Object
Willie Scott's Clothes-Draped Tree Branch
A sturdy tree branch hangs low over the river water at sunset, its length draped with Willie Scott's clothes spread out to dry. The branch serves as a drying rack for Willie's garments after her immersion in the river. A boa constrictor coils atop the branch, blending into the fabric folds. From the water below, Willie reaches up to retrieve her clothes, her fingers brushing the snake instead. The reptile drops onto her, sparking terror and struggle. Indiana Jones watches from the bank, frozen by his phobia of snakes.
