By the way—my voice?—He might recognise it!
(He loosens a hand and makes the motion of turning a key.)

GUICHE (looking at the house).
Here's the house!
(He is about to enter, but Cyrano springs from the balcony while holding on to the branch; the latter bends and lets him down between Guiche and the door. He affects to fall heavily, as if from a great height, remaining crushed and dazed. Guiche jumps back.)
What is this?
