Locos: That thing credits for a stray, hey you
Lex: You okay Salene
Salene: Fine thanks
Zandra: I thought I told you to lay of
Lex: What I was only trying to console her
Zandra: Well don't
Lex: When did you get so heartless Zandra you never been dumped before
Zandra: Bray didn't dump her
Lex: I thought you said he was sleeping with Trudy
Zandra: He's just confused that's all
Lex: Ah that's the sort of confusion I could live with
Zandra: Drop it Lex unless you wanna know what it feels like to be dumped
Chloe: Ow, ow
Jack: Look at that clear as a bell I'm a genius, I am a genius
Dal: What are you on about
Jack: Pure rain water collected and filtered for drinking just looking at it makes me feel kind of
Dal: Humble
Jack: Yeah, yeah that's it that's the word
Dal: Give me that
Jack: What for
Dal: Ryan needs it he's gonna the stream with Bray
Jack: Why take the risk we've got our own supply
Dal: Sorry to break it to you Jack but we need a lot more water than that thing can provide unless you've found a way to make it rain three times a day shouldn't be to hard for a genius
Zandra: He's a two timing rat all men are the same you think Bray's different just cause he's always rushing around being a super hero
Salene: He is different he has principles
Zandra: What principles leading you on like that he's no better than any of them
Salene: Leave it Zandra
Zandra: Tell me I'm wrong
Salene: First of all he isn't two timing anyone he had a choice and and he chose Trudy and that's the end of it
Zandra: I know it may seem that way but lets not be haste
Salene: What do you mean
Zandra: Well have it out with him at least don't give up without a fight
Salene: You've just been telling me he's not worth it
Zandra: True but at least he's good looking I mean all I'm saying is if you really want him do something about it
Jack: Dal wait I didn't mean it like that obviously you played your part to
Dal: Thanks
Jack: I was on the driving seat but you were the best assistant I could've wished for
Dal: It's always a pleasure to serve Jack
Jack: Which reminds me i've got another project in mind a new way of keeping out unwanted visitors, interested, so touchy all of a sudden
Dal: Here's another one for you
Jack: Careful with that it's got rain water in it
Ryan: What am I suppose to do with that
Jack: Well I don't know pour it out somewhere, no, oh yeah good call Ryan have a good trip bring back lots of nice water
Paul: What you can't just give up
Amber: What
Paul: What are you deaf
Patsy: He says we just can't give up
Amber: I know, look finding Chloe is more important than finding water I agree but listen Paul we're not giving up when we've stocked up on supplies we'll be better able to search for Chloe okay
Lex: Poor kid
Amber: Who Paul
Lex: Aren't you ashamed of yourself leading them on like that
Amber: How do you mean
Lex: Come of it Amber we're never gonna see Chloe again and you know it look my guess is she's already left the sector probably even the city that's if she hasn't been captured
Amber: How can you be so sure
Lex: We looked everywhere all the places she used to sneak of to she's gone
Amber: Listen Lex you've got your job to do security leave missing persons to me
Lex: You just don't wanna face it she never wanted to be part of this outfit in the first place
Amber: Wonder why
Bray: We're leaving
Amber: Good luck
Lex: Get some food while your out there a spare rib or two wouldn't go a miss
Salene: Bray I'm coming with you
Amber: Salene
Salene: What, those water bottles will be heavy
Amber: I'm sure they can manage
Salene: I can't believe this do I need to get written permission now every time I wanna go outside
Amber: Look lets just talk about this
Salene: Nothing to talk about I volunteered to help get water
Amber: Bray
Bray: I guess I mean another pair of hands
Salene: Thank you
Lex: It'll all end in tears
Chloe: Ow
Tai-San: Forgive me this will reduce the swelling
Chloe: Who are you
Tai-San: My name is Tai-San but please no more questions we must be quiet we're not out of danger yet
Lex: It's all genetic that's what they say
Zandra: It's what who says grownups
Lex: What they used to say from the moment your born you either take the lead or you follow I mean look at Ryan carrying those water bottles for Bray the sad part is he enjoys doing it
Zandra: So
Lex: Well one day and probably pretty soon by the looks of things your gonna want a baby of your own and I'm just saying that's where you should start looking in my genes
Trudy: Have either of you seen Bray
Lex: No not for a while he took Salene and went of in to the woods for some reason
Trudy: He what
Lex: Now what
Trudy: Is it true
Amber: Is what true
Trudy: Bray and Salene
Amber: Trudy they're collecting water
Trudy: Sure, your in on it you planned this didn't you, you and Salene
Amber: I did what
Trudy: Don't deny it your all against me you didn't want me when I first arrived and you still don't want me now
Amber: That is crazy
Trudy: Bray was mine before we ended up in this dump but you couldn't leave us alone could you, you had to break us up
Amber: Me I'm the one who tried to stop her going
Trudy: Oh so you admit she's after him
Amber: Well that's not exactly hard to spot you'd have to be Ryan to miss that one look why come to me anyway I'm admin not marriage guidance
Trudy: Your on her side you always have been
Amber: Look just believe whatever you want Trudy, it's not my problem
Bray: That's about all we can carry thanks Salene it was a good idea you coming
Salene: Don't mention it
Bray: Are you okay
Salene: I didn't really come here to help out at least that was one reason, I needed to talk to you about some things but I guess I'll never be like Zandra I can never be angry with you even if I tried
Bray: That's nice to know
Salene: Bray why are you doing this I thought we had something special between us why do you wanna hurt me
Bray: Well if it's not to much to ask what exactly are you talking about
Salene: You and Trudy what else, don't lie to me that's what's so hurtful when you lie about it you could've let me down gently
Bray: Can we start over with this if you must know I'm not getting on with Trudy she's driving me nuts though it's any of your business
Salene: Well that's even worse
Bray: What
Salene: Sleeping with her when you don't even care about her
Ryan: Bray Loco camp over there they can't be very far away
Bray: Okay we've finished here, lets go
Chloe: It feels better already what did you put on it
Tai-San: Wild herb Hanaka and Comfrey
Chloe: Where to
Tai-San: I was hoping you'd tell me what are you doing here in the woods all alone Chloe
Chloe: It's a long story I had this pet calf Bluebell they wanted to eat her so I brought her here then she ran of I didn't have a chance to say goodbye what about you
Tai-San: My stories not important except that it brought me to you
Chloe: Thank you for saving me
Tai-San: It was written just as it is written that I must follow you
Chloe: Follow me but I'm lost
Tai-San: Often when people say they're lost they're just not listening hard enough
Chloe: Listening to what
Tai-San: They're heart if you had to choose a path which way would you go, no don't look listen you remember the way you've just forgotten that you remember it
Lex: I thought you said all the batteries were dead
Jack: Well nearly all, I had a couple saved encase of a real emergency, okay suppose your a Loco armed to the teeth walking through the sewer trying to break in and it's dark and quiet but your not scared your a Loco but your pulse rate is up just a little bit your palms are beginning to get a bit sweaty
Lex: Get on with it
Jack: The trip wires so fine you don't feel a thing next thing you know your surrounded by wolves, pretty affective huh
Lex: Soon as you get it working let me know
Jack: Doesn't that guy ever praise anybody
Dal: True men of vision are never recognized in there own time Jack
Trudy: What's that
Bray: Water what do you think
Trudy: Exactly what am I suppose to think, you've been collecting water you and your friend
Bray: No
Bray: Well I hope your satisfied everyone's laughing at me stuck here holding the baby while you are of partying how do you think that makes me feel, so was she good was it worth it, where are you going
Bray: I'm not even gonna bother to explain you wouldn't understand anyway
Trudy: Bray don't go
Bray: I just want five minutes peace we'll talk later
Paul: Chloe, Chloe,Chloe
Trudy: What's he saying
Amber: Chloe we were so worried
Salene: What happened
Jack: Are you alright
Amber: Hey what happened to your foot
Chloe: I got chased by the Locos I fell over and broke it
Tai-San: It's not broken only sprained she'll be fine
Chloe: She rescued me if it wasn't for her I'd be a prisoner of the Locos now
Amber: Thank you and welcome
Lex: What's going on here and who is she
Amber: She brought Chloe back to us
Lex: How'd you get in here, Jack didn't you get that alarm fixed up yet, what are you trying to do get us all killed
Amber: You must be starving both of you welcome to the mall
Chloe: Tai-San: this is everyone, everyone this is Tai-San
Tai-San: Thank you
Dal: Weren't you scared when night fell
Chloe: At least I could hide from the Locos but if I'd known the secret I could've found my way home anytime
Patsy: Secret
Chloe: Listening, Tai-San showed my how
Amber: But why did you run away Chloe were you upset about Bluebell
Lex: Yeah well it's all ancient history forget it
Chloe: I took her of to be safe but then she ran of
Amber: You, Lex I thought you said the Locos had taken of with Bluebell
Lex: That's right, they must have let her go again
Amber: Oh that'll be it they'll all have turned vegetarian
Lex: Am I the only one that's noticed we're faced with a serious breach of security here a total stranger walks in to the mall and nobody bats an eyelid nobody questions it well I've got a couple of questions for you Tai-San or whatever you call yourself, who are you? Where'd you come from? And what do you want?
Ryan: That's three questions
Lex: Shut it
Amber: If you've finished, Tai-San is our guest are you gonna show some manners
Lex: Have it your way Amber you usually do I'm gonna go see about making this place secure, Jack, Dal with me
Chloe: I didn't mean to cause so much trouble
Amber: You haven't don't be silly
Patsy: We should have a party to celebrate getting Chloe back
Lex: So how does the trip wire set of the laptop
Jack: That's Dal's area
Dal: Since when don't tell me since you realized you didn't know how to do it
Jack: Well I'm the ideas man technical adviser your chief engineer
Lex: Given each other titles
Jack: Oh is there something wrong with that mister chief of security
Amber: We're gonna have a little party for Chloe, could you organize some music Jack
Jack: Sure Dal can you finish of there please
Lex: A party
Amber: Oh don't start
Lex: With music don't you think this could be what she planned this could be a signal for the rest of her tribe before we know it we could be on the run
Amber: Better fix that alarm then
Lex: You don't know anything about her
Amber: Your right we have to be careful but I'm pretty sure about one thing she's not a Locust or a Demon Dog anyway we could do a lot worse than being over run by a tribe of space style hippies
Lex: I'd like to know how
Salene: Trudy
Trudy: Get out leave me alone
Salene: Listen I did go with Bray to fetch the water well to talk to him I thought, I don't know what I thought
Trudy: You thought you'd take him of me
Salene: Yes maybe I did well I was wrong and I just wanted to say I'm sorry and that I won't interfere anymore okay
Jack: There's something not right about that girl every time you look around she's staring at you, spooky
Dal: Jack remember what you were saying about you being in charge and me being the assistant
Jack: You know I wasn't being serious about that
Dal: No but I was I think you should be the boss take responsibility for everything
Jack: Really oh okay
Dal: Good first thing you can do is go tell Lex we're not sure whether the alarms working
Tai-San: It is a time of great loneliness we all feel the need to belong that's why it's a good thing to be part of a tribe
Zandra: If you met the Demon Dogs you wouldn't think so
Tai-San: But all this will pass in time even a Demon Dog must grow older and wiser
Ryan: If the virus doesn't get them first
Amber: What about you Tai-San do you belong to a tribe
Tai-San: Of sorts but my path is different I've elected to follow my heart wherever it may lead me I cannot stop until I find what I'm seeking
Amber: And what is that
Tai-San: Truth
Lex: I think I'm gonna throw up
Tai-San: So what are you called
Zandra: Called
Tai-San: Your tribe
Chloe: We don't have a name
Amber: We just sort of came together accidentally
Tai-San: There are no accidents in this world
Lex: I've got a name for us, the rats
Bray: No
Lex: Why not we live like them, Mallrats scratching for food
Patsy: I know how about the Dolphins
Bray: No
Salene: No way
Lex: Come on lets be the rats I can be the king rat I got a battle cry that'll strike fear in to the hearts of all our enemies
Jack: It's the alarm it's working
Bray: Go ahead I'm with you
Lex: We know your out there we're not afraid come out and face us
Bray: Bob it's you
Lex: Stupid animal
Amber: Bob what were you doing frightening us like that
Chloe: We thought you were a Loco
Tai-San: You see
Amber: What
Tai-San: The spirit of the tribe spelling hope for the future
Lex: What she on about now
Amber: Lex be quiet go on Tai-San
Tai-San: We've come together for a purpose we are a tribe but we are still lacking something that something is pride
Lex: What's this we are a tribe nobody's invited you to join us
Tai-San: And yet I'm here perhaps that's why I've come to restore your pride in one another by giving you a name, please lets form a circle everyone join hands
Amber: What harm can it do
Lex: All this for a name
Tai-San: It's more than a name it's the future
Lex: Ryan your kidding me not you to
Amber: Lex just grab someone's hand
Lex: I'll join hands on one condition we're called the Mallrats any objections
Jack: Well actually rats are very intelligent creatures highly developed family units
Amber: So we could do worse
Lex I can't believe I'm doing this
Tai-San: Lets all close our eyes and focus for a moment
Trudy: Wait
Amber: That's it we're all here
Tai-San: As of this day all who join hands are bound together as one brothers and sisters to the end
Salene: Bray can I talk to you
Amber: How are you feeling
Trudy: Better thanks
Amber: Listen I'm sorry about what I said
Trudy: No your right it isn't your problem I guess it's just I've always thought of you as leader I suppose that's why I thought you were in on it
Amber: Well that's what I've been talking to Tai-San about maybe we don't need leaders anymore maybe there's hope for us yet
Salene: I just wanted to apologize
Bray: No it's me not you I ought to tell you I know what it looks like but I'm not sleeping with Trudy
Salene: Your not
Bray: I don't want that sort of complication in my life trying to play happy families in a looted shopping mall I mean it's crazy there's to much to be done
Salene: What about Brady
Bray: I'll do my best for my brothers sake but the truth is Salene I'm glad Brady's not mine I don't want the responsibility of trying to raise a baby in a world like this
Salene: Sorry
Bray: What's the matter
Salene: I don't want a baby either all I've ever wanted is to feel I belong somewhere
Bray: It's alright
Trudy: Bray
