 	Scene 	Pferd's aunt Ingrid has sent him a delicious carrot and he is trying to think of a way to thank her. He concludes that he might get an idea after he has eaten the carrot. Wolle comes by and Pferd tells him about the problem. Wolle suggests that Pferd sing a little song.
 	Scene 	Pferd tries to rap a song, but Wolle doesn't think a rap song is the right thing to do. He suggests that he should play an instrument.

Pferd thinks it's a great idea and goes to find one.
 	Scene 	Pferd attempts to play the tuba but nothing happens. Wolle tells him to blow harder, but still nothing happens.
