Years earlier, Rock remembered being in exactly this circumstance: He was in a van with several of Jenny Devine's school friends from Harrison (Arkansas) High School. Jenny was behind the wheel. As before, the van was careening along a very narrow, winding road like the one that leads to Hindman Park Golf Course, except that it was high in the Ozarks, above a deep river.
Unlike before, Jenny suddenly turned the van directly down a wooded slope into the river. No one, including Rock, seemed at all fearful. This reaction changed for Rock when the van reached the river bottom. It was clear to him that they were pinned in with no hope to escape. Death appeared imminent, and Rock was indeed panicked.
