Gentle Melody

The children, with Pague's help, rip some of the remaining bulkhead panels off the shuttle to use on the house, while Menori stands to one side directing their efforts. As they start to lift the panels onto a cart for Pague to haul to Fairy Lake, Howard protests that Menori is standing doing nothing. Luna asks Menori to pitch in, but on helping to lift the first panel, she cuts her finger. As she spaces out, Bell fashions a bandage from a strip of Sharla's handkerchief. She has a flashback to a memory of her mother taking away her pain when she injured her finger as a child, then a memory of her mother's funeral, with a voice-over from her father commanding her to always hide her emotions from other people. Sharla and Shingo attempt to cheer her up, but she brushes them off.
