Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

Oh, my God, I'm gonna die.

Ah, piece of piss.

Oh, my God!

It's incredible.

Clear!

It's Holly.

Sh*t, move!

Holly, you do this safely,

in order, following my lead. OK?

Take it slow and easy.

Juno.

- Smart arse.

It's OK. It's OK. It's OK.

They're gone. They're gone now. Look.

One bat, two bats.

Holly, f*** off.

Which way?

There's only one way out of this chamber

and that's down the pipe.

OK.

It's a drop.

OK?

Holly, chuck us your bag.

Oh, my God!

Find anything good?

- Jesus Christ!

- Come on, let's eat.

- Holly, would you take a break?

- I just want to take a few more shots.

This cave is a lot cooler than I thought.

Hey?

Not hungry.

Are you OK?

Juno, I won't break. I'm fine.

- I asked you for this.

- I know.

Um, Sarah?

I haven't had a chance to say that I'm...

really sorry I didn't stay around longer

after the accident.

Anyway...

...we're all here for you now, OK?

Yeah.

Look, sorry. I'm feeling a bit out of it.

It's probably jet lag.

- So I'm just going to take a look around, OK?

- Yeah, OK.

Why don't you try and find us

the way through, huh?

Hey, don't go too far.

What's up with her?

She looks like she's seen a ghost.

She's fine.

I've found the next passage!

- That's it? It's a bit small, isn't it?

- Hey, hey, hey!

- I don't get this.

- What?

This is not how I imagined it

from reading the book.

That's why I don't trust books.

Leaves too much room for interpretation.

Something wrong?

- No.

- It's nothing.

I'm taking point, guys.

Careful. Just find the way through.

We'll wait here.

Sarah?

- Sh*t.

- Are you still behind me?

Yes.

Sh*t!

Sh*t!

Sarah?

Guys, it's Sarah, I think she might be stuck.

I am stuck!

All right, Sarah.

Calm down, just relax.

I can't f***ing relax.

F***, f***!

Sarah, you have to calm down and the only way

you're going to do that is to breathe.

OK, breathe slowly. Just keep breathing.

I can't. I can't.

- I can't f***ing breathe.

- Sarah, OK, listen to me.

Just listen to my voice, yeah?

Sarah, I'm coming. I'm coming back.

OK? OK.

Sarah, OK?

Listen to me, keep breathing. OK? Hey.

Hey, hey.

OK. OK. OK.

- Look here at me, Sarah, hey?

- Help me.

What are you so worried about, Sarah?

Look at me.

OK, breathe. Breathe, OK?

Hey, hey, hey. Listen to me.

- Listen to me. What are you so afraid of?

- I can't f***ing move!

You can move. Sarah, look at me, look at me.

The worst thing that could have happened to

you has already happened and you're still here.

This is just a poxy cave and there's nothing left

to be afraid of, I promise.

OK? OK?

Hey. Hey, listen, listen.

Listen to me, you'll love this one.

How do you give a lemon an orgasm?
