They knew their carriage was in a tree, but they didn't know what condition it was. Someone had to get out of the carriage for them to find out. Dorothy was chosen for the role because she was light weight.
Dorothy crawled across the carriage floor (the upside-down carriage ceiling).
Suddenly the carriage tilted to the right. "Wow!" The women cried However, it tilted only slightly, and soon subsided and stabilized.
"Shit!" said the square-faced man.
"I'm sorry," Dorothy apologized.
"Don't worry about it," comforted Mr. Miller. "No one is angry with you. Is that right, Mr. Gillespie?"
"Yes," said Mr. Gillespie. His red-haired wife also added. "My husband speaks foul language."
Dorothy crawled forward again.
Mrs. Miller wanted to replace Dorothy if possible. But she couldn't because she was fat. Instead, she gave Dorothy a voice of encouragement.
"Don't overdo it. If you think it's impossible, you can turn back."
Mrs. Miller was saying this out of concern for Dorothy, but on the contrary, it disturbed Dorothy's concentration. But Dorothy repeatedly replied, "Thank you. I'll do my best."
