Explanation:

Stage directions in a play are instructions for actors' actions, movements, or expressions, often in parentheses or brackets. In the options, "SHERIFF (looking about). It's just the same." has "(looking about)" which is a stage direction indicating the Sheriff's action. The other options are just dialogue without such instructions.

Answer:

A. SHERIFF (looking about). It's just the same.
