Quincy was startled by Evelyn Ford's maneuver. Moreover, he felt a strange sense of déjà vu. Back when they were traveling through the extreme cold, he and Miles Vaughn had fallen into a pit and frozen unconscious. It seemed Evelyn had used this very same method to slap them awake.
After two slaps, Ethan Dawson's brow twitched. Evelyn then took a bottle from her bag containing a specialty drug she had developed. She took out a pill and stuffed it into Ethan Dawson's mouth. 'Time to test it on him.' Although she had tested it on rabbits several times with great results, this was the first time Evelyn had tried it on a human.
When he still showed no signs of movement, Evelyn began to worry that her specialty drug wasn't effective on humans. Just as she was preparing to give Ethan Dawson another two slaps, he finally opened his eyes.
"Please, stop hitting me. My face hurts." After saying this, he clutched his chest and began to cough.
