Brandon: So, what about that trip?
Jesse: Yeah. We're going to a cavern park. You know, with caves, mining, and zip lines.
At cavern park:
Al: This is so cool! (Hanging from climbing rope )
Sarah: Yeah!
Mike, Joe, and Tess are preparing lunch at a table.
While the kids are enjoying their time, two brothers around the age of Sarah & Al are arguing.
Jesse: Take it easy, guys. We're all attached to the same line.
The boys don't listen and continue to argue, swing around, and tug on the ropes; which they were warned not to do....until one of the pulleys attached to the rope breaks. Jesse is between the two boys. He grabs one of the boys, takes out his pocket knife, cuts the boy's rope, and switches ropes with the boy. The boy is now hanging from Jesse's rope. Then, Jesse attaches the boys together to stay put until help arrives.
Jesse: Don't move!
Unfortunately, Jesse is now hanging from a broken pulley, which starts to give up from the top. Jesse is stuck as he cannot detach himself from the rope, the attachment clamp is stuck. He uses his knife to cut the rope to free himself before the pulley completely breaks.
Boy #1: This is your fault! (tugging the rope)
Boy #2: No, it's not! (tugging back)
As the boys tug the rope, Jesse's rope is pulled upward pulling him towards the rocks and wrapping tightly around his thigh. He hits his head and drops the knife from the impact. Now, the pulley is completely coming off and is taking down part of the rocks.
Emergency team: Help is on the way!
Jesse: Took you long enough.
There is a pond under Jesse. He decides to jump down before the rocks come down on him, taking him down the hard way. The emergency team helps all the kids get down safely and help Jesse out of the water.
Tess: Oh my gosh! Are you ok?
Jesse: I think so. This rope is really tight.
Emergency team: We'll help you get that off and check you for any injuries.
Emergency medical services examine Jesse for any injuries, remove the rope around his thigh, and dress the wound on his head.
Joe: That was....
Jesse: Crazy? Yeah, and I thought last week was bad (holding bag of ice).
Mike: At least everybody is ok.
Park police: Here, we believe this belongs to you (handing Jesse his knife).
Joe: I thought that was staying in your room?
Jesse: It saved the day didn't it?
Park police: We have examined the equipment. It seems that the equipment has been tampered with. This gear was made to withstand harsh treatment in case someone didn't obey the rules, like today.
Joe: Tampered with?
Park police: Yes. Someone messed with the equipment to purposely cause an incident. We are working on figuring out who this is, why they did it, and whom this was meant for.
Joe: Thank you for your service, sir.
Park police: Are you sure you're alright?
Jesse: Yeah, I'm fine. This will be gone in a few days (pointing to his wound), it's not the worst I've had.
