(The Wind stops blowing)

WIND: What do you want. I´m in a hurry!.

MR. MOUSE: Would you like to marry our daughter?. She is the most beautiful mouse in the world!.

WIND: I am not the most powerful. The most powerful is the wall.

MR. MOUSE AND MRS. MOUSE: The wall?.

WIND: Yes.The wall stops me.   The wall doesn´t let me go through.

(The Wind leaves whistling trying to destroy the wall. Mr. and Mrs. Mouse fall down because of the wind force)
