Marji has big expectations for God. She speaks to him every night but in time these conversations begin to fade. One night, Marji overhears her parents talking about a theatre being burnt down (16, frame 1). She tells God, who is present, that she wants to join her parents to go demonstrate. In the next frame, God leaves the room without telling her; and he would not come back for the night.
