In this short scene, the young lovers discuss the death roulette, a game in which the player wins if the ball lands on a grid, but loses if it lands on an unlucky piece of ground. The game is described as follows: "When the bead on this roulette falls into the grid, the corresponding disaster mode is activated" . In other words, if you lose the game, you're going to lose the chance to win the game. The young lovers wonder if they'll be able to survive this round, but the narrator assures them that their greatest threat isn't necessarily from the compass.
