Cooper and Rainsford, it turned out to be just as similar as the game between Rainsford and Zaroff. Mr. Cooper had made dangerous hidden traps in the muddy ground, from the trees, and under the trees. Rainsford was proud of the work that Mr. Cooper did and rewarded him. From the final trap in the dark, spooky jungle, Rainsford was thinking of a purpose. He is strong, knows how to get around, and is very intelligent. He could become new Ivan, Rainsford was thinking. He decided to purpose the idea to Mr. Cooper, “How would you like to be spared?” Mr. Cooper felt like he was falling into his own muddy trap. Mr. Cooper started questioning Rainsford, “Spare me? How so? If it is by murder, then no! I can find my way around here and I…” Rainsford cut off Mr. Cooper, “That can come in handy. I have something to purpose.” Mr. Cooper was curious, so he asked, “What have you came up with now?” Rainsford was straightforward with the question, “How would you like to help me out?

Whitney ran out of the house, but Rainsford wasn’t far behind. On the way out, Whitney grabbed a knife that was in the belt that Mr. Cooper was wearing. When Whitney stumbled out the front door, Rainsford caught him and tackled him down. When they both went down, Whitney put the knife up towards Rainsford, but Rainsford knocked it out of his hand. Rainsford pointed the pistol at Whitney, but Whitney made Rainsford drop the pistol. Whitney grabbed the pistol and shot towards Rainsford once and missed. He shot another time, but missed again.
