When the college students begin to venture closer to the temple in the clearing, many of the Mayans begin to back away. In their minds this place was cursed by the Mayan gods centuries ago. Unknown to the students when they decide to leave, the Mayans prevent them from leaving. One girl in the group begins to get very angry and throws a flowering plant in the Mayans' direction.
