Church and Tucker are behind a rock with bullets hitting the canyon wall behind them.

Church: My god, doesn't that thing ever run out of bullets?

Tucker: You know, in hindsight, we should have brought the tank. Or, y'know, paid attention during Daniels "Vehicles and how to Avoid Getting Killed by Them" Classes.

Church: Hey, Tucker, what good is a tank gonna do us if nobody here knows how to drive it? Or those I'm willing to admit can do something I can't. Another thing, we both know those classes would've been stuipid.

Tucker: Yeah, I can see how hiding behind a rock is a much better strategy.

Church: Well, yeah, but... oh man, I guess I gotta give that one to ya. But I'll never admit that Daniel's right! The day I admit that is the day I die!

Cut to Caboose hopping in the tank. As the canopy closes, the tank turns on. Daniel doesn't get there in time.

Daniel: Damnit Caboose, you should've let me drive!

Tank: Hello, and thank you for activating the M808V Main Battle Tank. You may call me Sheila.

Caboose: Sorry Daniel! Hello. Sheila. Big tank lady.

Sheila: Would you like me to run the tutorial program?

Caboose: Oh, that'd be very nice. Thank you.

Sheila: Tutorial program activated. This program is intended to instruct non-certified personnel in the use of this Scorpion class tank. Let's begin with some driving.

Caboose: Okay.

Daniel: Whoa whoa man hold on stop driving into me! Stop driving! Break break! OW!

Caboose: Tucker did it!

Daniel: No he didn't!

Cut to Simmons firing the Warthog's gun with Grif on the ground behind him.

Grif: Simmons. SIMMONS!

Simmons stops firing, and steps down.

Grif: Man, that thing is loud.

Sheila drives by in the background with Daniel resting on top of it.

Simmons: ...WHAT?

Grif: Come on, let's sneak around the back of the rock and get 'em out.

Simmons: OKAY.

Grif: Keep it down! Jesus. Let's go, before they figure out what's going on.

Cut to Caboose having Sheila stranded on a tall rock and turning to try to get off.

Sheila: Now that you've mastered driving the M808V, let's move on to some of the safety features.

Caboose: No, no, wait, go back! Why are there six pedals if there are only four directions?

Daniel: There's only two pedals that matter, Accelerator, and Break, those are in the center of all the pedals.

Caboose: Oh right, thanks Daniel! Glad you're not mad!

Daniel: Yeah, when I can walk again, I'm gonna kick someone's ass.

Caboose: Is it me?

Daniel: ....

Caboose: Is it Church?

Daniel: ..... Maybe.....

Cut to Church peeking out from the side of the rock. Tucker is still standing behind it.

Church: (whispering) Psst, hey, they stopped firing.

Tucker: Why are you whispering?

Church: (whispering) Uhm... I don't know.

Cut to Simmons and Grif standing at the foot of a cliff.

Grif: Aw, crap, I don't think we're gonna be able to get around this way.

Simmons: Tell me again, uh, why did we get out of the jeep?

Sheila rolls up right behind them.

Grif: Well, I guess it was this or sit there and watch you shoot rocks all day long.

Sheila's turret looks at Grif, then at Simmons as they speak.

Simmons: Well, at least that was fun.

Grif and Simmons turn simultaneously to see the tank.

Grif: Holy CRAP. What in God's name is that thing?

Daniel: 'Sup Reds, do you have any medical equipment I can borrow? Broken foot and all.

Cut to Church and Tucker looking at the vacant Warthog.

Church: Tucker, don't be stupid. They're just trying to draw us out.

Tucker: No they're not, look - they left the jeep. They're gone.

Church: Well, I don't know about this. It seems pretty fishy, but... alright screw it, let's go get it.

Cut to Sheila's HUD. Her cross hair slowly homes in on Grif's head.

Grif: Dude, hold still. I don't think it sees us.

A tone goes off indicating target lock.

Daniel: This isn't a dinosaur, and you better start running!
