[WIDE SHOT OF BEKZ DASH WITH A VOICE OVER THE WALKIES, THE SUN CRESTING DAWN IN THE DISTANCE] Diggy to Bekz, over.
[BEKZ] Go for, Bekz.
[ACTION SHOT OF DANIEL WITH HELMET ON] Remind me again when we turn off, over.
[BEKZ GLANCES AT THE MAP ON HER WRIST] Keep S. Take left on I-10 E. Then we'll take exit 352 to Safford and stay on I-191 N. NM-78 will take us to the state line, over.
[DANIEL] Roger that. Frogman you got that written for Machine, over?
[BRANT SITING SHOTGUN WHILE MACHINE DRIVES THE HUMVEE] Affirmative. After we pass Mule Creek we'll take a left onto I-180 and follow it all the way N, over.
[BEKZ AVOIDS A BURNED CAR ON THE ROAD] Until we reach NM-12 which leads to I-60 and our destination is on the right, over.
[DANIEL] 10-4. Gonna be a peachy 6 hours.
[LOBLEY RIDING TURRET] Hey, why doesn't this crazy loca in a street legal road warrior truck not have a handle? Over.
[BEKZ] Good question. Diggy?
[DANIEL DRIVING]
[LOBLEY] Diggy?
[DANIEL] Cuss! I'm thinking.
[THE CONVOY HEADS ONTO I-10]
[DANIEL] Wardog.
[BEKZ LOOKS AT DANIEL FOR A PANEL AND IN THE NEXT ONE SHE SMIRKS] I like it.
[DANIEL] She likes it!

[DANIEL] Diggy, here. Heads up there's some sort of checkpoint near the stateline. Wardog, any ideas? Over.
[BEKZ] Possibly a quarantine checkpoint to prevent people from jumping statelines through the main roads. FEMA and the CDC were setting them up nearing the end of 2032. Over.
[DANIEL] We were still over seas which is why we didn't hear about them.
[THE CONVOY ENTERS A LARGE CHECKPOINT WITH WHITE TENTS AND A FENCE BLOCKING THE ROAD. EMPTY VEHICLES SCATTER THE AREA]
[DANIEL] What do you want to do, Wardog? Over.
What do you do?...
[DECISION 9] Keep going.
[DECISION 10] Stop for food, fuel, and medical supplies.
