We did roll these before we left though

HAWKINS:
FRESH ANF FLOPPY FISH
AWWWW YEAAAAHHHH (Hype)
28
DUNN:
Has anyone seen my Duplicate Journal?
O.Gs got it.
29
SUMNER:
Then in the winter, we would ice-fish.
Sounds like a nightmare. I hate the cold.
30
SUMNER:
That´s how I wanna go.
Once when my brother and I were very young
We were out in front our house playing the snow
With a boy who lived one or two miles from us
When our mother rang the dinner bell
We asked if we could have our friend for dinner
But she said no, so
We ran back inside
And then four or five days later
They found our little neighbor friend on the side of the road
They say he froze to death while walking home
31
O.G:
I gotta take a leak.
Okay. I´ll finish your fish, O.G.
32
HAWKINS:
Just make sure it´s behind a tree somewhere so we won´t see the smoke.
You insinuating something about my brother?
33
HALL:
Fish down! Fish down!
Hawkins, you shouldn´t get into my brother´s business.

All:

O.G.! I´m good.
52
DUNN:

Sure.
53
O.G: We could have found other banks.
Why didn´t we try to portage again?
54
HAWKINS: Food´s up
We lost a bunch of shit in our boat. All I´m saying.
55
ACT II
O.G We coulda used you out there on that hunt today, Dunn.
We couldn´t get a clear hit on anything. Good thing Goodman used the sack.
56
HALL:
They don´t. It´s this or higher til we get to the Big Canyon.
Today Oramel and I built the fire and watched over the camp.
And when we were gathering wood we found a few old pots and pans
And splintered siding that looked like the siding of an old boat.
57
O.G: We believe it is the remains of Ashley´s crew.
Are you reading the Omens? Cause we are. Loud and clear.
58
GOODMAN:
No, never mind, I´m alright.
Wanted to say something, British?
59
GOODMAN:
Here´s to an excellent run on the river tomorrow!
Hear Hear!!

A maze of rocks!
Rocks!

MAID OF THE CANYON? KITTY GLYDE`S SISTER:
Emma Dean OVERBOARD
Look alive! Look alive! LOOK ALIVE!
64
ALL BOATS:
WHERE ARE THEY
THERE THEY ARE
65
BRADLEY:
Hey guys!
Wait. Sumner! There he is. SUMNER.
66
OLD SHADY:
John Wesley!
Sumner! Sumner! C´ mere buddy come on
67
SUMNER:
The boat tipped too much.
Shhhh you´re okay.
68
BRADLEY:
I See Goodman!!! He´s on that rock!
Rock! Head toward the Rock!
69
JOHNSON
I´m Johnson.
Just Jim.
70
POWELL:
Utes up here though.
Well. You know. They´re a little ways down the road. And they´re kinda sick n tired of dealin with people like you.
71
JOHNSON:
People come around with designs on things
and they´re doin us a favor so we´re doing them a favor by talking to you.
72
POWELL:
So, you know the Utes?
Yeah, we know the Utes. Do you?
73
POWELL:
Well, some of us do-
You just wanna write about em in your journal.
74
JOHNSON:
Great view.
When I first saw it, I was pretty stoked. Felt like you. You come up from the river, you see it all, you have designs on things.
75
JOHNSON:
You can´t get too greedy, can you?
Can you?
76
SUMNER:
Where is the nearest Mormon settlement?
Heh. Mormons
77
JOHNSON:
We´ll give you a horse. No problem
You guys need anything else?
78
POWELL:
NO, I think that´s
You´re not hungry or anything like that?
79
JOHNSON:
Get our farming off the ground
Yeah, we´re getting our farming off the ground. We´re emerging farmers
80
POWELL:
We´ve lost a lot of provisions-
Oooh. Wow. That´s unexpected, huh?
81
JOHNSON:
Yeah how were you guys planning on dealing with that?
You guys have contingency? Or…
82
JOHNSON:
No that´s-
We thought you were “Professional Boat People.”
83
JOHNSON: Like Ashley. Remember him?
Just like Ashley.
84
JOHNSON:
The Government
The Government. Wow, pretty official.
Our friends down the road? They just love the Government, don´t they? Government treats them so well.
And so the very generous goodhearted government didn´t give you guys a contingency plan or really any sort of safety net in the event of lost provisions, which, let´s face it. Probably inevitable. Seems like your Government mission is more an afterthought. But hey, we got crops and things.
85
JOHNSON
That enough for you?
Yeah, melons, turnips, potatoes.
You can take a bunch of that.
That enough for you?
86
JOHNSON:
So some of the stuff could be really rotten.
As long as you´re ok with that, we´re ok with that.
87
GOODMAN:
Well then
Sound like you made the right decision. To get out while you can.
88
GOODMAN:
Well I am, yes, I´m very-
Don´t feel bad about quittin them. It´s good on you. That river ain´t for them to claim.
I don´t like what´s happenin around here. Not one bit.
I´ll bring your horse over.
89
BRADLEY:
It´s shifting
Shifting, steady.
90
BRADLEY:
Holy Cow! The walls are rising.
Watch what´s in front of you Bradley.
91
Hug the wall
Hug the wall.
92
Balance
Bradley, keep center. Keep on the wall.
93
Yikes!
Rock bed
94
Oar Lost!
Bradley! Keep your oar to the side!
95
No I thought I was center!
Shady just lost his oar move to the side
96
WHOAAAAAAOAH
Bradley? Steady. Bradley wait. Bradley stop. Bradley stiffen up.
97
Bradley
Bradley overboard
98
Kitty Clyde slow down!
Too fast our boat is going too fast we can´t slow down Bradley is nagging.

We don´t have any shovels
What about an oar?

Against us
Too bad we can´t sleep in the trees like Sumner.

We currently hold
We have about five percent chance of survival

O.G now´s not the time
118
It´s never the time
Shiny apples. Pass em around.
119
Mealy

One time when we were little
Our parents tied our hands to the fencepost
At nightfall and said
121
Anything

122

They are waterfalls.
123
Please, take them, Dunn.
You guys need the strength to keep going here.
