CHARLIE Well , uh , I felt around the walls and there were some … big boulders , and I didn ’ t want to spend a lot of time because it felt like if I moved it a lot it might fall on top of us .
NOAH Okay … So we really aren ’ t getting out of here .
I guess not .
CHARLIE
NOAH ( Noah nods , coming to terms with the fact .)
Hey , I know this doesn ’ t really matter now , but you ’ re not as bad as I assumed .
CHARLIE Thanks , I guess . I wish we ’ d talked more before now .
NOAH
Yeah . Me too .
( Sounds of rocks crumbling ) What ’ s happening ? Is it going to crumble over us ?
I don ’ t know , maybe .
CHARLIE
NOAH
This is it . This is the end . ( Light floods the stage . Prisha carefully walks on .)
Hello ?
We ’ re here !
PRISHA
NOAH
PRISHA Were you trapped here ? You know these rocks are super loose . If you ’ d just touched them , they ’ d fall and you ’ d be out .
NOAH
