Figure out a way to get out of

here and back to the cabin.

[Nikki]

Robby, just...

Just cut it.

[Ben] Just seemed like a good

spot to stop.

[Robby]

Do you believe this guy?

[Mina] You know what?

Maybe we dont need a boat.

I mean, Andre knows this area

pretty well, right?

I mean, were bound to find,

like, a village or someone or something.

[Andre]

Yeah.

- [Ben] I dont think thats a good idea.

- [Mina] Babe, we have no other choice.

[John] We dont have a lot of

choices, Ben.

[Ben]

Theres gotta be another way.

- Were gonna try.

- Well go up river...

And get cell reception and call

for help.

Rafael, up river, any way?

No.

[Andre] Well, we can try the old bridge.

You have to head three Miles east.

It should take us there.

Beyond that, we need to head, uh,

southeast for a day and a half,

maybe two.

[John]

Okay.

This way, well be closer to a village.

[Ben]

Are you sure?

Cause we cant go off on some hunch.

Its our only way out of here, man.

Andres right.

Its our only option, Ben.

[Mina] Babe, I know its dangerous,

but weve gotta get outta here.

Im tired.

I just wanna go home.

[John] Rafael, Andre, go look

for a campsite.

Come on, Jay. Come on.
