After the events in Solis, Rico Rodriguez finds a nice a house to settle down in. So does Sheldon, Mira, and everyone else involved. Mira decides to give Cesar Pedrone complete control over the weather research facility, Zona Tres. Cesar decided it would be a good idea to have a television channel in Solis completely dedicated to news and weather. After it's set up, Cesar begins his work. While keeping an eye on what's happening around the world weather wise, he notices a system headed toward the island.

CNN Reporter:  We are keeping an eye on a Category 4 hurricane headed toward South America.

Cesar: Shit. SHIT! SHIT!

His assistant: What is it Senior?

Cesar: Hurricane. Category 4. Get Mira on the line

Assistant: Si, senior.

Cesar:  Mira, we have a situation.

Mira: What is it, Cesar?

Cesar: We have a category 4 hurricane headed toward the island. And it's strengthening!

Mira: Are you kidding me!

Cesar: We need to figure out how to warn everyone and evacuate lower lying sections of the island. Come over to Zona Tres. We can track the storm from there.

Mira: Already on my way--

Tom: Cesar,  what's this Mira's talking about a Hurricane?

Mira: Shut up and get in the helicopter, Sheldon.

Tom: Alright, alright... but if a hurricane is actually headed toward Solis, I could probably help. Back in Texas, we would have hurricanes all the time. I know what precautions we need to take.

Tom,  Mira,  and Izzy hop into the helicopter and fly over to Zona Tres.

Cesar: You're going to love what I've done with this place!

The group walks into the glass dome weather lab.

Cesar: Anyway,  a strengthening hurricane is headed toward Solis.  What are we supposed to do?

Mira:  Shit.  We have to get a warning out. Those who don't have the internet will have no idea--

Izzy: On it.

She set down her laptop and begin working.

Izzy: Aaaaaaaaand done. Just type what you want to say. I tapped into the radio stations in Neuva Vos. It will play a chime and an artificial voice will speak out the lines you type.

Cesar typed out some lines. He grabbed a nearby radio and what he typed played over.

Izzy: Nice. WAIT.  This dome was built to protect from controlled tornadoes. An uncontrolled hurricane will completely wipe out this place if it's strong enough. Even if it's not strong enough, debris will break the glass, making the servers vulnerable to the weather. We are not prepared. We need to move all of these servers.

Cesar: We need to prepare. Mira, these winds are too strong for a helicopter. And the Verdad 1 takes to much gasoline; 12 kpg. We need new cars. I've drawn up some plans for some cars we can build. Much better on gasoline, and it's pretty spacious inside.

Mira: Si, first let's build the cars. If we're going to be reporting on this storm, we need decent vehicles. Izzy, you need one too to carry the servers to a safe place. Tom, you want one?

Tom: Sure!

Cesar: Come over to the garage. We need to build these now.

Tom:  Well, what are we waiting for? Let's start preparing.
