The Orphanage guards ride on horseback along a dirt road that runs along the countryside. Suddenly the footprints they were following disappear. The squad of soldiers comes to a halt. They look around in disbelief. All they can see are ploughed fields dotted with scarecrows. The soldiers patrol the fields, threading their way between the motionless scarecrows. An insect tickles the nose of a scarecrow whose face is covered by a shapeless straw hat. Drì captures it just in time to avoid a sneeze. The soldiers cannot find a thing and so they decide to go back to where they came from. A great bird lands on the head of one of the scarecrows, which proceeds to brush it off using foul language. It’s Kim. The others begin to move, as well. We can recognize Sita and the other boys. They’ve done it, they’re safe and sound. The group splits up.
