(air whooshing)

Ell: [turns to the screen] Ah, winter. Yes, a perfectly normal snowy winter in England. Yep, nothing unusual about that.

Tamara: [slurps drink] Yes, nuclear winter really helps with global warming. [slurps drink while Ell's eyes widen in shock before staring at her]

[Screen cuts to a boy sliding to the edge of the hill]

Kid: Oh dear. [tries to scoot away from the edge]

Matilda: I'll help you. [begins to push the kid toward the edge]

Kid: No, please. It's too steep. Please no.

Matilda: (slowed down) I'm helping.

[Kid falls, screaming]

''[Matilda dusts her hands and looks at something else before her expression changes. She stares at a sign which says 'HAPPY HILL SKI SLOPE! The safest hill on earth!' before turning to another that says 'DEATH DROP. GO BACK'. She looks between these two signs back and forth, getting seemingly pressured]''

Matilda: [shrugs] Eh.

[Screen cuts to Ell and Tamara looking down the hill]

Tamara: That's a lot steeper than I thought it was.

Ell: Huh. Wouldn't it be funny if we went down this side instead?

Matilda: Let's do this. [starts sliding down the hill] Last one down pays the rent!

Tamara: We pay rent?

Ell: That does explain the letters.
