Satellite phone

I call out of the wilderness on the satellite phone.
I have only a few minute window.

Mom gives the phone to dad.

Shana, I'm not crazy but I'm in this place
and I can't get out and....

Dad, listen to mom
She will help you
I will help you...

And I'm trying to save us all....

Phone jostles

Okay, dad is not on the phone anymore.
It's been one of those days.
She tries not to cry.
She fails.

My phone won't last, mom.
Please call Jason. Have him talk to dad.
Are you okay?

I'm alone in the wilderness
my mom is crying
and I cannot help her.
