[There is a small child sitting in the middle of the common room. He has a bandage over one eye and his arm in a sling and is sitting oddly still for a child.]

[ A... BABY!

Walks over looking concerned. ]

Hey there... Are you waiting for something?

I don't know. I don't know where I am and I'm not supposed to leave my room.

[He doesn't sound sad or nervous or anyway about it at all really. Just reporting facts.]

[ This bean. ]

Do you want to go back to your room?

I don't know where it is. I've never left the facility. I don't know how I got here.

I can try and help you back. Do you want to come with me?

Do you work for the committee?

Haven't even heard of them.

Then I'm not allowed to go with you.

Even if they don't find out?

They always know.

Okay, how about I just keep you company then.

[ Takes a packaged of dried apple slices out of his pocket. ]

Want a bite?

I don't think I'm allowed.

[But he is quite curious! Looking at the treat.]

It's just a little. You have to eat and keep your energy up.

[ Waving... the apple. ]
