Is he secret; is he safe? |

|
MomOfPap: MR. HORN--
/peers back at kids
/steps outside
|

|
MomOfPap: Mr. Horn, what are you doing here? |

|
summer_of_horn:
The situation may soon grow dire; and it is imperative that I keep you apprised. |

|
summer_of_horn:
I came to you first eight years ago; when I retrieved a small Jonathan Papelbon from a cradle washed up on the Revere Beach shore. |

|
summer_of_horn:
I asked you to watch over him. Then; I was known only as Sam Horn. |

|
summer_of_horn:
Now; ! my title is
SAINT HORN, PATRON SAINT OF PROSPECTS AND PROMISING ROOKIES.
|

|
MomOfPap: Um. Congratulations! |

|
summer_of_horn:
Thank you; though it is a yoke I set upon my shoulders with much reluctance. It is now my call to stalk the lands and ensure that those with great potential do not fail; as I did. |

|
summer_of_horn:
You must understand that his very career is at stake; tell me this; is he eating his crusts? |

|
MomOfPap: Why yes! What kind of mother would I be if I didn't make him eat his crusts? |

|
summer_of_horn:
Then all is well; ma'am. You must ensure that he is not thrust into unfamiliar situations and treated as a one-size-fits-all Band-Aid. It is vital to his career that he is allowed to transition slowly; absolutely vital. |

|
summer_of_horn:
I have come here today to present a request:; give the boy some toy blocks. It has been revealed to me that what he builds will be an omen of things to come. |

|
summer_of_horn:
By my troth; I am off.
