Into the Woods
Chapter 2

The camera shows views of the forest followed by the bus leaving the camp. Camp counselors Emma, Nick, Dylan, Kaitlyn and Jacob are shown saying goodbye to the campers. As the bus leaves, Kaitlyn and Jacob discuss how many hearts were broken on the last day of the camp, where the former teases Jacob about his relationship with Emma, who already dumped him. Walking up to the van, Kaitlyn loads the bags and asks Jacob to bring the rest from the lodge. Being outside, Jacob can:

* Pick up Emma's bracelet, which Jacob takes with him.
* Discover a spider under a chip packet, which he can either squish or let go.
* Try to talk to Kaitlyn, but she sends him to get the bags.
* Go to the entrance to the bunker and try to talk to Ryan, but he'll be sitting with his headphones on and ignoring Jacob.

Jacob goes up to the lodge and meets Nick and Dylan at the door. He asks the boys for help with the bags, but Dylan says he's busy fixing the door right now and slowly closes it, complaining that it's closing itself. Moreover, when Jacob tries to open the door again, it turns out to be closed, causing him to get into the lodge another way. After entering the lodge through a window, Jacob goes to the main hall, where he can briefly talk to Nick and Dylan about their prank on him.

   Finding the bags, Jacob brings them to Kaitlyn, who teases him to get used to it. Jacob calls Kaitlyn mean, but she replies that at least she's honest, to which Jacob can say that she stay out of his business or that she doesn't talk about her crush on Ryan either. Either way, the dialogue comes down to the fact that Emma refuses to have a relationship with Jacob even at a distance and that it was just a summer fling.

After loading all their bags, the duo decides to check the engine so the van doesn't stall. As Jacob inspects the engine, he asks Kaitlyn what he needs to do to break it. Kaitlyn answers to either damage the fuel line or pull out the rotor arm, but immediately tells Jacob that he can't fix his relationship with Emma in one night. Jacob agrees, but still takes out the engine either by breaking the fuel line or stealing the rotor arm.

Nick and Dylan come out on the balcony and get the duo's attention, after which the former throws Jacob his phone. Jacob will have to perform a QTE to catch it:

* Jacob caught the phone
* Jacob didn't catch the phone

If Jacob catches the phone, he will do a victory dance. As he checks his phone, Dylan tells him to leave it for emergencies and jokes if being dumped counts as such. To that, Jacob can say that at least he was in a relationship or tell Dylan to fuck off.

If Jacob doesn't catch the phone, the phone will break and Jacob will get mad at the boys while Nick apologizes and Dylan jokingly tells Jacob he should've put his phone on "airplane mode".

Either way, Nick wonders where the others are and teases Jacob that he sometimes knows things Nick doesn't.

Into the Woods
Chapter 2

Abigail is sitting on the stairs of Cabin 10 and drawing when Emma approaches her. She reports that there are only camp counselors left and high-fives Abigail. Emma goes up to the cabin to get the bags, but Abigail says the door is locked while their bags are inside. Emma gets upset at first, but then offers to shape their destiny meaning to break into the cabin, to which Abigail can either refuse or agree:

* Leave the bags
* Break In

If Abigail refuses, she will convince Emma that they will find Mr. Hackett and he will open the door for them.

If Abigail agrees, the girls will break into the cabin. While Emma takes their bags, Abigail will get a chance to explore the cabin where she can find a collectible and a toy she can take or leave.

Abigail is able to explore the entire yard and can find various collectibles. By approaching Emma, who will be waiting by the cart, Abigail can tell her to wait or that she is ready. The second option advances the plot and the girls drive to the lodge.

   On the way, Abigail wonders how Emma is so confident, to which she replies that she is just "faking", saying that she is just being herself but louder, and advises Abi to do the same. Abigail says it's too late and Emma clarifies if she means her and Nick's relationship. Speaking of boys, Abigail suggests that their relationship may turn out to be the same as Emma and Jacob's. Emma admits that although she finds Jacob sweet, there was only a summer fling between them and says that there might be something else between Nick and Abi. Emma encourages her to make the first move, but Abigail says that for now she's satisfied with having Nick's email. After reaching the fork, Abigail is about to go left to the lodge, but Emma suggests them take the scenic route to the right for one last drive through the camp.

* Lodge
* Scenic Route

If Abigail goes to the lodge, she will say that everyone is already waiting for them, to which Emma will joke that Nick won't leave without saying goodbye. Suddenly Emma asks Abigail to stop as a squirrel runs out into the road.

* If Abigail performs the QTE, she will manage to stop the cart. As the squirrel runs away, Emma apologizes to her for Abigail, saying that she is on her way to confess her crush.
* If Abigail fails the QTE, she will run over the squirrel. As the girls go out to look, they find the run down squirrel and Emma gives Abigail a rock, telling her to kill the squirrel out of misery. Either Abigail or Emma drops a rock on the squirrel, killing it, before returning to the cart and driving to the lodge.

If Abigail takes the scenic route, the girls will discuss Emma's channel and her subscribers along the way. Upon reaching the Firepit, Emma comments that the Island is her favorite spot and notices smoke from there. The girls assume that Mr. Hackett was burning something, after which they return to the others. As they leave, someone watches them from the window of the Treehouse.

Into the Woods
Chapter 2

As the group checks their phones, Kaitlyn asks if anyone has a charger, but Jacob says there is no signal anyway. Dylan promises he'll recharge his phone from Mr. Hackett's Office before they leave when Emma and Abigail join them:

* Left the bags
* Took the bags

If the girls left their bags behind, Nick will ask where they are. Emma replies that they were left in a locked cabin, to which Jacob jokingly asks if it's to keep out bears. Dylan can ask why they didn't break in or also make a joke about bears.

If the girls picked up the bags, Jacob will offer to help Emma with the bag, but she will refuse and load it herself. Meanwhile, Dylan can push Nick to help Abigail.

* If Dylan activates the interrupt, he will slightly push Nick. Nick offers to help Abigail with her bag, to which she happily agrees.
* If Dylan ignores the interrupt, Abigail will stand for a few seconds before loading the bag in the van herself.

Either way, Kaitlyn asks where Ryan is when he joins the group. She asks if he has been hanging out with himself, to which Ryan replies that he's been listening to a podcast about the paranormal and more specifically, an episode about their camp called "The Hag of Hackett's Quarry". When Kaitlyn asks what it is, Ryan replies that it's a story about a ghost of an old woman who died in a fire years ago and now haunts the woods looking for her son. Kaitlyn says Ryan made it up, but even though he proves it was in the podcast, the group admits the story is cool.

At this point Chris comes out of the lodge and asks if the counselors are ready to leave. Kaitlyn asks if he has the van keys, but Chris says that forgot them in his office and asks Ryan for help. As the duo leaves, Dylan asks Chris to charge his phone for some music for the road, but he refuses.

Into the Woods
Chapter 2

Once in Chris's office, Ryan is about to talk to him about something, but they are interrupted by a phone call. Chris picks up the phone and asks Ryan to leave the office. As Ryan waits, he can listen to the podcast or overhear Chris talking. Either way, Chris invites Ryan back into the office and starts looking around his desk for his keys.

As Chris looks for them, the guys discuss Ryan's dealings with the university and family, the reason why Chris called Ryan in, and why Chris wants to get the counselors out of camp so badly. Chris claims that Ryan's ghost stories scare the kids away and ruins the camp's reputation (in reality, Chris doesn't want the public to know about the Hag of Hackett's Quarry, who is actually real). Ryan sits down in a chair, noticing a picture of Chris with his children, Caleb and Kaylee, and asks Chris to tell them goodbye from him, as they are leaving early.

Finally finding the keys, the boys return to the others. Chris hands the keys to Jacob and asks him to start the van. However, he doesn't succeed, causing Chris to try to start the car himself.

* Broken fuel tube
* Stolen rotor arm

If Jacob broke the fuel tube, the engine will catch fire and Chris will run for a bucket of water to put it out. Jacob will also try to put out the fire with a bottle of water, but he will either be stopped by Ryan or just fail to put it out.

If Jacob stole the rotor arm, Chris will scold the group for not checking the engine and Kaitlyn will say that they did check it.

    Either way, Chris starts to panic while Jacob tells him not to worry as they can just spend one more night at camp. Chris aggressively disagrees with him, but after a brief tantrum, drives away in his car, promising the group to come back for them the next morning. Before leaving, he also tells Ryan to make sure they lock themselves in the lodge and don't go out at night.

After Chris leaves, Ryan relays his plan to the group. However, Dylan suggests that they have a big campfire party since they are completely alone at the camp. The group agrees to the idea (though Ryan might argue with it) and assigns duties: Nick and Abigail are going for firewood, Jacob and Emma are going for the party supplies, and Dylan is charging their phones.

The camera shows someone watching the counselors through a sniper rifle. It turns out to be Jedediah, who covers his face in blood, while Bobby sticks a sign in the ground. As the duo walks off into the woods, the camera focuses on the sign they set up, notifying the start of hunting season.
