Session Zero Heroes - A TTRPG Actual Play Podcast
Speaker A: In the aftermath of the Dino Quest park catastrophe, a, mysterious message found its way to four individuals, each a specialist in their field. This message outlined a dangerous mission of unimaginable reward, which would send each of these agents to the abandoned island overrun with the ancient reptiles for which it got its name. Their goal? Reach the dinoQuest headquarters at the center of the island and safely abscond with the coveted dinosaur DNA from its forsaken laboratory. As the echoes of this journey reverberates through our intrepid team, one fact remains true. We are all about to take our first steps onto Dino island. All right, everybody, welcome to the first episode of our escape from Dino island. One shot. joining me today, we have Nate, who's playing the kid. We have Aaron, who's playing the soldier. We have Cameron, who's playing the doctor. And we have Michaela, who is playing the paleontologist. If you did not listen to our episode zero, please go check that out, because they discuss who they are and what their character does, and then you also get a little bit of an introduction to the story. But with that being said, I am going to go into the official written, version of the intro. So, several years ago, news got out that a group of scientists had managed to bring back the ancient reptilian monsters, commonly known as dinosaurs, from their extinctive state. Shortly after, it was announced that construction had begun on a theme park centered around the same creatures. Meant to be a safari like place of excitement, fun, and even research, the park would be situated on the island of Port DiNozzo and feature a resort, water park, and a variety of vacation activities that spanned across the entire island. A few years later, the park was allegedly finished. The island hosted a soft opening, inviting a variety of celebrities, high ranking society members, and hyper wealthy individuals to come to the island and experience firsthand the incredible creation they had titled Dino quest. Rumors vary on what exactly happened during this soft opening, but what is agreed on is that everything went to crap. An announcement went out that the park and any further development had been shut down, and the controlling government was not allowing anyone onto the island. That was two weeks ago. Since that day, rumors and opinions have flooded the media and every online forum. Everything from Dino escapes to aliens were free game. As far as ideas on what went down on the island, many of the celebrities and wealthy individuals that went during the soft opening are supposedly still trapped there with no current expectations of rescue. The whole world is in chaos, as everyone wants to know what happened on Dino island shortly after the Dino Quest catastrophe. You received a message you, the players, from an unidentified individual requesting your help. As a leading figure within your field, you were qualified for a special mission. This figure needed fulfilled. Go to Port Dinozo, travel to the Dino quest headquarters, and steal the dinosaur DNA from the lab there. If you complete this mission, you'll. You'll be made wealthy beyond your wildest dreams. Plus, you'll get some closure on what happened at DinoQuest and get to see living dinosaurs, something no human has laid eyes on for millions of years. To get you past security and onto the island, your benefactor has used their connections to make a deal with the local government, disguising you as a documentary film crew doing a story on the island and what was accomplished there. While having prior review on everything you record and the final cut. To ensure that their narrative is maintained and hopefully hush the public on their talk about the island, the local military has sent a general familiar with the island to guide and police you during this time on the island. Admiral Asman, who has already shown himself to be, for lack of better words, a hard ass, unwilling to put up with any insubordination. He has a radio which he's expected to use twice a day to contact a mainland and let them know everything is okay. If he were unable to contact him, you'd be considered in violation of the no entry ordinance and be deemed hostile. We open on the scene of the U boat that you are all on as it reaches the sandy edges of the island, your heart filled with excitement because things have gone well so far. The thought of the riches awaiting your account when you return home floods the imagination with all sorts of lavish vacations and high end living possibilities. Your heart flutters as you hop out of the boat and your boots hit the sand below. You have taken your first steps on Dino island. All right, everybody, so welcome to Dino island. Welcome to Dino Quest port, DiNozzo. Those are pretty much all the names that people have kind of come up with for it. out of curiosity, as you guys are kind of taking these first steps. First of all, I want to talk about what position you are pretending to be in for this film. Documentary crew.
Aaron: I don't know how I would hide my weapons.
Speaker A: You've got, like, fancy cases. Kind of like what?
Aaron: I had my camera.
Cameron: You're gonna inside the camera.
Speaker A: I like that. All right, so we'll put you on camera, man. All right, so we got camera operator, other options. We've got the director host. We got a boom mic operator. We got the lighting guy. We got the director's assistant. the fact that you're a kid is gonna be kind of interesting, Nate. But, hey, they're gonna say that you probably are interning. You're a young film professional. Anyone have any other preferences as far as positions? Anyone want anything in particular?
Cameron: I can have the boom mic, but it's not out. It's in its case here, but it's just my first aid kit disguised to.
Speaker A: Look like a boom Mike case. Okay. All right, sounds good. who wants to be director? Ho. I feel like, yeah, fit really well for that as the paleontologist, it kind of makes sense. All right, kid, what do you want to take on? Director? Assistant? Lightning?
Cameron: I'm just here to be the intern. I'm the Gopher. Awesome.
Speaker A: Do, you guys have a name for your film company?
Cameron: Totally real film company.
Speaker A: Totally real film company. All right, so you guys are the totally allegedly the phony. Totally real film company.
Cameron: We didn't say phony. It was saying phony.
Aaron: I'll put words in our mouth.
Speaker A: Oh, sorry. Sorry. You're right. You're right. okay, and then each one of you, I'm going to ask you a rumor question. So I've got four different rumor questions. and basically, this is going to be something related to the island that's kind of going to come into play here later. So, first of all, I'll start with Nate, who's playing the kid. as an avid, like, TikTok, social media kid, I imagine you've heard reports that a celebrity managed to convince government officials to look the other way so they could get a tour of the island, but has since gone missing. Who is this celebrity, and do you believe that they're still alive? Like a real celebrity? Oh, no, just whatever you want. It could be a parody on a real celebrity. I guess it could be a real.
Aaron: Celebrity off the top of our heads.
Speaker A: Yeah.
Cameron: It'S like my favorite wrestler and actor. The rack.
Speaker A: The rack. Awesome.
Cameron: Is he big dino fan or something? He wants to punch some TikTok. Told me he wanted a video of him wrestling dinosaur. Oh, that's good.
Speaker A: I'm gonna go down to the island, and I'm gonna wrestle myself. Raptor. And you guys are gonna see it firsthand. That's what I'm gonna go with.
Speaker D: Do you think he's still alive?
Cameron: Of course. He's the rat. He's the rat.
Speaker A: Nobody takes down the rack. Okay, awesome.
Cameron: A ten year old kid on watching TikToks.
Speaker A: Of course.
Cameron: I think my favorite. Heck, yeah.
Speaker A: I love it. I love it. That's fantastic. Okay, Aaron, as the soldier, I have one for you.
Aaron: I can come up with something.
Speaker A: Okay. Yeah. Okay. So when the park first opened, there was a rumor growing around that it doubled as an intense hunting experience for the rich and famous to hunt the next level of game. Guys that have been hunting lions and elephants and, you know, kind of questionable, you know, stuff like that. And so, of course, they heard dinosaurs. Well, I've never shot myself a dinosaur before. I could use a big old T. Rex head hanging over my mantle in my big, fancy mansion. Whatever the case, when the park faltered and everything went to crap, several public figures of these, you know, rich and famous, seemingly disappeared, increasing belief in the conspiracy. Who have you heard that went missing on the island? And do you believe that they are still alive? It's kind of a similar question.
Aaron: Well, I heard Jimmy Fallon was out there hunting dinos, but I doubt he's.
Cameron: Still alive at this moment. He's still alive.
Speaker A: Jimmy Fallon. All right. I don't know.
Aaron: It'll be very surprising.
Speaker A: Let's see if I get a good Jimmy Fallon impersonation. If he shows up, turns out to not be dead.
Cameron: Hey, guys, just a lot of laughing. Special guest star, Jimmy Fallon.
Speaker A: Jimmy Fallon. All right, let me call him up real quick.
Speaker D: The ratings are going to go up.
Speaker A: fly down to south Sioux city real quick. All right, perfect. Okay. Jumping over to Cameron with the doctor. All right, so this is going to be interesting. So a subsect of PETA, the well known animal rights organization, calling themselves pet cop, which stands for people, for the ethical treatment of creatures originating prehistorically, have supposedly gotten onto the island and set up camp to ensure that the government and others don't harm the beasts on the island in any way. What have you heard about this group of hippies and what are they doing? Oh, and what do you think they're doing on the island? How do you feel about their whole.
Cameron: Cause I think, they're. They're wasting their time.
Speaker A: Okay.
Cameron: They could be utilizing their resources a much better ways.
Speaker A: Sure.
Cameron: like going straight for the. You know, they should be, I'm blanking on the word. Not rioting, but, like, protesting in front of the main place of the thing. Sure. Looking for dinosaurs and trying to catch them or whatnot. Should they just go stand somewhere and just protest, you know? Okay, so you good use of their time, especially in chairs.
Speaker A: So you believe that they're trying to, like, catch the dinosaur and, like, get.
Cameron: I believe they're trying to catch the dinosaurs and, like, steal them.
Speaker A: Okay.
Cameron: But I'm like, that's a waste of time, because chasing after dinosaurs, they're quick.
Speaker A: They are quick.
Cameron: So it's a lot. It's a lot easier to sit in front of a place and just hold.
Speaker A: A sign and just be angry.
Cameron: Yeah, that's easy.
Speaker A: Oh, okay. So a little bit of your laziness as a, character kind of coming out.
Cameron: Exactly. They're wasting good energy.
Speaker A: Sure. Okay. All right. Sounds good. And then finally, Mikayla, who's playing the doctor, here's yours.
Cameron: Or.
Speaker A: Sorry, you're playing the paleontologist. My bad. so park documents were leaked online by an alleged ex employee before being quickly taken down by the government. Although the documents have been labeled as quote unquote phony, rumors claim that the island was doing additional genetic studies and developing other creatures or creature creations. Which include what? Monstrosity? Maybe it's a mix of dino DNA with something else. Maybe it's just some monster altogether that when they figured out they could play with Dino DNA, they said, well, what else can we make? You're doing great. I can do that. I can do that. I'm knowledgeable enough to do Pokemon. Dude, if they made Pokemon real, and then they made a whole theme park centered around it, I literally shot fire.
Aaron: What happens when Dinos start to get stale? Yeah, you gotta go next one.
Speaker D: Right, right.
Speaker A: Maybe they were developing Dino, balls.
Cameron: But anyway.
Speaker A: Sorry.
Cameron: I'm sure they were.
Speaker A: Yes, but capture devices, you could go out and instead of killing the dino. But then what? You're gonna take them home and then you're gonna what? Unleash your T rex on the city?
Cameron: That's true. That's true.
Speaker A: That's right up the kids alley on the school bully.
Cameron: Yeah. I'll never be alone again with you.
Speaker A: Awesome. All right, sounds good. So that takes care of all the rumors. We'll see how those kind of pop out along the way. Anyways, jumping to back to where we were. So you've all just hopped off this U boat. You're on the island. Officially, you have stepped into the sandy beaches. Right. in the distance, you can kind of see sort of a cluster of jungle trees. And as you guys are kind of starting to unload, something happens, something really exciting. You get your first sighting of dinosaurs as a small group of herbivores esque, just, like, a small herd of these dinosaurs. I don't know if I even came up with, like, what they. Yeah, exactly. Come stepping out from the forest. let's call them, the iguanodons. They're iguanodons. A small family of iguanodons steps out from the forest and just kind of starts making their way across the beaches. And you have officially seen real life living dinosaurs right in front of your eyes. What are you thinking? What's going through you guys minds?
Aaron: Money.
Cameron: I'm already running towards the dinosaurs, dude.
Speaker A: What about the others? you see this child? Just start running toward the child that's with you just starts running towards these dinosaurs.
Speaker D: Let's go film this.
Speaker A: You start taking the camera out of its case.
Cameron: You're like, oh, this is perfect.
Aaron: I already have the camera.
Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, the camera out and everything. admiral Aspen's like, hey, stop right there. Don't touch the dinosaurs. Do not get close to the dinosaurs. Those are dangerous creatures.
Cameron: I just want to look at them.
Speaker D: They literally eat plants. It's fine.
Speaker A: You don't need to worry about these dinosaurs. And, so he kind of comes running up just to make sure that you're not going to get too close. But he just stands there with you as you watch. And sure enough, yeah, they're just very peaceful creatures. They walk by, maybe they stop kind of on the edge of the, the forest and they eat some plants. And you watch as this happens and you guys get the camera and the other equipment out and you start filming this, which is allowed. You're allowed to. The people know that the dinosaurs are alive and have been spawned on this island. So it's not a secret. So that. Yeah, that's, I mean, basic gist of what happens there. You guys are able to, get some cool footage of your first dinosaurs. But, you know that your secret objective that was given to you, not your individual ones, but as a group, your secret objective is to get to the headquarters, find DNA and steal it, and then leave the island. So what is your guys plan going forward?
Cameron: Hey, ass man.
Speaker A: What do you want?
Cameron: You hold this for me. And I just hand him my, my, boom. mic box. Okay, thanks. And I just start walking off.
Speaker A: Wait a minute.
Cameron: Hey, where's the, the headquarters?
Speaker A: Oh, yes, we should be, we should start there. Well, yes, we, we can head there, certainly. it's about a day's travel without a vehicle. so let's. Yeah, we can start heading in that direction. Please keep a close perimeter. don't forget that I'm in charge here. Stay close to me. I'll keep you guys safe. There are dinosaurs that are on the loose, as you can see from the iguanodon here. So, you know, be cautious.
Cameron: Sir. Why didn't we bring a vehicle?
Speaker A: Well, we brought a U boat, and it's really hard to get anything, a, vehicle of any kind.
Cameron: Why did you bring a bigger boat? I thought you were an admiral.
Speaker A: look, there's only so many resources that have been afforded to your team. This is on you guys, not on me.
Cameron: So they'll send an admiral, but not a jeep?
Speaker A: All right, enough of this attitude. It's kids like you that made me want to join the army.
Speaker D: I don't know what that is.
Cameron: I thought you were in the navy. Just the military as a whole.
Speaker A: All right, fantastic. So you guys start to head off into the forest, and as you guys are kind of making your way into the forest, as you guys start making your way into the forest, you do find a clearing. Some of the trees in this area have kind of looked like they've been snapped and fallen over. And in the center of this small clearing, you find the remains of a dead triceratops. In the middle of the. Well, in the middle of the clearing, you find yourself a bit amazed at the opportunity to maybe scavenge some dinosaur bones, potentially, maybe to show a certain rival in your paleontology.
Speaker D: Yeah, sure.
Speaker A: Potentially. Totally up to you. But just kind of pitching that as an opportunity.
Speaker D: Yeah, we'll get. Thanks.
Speaker A: Okay. All right, sounds good. Do a scavenge check. That is your safety move. It'll be on your basic moves sheet there. You are gonna be rolling with eight. All right. So that is a soft success. So on a seven to nine, you will find something handy, but you make a lot of noise in the process.
Speaker D: You can pretend no dinosaurs heard if you want.
Speaker A: So, you kind of, like, climb into this carcass of this dead dinosaur. Yeah. Get your own tauntaun. Get your own triceratops. Yes. You climb into the carcass. The rest of you guys are watching. I'm sure the camera is probably fixated. Admiral Asman is kind of standing there, like, looking at this box, unsure if he's supposed to be holding. You said audio you might guide.
Cameron: You're doing a great job, admiral.
Speaker A: He's. I haven't even opened it yet.
Cameron: Exactly.
Speaker A: Do you want me m to do. I need to do something here.
Aaron: Ah.
Speaker A: Oh, okay. This is no audio. All right, sounds good. So cameras rolling. As you climb into this dino. are you saying anything? Since you're kind of the host, per se? as you climb into this dinosaur.
Speaker D: What dinosaur was it?
Speaker A: triceratops. Oh, with the horns?
Speaker D: Yeah. I was thinking you said something.
Speaker A: Oh, no, no, you're good.
Speaker D: no. Not gonna say nothing.
Speaker A: Oh, okay. All right, so the camera follows you. As you climb in, you start kind of picking through the carcass. You've got maybe some gloves on. You find a couple of good bones on the ground. but suddenly you start to hear all of you in the distance. You start to hear heavy footsteps that start to shake the ground around you and rattle the bones on the carcass. You could stick around to get some more bones or choose something else.
Cameron: It's hilarious. Who's taking my dino bones?
Speaker D: I am going to jump up.
Speaker A: Okay.
Speaker D: Just because I'm excited to see potentially another dinosaur.
Speaker A: Okay.
Speaker D: So I'm gonna. I don't know, maybe I hit my head on some of the dino in the dinosaur.
Speaker A: All right, sounds good. But covered in. Yeah. So you jump up. You're excited to see this dinosaur. But what about the rest of you guys? As you guys start to hear these.
Aaron: Is there a giant bush that I can hop?
Speaker D: Sure.
Cameron: Yeah, you can take that.
Speaker A: I believe that's an action here. Yep. So you can definitely choose to hide.
Cameron: Yeah.
Speaker A: Roll me a, plus. Clever.
Aaron: So do I have two d six? Two d six?
Speaker A: Yep.
Aaron: I need one more. Someone can 1010.
Speaker A: All right, so on a ten plus, you succeed. I mean, you are well hidden as you. You and your cameras just leap into a nearby bush. I like to think that you poke.
Cameron: The camera, the scope. I do have a real, real question. This camera is hiding his rifle. Is it a working camera or have you just been saying he's recording stuff this whole time that's never been recorded?
Aaron: Oh, it's got like, a little gopro on it. Don't you worry.
Cameron: Is this dude just tracking a child with a rifle?
Speaker D: Don't worry, the safety's on.
Speaker A: I have a working gun in here. Yeah, there's a camera attached to it.
Cameron: But I mean, right there. Jimmy. That's ok. You look great.
Speaker A: Look at the flowers, Jimmy.
Cameron: Oh, no.
Speaker D: You could have the safety on. Just flip the switch to turn it off, you know.
Cameron: All times. There is no safety here.
Aaron: Oh, no, I tripped.
Speaker A: doctor, what are you doing? As you hear, feel these foot against a tree.
Cameron: Having a major cramp in the recording booth. what I would do is I would walk over to, the paleontologist, Mackenzie, after she hopped out of this thing. And I'm going to hand her a single baby wipe and be like, yeah, you. Yeah, clean. Clean yourself up.
Speaker D: I'm not even paying attention.
Cameron: I'm just looking around your head.
Speaker D: Okay.
Speaker A: and then. Kid, what are you. What are you doing? As you feel these giant footsteps, I.
Cameron: Feel like you guys don't understand the gravity, so I'm going to, I believe, look over here would be an appropriate, move.
Speaker A: or.
Cameron: No, I. Take my hand. I'm trying to get you guys to get the heck out and get hidden. Oh, okay. You're just. Standing in the middle of a corpse is something that, you know. I'm a dinosaur, kid, this is smarter than the. We need to go higher.
Speaker D: I just didn't.
Speaker A: Aw.
Cameron: Okay, we need to get away from here now.
Speaker A: I'm gonna have you roll. So it says to roll with an applicable thing. I think maybe clever would probably be the closest thing here.
Cameron: Sounds good. That's not good. That's a five oh. A five oh, wait. With the kid thing, Do I just succeed? Oh.
Speaker D: I mean, I would say, like, hey, come with me. I'm scared.
Speaker A: Yeah, sure, sure.
Cameron: Yeah, I guess that's my. As the kid, you can generally do the kind of kid like, kid runs up to you. Can we go away? I'm scared. Right.
Speaker A: No, I think you're right. I think you're right. are you running up to someone particular? Yes.
Cameron: Because you're still, like, in the dinosaur. Right? Okay.
Speaker A: So you're running up to the village.
Speaker D: He's like, you idiot. You're gonna get eaten.
Speaker A: You see that this child is really scared and, you know, about to wet himself. And there's a part you didn't say that.
Speaker D: I'm not really paying attention to him. However, I'll allow him to take my hand. I'll kind of stumble along with him as I'm trying to search for where this noise is coming from.
Speaker A: Sounds good. So he pulled. I would probably say that you maybe, like, pull her behind a tree, at the very least to try to, like, get out of right in the open.
Speaker A: Admiral Asmund kind of follows your guys's lead. He also just jumps into a bush as well. you can see that he has a bit of a look of fear on his face. He's. He's seen things on this island for sure, so.
Cameron: Really glad military professionals have just abandoned and then.
Speaker D: Nice covered bush to shoot his shot. Yes.
Speaker A: And then where? Sorry, where was the doctor?
Cameron: The doctor. I was kind of falling everyone. Oh, okay.
Speaker D: He put a baby wipe on my head, so I assume.
Cameron: I gotta assume you were both. Yeah, I was. I put a baby wipe on her, and I see them just kind of running off, and I'm like, okay, I guess because you were, like, inside the thing.
Speaker A: So as you. Just as you guys kind of clamber behind the trees, all of a sudden, this massive, hulking allosaur, which is sort of like a t. Rex, very similar, comes stomping out through the trees, and it kind of looks around, it sniffs a couple times. It nudges this, corpse of this dead triceratops that you wonder if maybe it was the one feeding on it shortly before. But the key thing here is that as you guys watch, as it kind of does this and eventually walks away, this thing is massive. This thing is big enough to eat you in one bite. In reference to the kid, maybe half.
Cameron: Maybe half.
Speaker D: It just swallows.
Speaker A: And the reality of the possible dangers as you guys make your way across this island kind of hits home at this point. There are giant monsters on this island that could and would eat you. So.
Skylar: Hey, everyone.

Speaker A: As you guys watch, as it walks away, you all take it.
Speaker D: Didn't get you, right, right.
Speaker A: You all take a deep sigh of relief as it leaves and disappears into the tree or the forests. You guys just have that kind of fear because before you saw dinosaurs and you were excited, right? But now you kind of get that slam of the reality of the situation, and now you have kind of that conflicting. This is exciting, but it's also dangerous. So just. Just a little kind of like lead up into things as you guys kind of start to start to come out from bushes and behind trees and so on and so forth.
Cameron: So, ass man.
Speaker A: Yeah.
Cameron: You said you've made, you've traveled on this island a bunch in the past, right?
Speaker A: I did. When, all the dinosaurs were in, you know, cages and habitats and eggs.
Cameron: And when you travel this island, did you take a car? Yeah. Okay, sure.
Speaker A: There's there were jeeps all over the place.
Cameron: How many times have you walked it?
Speaker A: it wasn't for a long distance.
Cameron: So you thought it was the best idea to have us walk to the headquarters? Have you not done that before?
Speaker A: no. I mean, I've never taken a direct. Just walk from beach to headquarters. This is gonna be fun.
Speaker D: You've never taken a direct walk?
Speaker A: No.
Speaker D: Why?
Speaker A: Cause we had jeeps.
Aaron: I mean, he said there's jeeps lying around. We might get lucky enough to find a working one around. I don't know.
Speaker D: Well, you'd think that he would know if he's been around.
Cameron: Did you just think we'd find a car?
Speaker A: You know, if I'm being completely honest with you guys, I kind of did hope that we would just find a jeep.
Speaker D: Well, like, have you seen any on your jeep? Direct drive to the headquarters.
Speaker A: I was sitting in one.
Aaron: That's when the island was working.
Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, it was when things were, like, in function or leading up to in function.
Speaker D: What do you know where, like, they house some dupes, usually any of.
Speaker A: Oh, yeah, I do have a map. He turned, he opens up a map, and on the map, just for you.
Cameron: Guys, this is where you landed, right.
Speaker A: Here in this little peninsula that's over in the bottom corner. If you are, interested in escape from Dino island, you can find it online. but the map is actually included as part of the package that you get. So you guys are down here at this peninsula, the headquarters, the kind of main section of Dino Quest is up, right? Pretty much dead center of the map, just at the base of the volcano. in between, he mentions foreshadowing.
Cameron: Why did they build on a volcano?
Speaker A: Hot springs.
Cameron: Yeah, big hot springs.
Speaker A: They wanted to, you know, put kind of a spa set up over there. But anyways, yeah, as far as jeeps go, I mean, if we're gonna find any working, running jeeps, best bet, there's an electricity, slash radio tower over kind of not too far from here. If we can get there, I have a few.
Speaker D: Like, what about the amusement park?
Cameron: Oh, that sounds.
Speaker A: If you really want to go to the amusement park, I guess we could, but it's kind of out of the way. I'm just thinking, like, this is on the way. Get a jeep and then make it to the headquarters before nightfall.
Cameron: I kind of wouldn't mind going to an amusement park. That sounds sick.
Speaker A: Okay, well, as fun as it sounds, there's not really.
Cameron: You sound, like, malfunctioning. You brought to an amusement park.
Speaker D: This is the reason why he's here as man.
Speaker A: Yeah.
Aaron: Is there still power on the island at all?
Speaker A: I think you could. So,
Cameron: Sick.
Speaker A: Yeah, I think it's possible to re spark some things. So there's multiple different power stations on the island. They power kind of different regions. Right. So if you go to the docks, there's power there. You gotta re turn that on. But that would spark up everything in the dock area. You know, it's like all. It's on localized grids, basically. Right. So if we get to this station, this one mostly m just powers kind of the mid island. it kind of shoots a little bit of electricity towards the headquarters. But otherwise, it's mostly just for the radio tower because we have to make sure that we keep those at a, reasonable proximity to ensure communication throughout the island. So, yeah, if we get there, we can turn some electricity.
Cameron: Have you. Have you gotten any communications from there, from the island, from the communication center?
Speaker A: not recently. Not recently. In fact, that was a part of why things kind of went wrong on that opening day. Was it? Seemed like somebody cut the communication at a few of the key spots.
Cameron: Were you there?
Speaker A: I was off shore. I was in a boat, kind of just maintaining. Yeah.
Aaron: It was Jimmy Fallon.
Speaker A: He said, oh, man, what happens if I, you know, cut these cords? That's gonna be my Jimmy Fallon, I.
Cameron: Guess that's a great.
Speaker A: But, yeah, I mean, if we follow. He joined Petcock.
Cameron: He was a member of Petcock.
Aaron: He went to hunt Dinos instead. He created sabotage on the island.
Speaker A: He said, cut some wires at the connection. Just started making a song like the roots were there.
Cameron: How about this for an idea? Just thinking out loud, you know, what if we went. Got a car at this radio station and then went straight to the amusement park?
Aaron: There might be a car at the amusement park.
Speaker A: All right, well, as a documentary, bumper.
Aaron: Cars, golf cart, maybe. Golf course. There was a golf course.
Speaker D: You think that they'd have, like.
Speaker A: That's actually a bit north of the island.
Speaker D: Utility vehicle.
Speaker A: What? The golf course.
Speaker D: They'd have, like, utility vehicles at the amusement park?
Speaker A: Yeah, probably. I mean, yeah.
Aaron: I mean, in a standpoint, we could turn the power on in the amusement.
Speaker D: Park at the very least.
Aaron: Sort of sound, distraction. Yeah, so we can head to the.
Cameron: I like it.
Speaker A: Yeah, that's kind of what I was thinking too.
Cameron: I.
Speaker D: Just go walking in that direction.
Speaker A: Oh, okay. Sounds good. You guys are walking to the radio station to hopefully find it.
Speaker D: No, you're going straight to the dino amusement park.
Aaron: I have else, would we? I have a follow up question.
Speaker A: Sure.
Aaron: The dino amusement park, is that where the cages were for all the animals, or was that just roller coasters and stuff?
Speaker A: Oh, it's like roller coasters and stuff. So the cages and the kind of habitats for the dinosaurs. And as you guys are walking, you actually see, like, there's some, like, legitimate metal wire gates and things, like that giant zoo. Yeah, it's like a big zoo. Yeah, exactly. So, like, they were kind of in habitat spread across the island. So if you were doing the full tour, I mean, it would take you like a whole day.
Aaron: So what do you know offhand what dinos were closest to the amusement park lock, though?
Speaker A: sure. Some of the big stuff.
Cameron: Some of the big, scarier stuff. Because it sounds like you're trying to.
Speaker D: It makes the roller coasters more thrilling.
Aaron: It's kind of sounding.
Speaker A: I mean, does it even matter anymore? I mean, look at this. And as you guys are walking past one of the gates, I mean, it has just deteriorated, very similar to Jurassic park. You know, once the electricity kind of started going out, there wasn't anything keeping the dinosaurs from just kind of pushing through the fence. There's no, like, electrical fence. And so they just broke it down, and now they're kind of free roaming.
Speaker D: I mean, it does kind of mean something. Cause this is their home. They probably had nests. Like, they're not gonna wander off too far. It's only been two weeks.
Speaker A: That's a good point. That is a good point. We all saw as a paleontologist. That was very good.
Cameron: Thank you.
Aaron: You also have to consider that there might still be a bunch of civilians over in the amusement park just because that was where I'm guessing a lot of people were stationed.
Cameron: I don't want to go to the basement park anymore.
Speaker D: This will make for a great documentary.
Aaron: That's kind of cool.
Speaker D: We'll get all of the celebrities.
Cameron: It's like being on an airplane. They're like, hey, is there a doctor here? And then they're all going to think, I'm going to help them. All these injured people at the amusement park. I don't want to go there anymore. Actually. Let's go.
Speaker D: Just take off your lab coat if you don't want to be that kind of a doctor. Jeez.
Cameron: Comfy?
Aaron: I can respect that.
Cameron: I'm a little cold.
Aaron: Well, I was more thinking on the matter of, live bait. Oh, what?
Speaker D: You want to use the celebrities as live bait?
Speaker A: I'm not sure I can agree with the idea of feeding human beings to dinosaurs. For this documentary you guys are putting together.
Aaron: You're right.
Speaker A: Just to clear.
Aaron: Sorry, I let my inner voice get out.
Speaker A: You keep that pin up from now on. All right, so you guys start heading kind of around the coast towards dino quest amusement park. And it is not super far. I'd say maybe like an hour to 2 hours of walking. And you can see in the distance there's sort of a gate that goes around it. but otherwise you see kind of this very big amusement park. You see roller coasters, there's, Ferris wheel, there's, you know, just everything that you would kind of.
Cameron: We hear the sounds of people screaming, and having lots of fun.
Speaker A: Screaming.
Aaron: Lots of fun and very different.
Speaker A: But you do arrive to the front gates of the Dino quest amusement park and there's nobody there to stop you and get tickets. Cause there's nobody there, so.
Aaron: Well, you guys wanna get tickets?
Speaker D: Let's just walk in.
Cameron: I mean, you're already us just trying to keep up with jet. Oh boy. Oh boy. That's why they call me the jet.
Speaker A: what are you gunning it for? What ride are you going for?
Cameron: What do I see? I'm through the ticket booth and I'm running into the main area concords. What am I seeing?
Speaker A: So right off the bat, you've got your carousel. Yeah. T Rex just standing there. Chompsy, right? No, carousel dead center. there's kind of some like toy shop. You know, they keep all kind of like, before you leave, you can get all your, What's the word I'm looking for here? The goodies, you know, gift shop. The gift shop. Thank you. Yes.
Cameron: I grab a velociraptor, squish them all. Oh, absolutely.
Speaker A: Absolutely.
Aaron: It's adorable.
Speaker A: Yes, he does. So you got this velociraptor. Did you say the squishmallow or squish malo?
Cameron: Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, I actually put it in my backpack with just a head popping. It's adorable.
Speaker A: That's awesome.
Speaker D: I'm gonna look at. I'm sure they have some kind of like fossils and dinosaur teeth or something.
Cameron: Oh, wait, I guess.
Speaker A: Are the lights on?
Cameron: Is everything like.
Speaker A: No. Yeah, nothing's running. I mean, it's daylight, so it's not like it's dark or anything. But yeah, there's. I mean, nothing's running currently, so there's that.
Cameron: Okay, so even if I wanted to jump onto a roller coaster, it's like, whee, right?
Speaker A: Wee.
Cameron: Machine.
Speaker A: Oh, yeah, dude.
Cameron: All things crusty, bro.
Speaker A: It's just liquid at this point.
Cameron: Liquid slurpee.
Speaker A: And obviously you'll have to manually. Sugar, you won't be able to pull the little. Well, you could probably pull the. I think that would work at the very least. It's just, it's not spinning.
Aaron: And just like that icky liliquid that they haven't turned on.
Cameron: Probably fermenting by now. I'll grab some dino chips.
Speaker A: Okay. Yeah, those are bagged.
Cameron: Sure. Munching.
Speaker A: They're shaped like various dinosaurs.
Aaron: Awesome.
Speaker A: Yep. Absolutely.
Speaker D: are they cheesy?
Cameron: What?
Speaker A: Cheesy or ranch? Yeah. What flavor are malt and vinegar?
Speaker D: Oh, jeez.
Cameron: That's a typical doctor.
Speaker A: Typical doctor chip. fantastic. as you guys are kind of like, kind of running around, Admiral Aspen's like, aren't we supposed to be shooting this?
Aaron: Oh, I am.
Speaker A: Oh, okay.
Speaker D: Yeah.
Speaker A: He says, well, okay. All right, all right. Give me a second here. And you see, as you guys kind of make your way through the park, see a few more of the rides, there's eventually come to a really, small kind of almost like a shed space. And he opens up the front door and there's an electricity panel in there. And he says, I don't know if there's anything still running here, but I suppose it would make for, some good footage for you guys to show what was included in the park. Let's see what happens. He pulls a big old lever in there. Sure enough, everything starts to spark up and music begins playing off of some of the rides. The carousel starts to spin, the ferris wheel starts to spin. and you hear all sorts of just kind of carnival, classic carnival noises.
Cameron: Have we seen any evidence of other people?
Speaker A: well, it's funny you say that because as you kind, of start to gear up to go over to one of the rides, all of a sudden, two individuals wearing sort of very makeshift clothing, probably stuff that was from the gift shop. So like my other kid is a raptor or something like that, you know. but it's all like kind of torn up and stuff like that. Two individuals leap out from one of the, probably one of the games. and, they are both holding some like makeshift spears that are made out of like a piece of glass and like a stick or some kind of bottle rocket. Yeah, it's like dead rising. and they both like come ah, up to you guys and they're like, what?
Speaker F: Who are you all and what are you doing here?
Speaker A: There's a man and a woman. And as you guys are staring at them, you suddenly recognize them. these are celebrities. These are people that you've probably seen on tv. Maybe. Possibly. One of them is Thad Thunderjaw. He's a washed up action movie star with a penchant for exaggerated bravado. Said that. Funny bravado and a dwindling fan base. And then the other one is Tiffany Terracotta. She's a former pop sensation turned reality tv has been. Tiffany is desperate to reclaim her fame and fortune by any means. I don't know why I'm telling you. Well, you probably would have gotten horrified.
Speaker D: She sees that. Cameron starts.
Speaker A: She's like, actually, I think you're right. I think. I think they both see the camera.
Speaker F: Whoa. No way. We actually managed to catch the camera crew.
Aaron: Of course, it's the has.
Speaker A: And they lower their weapons and they're.
Speaker F: Like, you guys must be here for the one on one interviews. The behind the scenes ones where we talk about the other players. that's why you guys are here, right?
Speaker D: Players? What are you talking about? Dissidents of what?
Speaker F: What are you talking about? We're a part of this whole survivor Dino island show.
Cameron: That's what we're here for, right?
Speaker D: Like Dino survivor?
Speaker F: Yeah, survivor, Jurassic edition. Dinosaur edition, whatever you're calling it, you're from the film crew, right?
Aaron: So let me get this straight. You think with all the people here, that the dino attacks, that everyone that died died?
Speaker F: Nobody has died.
Aaron: Just con. We're. We're just contestants?
Speaker G: Yeah, nobody dies. They're just voted off. We're all just contestants. What are you talking about?
Cameron: Yeah, they got. They got. They got voted off. Haven't you seen survivor?
Aaron: It's an animatronic dino that just picks them up and shoots. Shoots him off the island. Like total drama island.
Cameron: I'd watch that.
Speaker G: Oh, my gosh. I get it. This is part of the interview right now. Okay, so where do you want us to sit? Or do you want us to stand for this?
Speaker D: What do you mean? You're supposed to pretend it's real. You've seen people be eaten by dinosaurs and be like, oh, that's fake.
Speaker G: Oh, yeah, sure. They got eaten.
Aaron: The camera's getting a little clicky.
Speaker G: Seriously, though, let's get these interviews going. Where do you want us? Let's go.
Cameron: is that thad thunderjaw? My dad said he used to be good. Yeah, he was.
Speaker F: excuse me, kid. I am still good. Best action star that ever lived. Now, where do you want us for these interviews, we got a challenge to complete.
Speaker D: like, I don't know. Probably back there in the corner.
Speaker F: Oh, all right.
Speaker A: All right.
Speaker F: So. So back over here further. Do you want us one at a time? I assume further back.
Cameron: Further in the shadows, please.
Speaker F: Isn't that gonna affect the lighting, or are we going for sort of a silhouette sort of shot?
Cameron: Perfect. Okay, guys, so I was thinking that roller coaster looked real nice right now.
Speaker D: Can we have, like, a hot wheel situation where we go on the roller coaster and just.
Cameron: Say roller coaster? And I'm already moving that way.
Aaron: Have you seen any other survivors?
Cameron: Oh, is it you're. Yeah.
Speaker A: All right, so you turn to Tiffany terracotta. She kind of, like, sits on a, bench or something like that.
Aaron: She starts singing. I, swear to God, I don't.
Speaker A: Plan on doing that. All right, so you're talking to her.
Cameron: What are you asking her?
Aaron: I'm just wondering if, father, if she knows if there's any other survivors on the island.
Speaker G: Well, obviously there's plenty of other survivors. Who do you think we're competing against?
Aaron: Are there any more in the amusement. Amusement park that we don't know of?
Speaker G: Oh, absolutely not. The amusement park is our territory. We won it last week during the challenge.
Cameron: What was the challenge?
Speaker G: we had to swing across those trees. Tarzan stout, trying to hold on for dear life. I've been doing a lot of work on my deltoids lately, and it's a good thing I did because I really had to carry my team.
Aaron: This one who's giving you these challenges?
Speaker G: Yeah, it's the new name of the game. Participants submitted challenges originally. When this whole thing started, we were expecting Jeff probes to be here.
Speaker D: He wasn't invited to Dino island. Come on.
Speaker G: But when he didn't show, we realized it was a whole new format to survivor, where we submit the challenges, and one is drawn at random that we have to do for that week.
Aaron: So who's all left? for players, let's see.
Speaker G: There's crystal Clearwater, Carla Chong, Ricks Rogers, Rebecca Roundhouse, Luna Lashana, Leah Ployd, and Dustin dirt floor.
Aaron: The rack.
Speaker G: Wait, did you just say the wreck is here?
Aaron: That's what we heard. I don't know if he's still on there.
Cameron: Kid said it, but he's kind of run off.
Speaker D: I thought you reinvented.
Speaker G: I haven't seen him, so he must not be participating. Oh, my gosh. Is he the guest host this season?
Aaron: is Jimmy Fallon, please?
Speaker G: Oh, yeah. We saw him over on the north beach. We originally thought he was part of all of this, but then he and a bunch of crazy people chased us away from that area. So we pretty much just avoided them for the rest of the game. They must be filming something else over there.
Speaker D: Wait, who invited you on this island?
Speaker G: Well, I assumed it was the producers of the show that invited us.
Speaker D: You came to this island knowing you're gonna be in a survivor dino hunt?
Speaker G: Yeah. I mean, my producer has been looking for all sorts of ways to get me back into the spotlight. And so when I came here and things started going crazy with the dinosaurs and such, I just assumed this season of survivor was how she was going to accomplish that for me. So I've just been rolling with the punches ever since.
Cameron: You guys fine?
Speaker G: Yeah, we're okay.
Speaker D: How can you be so desperate?
Cameron: I'm walking to the roller coaster now.
Aaron: Okay, you got the ice cold drinking soldier crack in the gut right now.
Speaker G: I mean, after all, we're still here. We haven't been voted off, so, yeah, we're doing pretty good.
Speaker D: You mean eating?
Speaker G: What? No, obviously we haven't been eaten by the dinosaurs. Why do you keep saying that anyways, do I need to start smack talking to other contestants now?
Speaker D: no, I think we're done.
Speaker G: Really?
Speaker D: Yeah.
Speaker F: And Thad's like, whoa, whoa, whoa. What about my turn?
Aaron: You're. You're not as important.
Speaker A: Aw.
Aaron: Just that it's straight.
Speaker A: And she looks at him and she.
Speaker G: Says, see, this is what happens when you underperform. In the last challenge, I made it through three ropes. Yeah. And then I had to swing across the other seven.
Speaker D: Shoot.
Cameron: It's actually pretty impressive.
Speaker A: He just kind of walks off. He's a little depressed now.
Speaker D: Okay, I'm gonna go to. I'm gonna go find the kid, I guess.
Speaker A: Okay. He's on the roller coaster.
Cameron: Yeah, he is on the roller coaster. I said, hey, get on the roller coaster. I'm gonna shoot this big start button here. Okay, you strapped in? I'm in the front seat maybe. Strapped in?
Speaker D: Wait, wait, you can't. You can't. You can't just send him by himself.
Cameron: Yes, I'm strapped in. He's strapped in. He's strapped in. He's fine. Why'd you wanna hop on?
Speaker D: Well, like you don't know.
Cameron: Come on, come on, come on.
Speaker D: You don't know if the roller coaster is still intact.
Cameron: Big green button says start. I'm, like, waving you over to get on the roller coaster. If the roller coaster was broken, this wouldn't be glowing. Just saying exactly yeah, I can't argue with my. I'm a doctor. Are you gonna let a child go on a roller coaster?
Speaker D: I know. I'm gonna go with him because I. I don't know if I really want to if it's broken. But at the same time. Same time, I'm concerned for his safety. I'm gonna, like, pull on his, make sure they're buckled.
Speaker A: You walk over and you do the classic tightening.
Cameron: Yeah, he's.
Speaker A: He's in pretty secure.
Speaker D: Okay, I'm gonna. Yeah, I'm sitting next to him.
Speaker A: No, that's probably for the best. All right, so you get, the footage. All right, so you're going on. You're going on. This is admiral aspect why you do.
Cameron: Where the directors here.
Speaker A: Oh, sorry. Yeah, don't let me step.
Cameron: Hold the boom mic. I'm not leaving. I'm not waving at him. Yeah, he doesn't go. You guys ready?
Speaker D: I guess.
Cameron: Jimmy, you ready? I've been ready. I'm gonna slam my fist on the green go button.
Speaker A: Push the green go button, and it starts to. The thingies come down over top of you. The little padding.
Cameron: They weren't down already?
Speaker A: No, no, they just had, like, seat belts. But then these keep you in place, right? So those come down, and then slowly it starts to take off. But otherwise, it's a smooth, exciting ride with a couple of big drops, maybe a loop de loop or two, and then eventually comes to an end as you guys slide back in, feeling exhilarated and anticlimactic, actually.
Cameron: Who says that after going on a roller coaster with loops, you know?
Speaker D: Well, you would think that, you know, like, there'd be, like, dinosaur themes, you know, like, there's some that, like, blow fire at you.
Speaker A: Oh, yeah, you're right.
Speaker D: There was. There's none of that.
Speaker A: Be honest. I didn't even know you guys were going to end up in the amusement park. I just kind of put it on.
Cameron: You put an amusement park at the entrance of our. It's pretty close. You let a ten year old. You're 100% let me choose the child. And you didn't flesh out the amusement park.
Speaker A: But what I will say. What I will say is that the two of you that were on when you guys got to the top, you know how it always slows down right at the top? You did get a really nice look, like pretty much the entire island. It's not a huge island. what you saw was, a few different things. over. Obviously, you saw in the center of the island, there's the headquarters for the dino quest kind of park in general, right on the sort of far, western shores. You kind of see what looks like just kind of like a swampland over in that sort of area. you obviously see the volcano. interestingly enough, something that kind of catches your eye is just kind of to the north of the volcano. You see another beach and you see what looks like some, sort of makeshift cabins and structures. Like people are living there. And you could swear that you saw little tiny people. Not little, tiny, little tiny to you from a distance, obviously that, looked like they were moving around on that.
Cameron: Where would that be at?
Speaker A: that would be way up in the north. Okay, I have the map right here. This is the bay. Yes, exactly.
Cameron: So it wouldn't be that far away if we had a vehicle.
Speaker A: Yeah, nothing would really be that far away if you had a vehicle.
Speaker D: Did we see any like, vehicle?
Speaker A: I think we're looking more out towards the expanse of the island versus like, what could be right here at the theme park.
Cameron: And for anyone looking at the map at home, I mean, are these lines like the roads that we would be able to drive on?
Speaker A: actually there are lines, but yeah, they're, they're actually a little bit different than what this map, map shows. But yeah, there's definitely lines that kind of have roads that go between all of the facilities. All that kind of makes sense.
Speaker D: So these are just like different sectors for each dinosaur habitat.
Speaker A: these are sort of just, ah, kind of, kind of. There's a mix within each one of these. But yeah, there's kind of a sector, on the eastern side, just before you get to the swamps, you see this massive glass dome, that you might recognize from some of the pictures as being the aviary. So if it's some of the flying dinosaurs, of course. No cracks in this dome. Surprisingly, you don't see any holes or anything like that.
Speaker D: Exactly.
Speaker A: On the southeastern section of the corner, you see what looks like a docks and you do see a massive, boat, like for deliveries and things along those lines. In the. It's on the north side of the aviation eastern side. You see what looks like platform for helicopters to land on. And you do remember, for those of you that have kind of been assigned this mission, that's supposed to be your escape point. That's where you are going to get picked up once you get the Dino DNA and you guys allegedly finish your film, right, filming. And then that's where the person that's paying you is going to pick you up, rather than having you go through the government processing where they're going to search you, and they're going to take the camera, and they're going to look through the footage and everything like that. He's gonna send a helicopter to pick you guys up. That's the plan. So you know where that is? Yeah.
Aaron: All right.
Speaker A: And that's. That's what you guys see before you get dropped down at 100 miles an hour, however fast it is that roller coasters usually go and have a good, high old time with, the ride as you guys come. That was okay. It was okay. It could have been better. as you guys kind of finish up, you do manage to find, as you guys kind of explore the rest of this theme park, you do manage to find, a couple of golf carts. They're not fast by any means. They are.
Aaron: Did I tell you, or did I tell you?
Speaker A: but they are accessible to you. actually, there is a go kart track. So they're like go karts, essentially.
Aaron: Faster than walking.
Speaker A: Yeah, that's true.
Cameron: For sure.
Speaker A: You're only able to find enough fuel to probably fill, let's say three. So that way, everybody.
Aaron: Well, two person golf carts.
Speaker A: It'll have to be.
Aaron: Or could we squeeze three on one?
Cameron: well, you have three, so I.
Aaron: Think between everybody getting, we could siphon the gas.
Speaker A: Well, so the gas that you find, I mean, it's like you find a couple of gas cans, you fill them up, and then Thad and Tiffany are standing there, and thad's like, oh, yeah.
Speaker F: You guys can take those. They were part of the challenge a couple weeks ago, so we won't be needing them again.
Speaker D: Who's explaining these challenges to you, or are you just making them up?
Speaker F: Well, it's like Tiffany was saying. So basically, every week, we meet up after the challenge, and we all sit around the big floor, and we have to write two things. One is our vote for who should get kicked off the island. The other is an idea for a challenge for next week.
Cameron: Just make up their own survivor.
Speaker A: Yeah, they're just making m up their own survivor.
Speaker F: So, yeah, we basically just draw one at random from the ones that have been submitted, and that's the challenge. It's pretty simple, really.
Speaker D: It beats dealing with the actual reality.
Cameron: For actually being found by.
Speaker A: Yeah.
Cameron: Dinosaurs.
Speaker A: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker F: So that's basically how that all works.
Cameron: yeah.
Speaker A: Sick.
Speaker F: So that's why the carts aren't filled up, because we used them for a challenge recently.
Speaker A: So that's why you guys only get three.
Speaker D: Oh, and they're not coming with us because they have to finish your challenge.
Speaker F: Oh, no, we're not going anywhere. We've got a challenge later tonight.
Speaker D: Okay.
Aaron: All right, well, this is part of it. You can't tell anyone else we were.
Speaker F: Well, of course not. Honestly, we figure they must have just hidden cameras all across the island, because you guys are the only production crew members we've seen.
Cameron: Yeah, we're bad at our camera.
Speaker D: Yeah, 100%. There's hidden cameras everywhere.
Speaker F: We just assumed you guys must have been here for interviews. Yeah, because we hadn't done one yet, so we were starting to get worried.
Cameron: Yeah.
Aaron: So we were talking to the other people beforehand.
Speaker F: Oh, okay. So did they, did they say anything about us?
Aaron: They said you're getting carried by, what's her name?
Speaker A: Oh, Tiffany.
Aaron: Tiffany.
Speaker A: She just pumps her fish.
Speaker G: Yeah, that's right.
Speaker F: Crap. I need some alliances, otherwise I'm gonna end up getting voted off.
Cameron: I got $10 on you.
Speaker A: You do?
Cameron: Yeah. Ah, wow.
Speaker F: That really means a lot to have your support.
Cameron: Thanks.
Speaker F: I didn't know the crew of the show was allowed to take bets, but. Right on.
Cameron: We're not. You really are.
Speaker A: All right. All right, so you guys grab, go karts. you load up, and you head out. And you guys are headed to the headquarters, I assume the center of the island. I mean, I'm just.
Aaron: There's that electric box right towards the middle of it.
Speaker A: Yeah.
Cameron: Probably we'd buy there first. It's on the way.
Speaker D: Yeah, there might be more gas or.
Cameron: Whatever, you know, turn the electricity on the rest of the.
Aaron: Maybe a jeep.
Speaker A: Maybe a jeep. Who knows?
Cameron: So, m who's in my vehicle?
Speaker D: Yeah, who's.
Speaker A: Who's gonna be, like, two of who?
Cameron: Because I was gonna make some small talk with whoever is in my vehicle.
Speaker A: Okay. Who did anybody want who chose to.
Cameron: Ride with the child? I guess it's a better way. Part of me thought we just took two, and the child just hopped on the back of the back. Yeah, that's a fun way to ride golf carts.
Speaker A: That's true.
Speaker D: I would assume that I was in the car with a challenge because I went on the roller coaster with him.
Speaker A: Oh, okay. Yeah.
Cameron: Okay.
Speaker A: So, Mikayla, Doctor Mackenzie, you're in the car with little Jimmy. Who are you riding with? Doctor? Other doctor? Lazarus, you're with asthma?
Cameron: Yeah. So you be with the military guys? I beat the. Well, all three of us are in one. Would you be with them? Because Jimmy.
Aaron: Ah, well, I have to. I have to record the director. But I feel like I'm going for the wide action shots.
Speaker A: Yeah, so you'd be on the same one with the doctor so you could get shots of, them. Well, maybe you got your well, or.
Cameron: Maybe you're on the back of one. The one in front shooting backwards.
Speaker D: Aspen has his own. Nobody want me to sue. He don't want to destroy him.
Cameron: Okay.
Speaker A: So as it takes, cart number three by himself kind of just looks sad, but he's just keeping an eye on you guys.
Cameron: Barely. I'm doing none of my job. So you're trying to shoot and drive better than me? Honestly, driving, he's trained for this. It's not a strange activity.
Speaker A: Sure, sure.
Cameron: You know, and I'm a doctor, so I probably would be a better driver than doctor after all.
Speaker D: So I'm assuming it's aspen in front because he's leading the way. Then it's me and Jimmy, and then it's you guys.
Speaker A: Yeah, I think that's sounds good.
Cameron: So while I'm driving with, I go, hey, Tim. You go by Tim?
Aaron: Technically, m my first name, sergeant.
Cameron: Ah, that's pretty things we learned. It's pretty dope, man. I'm a cool doctor, by the way. That's why I say cool things like dope and chill and chillax.
Speaker D: Anyways, are you one of those doctors who just, like, is high all the time here?
Aaron: There's some medical marijuana for your aching shoulder.
Speaker A: The soldier.
Cameron: I would never. Is that legal here? I was just wondering. International waters. Is that legal here, sergeant? Anyway, country. I'm a little shaky on our plan, and, I was just wondering, like, how are we supposed to communicate with helicopter?
Aaron: I am guessing that.
Cameron: Do you have a radio? I don't got a radio. Did anyone get a radio? I'm guessing the kid don't got one.
Aaron: I don't know. Plug in. Plug your ear.
Speaker A: I would say you. Ah, you have a phone. You have a cell phone, and it's like a burner phone for a very specific purpose.
Aaron: Yeah. So.
Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, you don't have to be honest.
Aaron: I have a one time emergency call. Phone number.
Cameron: Is that for the helicopter, or is that just because you're little scaredy pants? Whoa, whoa. That was a joke. Sorry to hit. Calm down. I make jokes. I'm a cool doctor.
Aaron: Points.
Cameron: Camera. Hey, man, that's it. You're missing the shot. Look, we're gonna go over a pothole. Oh, gosh. whoa. That camera's got some sparks.
Aaron: It's more for a one time time exit type deal.
Cameron: For the helicopter?
Aaron: Yeah, for the helicopter.
Cameron: Perfect. And you've got the radio.
Aaron: I've got the emergency. Get the heck out.
Cameron: So did we need to go to this communication tower to get this radio working? Or maybe they have more radios. Then we won't need a one time. We could just have unlimited radio.
Aaron: In my opinion, it would be more beneficial for all of us to have a radio in case of some sort of separation.
Cameron: True that. Little Jimmy likes to run off a lot.
Aaron: Well, yeah. And then on top of that, we might be able to find out more survivors and find, out more information of what happened, which would better help us in our. I just attempt at getting what we're trying to do.
Cameron: I just really hope these survivors aren't injured, that's for sure. Or else you might have to, you know, help them.
Aaron: I don't know how I can help them.
Cameron: Oh, you do a great job.
Aaron: I'm not trained in basic first aid.
Cameron: You and me both. oh. So anyways. Oh, look, I think I see a, satellite dish or something up in the distance.
Speaker A: And you do you do you, as you guys start to approach the radio, tower, you guys can see there's a radio tower, and then there's kind of a shed, very similar to the electricity one that you saw before, but this one's a little bit bigger. Someone could go inside of it. there might be some storage or something along those. Those lines in there. or at the very least, some communication supplies. But whatever the case, as you guys pull your go karts up to this, facility, that is where we're going to close out episode one.
