Radio noise is heard. Matthias is standing around, with Tucker not farther away and Caboose cleaning Tucker's suit.

Matthias: Come in, Blue Command. This is Blood Gulch Outpost Alpha. Do you read me?

Caboose: Okay, that is the last of it. Your armor is clean now!

Tucker: Did you get all the black stuff off?

More radio noise is heard. To Vic sitting at his control panel.

Vic: This is Blue Command. Come in, Blood Gulch Outpost Alpha.

Matthias: Hello, Command! We need help!

Vic: Roger that, Blood Gulch. What is your request?

Matthias: The situation down here is pretty bad. One of our guys has been killed. We need reinforcements.

Vic: Roger that. Did you get the tank we sent?

Matthias: Yeah, that got blown up by an enemy bombing run.

Vic: Wow. Sucks to be you.

Matthias: Yeah, we know.

Vic: Okay, here's what I can do. The nearest Blue forces can be there in 16 days, or I-

Matthias: 16 days!?

Tucker: 16 days!? That's almost 2 weeks!

Matthias: Private, shut up! I'm on the radio!

Vic: OR I can hire a nearby Freelancer and get him there within a few hours.

Caboose: I like the "in an hour" one.

Tucker: Yeah, me too.

Matthias: Okay, then. Roger that, Command. We will take the Freelancer, thank you.

Vic: 10-4, Blood Gulch. We'll contact Freelancer Tex and have them there post-haste. Command out.

Radio cuts off.

Tucker: Whoever he is, make sure he can fix a tank.

Matthias: There's no need for that. I can fix up the tank just fine. Not that I mind the help, of course.

Caboose: What's a Freelancer?

Tucker: Freelancers are independent. They're not Red or Blue. They're just guns for hire who'll fight for whoever has the most money.

Caboose: Like a mercenary.

Tucker: Right. Or like your mom when the rent's due.

Caboose: ...Oh, that's funny.

Tucker: Yeah? You didn't think that was too obvious?

Caboose: No, no, not at all. It- It was good.

Beatrice: (appears) Tucker, your disgusting.

A semi-transparent Church fades into view between Tucker and Caboose.

Church: (ghostly voice) Matthias...Matthias...

Matthias: (raises gun) Who the hell are you!?

Church: I am the ghost of Church, and I've come back with a warning!

Caboose: You're not Church! Church is blue. You're white!

Church: (normal voice) Rookie, shut up, man! I'm a freakin' ghost! Have you ever seen a blue ghost before?

Tucker: Yeah, that's definitely him.
