"Stanley, what's wrong? You just saved, wha- Did you reload? Can I not remember your reloads? Is that why I've been feeling faint déjà vu when you were fighting that dog?"
* You nodded, confirming the Narrator's words as all being true.
* Crushed by the weight of what you went through, you lean against the wall and slowly slide into a sitting position as you silently cry.
"Stanley I... Why are you glaring at me like that? Did I do something to cause you to reload?"
* You shake your head, the Narrator did nothing wrong the last time. Neither did he the 18 other times before last attempt.
"18 previous attempts... plus one... Stanley I'm so sorry for putting you here... If I'd have known I..."
* You raise your hand in a stop gesture. None of this is the Narrator's fault.
"You've been narrating all of Stanley's actions since the reload. Do you remember what happened?"
* Yes.
"So I'm the only one who doesn't remember..."
* You reach your hand towards the Narrator
"... Stanley? Are you trying to... comfort me...?"
* You nodded
"..."

"Thank you, Stanley..."
' ... '
* Refilled with determination, you stand up and go face the masked threat again!
"Good luck..."

"Stanley!"
* Stanley, can you hear us!?
' ... '
"He's unconscious... Oh no... no no no no no."
* This hasn't happened on any of his previous attempts...
* However he's not taking any damage and she seems to have lost track of us.
"She?"
* The one attacking Stanley.
"Ah. Well I suppose we can only hope Stanley's okay..."

"Hello Stanley, we're glad to see you've woken up"
* You stood up
[★]
* As you venture off the beaten path, you're filled with determination.
"Stanley, there are tall mushrooms around us, how about you take off your soaked clothes and dry them while we rest. Yes I know, you don't have a change of clothes that aren't wet, but we really can't risk you catching a cold down here."
* You agree with the Narrator for once and begin setting up a temporary camp
