[Intro — Quiet Night] NATHAN: One more problem, one more question, One more thing that doesn’t make sense. HARMONY: One more possibility, one more angle, One more thing I haven’t seen yet. NATHAN: There has to be an answer. HARMONY: There has to be another way. BOTH: Let’s find it. [Verse 1 — Nathan] Numbers on the page, every variable in place, I’ve traced the pattern backward, I’ve calculated every case. If there’s a problem, there’s a reason, If there’s a reason, there’s a way. Give me enough information And I’ll find the missing piece today. I’ve checked it twice, I’ve checked it three times, Still something doesn’t fit. HARMONY: Maybe you’re looking at the answer Instead of looking at the question. NATHAN: What does that mean? HARMONY: It means you’re missing something. NATHAN: I’m not missing anything. HARMONY: You’re missing something. [Verse 2 — Harmony] I’ve got a different kind of puzzle, One that doesn’t fit a chart. Sometimes understanding something Means looking beyond the parts. A number doesn’t tell a story, A fact doesn’t tell you why. Sometimes what you’re looking for Is hiding in plain sight. I’ve turned it over, I’ve turned it around, Still something doesn’t fit. NATHAN: Maybe you’re looking at the answer Instead of looking at the question. HARMONY: Oh, so now you understand? NATHAN: I was going to say that. HARMONY: You weren’t. NATHAN: I was. [Pre-Chorus] NATHAN: I’ve got a theory— HARMONY: I’ve got a plan— NATHAN: I’ve got the pieces— HARMONY: I’ve got the parts— BOTH: But something’s still missing From the middle of the start. Maybe we’re looking too closely, Maybe we’re looking too far. Maybe the answer isn’t hiding Where we think the answers are. [Chorus] BOTH: There’s more than we know, More than we see, More than a single answer Waiting patiently. There’s more than we know, More than we planned, Sometimes you find the missing piece When somebody takes your hand. I thought I had the answer, You thought you had it too. Maybe what we’re looking for Is something more than me and you. There’s more than we know, More than we see, More than we could ever know! [Rhythmic Section] NATHAN: Check the data, check the pattern, Check the numbers, check the facts. If the first approach doesn’t work, Then I go and double back. Cause and effect, connect the dots, Find the point where everything stops. If there’s a missing piece, Then I’ll locate it. If there’s a problem, Then I’ll solve it. HARMONY: Look at the picture, not just the frame, Changing the question can change the game. You can measure every number, You can map every line, But you can’t understand the answer If you never ask why. Step back. Look again. Find the part you missed. Maybe what you need Isn’t something on the list. NATHAN: So what’s your answer? HARMONY: I’m still figuring it out. NATHAN: Then we’re in the same place. HARMONY: Exactly. [Instrumental Break — Dance Sequence] [Vocals disappear.] [Music: Deep bass, tight percussion, electronic pulses, rhythmic piano, sharp orchestral hits.] [Nathan and Harmony move around their workspaces, passing ideas, rearranging materials, writing, testing, crossing paths.] [The ensemble appears in shadowed silhouettes around them.] [The choreography becomes increasingly synchronized.] [Nathan’s movement is precise and mathematical. Harmony’s movement is fluid and unpredictable.] [Their styles gradually begin matching.] [The beat drops.] [BOOM.]. [Everything stops.] [Bridge — Quiet] NATHAN: I thought I had to solve it alone. HARMONY: I thought I had to understand it alone. NATHAN: Maybe that’s why we kept getting stuck. HARMONY: Maybe. NATHAN: You saw something I couldn’t. HARMONY: And you found something I missed. BOTH: Maybe we’re better together. [Final Chorus — Full Production] BOTH: There’s more than we know, More than we see, More than a single answer Could ever be. There’s more than we know, More than we planned, Sometimes the missing piece Was right there in our hands. NATHAN: I had the numbers— HARMONY: I had the why— NATHAN: You saw the question— HARMONY: You found the line— BOTH: And somewhere between us We finally found the way. What neither one could see alone Was waiting here today. ENSEMBLE: More than we know! More than we see! More than we ever thought The answer could be! BOTH: More than one mind Could ever understand! There’s more than we know! More than we see! And there’s so much more When we discover it together! [Outro] NATHAN: So… you think we solved it? HARMONY: I think we started figuring it out. NATHAN: That’s not very satisfying. HARMONY: It’s honest. NATHAN: Fair enough. HARMONY: Besides… there’s always another question. NATHAN: Now you’re speaking my language. [Music rises into a final shimmering chord.]
