SCENE 4 (The Wooltons have arrived and stand in the middle of the hill set, looking about. There is a somewhat mysterious "tent" made with a large woolen blanket center stage. We can hear whimpering coming from underneath it. Initially, The Wooltons do not seem to notice.) HEYWOOD: We've arrived! Finally. WOLFGANG: Look at all those stars. What a perfect night. GABBY: What a cold night. The first thing we need to do is build a fire. HEYWOOD: No, the first thing we need to do is gather the sheep. (A louder, discernable whimper comes from under the blanket.) WOLFGANG: Listen! What was that?! (The whimper now becomes more of a wail.) WOLFGANG: It's coming from underneath that blanket. HEYWOOD: Then we have to uncover it. C'mon on, Wolfgang—one, two, three … (Heywood and Wolfgang whip off the blanket…revealing a crazed Mackenzie—disheveled, hair frizzed to the max. First she screams, then the family screams.) MACKENZIE: AHHHHHHHH! HEYWOOD, GABBY & WOLFGANG: AHHHHHHHH! WOLFGANG: Look. It's … a girl! GABBY: No, it's an administrative assistant. (Mackenzie continues to moan and rock side to side, still crazed.) HEYWOOD: It must be Mackenzie. Vivian said she'd been watching the sheep until we arrived. Looks like we got here just in time. WOLFGANG: She does seem a bit … anxious. 39 For Preview Only
