TENS!
The three above thirty grows bigger. After, the zero beside the three grows bigger.
The zero says, AND NOTHING MORE!
Three says, OH!
Thirty says, IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE MORE,
THEN COME TO THE CIRCUS.
Thirty gestures to their left, but nothing is there. Two and one look confused.
Two asks, WHAT CIRCUS?
Thirty says, I LIKE TO KEEP IT
UNDER MY HAT.
Thirty tosses their hat. It lands and grows into a giant tent.
(Gasping)
(Cheering)
(Laughing)
The numberblocks run towards the tent. Inside, a balance beam is set between two ladders, behind are trapeze bars hanging from the ceiling. One, two, three, four and five jump onto a bench. Thirty stands in front of them.
