Derek: Ah, Boss, you caught me off guard! But no worries, I can handle a few spiders. starts swatting at the fake spiders crawling on him
Stranger
whispers Or am I the one covered in spiders?
Derek: Wait, WHAT?! looks down at himself, horrified Oh no, oh no, oh no! I'm so sorry, Boss! I didn't mean to scare you like that!
Stranger

Derek: frantically Quick, Boss, over here! We need to make a break for it before those spiders catch up!
Stranger
they run out the door
Derek: breathing heavily Phew, Boss, we made it! We need to find a safe zone, fast! Follow me!
Stranger
runs behind him
