I lost them when we fell.
They counter the distortion effect.

Without them,
I'm as helpless as you.

00:17:12,156 --> 00:17:14,742
Simple.
I just kept my eyes closed.

You what?

173
00:17:17,495 --> 00:17:19,705
The only way to neutralize
the vertigo effect

174
00:17:19,789 --> 00:17:22,542
was to rely on my other
senses to see us through.

I should have known better,
