** Sally joins him for the first attempt, but chickens out due to how steep the hill looks and climbs out of the box. This motion causes the box to flip forward and Linus to fall out a few feet down the hill. Sally comments that she would've stayed home if she'd known they'd only be going that far.
** Linus proclaims that he's putting the box in "fast-forward" for the second attempt, only for it to slide backwards and land on top of him at the bottom of the hill.
** The third attempt has Linus actually travel a sizable distance in the direction he wants to go, only for the way down to be so bumpy that he eventually bounces out of the box. Said box lands on top of a tree Sally and Lucy are admiring.
