On a remote mountain trail, Mr. Coffey invites a lone woman to join his hiking group. Some members protest, calling her an amateur and citing a recent scary incident on the news. Teasing remarks accuse her of chasing men; others warn the isolated slope could leave her unheard if something happens. Faced with pressure, the woman reveals her period came early and says the others must be near the summit, so she needs to pick up the pace. She insists on moving ahead despite the group's warnings, leaving her safety and the group's split unresolved.
