The scene opens with the sound of strings all over the place. It's the middle of the night, and everyone is in a panic. They're afraid of what's going to happen to them now that they're back in the real world. They don't know what to do, since they've been sleeping in the river for a month. The doctor has told them they shouldn't exercise too much, but they'll have to get used to it soon. They agree not to talk about the exam today, though, because it's too stressful for them to discuss the exam. They both agree that the dream was just a game, and that one has to get back to reality. They can't figure out what the future holds for them, because they haven't found any trace of the big families or the big people in the dream. They also agree that there's nothing to be found about the guy from the dream, since he's already disappeared. They promise not to think about the dream again, and then the scene ends.
