A heat storm rages around the deer stand. The lightning strikes a tree nearby, and it starts smoking and burning. Sam tries to get the ladder down so they can get out of the tree, but he drops it right before a bolt of lightning strikes the tree next to them, narrowly escaping electrocution. Once the storm passes, Sam hangs out of the tree and then lets go. He drops to the ground and gets the ladder so that Delphy can climb down. She gets out of the tree just in time; the deer stand goes up in flames.
When they get to the Jeep, Sam and Delphy are horrified to see a black bear sitting in the back seat of the Jeep.
Delphy walks over to the Jeep and uses her crutch to honk the horn. The bear bolts at the sound, fleeing into the forest. Sam and Delphy continue to drive along the logging road until the Jeep sputters and dies once more. It is out of gas again. Delphy suggests that they walk on ahead. They follow the logging road until they see a long blue lake.
