Wendy:
Hey? Wasn't it around here that the Donner Party got snowbound?

Jack:
I think that was farther west in the Sierras.

Wendy:
Oh …

Danny:
What was the Donner Party?

Jack:
They were a party of settlers in covered-wagon times. They got snowbound one winter in the mountains. They had to resort to cannibalism in order to stay alive.

Jack:
You see? It's okay. He saw it on the television.
