(05/23 00:33:17) Michael Engberg: Look at us.
(05/23 00:33:17) Wheely: It's moving more now... I really think it's getting angrier or something!
(05/23 00:33:3 Wheely: And it's making more of those noises all the time!
(05/23 00:33:42) Michael Engberg: Just stay there. Where we can see you.
(05/23 00:34:46) Wheely: What if it comes toward me?
(05/23 00:35:02) Michael Engberg: Just stay there. We'll be there in minutes.
(05/23 00:37:15) Wheely: Dad? I know I'm sounding scared, but it's getting louder...
(05/23 00:37:53) Michael Engberg: It's okay to be scared. But you're strong babe.

(05/23 00:40:53) Wheely: It's moving a lot! All over!
(05/23 00:40:54) Michael Engberg: We're getting there.
(05/23 00:41:35) Michael Engberg: Marie, how much longer?
(05/23 00:42:43) Wheely: That sound! Over and over! What is it? Dad, can you hear that?
(05/23 00:42:55) Marie Sutherland: Michael, we're moving as fast as we can. Maybe ten to fifteen minutes

(05/23 00:43:35) Michael Engberg: Okay, that's all. Ten minutes. We're right there.
(05/23 00:44:07) Michael Engberg: I don't think it's saying anything.
(05/23 00:44:35) Michael Engberg: Just look at me.
(05/23 00:44:51) Wheely: It sounds like "No" something?
(05/23 00:44:5 Wheely: Do you hear that?
(05/23 00:45:16) Michael Engberg: It's not saying anything real. It's just a sound.
(05/23 00:45:25) Michael Engberg: Just look at us.
(05/23 00:46:34) Michael Engberg: Wheely we're going to lower down and get you.
(05/23 00:46:47) Michael Engberg: I'm going to come down and get you. We have a rope here. The hole is almost big enough.
(05/23 00:46:57) Wheely: It keeps jumping around the room.
(05/23 00:46:59) Michael Engberg: Okay, babe? You hear me?
(05/23 00:47:02) Michael Engberg: Look at me.
(05/23 00:47:09) Michael Engberg: We're coming. I'm coming.
(05/23 00:47:22) Wheely: I don't like this. This isn't right. Dad?
(05/23 00:47:34) Michael Engberg: I can hear it.
(05/23 00:47:39) Michael Engberg: Honey look at me.

(05/23 00:49:59) Michael Engberg: Wheely, look at me.
(05/23 00:49:59) Wheely: "No....." something?
(05/23 00:50:10) Michael Engberg: Is that hole big enough now?
(05/23 00:50:22) Michael Engberg: C'mon I can make it down.
(05/23 00:50:27) Michael Engberg: Let me through.
(05/23 00:50:44) Marie Sutherland: we just need to get more of the rubble out of the way, or you're going to knock them down on her.

(05/23 00:54:01) Wheely: Is it threatening me?
(05/23 00:54:11) Michael Engberg: It helped you last night.
(05/23 00:54:39) Wheely: Noloben! That's it!
