[snow road on the mountain, a car driving through the road; inside the car are sitting Nicole and next to her Ryan; behind them Cady and next to her Sophie; Cady is playing on her Ipad, but Sophie is looking throw the window and watching snow and mountain happily] 

Cady's toy: Hmm, jelly berries makes me feel good. 

[Cady laughing, Sophie rolling her eyes] 

Nicole: Cady, Sophie, look. We're almost at the top of the mountain. Can you see the hotel? 

Cady's toy: Well, that's interesting. Do you know what else is interesting? 

[Sophie sighing] 

Nicole: I thought we were gonna limit screen time to thirty minutes a day. 

Ryan: What are you telling me for, I didn't give it to her. 

Nicole: I really can't believe that Sophie is not like that. 

Ryan: Just because they're sisters doesn't mean they're all the same. Cady prefers that toy and Ipad, Sophie prefers nature, can we please get used to it? 

Nicole: I'm just saying, I think... Cady, can you turn it down, please?  

[Cady turning her Ipad down, Sophie putting her hands up for a short while] 

Sophie (whispering): Thank God. 

Nicole: If we make rules, we need to stick to them. 

Ryan: If she wasn't on that, she'd be climbing all over. 

Nicole: So, you would rather she sat there feeding a toy virtual food, until it shits itself? Cady, turn it down. 

Cady: I already did turn it down. 

Nicole: What was Gemma thinking? 

Ryan: "It's my niece's birthday. I'm gonna get her a present." 

Nicole: She works for the company that makes them. She probably didn't even have to pay for shipping. Honestly, what is the purpose of a toy if you have to play with it on an Ipad?

Ryan: This is what the future looks like, okay? You just have to get used to it. 

[car sliding on a snowy road; Sophie and Cady hitting themselves upon car's door] 

Nicole: Oh, my God! 

Ryan: We're all right. 

Nicole: We should've put chains on the car. 

Ryan: Neither of us knew that was a thing until, like, ten minutes ago, okay? Don't act like it's my fault. 

[car sliding again, this time harder] 

Nicole: Oh, my God! Ryan! Seriously! 

Ryan: What do you want me to do!? 

[Cady notices her toy falling to the floor of the car] 

Cady: Mom, I dropped Leroy. 

Nicole: Why did you tell that guy at the gate this was a four-wheel drive!? 

Ryan: It looks like a four-wheel drive! 

[Cady unbuckles from the car and reaches for the toy, Sophie looking at her and their parents terrified] 

Nicole: Cady, what are you doing!? 

Ryan: Cady, put your seatbelt on! 

Nicole: Cady, Cady, Jesus Christ! 

[Nicole puts on Cady's seabelt, Cady continues to play] 

Ryan: I can't see anything. 

Nicole: So stop moving forward! 

[Ryan stops the car] 

Ryan: We can't just sit in the middle of the road. 

Nicole: Look, we'll wait for this to clear, and find some place where we can pull over and just wait for one of those snow trucks to clear the road. 

Ryan: Yeah, how long is that gonna take? 

[the train violently crashing upon a car; Cady and Sophie screaming; Ryan and Nicole die]
