Scene 1 of 8
The first thing Jay does is put the kettle on. Not for the bird. It is for himself, because it takes four minutes. By the end of them his hands have stopped being in a hurry. Then he folds a towel into the box. Bo waits by the table leg. He does not bark. He has never once put his nose in.
