Alison and Helena are talking about their lives while preparing lunch. Jimmy is out in the hallway playing his trumpet. Helena complains about it loudly, and Jimmy responds by blasting a few notes. The trumpet was recorded in the theatre to make it sound more natural, and played back through an off-stage speaker facing away from the stage to distance it.

In this scene, we meet Middletown's resident astronaut, who is currently in outer space. During the transition into outpace we hear the sounds of a wind tunnel, accompanied with the recordings of the electromagnetic waves of the planets.
