Amanda climbs up the wall behind the bar and finds a safe with a four-digit code. Each time the sequence is repeated, a portion of the floor falls away. Music begins to play followed by an ear-piercing dial-up sound. A telephone cord drops from the ceiling and the call warns the group to watch their steps. They notice a door without a doorknob Mike thinks the eight-ball missing from the pool table must be the doorknob hidden somewhere in the bar. As the group enter, they feel the entire room elevate to a new altitude. The third room is an inverted bar with pool tables. The group escape across the stream into a new door that opens just as all the remaining ice collapses beneath them. Once they retrieve the key Jason manages to turn the lock, but the door does not open. Fearing hypothermia, Jason convinces the group to huddle and use their collective body heat to melt the ice. The group are distraught at the loss of Danny and alarmed at how calculated his death was, noting he fell into the ice when he grabbed the lighter. Danny attempts to retrieve Ben's lighter to melt the cube but falls into the ice with the lighter and drowns. The group fish out a key encased in a cube of ice. Jason grows concerned when he recognizes a red parka the group find and take turns wearing to stay warm. Searching their surroundings, Jason locates a door needing a key and the others find a compass, fishing rod, magnet, and ice fishing hole. Ben gives RUDOLPH as the code and the group exit and enter frigid temperatures on a frozen stream just as the cabin doors and windows lock shut. Ben has a flashback where he was driving with friends singing "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" just before a head-on collision. Jason seeks a seven-lettered name connected to "You'll Go Down in History" to unlock the cabin door. The cameras in each room do nothing when the group needs help. In a mountain cabin, the group, barring Danny, grow concerned at how real the game is becoming. Ben empties his flask into the final glass and the two escape just in time as the room engulfs in flames. Ben and Danny rush to cover all coasters with glasses until not enough water remains since Amanda drank a glass earlier. Jason escapes first, followed by Mike and Amanda while Zoey realizes filling a glass with water will hold down a coaster long enough for her to escape the room. Zoey sees a sign asking for coasters to be used for drinks and the group notice an escape vent to the next room opens when they simultaneously push down on six coasters. The group receive a phone-call advising them to follow posted rules. Zoey notices Amanda's uneasiness and tries to calm her with water from the water cooler. Embedded heat panels progressively turn on bringing the room to increasingly hot temperatures, causing panic among all except Danny who refuses to believe the heat is authentic. After Mike finds a copy of Fahrenheit 451, Zoey sets the temperature to 451☏. When Ben tries leaving the room to smoke, the door handle breaks off, locking the inside and revealing an oven temperature gauge. War veteran Amanda (Deborah Ann Woll), former miner Mike (Tyler Labine), and escape-room enthusiast Danny (Nik Dodani) arrive and join Zoey, Ben, and Jason in what appears to be a waiting area. After solving the puzzle, a clue invites them to the Minos Escape Room for a chance at $10,000 should they successfully escape. Zoey, Ben, and Jason are all gifted a puzzle box addressed from a trusted acquaintance: Zoey's professor, Ben's boss, and Jason's client. Jason (Jay Ellis) is a young stockbroker respected among his co-workers for his fast-paced and go-getter lifestyle. Ben (Logan Miller), seen earlier in the collapsing room, is a stock boy at a grocery store with a smoking habit frustrated at his boss' refusal to promote him to a better role and higher salary. Three days prior, shy physics student Zoey (Taylor Russell) attends a lecture on the Quantum Zeno Effect theory, which states "a system cannot change while you are watching it." Her professor challenges her to take a risk over the Thanksgiving break. A man (Logan Miller) is seen trying to escape a collapsing room by solving a puzzle.
