**Don't Panic/A Breath of Fresh Air** is the fourth chapter of *The Quarry*. It takes place on August 22, 2021 at 9-10 PM. The player controls Ryan, as the group tries to find out who attacked Nick and Abi in the woods; Emma, as she finds herself on the island and gets attacked by an unknown creature; Dylan, as he and Ryan go to the Radio Hut to contact for help; and Emma *(determinant)* again as she escapes from the island.

## Start of Chapter 4

A movement in the bushes will startle Ryan. After the first rustle, there will be a second rustle, and Ryan has the opportunity to shoot the bushes both times.

* If he doesn't shoot at all, Jacob will come out of the bushes with his hands raised.
* If he shoots the first time and only the first time, or if he misses the second shot, Jacob will yell at Ryan that he almost shot him.
* If he shoots the second time or both times, Ryan will unknowingly shoot and kill Jacob.

## 21:43

Emma is on the island vlogging on her phone about being left alone on the island. She decides to go to the treehouse to take a panoramic picture. Emma tells her fans that she doesn't want to go back to the campfire because she would look needy. As she travels to the treehouse, she introduces her fans to the island, while venting about her relationship with Jacob.

When she gets to the treehouse, she pretends that she is playing house with Jacob, and finds supplies that she doesn't recognize. While inspecting, she hears a noise from up above.

* Emma checks the bag
* Emma opens the trapdoor
 If Emma checks the bag first, she will find clothes, a bear spray, and a taser. Then, she opens the trapdoor, and a creature falls out from it.

* Emma uses the bear spray
* Emma uses the taser
 Emma uses the bear spray on the creature and runs out of the treehouse.

Following this, a chase ensues, and Emma must complete the QTE's to keep running from the creature. If she fails the first and the second ones, she will lose her taser, which could be used to defend herself if she fails later on. Should Emma complete all QTE's, she will jump on a zipline, make her way back to the treehouse, and block the door. She will then climb the ladder leading upwards and keep the trapdoor shut.

 Emma uses the taser to stun the creature long enough to get the chance to take a picture of it, and runs out of the treehouse.

## 22:15

*This section only plays out if Emma is alive.*

Emma sees a zipline, but the handle is out on the middle of the rope. She can either reel it in quickly or quietly. If she does it quietly, the creature will creep up on her, but she has enough time to grab the handle and escape. If she reels quickly, the creature will suddenly burst from the trapdoor, and she has the decision to either jump or reel it in more. If she chooses jump and misses, she will fall to her death, and if she reels it in and does not dodge the creatures attack she will get mauled. Either way, if she successfully completes the QTE, she will grab the handle and escape. During the middle of the zipline, she lets go and falls back into the water and find her taser broken.
