BRIAN

So… you guys want me to stay here and stand guard?

BROOKE

(installing the lever)

We’re all going down. See what we can find that might clear Zeke.

ZEKE

C’mon, Brian.

BRIAN

I don’t know about this. I’m not sure I’m comfortable—

BROOKE

Hey… come on—for me? I mean us. For us.

BRIAN

Ok. For you. (steps onto platform)

ZEKE

Seriously?

(ZEKE pulls the lever and down they go. Lights shift as the elevator descends.)

ALL

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

ZEKE

Don’t worry, Brian. First time’s the hardest. Feel free to scream some more if you need to.

BROOKE

Zeke!

BRIAN

I’m fine.

(the elevator comes to a stop)

BRIAN

What is this place?
