The Tribe Season 1 Episode 2 Script

Zoot: Power and chaos

Dal: You know what your problem is most of this stuff is useless and not practical enough I mean what happens if you run out of batteries for your radio then we have to start again basic tools basic skills it’s what we need now

Jack: Really and who is it that trapped those elms out there the ones chasing you if you’re so smart you can help me fix this

Lex: Just shut it, I’m trying to think

Zandra: I feel terrible

Lex: You look terrible

Zandra: Well it’s not my fault you were the one who got us into this mess how are we gonna get of

Lex: That’s what I’m trying to figure out and when I do

Amber: You were saying when you get out

Lex: You’ll see you can’t keep us in here forever

Amber: Is that a fact

Lex: You’re gonna wish you never done this only by then it’ll be too late for wishing

Amber: It’s easy to make threats from behind bars

Lex: It’s not a threat it’s a promise I’m warning you

Jack: I don’t get it, it should work I’ve got the special Arial and everything maybe if we took it outside

Dal: It wouldn’t matter

Jack: Well thanks Einstein but could you tell me how you reach that blinking conclusion

Dal: The radio’s fine it’s everything else that’s wrong

Jack: Oh very scientific

Dal: There’s no one out there Jack that’s why you can’t hear anything

Jack: Don’t be stupid this radio can pick up stations from all over the world

Dal: That’s what I mean you remember those last few days the virus was everywhere it spread to fast nowhere was safe nowhere think about it Jack if there are any adults in the world what would they do there’s no television no internet the radio would be the first thing they’d use just like you’re doing

Jack: They can’t all have gone not all of them we’ve gotta keep trying

Dal: Jack we’re on our own

Amber: Jack, Dal the animals are awake we need to decide what to do

Zoot: Power and chaos

Locos: Power and chaos

Lex: For the last time let us out of here

Jack: Well it could be the last time if we just leave you in there till you starve

Lex: You, you couldn’t hurt anyone if your life depended on it nerd

Zandra: Lex he doesn’t mean it really

Dal: So what are we gonna do about them

Amber: Well the first question is what are we gonna do about us

Jack: What

Amber: Well they can’t get in but can we get out

Jack: There’s another way out through the old sewer

Dal: Come on Amber let’s just go

Amber: Dal we need somewhere to stay I think it should be here

Dal: But I thought we were heading out to the country to find an old farm that was the plan

Amber: Well plans change you and me maybe we could have done it but now there’s all the others here how do you think we’re going to get them out of the city without running into the Locos

Dal: But why do we have to look after them

Amber: Because they’d never survive without us would they this is the safest place for all of us for now if we stick together

Dal: You mean like start our own tribe

Amber: Maybe

Dal: But what do we do about them

Jack: Easy I just pull up the outside gate they have to go right back out on the street take there chances

Amber: We can’t trust them

Dal: Can we trust them outside what if they go to the Locos and lead them here

Jack: So we let them in or kick them out boss

Amber: If we’re gonna stick together we have to share what we have Jack

Jack: I um haven’t got much

Amber: Not much is better than nothing show us

Jack: That’s it that’s all I’ve got

Dal: I don’t believe you, you have ketchup I love ketchup

Amber: Thanks Patsy so who’s for beans tinned meat and ketchup

Jack: And we don’t have to have them cold not practical huh

Dal: I take it all back this man has ketchup

Ryan: I smell food

Zandra: I’m starving Lex what are we gonna do

Amber: Of course you have a choice

Zandra: What

Amber: We’ve been talking about what to do and we think the best thing would be to open the outside gate let you back out onto the streets

zandra: No please Lex say something

Lex:What choice

Amber: Ah it can listen

Lex: Are you in charge of these kids

Amber: Maybe for now you sure your in charge of them

Lex: So this choice

Amber: You can take your chance outside with the Locos or you can join us but on our terms we all share what we have we work together and maybe we stay safe maybe

Jack: Amber how can we know we can trust them the Locos may have sent them

Zandra: If that were true we’d be happy to go back outside wouldn’t we your not very smart for a nerd

Jack: Yeah well smart enough to trap you zero

Lex: You’ll wish you’d never done that

Amber: Sounds like you’ve made your choice open the outside gate Jack
