No? Well, if you didn't do it, and I didn't do it, then who did?

Hello.

(SHANTI gives a little wave. EVERYONE turns around to look at her.)

Who are you?

My name is Shanti. I live in the village over the river.

You mean ... the man-village?

Is that what you call it here?

(The JUNGLE nods.)

Well, it's not just a man village. There are women and little girls ... and little boys just like you.

Hey, have you been here all this time?

Sometimes I sneak into the jungle to have an adventure. I saw what happened ... and how brave you were.
(to the JUNGLE)
How brave all of you were ... I couldn't just sit there and not help out!

(from offstage)
Shanti! Shanti! Where are you? You know you aren't allowed to play in the jungle!

Uh-oh. I'd better go.
