Lvl six: Yellow Daisy Field

01a (The boy climbs out of the tree house and Twice follows him down with the hammer. Twice turns to the boy and says.)

Twice: “I had a friend that liked to light fires. Every summer in class, she would take a magnifying glass and point it at a piece of paper. We would all wait staring as the paper went from brown to black. Then a wisp and it would catch fire.”

Boy: “I want to light a fire.”

01b (The boy climbs out of the tree house with the hammer and Twice follows him down. The scan floats down to the other end of the field where a small fire seems to have just started burning.)

Twice: “Summer fires. I had a friend that liked to light fires. Every summer in class, she would take a magnifying glass and point it at a piece of paper. We would all wait staring as the paper went from brown to clack. Then a wisp and it would catch fire.”

(As she says this the scan slowly burns in the fire, leaving just a wisp of smoke behind it.)
