Javi: All right, let's get ahead of this bunch. Yeah, let me see this. All right, Faith.
(Javier grabs the tablet giving it to faith)
Javi: Which storm should we chase?
Scott:There's a nice-looking cell over to the east.
[ Faith clears throat]
(Faith walks away and Javi follows)
Faith: It's, uh, it's been a while. I... I'll just watch on this first one.
Javi: No, no. Faith, Faith, it's all right. You got this. It's why you're here.
All right, all right, guys, let's go. Everybody get their last bathroom break in.
Scott: All right, be quick, fellas. We're on the clock. Five minutes, then we're loading up.
Somebody: Here we go.
(Going into the gas station)
Lily: Okay, uniforms. Wrinkle-free shirts. Crisp hats. Good.
Boone: Ah, looks like they're going to church, man.
Lily (I think): I like it. Right? Looking good, looking good.
Dani:Hey, man, you're not gonna hold the door? Come on, man. Too heavy?
Dexter: [mockingly] StormPAR. StormPAR.
Tyler: All right, see you out there.
Women: Thanks so much.
Faith: Come on, Faith. You got this.
(Faith is in a small area with grass away from everything looking at the sky)
Scott: What is she doing?
Javi: She's doing her thing, man.
(Both are watching her)
[wind whistling softly]
( Faith picks up a dandelion and crumbles it up and watch it blow away)
Tyler: You know, I used to do that, too. Compare the wind direction to cloud movement.
Get you a feel for the shear.Yep. Sometimes the old ways are better than the new.
(Tyler surprised Faith)
Javi: What is Owens up to?
Scott: You tell me.
(Watching from a distance)
Tyler: So, where you coming in from?
Faith:New York.
Tyler:Well, you're a long way from home, city girl. So you like working for StormPAR?
Ben: Tyler, do we know which storm we're going after yet?
Tyler: Well, why don't we ask...
Faith: Faith.
Tyler: Hi, Faith. I'm Tyler.
Ben: And I'm Ben. I'm a reporter, doing a piece on American storm chasing.
Tyler: Yeah.
Ben: Tyler's letting me ride along.
Tyler: Yeah, Ben just had to promise to write nothing but good stuff about me.
[chuckles]
Faith: Good luck with that.
Tyler: Hang on. You didn't say which way we were going yet. Now, from what I gather, west, we double our chances. East, well, it's high risk, high reward.
Faith: Well, go for the reward. You don't want Ben to think you're boring.
Tyler: No, boring is not usually a problem for me, Faith.
Faith: The two cells to the west are fighting over the same inflow. They'll choke each other out. This one to the east has the sky all to herself. Moisture, wind shear, instability. All the things you need to give Ben a good show.
Tyler: City girl knows her stuff, Ben. I said, city girl knows her stuff, Ben.
Faith: Thanks. Maybe if I work real hard, I could be a Tornado Wrangler, too.
