I remember a time before the Great Quake. Before the climate refugees called FEMA Camp's home. Before the labor laws and infertization program. They called her the lone survivor survivor. They called her the lone survivor. survivor, the savior of the refugees. But I called her mom. This is life on the changing earth.

T.J.? Who else has a key? No, I'm T.J. Where's my dinner? It's ready. I just have to warm it up. I saw you be back earlier. If I have to wait, I'm going to shower. Have a beer ready for me when I come out.

Okay. Hey, hey, tell me the story. You've been hiding yourself again. Turn your shame to glory and shake off the ball and change. What are you in chain, call me insane, call me a fool, you're in the game, you play by my rules. Show me, why do you care? I'm a black voucher. Send me a prayer on Australia. I'm afraid my way through the sky.

Let's go. Wave like you see me now. What are you doing here, Sergei? I'm sorry, sir. I told her to let me in. She's been told otherwise. Did you offer our guest any food? There's no more.

I'm sorry, T.J. DJ, it's cool. I already ate. Get back in the kitchen. So what the hell are you doing here? Hold that thought. Did you give me a warm beer? I'm sorry, DJ.

You're damn right, you are. Knock off your bluddering. Let the pain be a reminder. So what's your story? It's about Angelou. Here you go, DJ. Who? The fighter, you ran into, on your way home tonight.

What about it? He was supposed to run. The conflict tomorrow. So let him run it. You messed that boy up. Don't let him run the gallant. I have something better in mind. DJ.

I'm sitting him and his two boys north. If they can bring Erica back here, they can stay. If not, they better never show their faces around here again. Heavy hand, DJ. You're damn right, Sergei. These fighters will know who gives them life, just like you. I understand, DJ. You're a man that deserves respect.

I'll make it happen. Erica, what are you doing out here? I'm headed off to the library You've been going there a lot You want me to be a voice, right? How am I supposed to know what to say If I don't educate myself on this new system Hmm

What? You already know what to say You do that instinctually It never hurts to know what I'm up against What are you doing here anyway? Morning coffee with the master sergeant Lots of plans these days What do these plans look like

If you need to know The master sergeant would tell me You know, I don't appreciate being in the dark. Just know there are plans to mobilize if things go wrong. You have to understand the less you know, the better. There's a thing called plausible deniability. If I don't know, I don't have to lie. Exactly.

And what the master sergeant tells me, you're not a very good liar. I ran a resistance right under his nose for a lot of years, and he never knew. True, but I'm still not going to tell you. What about me? What happens to me and Vince if something goes wrong? We've got your back, Erica. No matter what happens, we'll care for you and your family. You ready to go?

Yeah, here comes Avery. Sorry, ma'am. I couldn't find my book, and I need to return it. You're fine, Earl just got here. Bye, Cole. Keep your head up. Seems I remember you telling me that before. I think you're right.

Did you find any cases like yours in the case works you've been studying? I found other cases of lost loved ones, but none with the circumstances or the time period even close to ours. Most refugees got cross-referenced with the search database when they were adopted out, but our family never was. It sure does create a unique situation. What happened to your family, Avery? They did factory work in Minnesota. That life wasn't for me. If I choose to fight, I got to get out of that place.

So, here I am. Did? What happened? There was a fire, and my parents and my sister didn't survive. Oh, man, I'm sorry to hear that. I've got something to cheer you up. What's that? I got to work on infected bull scrotum today.

last one I treated filled a whole bucket up with crusts filled up my shoe as well oh my goodness that is freaking nasty I think I just threw up in my mouth a little oh really that is not helping she'd be an interesting day and a wonderful smelling right home I'm not looking forward to it we'll see you later Are you going to wait at the door? Yeah, Major Virgis wants me on high alert. It's getting close to the trial date. Please don't remind me.

I'm going over to fiction. I'll let you know when I'm going over to the government records section. Avery, I'm going to... I got her guys! My knee! Don't even think about it. Where are you going, honey? Oh shit, my head.

Calm down, little girl. We're not going to hurt you, much. Hold still, you're coming with us. My arm! Get over here! Close in on her! I'm going home to my family tonight! So am I.

Get back here, bitch. Hey, reaction. I always knew that. We're good for something. You're okay. It's got equal and opposite reaction. I always knew that Newton's bus would be good for something. You okay? Hi. It's okay. I got you. Wondering if it is forever or is there some place that will make her feel better. Make a feel better. Then that's where she'll go. That's where she'll go. Who was it, Bennett?

I don't know, sir. No uniforms. Did you get a reading on their trackers? Those were the new federal ones. The reading has been blocked. We're going to have to take it to Brad. The body? No, just his arm. Where's Erica? She's over at the clinic, with Doc. And Avery?

He didn't make it, sir. Take her home. I'll wrap things up here. Yes, sir. You know you've been a good friend. And then through the thick and thin. And I know it's never going to end. Because you've been a good friend.

How are we doing, Cupcake? A lot better than Avery. How's she doing, Doc? I figure about 10 stitches and maybe broken rip. It's hard to tell from the x-ray. Looks like she's broken quite a few in the past. Sergeant Bennett's broken a few of them for me, having you, Sergeant? I didn't break them.

Don't worry, Doc. She's one tough cookie. Aren't you cupcake? There. All set. Are you taking her home? Yes, Burgess will want to talk to you. I figured it was going to be a long night.

In this world of hunger, war and stride. We can together, all included, build a better life. This bridge is made of hope. side by side home this bridge is made a home holy shit sergeant what happened

she's okay your dad gave her pain meds she fell asleep in the car She doesn't look okay. Here, I'll take her. She was attacked at the library. By who? I don't know.

The Merck soldiers were only brought in his backup. The government boys are in charge of this. Just one more week, and we're headed to the capital. We have to stay vigilant. If Erica looks like this, what happened to Avery? He's dead. Ah, I was afraid of that. Erica's lucky to be alive herself.

Three on one. That's one tough chick you got there. Your dad took out the last one, Newton's statue, to the dome. Way to go, Dad. So what do we do now? Do you think they'll try again? It's only a week. We have guards here, and Erica will be down for a few days.

Do you think so? You have a point. She'll take a day off, and then she can come out to the base during the day. She'll be safe there. Sean and Starr are headed to Wisconsin to do a show. Johnny's team is headed into the Badlands and could use a canine unit. Do you think that's safe? Vince, this is Johnny McClintock and the son of Dwayne McClintock, General of the Mercenary Forces.

Do you think he's sending his son's unit into danger? Plus, you cross the Badlands as a fugitive. It's not that bad of an area to patrol now. Erica may not be as hip on the idea. Well, you'll have to convince her, Vince. Well, that's easier said than done. What about Daniel? I think he could stay with your parents.

Bennett, you know we really hate splitting up. Yeah, but Vince, even I don't know what will happen on this adventure. We're going into the lion's den, and I don't know if we'll come out. Wouldn't you rather know he was safe? Would I really know? What if something happens to us? What if they rule against us and come from my son? How would I be able to live with that?

They'd do it either way, Vince. I'll tell you what. Let me talk to Major Virges, and as soon as the decision is made, we'll get a communication to him indicating whether he needs to get your boy to a safe house or not. Major Burgess is staying here? Yes, General McClintock will be there. Seriously? All the bigwigs, Vince.

Your story created quite a stir, and they think the only way to put it to rest is to have a council vote in front of the public. That way the citizens will have to respect their decision. So, what are our odds looking like? We'll have to wait and see. You want me to crash here tonight, just in case? Nah, Dexter's here with Trucker and Jack. I think we'll be fine.

Thanks, Master Sergeant. Good night. I'll be at my house if you need anything. Thanks, Bennett. How could I let you go alone? Where have I been? I missed you so much. And now look at my baby. I let you go and almost lost you again.

I'm afraid I might have given up. I'm afraid I'm wrong. running low on love I'm afraid that in the end you're more than I deserve Every time I count my blessings

I count you first Every time I count my blessings I count you first Every time I count my blessings I count my blessings I count you first In this cold and misty world Would you be my little light

Just for atmosphere I don't need it to see But I know that you can't promise me Your whole heart if you're honest dear But 51% That would be just fine. Every time I count my blessings, I count you first.

You may be helping to save a life. Sir, come on in. No, Mr. Lee. Let him continue. I want to hear what he has to say. DJ, sit down.

He answers to me, Mr. Lee. I can handle this. Don't make the wrong decision, son. Sit down. Serge, have a seat. Let's discuss this problem like gentlemen. He's gone too far this time. What happened? You know, Angelo?

He's a fine fighter. Very promising young man. Exactly. I was getting ready to move him into command of a team. I beat you to it. No. You beat the hell out of him and sent him. and two other quality fighters on a suicide mission.

They may make it. Then why didn't you go? We had this conversation, Sergei. These men will know I provide for their lives, just like you should. DJ sit out. Just tell me why you chose to make an example of him. My business is my own. And mine, son.

Tell the man what he wants. wants to know. A few days ago when Commander Gray and I were leaving, the little son of a bitch was boasting about how he could take me and run my empire. He needed to know his place. See, sir, that's a valid reason. How to skin any of you if I heard you talking that way. I understand that he needed a lesson in humility.

But DJ sent him north to get Erika and told him not to come back with the elder. That wasn't a plan you discussed. Commander Gray here. But it's that plan that I discuss privately with the commander. We get the girl, Mr. Lee. We get the family. This is on my shoulders. The colonel knows nothing about it.

Why even bother, DJ? Why not? I'm bored. You see, Mr. Lee. This is what I'm talking about. A quality fighter was sent to his death because DJ was bored. Have so little faith, Sergei? He'd be such a quality fighter. We should expect him to bring home the bounty.

He failed, DJ. The team is dead. This girl is good. And Angelo is dead. Sounds like the Erkin bastard needed a test. And if he couldn't pass, it's not T.J.'s fall. You two need to let this trip between one another go. You've always been loyal, Sergei. I'm sorry about your loud-mouthed fighter. you have my respect, DJ. I'd appreciate the heads-up sometimes. Are you sure we can't come, Mom?

I would love to take you, Danny. But you have to have a pass to get into the central region. And only dad and I were told to come. Sucks. We don't split up. I know. There's nothing I can do. What if you don't come home? They're definitely coming home, Danny. You don't know, Dexter. No one does. Not Bennett and not even Burgess.

You are not wrong, Danny. But the Lord has always washed over us in the past. I don't know why he'd stop now. How about you say some prayers for us? I guess I can do that. And Cole has plans in place if things go. Don't say it, Dad. You guys will be home in a couple of days. But if we are, just listen to Cole.

I will. Grandpa knows the plan as well. Okay. All aboard! I love you guys. You boys stay safe. Stevens, let's go. I love you guys too.

Are you sure you have to go? Come on, Daniel. Let them go. Inside your heart, a little space when things get hard. Well, I will be there when you need. I will never be that far. And I will say it like you, that I'm so proud of you. It won't take long for us to reach the wall. Are you going to sit down?

I'm sorry, Erica. I want to make sure everything goes right. Trust me. I understand. Holy shit. Did you see the size of that. Oh, my, it's massive. And that's just the first one.

We're going to have to line up for inspection. Just do what they tell you, and we'll get through it. Are you nervous, Master Sergeant? Don't play games, Erica. It's not that time. I'm just joking. I know. Don't.

Everyone out. Here we go! Here we go! Here we go! Everyone quiet. Line up against the wall. Turn and face the wall. Put your hands on the wall and spread your legs.

That includes you, Master Sergeant. Let's see what we have here. A pretty little woman. Hey, that is my wife. Stoitt, citizen. Let's see what you're carrying. Dang, man! It's nothing personal, sweetie. I would say that's pretty damn personal.

You want to have words with me, citizen? Here are there travel papers. I know precisely who these landowners are. No better than refugee scum. Maybe they should have stayed in the desert. Would you like to explain to the federal governing board why the Moors did not arrive, soldier? Maybe it would save the governing board some time.

You're clean. Get back on the train. Sir. I thought I was a dick. I thought it was going to rip mine off. I told you, it's a different world here. Tanks? They have tanks between the walls? No one who is not welcome gets in. Or out. This is sketchy, Bennett.

It's what it is. They don't have a choice. Canada isn't looking so bad. Oh, jeez. We'll get through this, Cupcake. Hold on, wait for the morning till the sun comes over the hills. Make your car. I will listen patiently

How are you to know? How are you to know? It's all the things you do you want to come mr lee hell no i'm not going out into that city especially not during the trial i'm thinking all hell could break loose sergey eury and anthony could be the blockers nait and i will make sure the girly and her husband find their way back to their new home you know i'm coming you want to go into that shit i wouldn't miss it chaos is where i feel most at ease not me i want to get the girl early and get out of there.

I'm going into the trial. You want to come? I thought you'd never ask, huh? You know I'm not waiting outside with Sergei and Yuri. You can tell Sergei, he wanted to come with me. Well, he can suck it the hell up. What's your plan? They'll bring the woman in through the underground access point through the eastern tunnel.

She'll already be under the Federal Guard when she enters the capital. Some of them are on the will, T.J. I know that. So, Sergei, Yuri, and Anthony will be. in the tunnel as soon as Erica enters the stadium. Isn't there another exit to the north from that holding area? There is. The gray will have maximum security measures in place.

There's a steel door on that tunnel to prevent access. Sounds easy enough. We're going to have eyes on her the whole time. Today, she's not escaping. Look at this city. it's incredible see that giant snow globe in the middle that's where we're headed

the city sections are built into the ground not just into the ground there's a gigantic concrete bowl on ball bearings they rock with the earth plus the tops closed to protect them from storms on the surface well they certainly have been busy

I don't have to tell you who built it the refugees exactly You ready for this cupcake? As ready as I'm going to be. How about you, Vince? I can't believe we are here after all we've been through. Because there's nothing left to do now but to do it.

Sir, my team will accompany you to the central pavilion. Thank you, soldier. Box formation. Push those people back. Happy to have you here, Ms. Moore. It's about time someone stood against this bullshit. Thank you. To the one leg defiant nation

And the side of you is coming back As the light of day is turning back And I can see you on the other side Watch your step, ma'am. Into the heart of the beast. What if a quake happens while we're in here? Probably one of the best places to be, ma'am. And here we are, a central pavilion.

Oh, I'm leaving this. Only you and I relax forever There's a power to stay together I was not ready for this Makes you feel pretty small, doesn't it? The story of my life Your table is over here How many people can they fit in here?

Max capacity is 10,000 sir But the bottom level has 6,000 seats for landowners owners in the upper refugee section holds the other 4,000. You're seated here. You will use that stage and those microphones when they call on you. Master Sergeant, the board has requested you remain for questioning as well. Your guard team will wait at the door. Understood. We're sitting down here. Front row behind the colonel? Nice, T.J.

That way I can watch a girly in all the exits. They're in position at the exit. When are you going to get the kids? I'm sitting Yuri and Nate next week. You're sending Yuri? Their eldest son is a canine soldier. He could be a formidable fighter already. Sergey wants the dog.

I know he likes her blue eyes. I told him he could have her. Here she comes. The smaller man is her husband, and the larger is her guard dog, Master Sergeant Bennett. She's a tiny thing. She's a tiny thing. Acting so brave. We'll see how long that lasts. Noel Regent delegates social safety party members,

Bracin Webb, and Eleanor Porter, Peacekeepers, board board. Representing the Appalachian Region social safety official, Bharat, Sanzar, and... I don't know why the colonel puts up with this charade. If his voice was the only voice, it'd be so much clearer. Southern Region Social Safety represent.

Representative Ashton Kelly and Progressional Party member Caden Johnson, the Western Region delegates social safety representatives Paxton Turner and Isaiah Haynes. And our Central Region delegates Philip Cannon from Social Safety Party and Callum England from the Congressional Party. Finally, the people who do the real work in this country. Marvin Foster from the Appalachian region Matthew Tweed from the Las Vegas camp and Corian Sheldman from the biggest pain in RS director Corrine Jolman and our central region

FEMA camp director and leader of our great nation Colonel Nicholas Henderson Finally, our peacekeepers, General Lays and Mays and General Dwayne McClure. Dumb and dumber. She looks just as more with this shit as we are. The first quarter of business is the annual quota. Hey fellow patriots, Bravo Echo here. Are you paying attention to what is happening in our great nation?

Are you prepared? If not, come see us. at Hopefor Survival.com. That's Hopefor Survival.com. Be safe and be blessed. The next world of business is the situation involving Vince and Erica Moore.

Will you please step forward? Here we go. Fucking tweed. Looking all smug. Just chill, baby. Let's review the specifics of your case, shall we? Sure.

You were captured at the western border, Lee, California, Frigg. Yes. We had the date here as November following the Great Way. Is that great? Yes. Did you go willingly with the soldiers? Yes. Our horses and my wife's dog were taken from us at this point.

And then we were taken to Las Vegas. answer my question, Mr. Moore. Who was the camp coordinator at the time? The camp did not have an assigned manager at that point. We were held at gunpoint at an airport while the soldiers fought back the surrounding citizens and added them to the people inside the gates. The city was in shambles and the refugees were put to work building additional walls and shampings to house them. Mr. Moore, please only answer the questions or I will have you arrested and remove. Do you understand, Mr. Moore?

Yes, sir. So that was before there wasn't a science site manager? Yes. Were your family registered when Matthew Dube was a science manager? Yes. We even had tracking chips installed in our box. Oh, this man knows how to stir a crowd. The colonel better get a grip on that. You and your wife have a hard time following directions.

Step in the river. May I ask you something, sir? That girl he did not just question him out of turn. It would appear that she did. It's highly unusual, but sure. He's going to address her. He can't let her talk. Erica.

If we were registered at that point and my in-laws were looking for us, why were we not found and removed? The man responsible for that is right there, and he just tried to have me killed a week ago. Look! What are wrong, girly? Do you have a group of that allegation, Ms. Moore? No, sir, but he has abused us ever since he was assigned in the Las Vegas camp manager. Your names were lost to the system, mainly because you were never adopted. We had reports of insomber nation and multiple escape attempts.

Is that right? Yes. We were scared when the infertility law was passed, and we wanted to escape before our children were sterilized. That's not all you did. You were an armed ride against the better forces where the soldiers were harmed. soldiers were hot and cropped. Thank you.

Sir, tell me what you would do if someone came and took your children and altered them so they could no longer bear children of their homes. What would you do? I can't tell you because I've never had children. The laws we live by are all enforced by the greater few of all Americans. The population must be held in chair. Without laws, we would have chaos. Desper people with no homes arming themselves against those who won't land. On the same note, we're a merciful country and feel responsible for opinion for those Americans.

for those Americans who have lost so much. Landowners have been charged caring for those four souls. Our God-given duty is to feed and house them in their time of need. You admit to organize the rebellion. You admit to organize a rebellion, Yes. They're mine, Chuck. The man just admitted to his crime.

You might as well get ready to collect them now. See you through, DJ. You'd never know what politicians will do. Even after this act of the subordination, you were given a post for Mr. Queen's illustrious rescue squad. Is that correct? I want Eric Moore to answer this series of questions given that shoot-appointed squad leader. Yes, sir.

Despite your actions before you're placed on this team, you have an exemplary record during your time when the rest of the team made. Thank you, sir. Why did you decide to join the rescue squad after your former abilities actions against the federal forces? When we first arrived at the refugee. camp, we had no idea what was happening, sir. We had our weapons, animals, and freedom totally removed from us, but survived. We didn't care we didn't get adopted because we wanted to stay

together. Anger spread around the camp like wildfire when the infertility law was passed. We did what we thought was right for our loved ones. We were punished for our actions and spent nine years in that camp. So when Mr. Tweed offered the position, it seemed like the only way to advance our lives to a better place. I understood my role within the squad

and performed it, sir. She's good, Chuck. Very smooth. It's going to make them think twice. This next question will be directed at Matthew Tweed during this time. Again applying for the position. you ought to find out, is that correct, Mr. Tweed? Yes, sir.

I understand that your rescue squads were analyzed, and the names of the missing lane was met, those of your rescue squad members at this time. Is that correct? Yes, sir. Mr. Tweed, while were these individuals not immediately told and moved from their posts? Sir, as rescue team squad members,

your team was already scheduled for a mission and budget with RALA. After the mission is completed, they were scheduled to return to Minnesota. Is it correct that these landowners were then arrested? Oh, they got them now. Why was this action taken? Sir, I received word of a plan revolt that was going to take place.

Then Master Sergeant Bennett came to me and told me the more as an escape plan. Given the past track record, I'm confident that I helped plan the scandal revolt, so I arrested them. Even as landowners, this is a protocol for protesters. You know the law, sir. He's blaming the revolt on us? He knows there's no way we can prove we weren't involved. The riot that I was informed up did happen the next night. Five soldiers were killed and we lost eight prisoners that night.

Five belonging to the war family. Eric Moore, your husband admits that you two were involved in organizing any revolt in the pest. Conveniently, your family escaped during a riot. Are you involved in the organization of this revolt? No, sir. Why did you escape and not return yourselves in if you were not involved? How can you explain this, ma'am? I can't.

I can't explain why the Great Quake happened. I can't explain why. I was the only one to survive the devastation that took the capital city of California. California. I can't explain why I've been tied up so many times. I now have permanent scars around my wrist or beat up so many times I can't even stand before you today without bruises. I can't tell you why the government closed the borders of California and left all those people to die. I can't tell you why the soldiers rounded us up like cattle and housed us in conditions where we ate rats to survive. I can't tell you why our names are.

were lost, why my children were mutilated. But I can tell you what it was like to look at a future without freedom in sight. And I can tell you this, sir. I had nothing to do with the remote the night we escaped. There's a time I do to stand together. Sit her down. Masterfully done. This girlie is outstanding. I can't wait to go to work, Chuck. She'll have a lot more scars when I'm done. You'll take a 15-minute recess. Let's go get her T.J.

Can you believe the nerve of that fucking jerk, blaming all that shit on us? I don't know what will happen, Vince. He was awfully convincing. Cole was right. How do you mean? If we knew what was going on, we would have looked guilty. We will now bring to both the matter of the moral family. A yay vote will maintain. their landowner status and sends them to two years of probation and they both strip them of their landowner status to place them to a prison gate we start with the northern region yay yeah appalachian region yay yeah southern region

yeah yeah central region yay yeah all right maybe western region yeah no look at tweed with his smug little smile. You still have the FEMA directors. Now, the FEMA manager will welcome. I'll start with a name. Mr. Carlin. Yay. Mr. Forster.

Name. Mr. Tweed. Man. That's five years and five names. Ms. Tillman, that's all comes down to you. Yay. This family has been through enough.

Oh, thank you, Lord. Remove them from the stadium, Master Sondon. We've got to get you guys out of here. Where did the guards go? Chinder Mace pulled his team and gave General McClintock complete jurisdiction over your sentencing. The feds don't care if you live. ever die. What?

That crazy woman gave them to the Merks? What do you want to do, DJ? We can take Bennett's tiny team. Stand down. Anderson does not want to create an incident. An incident? That woman creates chaos wherever she goes. Here they come. Make a call to you. We stand down. We have our orders. Let's at least follow them.

If they get overwhelmed by the ground, we can take them instead of letting them get trampled. Sounds like a plan, Sergei. I'm headed out. I'm not getting dreamt. I thought you'd live for chaos. I do, but I don't have a death punch. We did it. We're free. And the whole country heard our story. Calm down, baby. We're not out of this yet. You two stay close.

One, two. One, two, three, four. There they are! It's Erica! Look! Take back your freedom! You can hate me, trying to play me. Time to make me. You can try to silence everywhere. I'm going to be right. I'm going to leave.

I won't believe. I'm going to leave. You cannot be Try that smart, baby You can show you in Try to love you can do your best to shut me up But I will not be leaving Quietly

I won't leave I won't leave I will not be living Quietly I'm gonna stand here in a factor Every one the truth until you know it's her I'm not to stand you in a hot girl

where I'm going to shout the truth until you know it's her yeah A fight for your right You can scold me I seem to betray me Bend me and censor and label and troll me You can push me and try to kick me out I will not be leaving, quietly.

I won't leave. I won't leave. I will not be leaving, quietly. You can use me, strike and dispute me. Dumb down the rest, yeah, but I'll keep refusing. You can pretend like you've seen the last of me. That I will not be leaving, quietly. I won't leave

I won't leave I will not be leaving Quietly I'm gonna stand there in a fight for every word I'm going to share the truth until you know it's heard I'm gonna stand there in a fight for every word I'm going to share the truth until you know it's freedom You can hate me, try to print me, talk me down it, demonstrate me.

You can try to silence every word, I will not believe it, quietly, not. I won't leave, I won't leave, I will not be leaving, I will not be I will not be leaving, quietly, now, I won't leave, I won't leave. I won't leave, I will not be leaving... What are they doing? What are they doing? They're locking down the city. Oh!

Oh! What? Mr. Lee, we're home. You bring her home, son? No, Mr. Lee. The board turned on Henderson. It came down to Tillman's vote. She voted against Henderson?

She did. Said the family's been through enough. I can expect we'll be sending men out that way again. You know that's the truth. Her son will be a cripple by the time Yuri's done with him. Just let me add him, T.J. That bitch has it coming. You should have seen this woman, Robert. She's phenomenal. The board didn't have a chance. If they would have voted against her, they would have had a full-on riot on their hands.

He's not wrong, Mr. Lee. They had to lock down the city as it was. Yeah, but we brought home to quality stock. Landowners in the wrong place in the wrong time. Now they're my refugees. Fine ladies, Robert. I'll bring one to you tomorrow. It doesn't sound like a bad day then. I want this girly, Mr. Lee. I'm going to hang her on my wall so all the other refugees can see where their defiance gets them.

What was the final ruling? Federal probation. Henderson gave McClintock jurisdiction. You know, that was the board's decision, not his. Oh, I know. That's why I'm going myself the next time we have a chance to pick her up. I will bring her home. You've got the time to hunt her.

Our lands are quiet. The fighters are growing fat. We'll have plenty for them to do when the war starts. Keep them ready, Mr. Lee. What's the word on that? You know it's coming soon. Henderson won't stand for this. Prepper Broadcasting Network is nine dynamic hosts.

If you touch me with that, I will break your freaking arm, Dr. Costanza. Now, Erica, slip up, calm down. I'm in a tracker. installed as a condition of your probation.

No. Vince, talk from Sanson to your wife. Both have to have trackers installed as conditions of your probation. Oh, hell no. You two don't have a choice. The hell we don't? What is the problem in here? Cole, there is no way you're putting one of those things back into me.

Yes, you will, Erica. Is a direct order from the general. I don't really care about orders. Well, you better because you're on federal probation, Eric. You're just lucky General Mays gave up jurisdiction to General McClintock. One slip cupcake, and you're headed to the prison camp. Oh, really? How did that rebellion start the same day you conveniently got me out?

It's like Major Verge just said. You're just lucky, I guess. I have more good news for you, Cupcake. What's that? General McClintock has ordered your housing pod moved here on base, so we get to stay here. Isn't that great, hopscotch? Ow, damn it!

Wonderful. The tracker can be removed when the probation period is over. You'll be landowners again. You got lucky. I don't feel so lucky. Trust me. It was a best case scenario. Vince and Daniel can take the transport to the farm during the day,

and after two years, your pod will be moved back. I guess that's better than a prison camp. Try to pin me down. You don't have a clue. Wouldn't understand if I showed you, showed you, Every bit of me in the palm of your hand The thought of me is bigger than you know, then you know Start forsaking everything that I've done

Won't be breaking easily now I could make it even though the lights are out So I'll wait for my cue So tell me straight up, up, up, I don't want it, it, in, no other way. I'll see you this afternoon. We're going to get some training time in together. Really? You're coming to hang out with me? Yes, ma'am. I can never get enough time with you.

Awesome. I'll see you later then. Good morning of life The roads that lay open are many When the old one's gone under the knife Good morning, Brad What are you doing here? I'm just saying good morning. Good morning, Erica.

Bennett told me I wasn't supposed to be hanging out with you. Don't worry about Sergeant Fuddy-Duddy. He can be a jerk sometimes. He got that right. What are you doing? I'm counting on me the tracker. extractor today. That's cool. How does that thing work anyway?

This guy that takes hold of the track and removes the alarm. Then you put the code in here and shut it off. That's really all there is to it. How do you know what the shutdown code is? It's tricky. Some scramble the codes more than others. What if you don't turn it off? Nothing happens. I would keep transmitting from that location.

Look here. These are new tracking systems. These comes completed with the tattoo can never be removed. Never? Nope. Well, at least I didn't get one of those. You're going to be free one day, Erica. It's a good thing.

Erica, you were supposed to meet me over at the gym. Sorry, I got distracted. Come on. I want to show you the search patterns this morning. Again? Yes. I've been looking for you two everywhere. Sorry, sir.

We were headed over to the strategy room as scheduled. Someone got sidetracked this morning. It's okay. One more chairs have turned to constitutional party representatives. Let's celebrate. Really? Yeah, we could have Starr's band come to the base, plus Dexter and Johnny are coming back into town. Oh, I can't wait to see them!

I knew you'd be as happy about that one as I am. Bennett, would you mind joining me so we can plan the celebration? I was going to... I'll be fine, Bennett. Vince is coming soon, and I'll train with him. You sure, Cupcake? Go. I'll be fine. Go to the gym.

I will. Geez. We're in this together. We're in this together. We're in this together, yeah. We're in this together. We're in this together. Hey Brad, the party's starting. Have you seen Vince and Bennett?

No. What's up? It's a day for celebration. Why are you so sad? I'm getting married. Isn't that normally good news and cause for more celebration? Of course, but she lives in Tucson, Arizona, and I've been trying to get her in Christ's regional residential pass,

but the application process has been delayed. I had to get her out before... Before what, Brad? Before the next wave hits. What are you talking about? You know how the quakes just suddenly stopped? Yeah. In my opinion, the place are locked, building up energy.

and the next one hits I would take down what remains of the ice caps and we may see additional volcanic activity and that means another rise in ocean levels and all the coasts would be hit again what about East Texas and Las Vegas they may make it my mom is down there and all those people at Las Vegas camp

my friends no one's going to warn them no the plan is to only mobilize to handle the aftermath no one has any idea what to do with more refugees Do Master Sergeant Bennett and Major Virgis know this? Yes, but you have to promise me that you won't tell them that I told you. Bennett said that you would freak out. Yeah, well, he was right.

Please promise me you won't tell them, Erica. He'll be so mad. Have you ever seen Master Sergeant Bennett angry? I've seen Master Sergeant Bennett quite a few levels past pissed off on too many occasions. I promise I won't tell him. But you have to promise me you will go out to the party and enjoy yourself. But, but I have to make calculations here. It'll be there tomorrow. Come on.

Wow, this is amazing. Burgess invited the community. They brought food and beer. Let's go get a drink. Sounds like a good idea. You! Mom, there you are. Hi Scar.

I heard the trial went well. Probation is better than federal prison. I guess a couple more years under Bennett's thumb won't kill me. I've got gigs lined out down south. It was a miracle we got the cross region passes, but we did. We're taking the ferry down the Mississippi Sea. That sounds like a fantastic adventure. Remember those old paddle boats you showed me in the pictures? Yeah?

Sean's playing on one. I gotta go check in with a band. I'll find you later, Mom. I'll go find Dad. Love you, Superstar. Love you, too, Mom. Hey, Dex. Hi, Erica.

Hi, Johnny. You guys look thin. We've been patrolling the badlands. There's a lot of walking and not a lot of dinner. There's no shortage of food here. Make sure you guys get some. When are you headed back out? Tomorrow. We just came in for the party and a chance to say hello.

So soon? Work to be done, Mom. I guess so. I'm going to get changed out of my uniform. I'll be right back. Sounds good. I'll be here. There you are.

Playing dice? I should have known. And win it, too. I need a partner to dance with. Bennett's over there, half in his foot. Dancing with Sergeant Grumpy. I guess there's worse things in life. Come on, Sergeant, let's dance.

Oh, no, Cupcake. I'm too drunk to dance. You're dancing right now. Get your shit together, Sergeant. Let's go. Maybe take us your vacation Little rest and relaxation Can never hurt it all

Something so typical I need a break Let's just don't grab a drink Fennick Do you think that the worst is over? What? What are you talking about now, hopscotch? The Earth has settled down a lot since the Great Quake.

Do you think that we'll see another quake like the big one? Well, I don't know. I'm a soldier, not a damn scientist. Tell me straight up, up, up, I want it, it's no other way. Time for another. Dang, Bennett. Why? Cofcake? What's wrong? Can't you hold your liquor? Let's get back in line then. It worries me because my mom's on the coast, and all my friends in Las Vegas could be in jeopardy if anything like that happened again.

Erica, Erica, what? I ordered you to stop being so serious and start having some fun. It's a celebration, not a speculation party. Yes, sir. bit of me and the palm of your end. The thought of me is bigger than you know. They know. How'd you do? So close.

A cold one. There's the kids. Let's go visit. Both of them have to leave tomorrow. So soon. That's what I said. Well, at least we get to enjoy the night. watch me fly so watch me fly

so watch me fly oh oh for you Good morning, sir. Have you seen Erica or Vince since the party? No, I haven't. Their kids left yesterday. They're probably out at the farm. They should have been there this morning. Hold on. They're in Brad's office. Hello, Major. Are Erica and Vincent here?

No. What? Son of a bitch. Who taught them to remove their trackers, Brad? I don't know. I may have... You may have what, Brad? I may have shown her how to do it.

She's always curious and wants to know everything. What else have you told her, Brad? Nothing. Why is it that I don't believe you? What did you tell her? I told her about the next wave. Fuck. Did you tell her that I knew all about this?

Maybe. I bet her not to tell you. She's going to get her mom and friends. She doesn't think she can trust us because we didn't tell her. Oh shit. That's what she was talking about at the concert. What do you mean? At the concert.

I was so drunk, she kept asking me if I thought we'd have another quake. She was probing to see if I would tell her. But I didn't. You didn't know she knew. Maybe there's still time to catch her. I'll go check her pod. Where did you end up? Where did you go?

Where do you stay? Do you feel happier this way? Is this really what you want? They're gone. Took their packs and weapons. What are we going to do? Should we shut down the borders and tell the general? They probably left with Sean's band.

What should we do, Major? Take a team and follow them. Come in. You wanted to see me, sir? You ready to head north? Just say when, sir. One week. Round up whoever you want.

There's only one family I'm after. That's what I wanted to hear. Bring them here and keep them quiet. Yes, sir. Cut my eyes set on you. Got my aim in my game. Pull the trigger tonight. Won't let you out alive.
