The seventh horse

Ronald, Sofia, Karen and Harly arrive on the public canal path. Tony rides on Ronald’s shoulder. The courier has stayed with Enzo to report the parcel theft and give his account. A small fictional exhibition boat is moored alongside the quay. The real horse stands on a table aboard, visible through an open canopy. Ordinary canal-front houses only; the arch is not here. Valli and a bearded adult male buyer in beige jacket are on the boat. Enzo and the courier remain at the workshop.
Later, beside the canal.

Valli addresses a potential buyer beside the table. He rests his hand protectively on the horse’s rectangular base.
Valli: A unique piece. Complete and ready to go.

Sofia stands on the quay, clearly outside the boat.
Sofia: Then you won’t mind showing us how it works.

Valli sees Ronald and the others. His smile disappears. Karen stays a few steps back, speaking to the police on her phone and identifying the boat’s visible name.
Valli: This is a private viewing.

The buyer steps away from the table, unwilling to proceed while ownership is disputed. Valli snatches up the horse and heads towards the gangway.
Buyer: We’re not buying anything until this is sorted out.
