Sheila: "This will end the tutorial, and should only be activated if proper safety procedures–"
Cut to Simmons and Grif.
Simmons: "Okay, you ready? Let's do this on three. One..."

Tucker: "What? No way!"
Caleb and Calynn peek their heads up.
Calynn: "Oh, shite."
Caleb: "That's not good."
Bell: "Tell him to be careful! Tanks are scary!"
Church runs to the cliff's edge and yells down to Michael.
Church: "Hey, rookie, good job, man!" He turns to Caleb and Calynn. "Why didn't you tell us your brother knew how to drive the tank?"
Calynn: "He doesn't." She says while crouching back behind the rock.
