(Faith ran to wake jeb up)

[Jeb sighs]

Faith: Got to get up.

Jeb: I'm working on it.

Faith: Seriously, Jeb, it's time to go.

Jeb: You found one for us?

(Leans in to kiss Jeb)

(Faith ran to wake the others up)

[horn honking]

[grunts]

[groans]

Javi: What the hell?

Faith: Storm's here, guys! Let's go!

Javi: Nah. Nah, it can't be.
[groaning] God, I went way too hard last night.

Faith: Javi, get up. Come on.

(Faith Pulls his blankets off)

Javi: Oh! Come on!

(Little time skip)

Addy: Where are the trash bags?
Oh. Found 'em.

Faith: Jeb, are you sure you're recording?
I don't see a red light.

Jeb: Oh. Yeah. Recording.

Faith: Okay. Blah.

[Jeb laughing]

Faith: Don't make me laugh. Stop it. Okay. [clears throat] Today, our science team from the Tornado Tamer project is out in the field, about to chase a storm southwest of us. Our experiment is designed to decrease the moisture inside of a tornado to see if we can make it collapse.

Jeb: Tell the folks how you do that, Faith.

Faith: Well, first, we got to find a tornado to suck up our superabsorbent polymers in these barrels...

[Addy whispers] Diapers. Tell them it's the same stuff they use in diapers. Hmm.

Faith: Oh, yeah.

Addy: It's nontoxic.

[both laugh]

Parvenu: Uh, the Doppler doesn't show a storm until the afternoon.

Addy: The data doesn't see what Faith sees, remember?

Javi: How about Faith sees a few more hours of sleep? That might work.Praveen, what are you doing? Dorothy's not a desk.

Faith: Come on. Get in, get in, get in! Ready? You know what today is?

[all] The day we tame a tornado!

[all whooping]

Jeb: Yeah!

Javi: All right. I'm gonna yak first.

Addy: [laughs] Ow.

Addy:Yeah!

Praveen: Yeah!

[excited chatter]

[laughing]
