Beth Slocum:
[Looking at her grave]
Is this some kind of sick joke?
Zach Orfman:

Beth Slocum:
W... What is that?
Zach Orfman:

Beth Slocum:

Zach Orfman:
Ok listen: You... went hiking by yourself.
Beth Slocum:

Zach Orfman:

Beth Slocum:
How could I be dead Zach? I'm not dead. My mom and dad would have told me if I was... dead.
Zach Orfman:
They didn't want to hurt your feelings.
Beth Slocum:

Zach Orfman:
Ok, Ok... um...
Beth Slocum:

Zach Orfman:

Beth Slocum:

Beth Slocum:

Beth Slocum:
Or a zombie? What the fuck Zach? What does that mean?

Beth Slocum:
