Since it looks like she brought some really useless things with her, the group repacks her bag. Once they have their packs, Ellie notices that Fi's is too big.As others are doubtful about making into Hell, Ellie gives them a pep talk about how if a murderer can do it, surely they can, too.The plan is to take Satan's Steps-a series of bare granite blocks-into Hell.Kevin wonders both how they will get into Hell and why they are trying to get there then he gets into a spat with Homer over a tease.The view is beautiful-and then they see Hell, which looks impossible to get into.Martin where the road runs out, the gang stretches and looks around.
