MATTHEW
Come on.
HANNAH stands up with MATTHEW's help.
MATTHEW
There you are.
HANNAH
Matthew.
MATTHEW
Uh-huh?
HANNAH
I'm s-s-sorry.
MATTHEW
I don't blame you for nothing. But no more arguing. Understand?
HANNAH
Yes, s-s-sir.
MATTHEW
That's better.
MATTHEW and HANNAH kiss.
HANNAH
I h-h-hope they...they freeze to death.
MATTHEW
Don't say things like that. It doesn't matter anymore anyhow. We're leaving.
HANNAH
I h-hope they die and we find the Gr...the gem without them...b-b-bastards.
MATTHEW
Hannah! Don't you tell me my cursing's staring to rub off on--
A red glow emits from offstage as the two are kissing. HANNAH, suddenly healed, is the first to notice.
