Pop asks the village chief if he can do something to help him. The chief says that he'll do anything for the village. The village chief tells him to hold off until he makes an announcement. He says that the fine dust is getting worse, and that touching it makes you feel better. He asks her to show him the dirt, and she says that she's already so wet that she can't do it. He tells her to hurry to take off her mask, and he says that they'll take immediate action if she doesn't stop. She flinches, and then she starts to wipe her face with the dirt. She's so sorry, she says. He's supposed to send someone, but he's not supposed to do it today. He promises to send her some coffee, too, and they hurry to greet her.
