Bruce goes to the opening of the Windom Peak ski resort dinner where he dances with Annette, which makes Tina jealous.

When the avalanche occurs, Bruce is once again skiing on the slopes. He tries to outrun the avalanche, however this time he is caught in it and buried. A search time eventually finds Bruce, however he dies before they can pull him out.
