Before he does he shoots both McCallister and Mitch for screwing up the operation, they fall down apparently dead. Inside the well, Chris manages to boost up Ramona high enough to grab some vines which allow her to climb out, she disarms the bomb, and lowers the bucket so Chris can climb out. But Mitch is wounded not dead, and he prepares to kill them but, but Mitch who is barely alive, shoots McCallister and says he always hated him anyway. Both men die.
