[after finding a newspaper article about how Sater's negligence caused the deaths of 8 children, Murphy finds him on the edge of an observation platform, about to jump]

Murphy:
What are you doing, JP?

Sater:
Aw, you know. Enjoying the view. You know, they say if you were to put the Empire State Building in here, it wouldn't even reach halfway to the top of this place.

Murphy:
Seems like a dangerous place to be sightseeing.

Sater:
You know, none of those things they said about me are true. The papers and stuff... people 'round town? My lawyers, they said it was just circumstantial evidence and whatnot. That's what I kept telling them.

Murphy:
Yeah, I read all about it.

Sater:
Those newspapermen are goddamn f***ing liars!

Murphy:
Relax, man. We're just talking here.

Sater:
What happened; that was an accident. I didn't mean to hurt nobody. I didn't murder nobody. Murder's a mortal sin. You go to hell for murder, ain't that right, Murphy? Surely your mama taught you 'bout what's right and what's wrong.

Murphy:
Those kids had parents that might disagree with you. The paper mentioned negligence...

Sater:
It was an accident!

Murphy:
You were completely hammered! There were witnesses!

Sater:
And how 'bout you, Murphy? Someone know all your dirty little secrets?

Murphy:
I never hurt anybody who didn't deserve it. And I sure as hell never hurt any kids. I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

Sater:
You call this living? Can you imagine what that's like, Murphy? Livin' all your life inside someone else's lie? Can you? Listen to us talk, as if anybody out there gives a damn when we're the ones who decide if we can live with what we've done.

Murphy:
Wait, what do you mean? Just wait a second!

Sater:
Be seeing you around, Murphy. [lets go of the railing and plunges to his death]

[Murphy is riding the mine train through the cave]

Devil's Pit Announcer:
Welcome aboard the Devil's Pit historic mine train with stops and Hillside Station and the Superstition Caverns. Please keep your hands and arms inside the train at all times and remain seated until the train comes to a full and complete stop. Failing to comply with safety regulations can result in severe injury or death. Enjoy your ride and please, no flash photography. Before it became the charming resort town we know and love today, Silent Hill was once a center of trade and commerce thanks to its rich seams of coal and iron ore. You are riding aboard a fully-restored mine train originally owned and operated by the Gillespie Coal and Iron Company, which first began extract ore from the Devil's Pit in 1860. This subterranean railroad was built to in order to haul men and equipment as far and 1200 meter below the surface, making it the deepest coal mine of its day. [as the lights flicker, Murphy sees horrifying images of miners coming for him in the dark] Long before the discovery of its rich coal seams, this labyrinth of limestone caves and grottos were used by the local indigenous tribes for religious ceremonies, particularly as a gateway to the spirit realm and for communicating with the dead. [as the ride continues, the cave degenerates it a nightmarish hellscape] We are now descending into the Superstition Caverns, an area of the cave steeped in mystery and folklore. According to local legend, in 1911, miners discovered mysterious symbols carved into the walls of a limestone grotto, leading to wild speculations about witchcraft and the occult. Soon after, a series of unfortunate accidents and reports of mysterious creatures forced the company to suspend mining operations along this seam. [a hideous monster jumps onto the train and attacks Murphy] Today, visitors to the Superstition Caverns occasionally reports seeing ghosts and other strange phenomenon... [the guide voice begins to break up as the train speeds through a monster infested nightmare until leading to a hideous, monstrous face stretched across the tracks]

Evil Face:
Did you enjoy the ride, Murphy? [the train suddenly shoots backward along the track]

DJ Bobby Ricks:
That, my brothers and sisters, was another rock and roll classic coming to you courtesy of DJ Ricks on this fine afternoon. Weatherman says there's a storm coming our way to spoil the fun, so batten down the hatches and snuggle up under the blanket with the one you love, 'cause it's gonna be a rough ride. And speaking of rough rides, we got another dedication going out to my man with the plan, Murphy Pendleton. Somebody out there's got and eye on you, M.P., so watch your back and keep it on track! [puts on a record, then Murphy comes into the broadcasting booth] Hey man, come on in. Got a disc spinning right now, so you ain't interrupting nothing. Man, you look like you just say a ghost or something. You all right?

Murphy:
Not really, no.

DJ Bobby Ricks:
Good to hear. So, what can DJ Bobby Ricks do for you, uh - ?

Murphy:
Murphy Pendleton.

DJ Bobby Ricks:
Like I was saying. What can DJ Bobby Ricks do for you, Murphy? Got a track you want to play or - ?

Murphy:
I'm the guy you've been putting out the dedications for. I got the message; I came to find you.

DJ Bobby Ricks:
'Fraid you got the wrong man, Murphy, I don't know what you're talking about. But if there's a song you want to hear or a dedication you want to make, I could... [the song ends and Ricks turns to the mic] You're listening to the DJ Ricks show on WLMN-FM, where the tracks are tight and the sweet melodies flow on and on. It's always a perfect day with DJ Ricks, your on-air friend to the end. [puts on another song]

Murphy:
Look, man, I came here through hell and high water because you called me? Now cut the bullshit, 'cause I don't have time for this.

DJ Bobby Ricks:
Chill out, man. You don't keep your voice down you're gonna get us both in trouble and you do not want that. [whispers] You don't know who might be listening, understand? Thank god someone finally heard me. I can't even tell you how long its been just spinning record after record after record hoping someone...

Murphy:
What the hell's going on here, Ricks? What is this place?

DJ Bobby Ricks:
No time to explain. If we're gonna get out of here, we gotta move fast! You getting this far tells me we just might have a chance of getting out alive.

Murphy:
What the plan?

DJ Bobby Ricks:
Right, listen... I've got this boat, she's moored down at the marina. She's fast, real fast. Problem is some motherf***er ransacked the studio and jacked the keys.

Murphy:
I'll hotwire it, no problem.

DJ Bobby Ricks:
That's not gonna work. This place, it does strange sh*t to reality, man. It's like there's rules you gotta follow, you know what I mean? [the booth phone rings and Ricks answers it] Bobby Ricks... uh-huh... yeah, sure. Who's it going out to? [pause] Uh, that's nice of you to think of me. Yeah, real nice. Thank you. [hangs up and turns to Murphy] They're coming.

Murphy:
Who?

DJ Bobby Ricks:
Doesn't matter. We gotta find those keys. They're on a silver chain that says "Freedom". You can't miss 'em.

[Suddenly, Anne bursts into the room with her gun drawn on Murphy]

Anne:
Pendleton!

Murphy:
Put the gun down, damn it. We might have a way out of here.

Anne:
[to Ricks] You, I need to use your phone.

DJ Bobby Ricks:
Sorry, lady. Calls come in, but don't go out. Just 'cause folks wanna be heard, it don't mean they're willing to listen. See for yourself.

[Anne picks up the receiver, but does not get a dialtone]

Anne:
What the hell's going on around here?

[Just then, several Screamer monsters smash through the booth's glass]
