MR. BUNT SANDMAN

In the distance.

All the world's asleep. GYEM

Yes, all the world's asleep. I wish I were.

Reaching out, he turns one of the maple keys and throws it on the ground. There is silence. VOICE

From the trees, full of pep. What am I ? GYEM

Laughing Can't you remember anything ? You are a fairy. VOICE

Oh, where am I ? GYEM

You are in the world again. VOICES

Key - key - key - key - key - key — key. GYEM

There are the rest of them. VOICE

Where are they? GYEM

That's what I can't understand. The minute I let you out of the Maple Tree you forget every thing you ever knew. And I have to begin all over again.

VOICE

Where do I begin?
