Waiting for the wind to carry us somewhere, somehow.
Sitting becalmed in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee of Cuttyhunk.

GORDON (overlapping)

Right.

ROGER
Wait, I hear it.

RHODA
Wait, it's coming.

ENSEMBLE
Wait, I feel the wind.
I think we're moving.
I think we're moving.
Not becalmed.

GORDON
Could that be a metaphor?

ENSEMBLE
Cuttyhunk is in our past!

GORDON
Getting somewhere at last is a sign of things improving.

ENSEMBLE
Not becalmed in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee, in the Lee of Cuttyhunk!

NANCY D (spoken)
We got the picture!

RICHARD (spoken)
That wasn't so bad, now was it?
