Tilt up to dark jungle set from pov inside cave/pit. Tilt down to the group of safari people with token girl. One of the men helps the girl - she stumbles. all are dirty and a bit roughed up - they have apparently fallen into this pit. The group looks up and around, they talk - the girl hugs the man who's holding her up. One man steps out of formation - grabs another by the shoulders and yells at him - camera zooms in. The blocking and camera angles and movement are all very stiff and contrived.
