Spoiler
You wake up some time later. You are lying in a pit, badly burned. The charred remains of a GREEN-EYED MONSTER surround you. Your trusty ZAP GUN is on the ground nearby. A PRIMITIVE VILLAGE is visible in the distance.

It is possible that the GREEN-EYED MONSTER burned to death after you shot it with your ZAP GUN. You suppose it is also possible that it lost the will to live after eating its only friend, and accordingly spontaneously combusted. Either way, your love was never meant to be.
