looks with a high-pitched squeal; her hair is ratted out more than
before—but now has a number of outlandish bows in it.) I know.
Taffeta bows are my signature trademark.
HEYWOOD: Goodbye. We'll be back as soon as we can.
(Heywood and Gabby exit.)
MACKENZIE: (calling out after them) It was nice meeting you … (pleasantly,
to herself) … whoever you are.
WOLFGANG: That's my older brother, Heywood. He tends to take charge
of things.
MACKENZIE: He must have been shepherding a long time.
WOLFGANG: Oh no. This is his first job as a shepherd. It's the first time
for all of us.
MACKENZIE: I'm surprised. You all seem to know a lot about being
shepherds.
WOLFGANG: Not really, but we're learning. A really wise shepherd named
Enoch wrote down a lot of things we need to remember.
MACKENZIE: Like what?
WOLFGANG: Well, like Bethlehem shepherds need to always pray and
watch for the coming Messiah. Messiah means "God's
Chosen One."
MACKENZIE: (genuinely interested) Really? Does Enoch say when this
Messiah will come?
WOLFGANG: No, it's probably going to be a big surprise. But we need to
keep watching. That's why I'm glad we're on top of this hill.
We've got a great view up here.
MACKENZIE: You know, I think you're going to make a very good
shepherd one day, Wolfgang. Well thanks for helping me
pack. And tell Gabby thanks for the hair 911. And I really
hope Heywood finds the sheep.
WOLFGANG: Goodbye, Mackenzie. (waving, as she exits)
MACKENZIE: (in the distance) Goodbye …
