DescriptionTranslation:[Upper right]
Narrator: You can't see them because of the grass, but there are big holes everywhere. People here know where they are, even with their eyes closed...
[Upper left]
Brother, they can scamper through like the wind...
[Lower right]
Don't waste your breath asking me who the hell would put a road through this god-forsaken place, or went around digging holes... What's there is there...
