""Ma a che ti serviva la nuvola?" Si chiama Pulce e risolve problemi. Per farlo, ricorre all'antico e desueto stratagemma di porre domande. Interroga chi incontra sul motivo di una paura inspiegabile, di una particolare malinconia, di una speranza tradita. Gira e rigira, le risposte sono altre domande: d'amore o d'amicizia, di protezione o di salvezza. "Mi serviva a nascondermi," le risponde il passero, terrorizzato dal falco che lo insegue. Detto, fatto: il volto di Pulce diventa la nuvola in cui rifugiarsi! È scappata di casa, Pulce.
