"For years, the townspeople walked the shallow channel to the island to watch thousands of fairy penguins return home at night." "(PENGUINS CALL)" "Because the penguins brought a special magic to the town." "But one night, foxes found that they too could walk to the island."

"I remember when there were thousands here." "What a shame." "Maybe they're just staying out to protect themselves." "We just need to hold the foxes off a little while." " How?" "With tranquilliser guns?" "Yeah." " See how well that's been going." "I was actually doing alright till the foxes defied nature and learnt how to swim." "Listen, your annual review is in two weeks." "To keep funding and sanctuary status, you need at least 10 penguins to call this place home." " And at this rate..." "Mr Watt, Paul, please." "You knew my mum." "This sanctuary was her everything." "I can't let her down." "Please." "That's why I've stuck my neck out with council for so long." "I'm sorry, Emily." "But if council sees less than 10 penguins next month, the place won't be a sanctuary, it'll just be a rock." "ZOE:" "So now what do we do?" "Well, unless things take a turn, we're all out of work."
