The other students see Margot as different. She is very introverted and meek. Unlike the other children, Margot came from Earth four years ago. She remembers (and misses) the sun. She is devastated by her move to Venus because of the constant rain.
The children excitedly talk about the sun. They make paintings and poems about it. None but Margot remember the sun, because seven years ago, when it last stopped raining, they were only two years old. Margot was four when she moved from Earth.
Just before the sun emerges and the rain subsides for the two-hour reprieve, the students lock Margot in a closet. The rain stops and they instantly forget about her. They go outside to play in the wild Venusian jungle, leaving Margot behind.
As Margot screams and cries in the closet, knowing that she is missing the only chance at seeing the sun for the next seven years, the children laugh and play, absorbing the fleeting moments of sunshine. Then the thunder booms and a raindrop is felt.
As the children file back into the underground world, relishing the time in the warmth of the sun, one of them remembers Margot. They stop and open the door to let out the now silent and completely devastated Margot.
