I would like to dedicate these next few parts to Mad-hatter-Tom, for the bus idea, thanks.

Joey: (waking up) ahh shit, can't feel my face! (Looking down) hey, where my clothes!

Shayne: (poking at the fire with a stick) don't worry, they're being dried.

Joey: damnit, what the hell happen yesterday?

Shayne: you mean that you became unconscious?

Joey: no, with Jones, is he- is he-

Shayne: he's fine, Nancy was watching over him last night.

Charlie: (throwing clothes at Joey) here man, take the thingy, and the gun.

Joey: (wearing the hoodie) thanks.

Shayne: oh yeah, before I forget, Jones wanna speak with you.

Joey: why?

Shayne: dunno.

Joey: I hope it not about the fuck up driving last night.

Shayne: (shrugs)

Joey: (walking straight)

Charlie: don't go that way!

Joey: why?

Charlie: the girls are changing there!

Joey: oh.

Charlie: Jones is over there by the water.

Joey: (laughing) next time, tell me where he is!

Jones: (watching the water) that was a hell of a storm last night, right Joey?

Joey: (walking towards him) yeah, well at least it's wasn't snowing.

Jones: Joey, look, I been thinkin', and I think on all the time I mess up. The time at Samuel's group, how I went crazy and forgot what we were doing. Doubting you, that you weren't alive when you were lost in the city. Letting Samuel died back on the road. Telling you to turn, and almost drown us, well, I almost did-

Joey: so what are you saying?

Jones: what I saying is that I am a terrible leader! I don't want to be leader anymore, I want you to be leader.

Joey: (eyes widen) me!?

Jones: yes you who else!

Joey: ... did a rock hit you on your head when you were in the water?

Jones: Joey, I'm serious-

Joey: so am I, did it!

Jones: look, I tired of making bad desicion, I want someone to make better decisions-

Joey: you think I will make better ones?

Jones: yes, now please stop being impossible.

Joey: ... why me?

Jones: look, if you don't like being the leader for a day, then give to someone else other than me, okay!

Joey: fine, but first, I gotta go dried my shoe off.

Jones: why?

Joey: 'cause, my sock smell like shit!

Jones: (laughing) get the fuck outta of here!

Joey: (fake laughing, realizing that he a leader) I be right back.

Jones: okay, don't forget to tell everyone.
