your end of the bargain.

I said maybe.

Yeah, yeah, whatever.

Wh-What-

What are you doing?

I'm strapping you in.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

Not gonna happen.

What? You think you're

just gonna sit in the chair

And that's enough?

Come on, just get up,

And I'll sit

in the damn thing.

No, no!

Strap me in.

All right, good boy.

Sam, can you help me

strap him in?

Uh, I don't think so.

Come on, help

your sister out...

Please?

Are you sure

this is such a good idea?

Shh, just do it.

Yeah, shh.

Okay,

you strapped me in.

Now get me out of it.

You only just got in it.

[ Thunder ]

[ Lights buzzing ]

What the hell

was that?

I don't know.

Just-Just get me

out of this chair.

Been sitting here

long enough.

You just got in it.

You're gonna have to stay in it

longer than two seconds

If you want

your little prize.

I don't care! Just get me

out of this chair!

Oh, my god,

You're really scared,

aren't you?

Get me out

of this chair, jerry!

[ Lights buzzing ]

[ Thunder ]

Get me out

of the f***ing chair!

God, you are such a p*ssy.

Calm down.

- Jerry, let's just untie him.

- F*** you!

It's not funny anymore.

He's being ridiculous.

[ Thunder ]

Aah! Get me out of here!

Get me out!

- What is going on?

- Calm down! Calm down!

What is going on?

Tony:

Aah! Aah! Get me out!

Aah! Get me out of here!

Do you hear that?

I don't hear anything.

No, no, I'm serious.

Wait.

Listen.

Tony:

Aah! Get me out!

Oh, my god!

Who is that?

It sounds like tony.

Did they

come down here?

Maybe they're

looking for us.

- [ Thunder ]

- Help me! Help me!

- Okay!

- Aah!

What is up?

I don't know!

[ Thunder ]

[ Tony screaming ]

No.

It's stuck.

Aah! What is that?

Oh...

Back up. Stay back.

Hey! Hey, back up, man!

[ Tony screaming ]

Back off!

I'm gonna kill you.

Swear to god,

I'm gonna cut you.

Ha ha!

Whoa! It's me!

It's me, man!

[ Laughs ]

What the hell

are you doing?

I was just gonna

scare everyone.

But then

I heard tony screaming,

And, well,

I heard you guys, too,

So I was gonna

come get you.

You're a f***ing idiot.

Idiot.

I was just joking, man.

- [ Thunder ]

- [ Screaming ]

How about now?

I can't!

Mine's stuck!

[ Tony screaming ]

Aah! God!

- Tony!

- Johnny!

Aah! Get these things

off of me!

Get me out of here!

- [ Thunder ]

- Aah!

You b*tches!

You almost killed me!

Bro! Bro,

you f***ing saved me!

You b*tches!

You almost killed me!

What are you guys

doing here?

We're looking for you,

a**hole!

Dude, I was strapped

into this thing

And the storm came out,

And they

almost killed me!

Yeah, okay,

are you all right?

Is everyone okay?

F***.

Let's get the hell

out of here.

You guys couldn't wait

to get to the campsite, huh?

That's pretty pathetic.

That's 'cause I don't

f*** everything that walks.

[ Crows cawing ]

Uh, does this part

of the country

Always have

sudden storms like that?

I've never seen

anything like this before.

[ Whistling ]

See ya later!

All right.

Yo! What have you

been doing, man?

Smoke some more weed?

I'm fine.

Sure? You don't

look that good.

Mind your

own f***ing business!

Just don't ruin the

weekend for the rest of us.

Keys.

Know what?

Natasha's gonna

sit in the front.

Babe.

[ Rock music playing ]

Where is everyone?

It's still early.

Probably start

filling up tomorrow.

Let's just

keep driving then.

I want to be as far away

from any kids and crowds

As possible this weekend.

Told you guys

it was nice, huh?

Huh?

Damn it!

Why did we give

Johnny our phones?

Hey, I don't

like it either.

You know, if you want

your phone so bad,

You can go

ask him for it.

Keep looking.

It's as close

as you'll ever get.

That's everything.

- Is it?

- Yeah.

Hey, I'm missing a bag.

Somebody else grab it

by accident?

Bet it fell off

when that stoner

Flicked that pipe

into Johnny's lap.

- Hey!

- [ Cough ]

[ Coughs, groans ]

You all right, Kyle?

[ Groans ]

He'll be okay for now.

Come on,

I'll drive you back.

What happened?

- He punched me.

- [ Engine starting ]

- He punched you?

- Uh-Huh.

Samantha:
Kyle is

such a creeper.

Why'd

we even bring him?

[ Hits rock ]

[ Splash ]

You setting this up

on your own?

I'm gonna mess

with Kyle.

[ Laughs ]

Perfect idea.

Wait, let's just-

Looks like he's having

a nightmare or something.

Aah!

Freaking freak!

Aah!

Jerry:
[ laughs ] oh, god.

This is too perfect.

Couple more. Hold on.

Okay.

Is he up?

[ Laughing ]

[ Both laughing ]

Oh, my god!

[ Laughing ]

oh, is he still out?

[ Thump ]

[ Laughs ] man.

What?

Just everything

that's happened so far.

Kyle burning me,

almost crashing,

Going into

that crazy asylum,

Getting locked

in the morgue,

Tony almost getting

electrocuted.

He didn't almost

get electrocuted.

[ Thump ]

[ Splash ]

Look, Tony's

just a big baby.

He acts like he's all tough,

but he's really not.

Tony's tough.

I've seen him

do some damage.

No, he's not like you.

Like when heath

was coming after us

In that stupid

Halloween costume,

You didn't

know who it was,

But you pulled out

your knife,

And you pushed me

behind you.

That's 'cause

you're my baby girl.

It was

really brave of you.

I think that you deserve

to be rewarded

For your heroism.

Mmm.

I mean,

I'm not one to brag,

But, like,

I was pretty brave.

[ Laughing ]

Okay, okay.

Let's get this zipped up

real quick.

All right,

that's not working.

Oh, that's

not working, either.

There we go.

[ Natasha laughing ]

I hope I don't have too much

trouble with your zipper.

You okay?

You been kind of quiet.

Why are you

suddenly not talking?

You're funny, tony.

All right,

look, we're coming up

On the cemetery here

in a minute.

Your bag probably

just rolled off

To the side

of the road, yeah?

Okay.

Thank you so much

for helping me.

Yeah.

Oh, hey,

there it is.

All right, get ready

to hold your breath.

Gotcha.

[ Exhales ]

What's the matter

with you?

[ Hammer pounding stake ]

[ SUV horn honks

in the distance ]

Somebody's angry.

Sounds like it.

Hey, Sam and tony

back yet?

No, they're not,

actually.

Oh, yeah?

How long has it been?

It's been a while.

They should be back.

You want to go up

to the road?

You think

they're still up there?

I don't know,

But beats

sitting around here.

Should we

ask them to come?

[ Johnny and Natasha

laughing ]

Johnny:
Oh, oh, don't.

No, don't tickle me,

please, too.

[ Natasha laughing ]

Nah, looks

like they're busy.

[ Groans ]

[ Coughs ]

Okay, I'm really starting

to freak out now.

Yeah,

let's go get Johnny.

Okay.

Hey, guys!

Where you two been?

Up at the road

looking for Samantha.

Natasha:

They didn't come back?

No.

You try calling them?

You are

such an a**hole!

I'm just kidding.

Go get the flashlights.

Look, I'm sure

they're fine.

They probably just got

a flat tire or something.

Yeah, I hope so.

We're

gonna find them.

All right, let's go.

Wait, wait, wait.
