(With Ashton and Calum)

(They're in the car)

Ashton- Luke said something about toilet tissue.

Calum- Yeah, there wasn't any at the market we went to.

Ashton- And feminine products for the ladies. Kam demands it.

Calum- I'll let you get those.

Ashton- Sure.

(Calum looks out the window)

Calum- Everything's so calm now.

Ashton- I know, it use to be, everyone and everything was so "go go go" and now, it's like the world's stopped.

Calum- Yeah. It's peaceful but still scary in a way. Ya know?

Ashton- Yeah. The only time it bothers me, is when we're in public places and there's absolutely no one and nothing happening anymore. It's unreal.

Calum- Yeah, Luke and I were talking about how crazy shit's gotten, since this virus went down. So many things we'll never get back and how things that use to be normal or taken for granted aren't so easy or normal anymore. Like looking both ways before crossing a street. The only real reason people do it anymore's to make sure a walker's not coming at'em.

Ashton- Or, like you said, the things most people took for granted before, like toiletries and water. Not so simple anymore.

Calum- Guess it's good, we have a badass group of people to help each other out all the time.

(Ashton nods)

Ashton- For sure, mate.

(They drives passed a small barn, walkers are invading it)

Calum- Hope nobody was staying there.

(They pull up beside another market, minutes later)

(They get out and get their weapons ready) (Calum wipes his forehead)

Calum- Wonder if there's a place with a working shower.

Ashton- Probably at a prison or fire service station. They usually have backup generators or something, like when the power's out. 'course I'm not sure how long they last for.

Calum- I might look into seeing if there's anything like that around here, before we head out for Utah, tomorrow. Maybe when Em's looting her old place.

(Ashton stops walking and listens)

(Calum looks at him, then listens too)

Ashton- I thought I heard something.

Calum- I didn't hear anything, dude.

(Ashton stays quiet a second, then nods)

Ashton- Maybe I'm just hearing things. Wouldn't surprise me, in all honesty.

Calum- It might've been something. Can't really tell anymore.

(They walk close to the store)

(Calum and Ashton slide the automatic doors to the side)

Ashton- Let's get the ladies stuff first.

(Cal nods and they both go to look)

(Shows the store, it's dark and quiet) (Ashton turns on his flashlight) (Calum walks behind him, looking around carefully)

(Ashton browses and picks up a couple boxes of ladies products)

Calum- It's times like these, where I'm glad I'm a guy.
