Episode 2 - The Lost Sock Graveyard

Scene 1: Mumble’s Bedroom

It was in a sock.  Mumble knew she had hidden it in a sock. But she couldn’t find the sock. She could find the other one. The twin of her father’s old red football sock sat there looking at her, sad that its mate was missing.

She knew that if she wanted to find the box with the flute in she would have to ask for some help.

She closed her eyes. “Red sock with the box in it, where are you?” she asked. She knew that when she did that, it was like asking the universe to help her find something.

Suddenly she heard four footed pounding on the stairs, and Shulfi, the Irish wolfhound crossed Sheepdog that had shown up on Mumble’s birthday, bounded into the bedroom with all the grace of a shag pile carpet. Seeing Shulfi in the doorway Mumble whooped with delight as a red slobber covered sock was lolling like a wet tongue from his mouth and he was looking very pleased with himself about it.
