00:00Mom, I really want to go home.
00:04I'm feeling bad.
00:08How was your journey?
00:10Very pleasant, thank you.
00:11Good.
00:12Gretchen, come say hi.
00:16Sup.
00:18I'm your neighbor.
00:20Haven't heard about you.
00:23Why would you have heard about me?
00:31How would you like to come work for me at the resort?
00:37This happens sometimes.
00:42You look like you don't belong here.
00:46Why is there nobody working the reception after 10?
00:50I want you to lock the doors and wait for me. I will come pick you up right now.
01:00If I were you, I wouldn't want to get hurt even more.
01:21Why did you bring us here?
01:23Your family belongs here.
01:27That's a fucking weird way to put it.
01:31You told the police that you were chased by a woman.
01:35They think I'm crazy.
01:44Nature is quite remarkable.
01:49Oh, it feels so good.
01:53We have to go.
01:56Some species need our help.
02:01I'm giving you the chance to be of great use in our quest for preservation.
02:16Consider yourself lucky.
