I was with a friend in this huge warehouse or store of some sort with all these strange, slightly scary characters, kind of like the characters from Nightmare Before Christmas except actually scary instead of endearing, who would perform these actions on a loop, conversing with each other, going about their business in the store, over and over, in the exact same way. Their actions either gave hints about how to get through the obstacles in the building, as it was clearly some kind of game, or obstruct your path, and woe to you if you attempted to stop or delay their repeating behaviors. Like I said, scary.

I remember that the task I was currently trying to complete involved jumping down a long pit with water at the bottom in a precise way, in unison with my friend, who was able to do it, but I was terrible at it and had to keep trying over and over. Eventually we got tired and gave up, and I left the building, and was promptly greeted by a clown, and I remembered at the last second one of the things that the people in the building said was "defeat the clown by spinning" but it was too late, and the clown killed me.

Then I woke up in the parking lot of the place and I said I quit and a women in a convertible came up and we drove off.
