SECOND BOY

Hold on, I can’t keep up—

POACHER

Not trying then, are you?

SECOND BOY

Aw, Dad . . .

POACHER

(Hisses)

Keep it down! You want the whole bloody village to know?

SECOND BOY

(Grinning)

Think they don’t? Half of ‘em were down here last week.

POACHER

You shut up, or I’ll take my stick to y—ow!

He’s STUMBLED OVER SOMETHING.

SECOND BOY

What’s wrong?

POACHER

There’s summat caught under the water.

(Fumbles around)

Wedged under a stone. Help me, will you?

SECOND BOY

Oh, Lord. Not again.

With a GRUNT OF TRIUMPH and a great SPLASH, the POACHER pulls something out.

POACHER

Look, it’s a bag! Must belong to that Doctor Purl.

SECOND BOY

What’d it be doing here, then?

POACHER

Who cares? Might be a reward. Come on!
