Opening shot of Chris talking.
The name of the chapter, Jealousy/Darkness, and nine hours until dawn.
Chris: Man I feel like this mountain gets bigger every time I climb it.
Josh: Oh yeah? Feels the same to me.
(The game introduces Josh as Hannah and Beth's brother, and is complex, thoughtful, and loving.)
(The game introduces Beth as Hannah and Josh's sister, and is protective, loyal, and loving.)
Chris: Oh come on, you grew up here. It probably feels like it's shrinking.
Josh: I guess that's true.
Chris raises his phone.
Chris: When you gonna install some cell towers up here? I'm getting withdrawals already.
Josh: You got a spare million lying around and I'll fix you right up.
Chris: Funny you should say that... Ah I think I left it in my other jacket.
Josh: Oops.
Chris, Josh, and Sam walk up to the foot of the lodge and see Ashley and Beth sitting down on the stairs and Matt and Maddie.
Josh: Hey guys... Get up here okay?
Ashley: Yeah... well more or less. But it's so good to see you!
Josh: 'Sup with him?
Matt stands looking upset and does not converse.
Maddie: Yeah it was pretty easy... a little creepy though... I mean, it's just really weird being back here.
The camera moves from behind a tree and Josh and Chris walk upstairs, Matt walks away from the stairs, and Ashley, Maddie, and Beth stay sitting. There is heavy breathing.
Chris: Yo yo yo! Are we gonna get things moving up here or what?
Josh: Yeah man!
Chris: So Matt and Emily are a thing now, right?
Josh: Yeah, so it seems.
Chris: I mean, what's Mike think of that?
Josh: I have a feeling Mike's already got his hands full... you know what I mean?
Chris: Huh. Hey... you doin' alright? I mean it must be really tough without your sis-
Josh: Stop.
Chris: I just meant that-
Josh: No I know what you meant. You know, seriously, I'm over it, and I just want us to have a really good time, you know? Like we always used to.
Josh tries to open the lock of the lodge's front door.
Josh: Dammit... This freaking thing...
Chris: It's iced?
Josh: What else?
Chris: Maybe there's another way in.
Josh: There are a milion ways in. They're just all locked.
Chris: There's gotta be, like, a window round the corner we can get, like, "get open" or something.
Josh: Wait a second, are you saying we should break in?
Chris: I don't think it's technically breaking in if you own the place, right?
Josh: Hey. Not if I don't report you.
Chris: Umm...
Josh: Lead the way, Cochise.
