The traditional end of that scene is the release of They Escaped.

And that's Stephen, the early drafts of the script didn't have that scene.
And he said, but this is the most frightening thing that's ever happened to them in their entire lives.
There would be emotional fallout.

Yeah, emotionally violent inside, but there are people working together to try to resolve those feelings.

And at one point, we did a draft solely from the point of view of that character.
I'm not saying we rewrote the entire script so it's only them, but thinking about every scene and every moment only from their point of view.
