Episode 15: Boneyard

The carnival comes to town. Mazolli takes the twins to the fairgrounds to watch the carneys set up. The trucks carry collapsed bundles of steel which the carneys unfold into ferris wheels and merry go rounds. When can we go on the rides? ask the twins. In a day or two, says Mazolli, as soon as they’re done getting ready. Will they have cotton candy? ask the twins. I’m sure, says Mazolli. Can we get some? Sure you can, says Mazolli. And popcorn too. We don’t like popcorn, say the twins. Okay, says Mazolli, no popcorn. Just cotton candy.
