Tidal Movements [ 1 ]

Part 1.
Walking across fields toward rusty headlands. 

The man and his daughter come across the same young man 
picking mushrooms.
Speaking to him, they can be heard commenting about the 
chill damp morning.
Clearly shattered from this brief encounter, the young man 
returns to his sulky daydreams.

The father and daughter meanwhile, continuing up the hillside, 
quietly resume some queer conversation about the animals 
they had earlier been placing on the opposite side
of the valley.

Part2.
Same week. Local newspaper. 

The man and his daughter spot both a picture 
of the young man and a short report about his tragic, 
unexplained death at sea.

Relieved, they quickly recall their conversation with him
before continuing with the construction of more animals 
for the valley.
