All right'

It's not a race!

Come on. Hup two!

I think I wore the wrong shoes.

You'll be fine.

What's a dog doing down there?

Help! Help me!

There's your answer.

Hello?

Hi. What's your name?

Charlene.

Hey Charlene. Are, are you hurt?

Yes! It's my ankle, I twisted it.

Okay honey, just... just

sit tight, all right?

Okay!

Are we' are we gonna go for help?

No, it's too late. There's you know,

there's bears and mountain lions out here.

I'm pretty sure that I

can get her out of here.

Pretty sure or certain?

No, I can do it.

Don't we need like

a... rope or something?

No. I can't hike down

here but I can scramble.

No, look... I'll, I'll go.

No, hey Kent you know what?

It's, it's not the right time

to learn how to scramble. Okay? Hey Charlene,

just hold on I'm coming down to get you!

And Natty?

Yeah! Of course.

Look, if anything goes

wrong, just go back the way

we came and grab help, okay?

I don't feel good about this, Mary.

Kent, I wouldn't do it if I thought

it was too dangerous. All right?

- Be careful.

- Okay.

Watch it.

Yeah, okay.

Hang on Charlene! Okay!

Got it.

Hi! I'm Mary. I'm Mary Tobin.

So how did you get down here?

Well, Natty chased a

rabbit and got stuck.

I came down to get him.

Ifs okay Natty I needed a bath anyways.

Natty!

Where are your parents?

I live with my dad over the ridge.

He'd kill me if he knew

I was out here all alone.

Yeah' he must be, he must be

worried sick about you, huh?

He went into town to get some nails and

stuff, he's probably not even back yet.

He's probably not even back yet.

You're not gonna tell on me, right?

No, you know, that's uh...

that's up for you to tell him but,

you just remember that the truth is

always a good place to begin, okay?

- Okay.

- Here, let me have a look at your ankle.

Okay, okay. That's okay. All

right, you can't walk out of here.

Do you think you've got enough strength

to climb onto me and I'll bring you up?

Yeah.

And Natty's gonna follow us,

all right? One, two, three!

- There you go. You're doing awesome!

- Okay.

- You're doing so good.

- Okay.

I want you just to hang on to me.

Okay, now three, two, one,

and just jump on. There you go.

All right, Kent we're coming up!

- All right, you good?

- Yes.

Okay, here we go.
