In reception Becky Foster sets up her display under the watchful eye of Adam Chance and Meg Mortimer.  "That bird," Meg says to Adam.  "It's an osprey," Becky Foster tells them.  "Well, it looks a bit..." says Meg.  "Dead," suggests Adam.  "Yes.  And that monkey," says Meg, looking at a monkey perched on the reception desk.  "It looks a bit..." says Meg.  "Stuffed," suggests Adam.
