CONT<strong>IN</strong>UED: (2)<br />

KLARA (cont’d)<br />

Why is there smoke?<br />

MUNDEK<br />

I don’t know.<br />

Klara’s eyes stay fixed into the distance.<br />

KLARA<br />

The man who hung my father, who<br />

actually pulled the rope, had just<br />

promised he would save him.<br />

(pause)<br />

Papa’s last words were, “Be good to<br />

Mania. She’s spoiled but she has a<br />

good heart.” We always fought, so<br />

he had to make me promise...<br />

Klara turns to face Mundek. They look into each other’s eyes<br />

for a few beats.<br />

KLARA (cont’d)<br />

So...what can we take with us?<br />

Mundek goes to a bed, still usable.<br />

MUNDEK<br />

If we take this apart, we could get<br />

it down.<br />

Mundek goes to a small kerosene stove and lifts it, testing<br />

its weight.<br />

MUNDEK (cont’d)<br />

This should work.<br />

In a corner between the rubble, a gutted schoolbag, with<br />

notebooks and crayons tumbled out. A children’s book of<br />

HANSEL AND GRETEL. Mundek crouches as he turns the items<br />

around in his hand.<br />

Klara returns to the tray of cups and saucers and lifts it.<br />

KLARA<br />

What about this?<br />

items)<br />
