OTR Dramas - Escape!

Escape! -   A Good Thing

Two brothers travel into the Philippine jungle for the purpose of studying an ancient native tribe. Only one returns.

Dan lives in a run down hotel in Manila where he spends all of his time drinking. When Matthew, his brother, arrives he tries to get Dan to stop drinking.

He tells Dan of his plan to go into the jungle so he can do research for a book he is writing about a native tribe of headhunters. He thinks it will help Dan to go with him.

Dan reluctantly agrees to go with his brother -- but for reasons of his own that have nothing to do with Matthew's book.
