We're gonna start with the one

It's okay.

I'm sorry.

Hold the other one.

It's okay. I'm here.

Stace.

There's more of it. There's more.

Right here. Under. Under the muscle,

like by the bone there.

There's nothing there, Stacy.

- Yes, can we cut it?

- There's no more cutting.

I wanna cut it. I wanna cut it.

Hey! You can't. You can't keep cutting.

Why do you keep saying that to me?

Here, this might help.

Amy, did you see it?

You saw it, didn't you?

You saw it in my head. I felt it.

Amy.

Amy, please tell me.

Stacy, Stacy...

- You saw it?

- It's okay.

- You saw it? Did you see it?

- No, I... There's nothing there.

There's nothing there, okay? I swear.

It's in my head. I feel it, you guys.

- Let's move her in the tent.

- Okay.

No one's coming. I'm going tonight.

I wanna cut it.

I wanna cut it. I wanna cut it.

I wanna cut it. I wanna cut it.

I wanna cut it.

Stacy, what are you doing?

Oh, my God!

It's okay. It's okay.

I just...

I just have to get this one out.

It's okay.

Just have to get this one.

Amy, I didn't mean to! I'm sorry!

It hurts.

Kill me!

Kill me! Kill me! Kill me!

Once you're past the clearing,

you run as fast as you can, okay?

Okay?

When you get to the Jeep,

you don't wait for anything. Anything.

And if these don't work, then you run,

and you don't stop

until you reach the town.

You promise me that

you'll still be here?

Okay.

You don't even know her name.

You don't know any of our names.

I'm Jeff.

Jeff Dean MacIntyre.

Winnetka, Illinois.

Twenty-two years old.

I was gonna be a doctor.

That was my dream.

That's all I wanted.

You should know her name, too.

Her name

is Amy!

And she is not gonna die

on this f***ing hill!

Jeff!

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Please.

Okay.

Okay.

- Dimitri!

- Dimitri!

Dimitri!
