Suddenly the group's attention turns to a new hole, complete with a giant sign with an arrow pointing to it that says "NEW HOLE." One person points to the new hole and says "hey look!

One person, now situated in the new hole says "this feels like how the old hole used to feel." Another person nods in agreement.
