Page 1 (10 panels in total) 1 Everything is dark. Three teardrop-shaped brown creatures with eyes and mouths are waiting. 2 They look up in amazement. Part of a hand and a pair of scissors can be seen cutting a slit in the darkness above. 3 The slit is now at the bottom, and the three creatures fall. 4 Perspective from the point of view of one creature still in the darkness, watching as the other two fall into the palm of a hand. 5 The hand carefully folds its fingers over the three creatures... 6 ...and drops them into a terracotta-coloured pot filled with soil. The teardrop-shaped creatures are plant seeds! 7 Close-up of a seed looking fearfully towards the finger approaching it, which seems enormous... 8 ...and presses and squeezes the seed into the soil. The other two seeds look frightened. 9 Now they are all underground. 10 Something is happening to one of the seeds: it wiggles and a small root sprouts from the underside.

Page 2 (7 panels in total) 1 Close-up of a seed looking contentedly towards the root. 2 Now looking up in alarm as a crack forms on the top. 3 Even more alarmed as it splits open. 4 All three seeds are visible again, watching uneasily as they burst open at the top and something green emerges. 5 They smile because they realise that a small leaf is growing out of each one. 6 Now they look uncertain again because... 7 ...they are growing towards the surface. Top view of the flower pot with three small leaves sticking out of the soil.

Page 3 (6 panels in total) 1 Close-up view of how the single-leafed plants grow and stand up. 2 The three watch with interest as a second leaf grows on one of the plants. 3 Three plants, each with two leaves, now stand there smiling. 4 Something that looks like a small shovel approaches one of the three plants. The three look very frightened again. 5 The shovel lifts the plant, roots and all, along with a little soil. From the shovel's perspective, you can see the other two looking up in fear. There is a small hole in the soil. 6 Two large fingers approach the plant on the shovel.

They look happy. 8 Two bees with little hearts around them fly in from the edge of the picture and land directly on a flower. The flower smiles timidly. A ladybird has crawled onto the edge of the flower pot and is waving. At the bottom right of the picture is a text: ‘...BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY.’
