Tucker is standing in front of Dylan and Jax. Dylan wanted to interview Tucker as to how he felt about Grif quiting them.
"They say a chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Grif wants to quit? Good riddance! I'm sick of carrying his fat butt anyway. Honestly, we could probably lose a few others while we're at it. Donut for starts. Simmons, Sarge, Lopez. Red Team. We're just being honest, right? I'm the team leader, I'm the one who matters!"
Simmons comes around a corner. "We found it!"
"SIMMONS! DON'T INTERRUPT." Tucker yells.
"I wasn't talking to you, Tucker!" Simmons retorts. "We found it, Miss Dylan, another relay!"
"On our way!" Dylan then gives Jax the kill gesture and he shuts off his camera.
"Are you sure you got all that?" Tucker asks. "I could do it again! I'm always down for another round Bow-Chicka-Bow-Wow!"
"Nope, we got it. Enough takes. Thanks." Dylan replies quickly.
They then approach the Reds and Caboose who were standing guard.
Dylan inspects the relay. "Yeah, this is it."
"It's just like the others?" Tucker asks.
"More or less...I understand what it does, but not how it does it. This and the other relay beacons obviously have been bouncing Zone and Church's signal around until it was picked up by Chorus. But these components, I can't even tell what this is.
"It's a Bop-It."
Dylan stands and looks at Tucker confused. "A what?"
"A Bop-It. Some dumb kids' toy. Caboose has one."
"Uh, had one." Caboose clarifies. "Yup, he was my friend, but I bopped him against a rock and now he's sleeping...in tiny pieces."
"Someone is building experimental technology out of kids' toys?" Dylan says in disbelief.
"Can you still do your trace thing with your AI?" Tucker inquires.
"Yeah. Same as before. It'll take some time but I should be able to retrace the signal back a step."
"And in the meantime?" Simmons breathes.
"We can take a look around for other clues." Tucker answers.
"OR...this place is pretty spooky. I think it would make a GREAT location for a horror movie!" Jax states. "I got this one idea about a really fat zombie called Dead Weight..."
Simmons bursts out laughing. "Grif, you are perf-" He turns and remembers that Grif is not with them. "..Oh. Right."
Sarge is staring off into the distance. "Quiet. There's something out there."
"Is it Church?" Caboose asks.
"No. Something in the shadows...something...evil..." Sarge says ominously.
"Don't scare Caboose, Sarge!" Tucker snaps. "Everybody! Church and Zone may have left some clues behind, so while we wait for Dylan's AI to trace the signal, we're gonna take a look around."
"About that. I've been crunching some numbers and by my estimation, it's gonna take approximately seventeen days to search this entire urban area." Simmons points out.
"So we split up and cover more ground."
"Hey-ey! You already know your lines!" Jax turns to Sarge. "Now you say-"
"DOOM! YOU'RE ALL DOOOOMED! This city...is haaauunteeed!" Sarge declares in spooky voice.
"What?!" Caboose says scared.
