Church and Tucker behind a rock, bullets hitting the canyon wall behind them

Church: My God, doesn't that thing ever run out of bullets?

Tucker: You know, in hindsight, we should have brought the tank.

Church: Hey, Tucker, what good is a tank gonna do us if nobody here knows how to drive it?

Tucker: Yeah, I can see how hiding behind a rock is a much better strategy.

Church: Well, yeah, but... oh man, I guess I gotta give that one to ya.

Cut to the Rookie hopping in the tank. Tank canopy closes, tank turns on

Tank: Hello, and thank you for activating the M808V Main Battle Tank. You may call me Sheila.

Rookie: Hello. Sheila. Big tank lady.

Sheila: Would you like me to run the tutorial program?

Rookie: Oh, that'd be very nice. Thank you.

Sheila: Tutorial program activated. This program is intended to instruct non-certified personnel in the use of the Scorpion class tank. Let's begin with some driving.

Rookie: Okay.

Cut to Simmons firing the jeep's gun, and Grif on the ground behind him

Grif: Simmons. SIMMONS!

Simmons stops firing, steps down

Grif: Man, that thing is loud.

Simmons: WHAT?

Tank rolls by in the background

Grif: Come on, let's sneak around the back of the rock and get 'em out.

Simmons: OKAY.

Grif: Keep it down! Jesus. Let's go, before they figure out what's going on.

Cut to the Rookie having Sheila stranded on a tall rock, turning, trying to get off of it

Sheila: Now that you've mastered driving the M808V, let's move on to some of the safety features.

Rookie: No, no, wait, go back! (unstrands the tank) Why are there six pedals if there are only four directions?

Cut to Church peeking out from the side of the rock, Tucker standing behind it

Church: (whispering) Psst, hey, they stopped firing.

Tucker: Why are you whispering?

Church: (whispering) Uhm... I don't know.

Cut to Simmons and Grif standing at the foot of a cliff

Grif: Aw, crap, I don't think we're gonna be able to get around this way.

Simmons: Tell me again, uh, why did we get out of the jeep?

Tank rolls up right behind them

Grif: Well, I guess it was this or sit there and watch you shoot rocks all day long.

Tank's turret looks at Grif, then at Simmons

Simmons: Well at least that was fun.

Grif and Simmons both turn at once to see the tank

Grif: Hoolyy crap. What in God's name is that thing?

Cut to Church and Tucker, looking at the vacant jeep

Church: Tucker, don't be stupid. They're just trying to draw us out.

Tucker: No they're not, look: they left the jeep. They're gone.

Church: Well, I don't know about this. It seems pretty fishy, but... alright screw it, let's go get it.

Cut to the view from inside the tank, turret slowly homing in on Grif's head

Grif: Dude hold still. I don't think it sees us.

Tank gets tone on Grif's head
