--description--

The verb sound means to give an impression of something when heard or described. When talking about how something seems, based on what you have heard, you use sounds for the third person singular (it).

In the dialogue, Tom uses sounds after hearing Sophie's description of Maria's responsibilities. This form is correct because Tom is talking about one specific thing (Maria's role), which is considered a singular subject.

That is why he says That sounds important instead of That sound important.
