about with the other.
Ostrich: 'You don't have to hide all of me, just my head! Do
you have any sand?'
Sasha: 'I don't think…'
Panel 3: Ostrich delightedly looking over Sasha's shoulder,
while she looks the same way.

Sasha: 'But that's…'
Ostrich: 'I'll just go and…'

changed out of your prisoner outfit?'

Elba: 'I'll look it up…'
