record them.

Up and up.

From the middle of somewhere...

to somewhere new.
