[There’s A TREE. A rather beautiful tree, actually. It’s approximately 400 years old and showing no signs of withering. Just imagine how many leaves this tree has said goodbye to and hello to over that time. Its bark is thick and wise. The branches reach up and out, offering the entire planet a hug as a thank you for giving it life, purpose and chance to dance in the wind, play in the snow, relax in the sun, grow in the rain. The tree is happy, content, excited for the future. DAVE sits under the tree and starts wanking.]

WILLIAM: Because you’re a window over looking the back garden.
THE WINDOW: Just come and look!
[William walks to The Window and sees the back garden.]

[BABS is sitting in her living room armchair. THE DUST (as in, like, actual dust, not a bloke called The Dust) is sitting on the bookshelves, the mantelpiece, the curtain rail, the foot stool, the lampshades, the rug, and everything else in there.]
BABS: Would you please just shut up?
THE DUST: Never.
