LEE
What’s the matter? You don’t believe me?
COT
My friend told me I had to grow out of playing with invisible friends.
LEE
Piffle. The invisible things in life are often
a lot more interesting than the visible ones.
Case in point: an invisible bubble in the forest
that makes people disappear for a year at a time.
COT
You’re just some crazy person in the forest, aren’t you.
LEE
Nonsense. If I were a crazy person, would I do this?
[LEE runs headlong into the Fairy Ring. There is a flash, and she is gone. COT is alone in the forest]
COT
Oh no, not her too.
[COT sits down and weeps quietly]
COT
At least with the crazy girl I had someone to talk to.
I guess that's the last we'll see of her.
