If the hiding place somehow sucked up the players and the last one has to decide to run away or get sucked up, too.

Suzanne Palmieri

When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping."

Or was it that sharing my fate made her feel less guilt-ridden about those things that happened to me?

Just concentrate on what you're doing. Think about now.
