- Authorities are appealing for calm

throughout the evacuation process.

- No, nothing.

- No, it's not that.

- You're thinking about Amber.

- I'm supposed to be leading the search,

but I have no idea where to look.

- I just wish that there was something I could do to help.

- You are helping me, more than you know.

Me neither.

- You don't agree with this election, do you?

- I think it's a shame that we need leaders.

But if I had to vote for someone, I'd choose Bray.

- You only have to look at The Guardian

to find the answer to that.

- Are you saying that that's what power does to people?

He was crazy from the start, we know that now.

He's a damaged human being.

- We're all damaged, Luke.

I'll say one thing for this election, though.

It's brought a sense of purpose.

It's been a long time since we worked together as a tribe.

- Don't even like the guy, Mr. Squeaky Clean.

You wouldn't catch me voting for him.

Better than Madame Moz.

Who would you vote for?

Ebony, I suppose.

- No reason.

She seems to be taking the lead a lot nowadays.

Bray even seems to like her.

You hooked up with her for awhile, didn't you, at the hotel?

- She's okay.

She knows the streets pretty well.

You can't trust her, not completely.

You're always waiting for you to stab you in the back.

- We're not telling people how to vote,

just what Bray's gonna do if he gets elected.

That's news, isn't it?

- No, it's propaganda.

- Oh, and that stuff you wrote about the money?

About how it's gonna make us all slaves?

What was that?

- I gave both sides of the argument.

- You put your argument last so

everyone knew what you thought about it.

It's Ellie's paper.

What are we gonna do?

- Give the news of the other candidates as well as yours.

The Amulet is not a Mall Rat thing, Bray.

If it's not impartial, how can it call itself a newspaper?

- And how you can you call yourself a reporter?

- That's right.

- But honey you can be a reporter next week.

How about this?

We could just be loyal to your tribe.

Bray, I'm sorry, I guess I'm just nervous.

I mean, if this election backfires on us,

it'll be all my fault.

- I think Ellie's got a good point.

Well, this way we can see if the voters have prepared

to listen to all points of view.

And that's gonna be my message for the whole campaign.

- It's been worse since I came back.

I thought the fight might've cleared the air, but.

- Look, I don't mean to interfere,

but can't you just talk to him?

We need everyone to pull together now.

- He thinks I don't care about Amber and Trudy.

- So put him straight.

I mean, you guys have worked well together in the past.

You know, you should be friends.

- To talk.

- Yeah, I bet you do.

Got a message from Moz, right?

Well, I'm ready for you.

Show me what you've got.

- It's not like that.

Moz doesn't know we're doing this.

- Tell us more about this money.

Can it really buy stuff?

- We wanna be your deputies,

if that's alright with you, sheriff.

- Hey, KC, we've run out of posters.

Could you get some more?

- I'll just go see.

- Don't hurry.

- Hey, thanks, guys, you're doing a great job.

- Just keeping the dream alive, Bray.

Can I talk to you a minute?

- If you need help getting elected,

politics isn't really my game.

- No, it's not that.

Well, come on, Pride.

You've never forgiven me for not trading The Guardian

like the ransom note said.

- Hey, Amber's your girl.

- She is, and I know her a lot better than you, okay?

I'm not saying I made the right decision.

In fact, I beat myself up about it everyday.

But I'm pretty sure I did what Amber

would've wanted me to do.

- Okay, and what about your little walkabout,

your disappearing act?

You think she would've approved of that?

Look, I'm only going through with this election thing

so I can call the shots.

If I win, I'm gonna take this city apart

brick by brick to find her.

So, tell me, how's the investigation going?

- It's not.

- Maybe.

Ned.

I know, he's not smart enough to pull off a scam

like this on his own, but he wasn't at the party

when the girls disappeared.

Plus, he's strong.

He could've easily overpowered them.

I don't know, it's just a hunch.

- Well, see, Ebony thinks that it could be Trudy.

She betrayed the Mall Rats before.

But, that's as far as I've got.

To be truthful, Bray, I'm no closer to finding Amber

and Trudy than when I first started.

- This is cold.

I thought you said all of troubles would be over soon?

- Yeah, well, not soon enough.

- Oh, I don't mind waiting, not if you give me

little presents like this from time to time.

- I told you to keep quiet about that.

- It's only KC.

What do ya think?

This is what lover boy here won my heart with.

I know what you're thinking.

I should've held out for something better.

And the ring's not that flash either.

- It's my business.

Give me a couple more.

- Uh, I don't know if I should.

- Just hand 'em over.

I can take the whole bag if I wanted to.

I'm sheriff, remember?

- Yeah, and I'm treasurer.

I'm supposed to keep track of where the money goes.

Each of these coins has to be accounted for,

otherwise this thing won't work.

- I have some deputies who are gonna help me

out on the street.

They need to be paid.

One am per deputy per day.

For what, Lex?

For a bunch of thugs to hang out

on the streets playing macho?

- They're girls, mate.

They don't do macho.

And don't get above yourself.

If I had my way, you'd be buzzard food right now,

along with that fruitcake boss of yours.

You might've been let out of your cell,

but as far as I'm concerned, you're still on probation.

Andy, come over here.

- Oh, nothing.

I just wanted to reward you for

helping me out the other day.

- Wow!

- Don't say I've never given you nothing.

- Wow, two ams!

What am I supposed to do with them?

- Hey.

Can I get you a hot drink?

- Um, thanks.

- Uh, no, thanks, May.

I'm just about to leave.

- Okay.

- Well, it seems quite a lot's been going on

since I went on my walkabout, huh?

- It's not what you think.

- No, it's none of my business.

It's been good talking to you, Pride.

I'll see you later.

- You did a good job.

It's up to Bray from here on in.

- Not too many.

The Demon Dogs, Jackals, the Mozquitos.

- Some old scores to settle.

- Sure.

But we got a head start on them, thanks to you.

- Well, one should be grateful.

This the second time you've saved me, Ebony.

- By giving me something to do.

Thought I'd go crazy there for awhile,

but now I'm finally able to give something back.

I owe you my life.

Luke, I need some help with The Amulet.

That is, if you're not too busy.

- I'll, um, I'll get these out on the streets.

- Type these up for me. I'm going out.

Where?

Ellie, is something the matter?

- No, no, nothing's the matter.

I just, you know, dumped my boyfriend

and threw my life away for nothing, that's all.

- Well, I heard you sucking up to her.

So, you were gonna end your life until

she came along and saved you?

Is that how it was?

- Ellie, I--

- Save it!

I hope you'll be very happy together.

- To interview some of the other candidates,

give a balanced view.

That's my job, in case you hadn't noticed.

You might get lucky, some Demon Dogs might help you

end your tragic life.

- Oh, hi, Ned. Do you need some more of these?

- You know what I need, Ebony.

But I got bad news.

Time has run out, the deal is off.

I'm gonna go and tell Bray where

his beloved Amber is hiding.

I've got it.

- All the stuff you asked for for the farm,

livestock, machinery.

I told you I'd get it and I have.

- Of course.

Oh, KC, do me a favor.

Put these up in a ghetto area.

- How about a sore head if you don't do it?

- No, I've gotta get it moved across country.

But, just leave it to me, Ned.

By this time tomorrow, you'll be paid in full,

and that's a promise.

- Put that down!

- I can trade, honest.

What's this?

- An am.

I'll give you an am for it.

Two ams?

- Get outta here.

- Well, I don't know what else to do.

- Well, let's go find Amber.

- It's a big city, May.

Look, I haven't always been a Mall Rat.

I used to live on the streets.

So I've got a few contacts downtown,

if you know what I mean.

The kind of places that, you know,

this sort of stuff happens.

- I didn't know.

- Yeah, well, it's better than

hanging around the mall, isn't it?

- Thanks.

Listen, May.

If we're gonna be working as a team together on this,

can we keep it a secret that we're?

You're ashamed to be with me.

- No, it's just, while this project's under way,

I don't want the others to think

that we're just going off to be alone.

Do you mind?

Okay.

This place isn't safe.

Come on, I'll take you back to the mall.

- I'm never going back.

I hate the Mall Rats.

- They never listen to anything I say.

- Welcome to the club.

- They're always playing tricks on me,

like this stupid money.

- Lex gave it to me, said I could buy stuff with it.

So I tried, but it didn't work.

Who was it?

Show me.

- Ah, such a good feeling, have my own posse again.

Kinda makes you walk a little taller, you know.

- I bet, especially when the posse's a group

of girls wearing velvet catsuits, right, Lex?

- Ah, well, I have to admit that does help.

It's not like having your own tribe.

Don't you ever miss it?

- Being in charge.

I remember you in the old days,

the head of a big swarm of Locos.

Must've been such a high.

- It was just about survival, Lex.

I don't miss it.

That part of my life is over.

I don't have ambitions anymore.

- Uh, Ebony, I need to talk to Lex.

Would you mind?

- He's all yours.

- Did you see Ellie when you were out patrolling?

Is she missing?

- Well, she's working on a story, but she went alone.

Lex, I'm worried about her.

- Look, you know I can't go after her.

Maybe I should take my deputies along.

You know, those macho thugs I've got working for me.

Well, it's out of the question, Luke.

Hey, at the very least,

you'd have to pay me overtime for something like that.

My own tribe joining forces with a Mall Rat.

- He's gonna pay us.

I'll pay you, you dirty traitor.

Ah, sorry, is this a bad time to call?

- I just wanna talk.

- I don't talk to Mall Rats.

- Right now, I'm not a Mall Rat, I'm a journalist.

I'm trying to run a newspaper, The Amulet?

I wanted to get your views on the election,

maybe another time.

- Don't go.

I'll give you my views.

That's what I think of your newspaper, and the Mall Rats.

First, I was accused of kidnapping,

attacked for no reason, and now your people

are trying to poach my tribe.

Well, you tell them from me, leave the Mozzies alone,

or you'll have a full-scale attack on your hands.

- Why don't you tell them in The Amulet,

and tell the rest of the city while you're at it?

No strings?

- You wouldn't print that.

- Yes, I would, you have my word.

- But that would mean selling out your friends.

You'd do that for a lousy comic?

- It's called journalism.

- Okay, watch closely.

I'm gonna teach you something about trading.

Hand me the coins.

Hey, how's business?

Ah, my friend tells me you wouldn't accept these.

It's the new money.

Don't tell me you haven't heard about it.

See this?

Once the Mall Rats win the election,

everybody will have to use these coins.

- So come back when they've won.

- Sure, we will, only they won't be as valuable

once they're in circulation.

Right now, these are collector's items, very valuable.

- It's worth this necklace.

You won't regret it.

Lesson number one, Andy, always make sure the other guy

reckons he's got the better deal.

- Well, that's fantastic.

But I don't want a necklace.

- You're not getting it.

This is payment for my services.

Nothing's free in this world, Andy.

That's lesson number two.

- Well, to win, of course.

What else?

- But there must by other issues that concern you.

Like, which is more important to you, food and water

or trade, that kind of stuff.

- Okay, well I'll tell you something off the record.

I'd try and encourage kids from different tribes

to get along better.

If we all start pulling together,

it'll make things so much easier.

- So you're saying we should forget the independent

tribe system and all go under the same flag?

- No, what I'm saying is, I've seen a lot of wasted talent

out there, talent that us Mozzies could benefit from.

Well, take you, for example.

You're a girl with real guts.

Why don't you shake the pack of losers you're with

and come and join us?

- What have the Mozquitos got that the Mall Rats don't?

- Bigger hairstyles.

- Sorry, I'm loyal to my tribe.

I better get going.

Stop her, girls.

- I was just going by on a routine patrol

and I heard your voice.

Is there a problem?

- No, no problem.

Moz and her mates were just showing me the door.

It was great talking to you, thanks.

- Don't mention it.

Now get off my patch, both of you.

- Hey, Moz, you should come pay me a visit

after the election.

I might have jobs for the rest of your crew.

- Smells good.

- Oh, it's for The Guardian.

He still isn't eating properly.

Do you think he ever will?

- Some day, maybe.

- You look like you could use a break.

Why don't I feed him?

- It's okay.

- No, Tai-San, really.

It's my turn.

You shouldn't have to do this all by yourself.

I know how much it upsets you.

- Well, if you're sure.

- To escort me to lunch.

I know this little place, not too far from here,

where they serve the best tinned meat

and instant mashed potato on the side.

- Oh, that sounds divine.

What brought all this on?

- I mean, you've been miserable all morning.

Why the change of heart?

But I'm having a great day.

- Hm, that's what you love about me.

- Ellie!

Where have you been?

- You don't wanna hear about it.

Luke, I'm really, really sorry.

What I said about you and Ebony.

- As long as you're okay.

What's this?

- Ah, Moz's opinions of the election.

Take out the swear words, you might have a sentence.

Alone?

- What, are you saying I can't handle myself or something?

Come here, I need a hug.

- Hi, May.

- Oh, KC, hi.

Uh, would you like to come in?

I mean, Pride's not here, is he?

Uh, did you want him for something?

- No, I want to see you.

I don't know if it's real silver or anything.

- I just want you to know how much I,

how much I like you.

- Oh, KC.

- Maybe we could go out some time.

- Uh, I'm very flattered, it's lovely.

But, I can't accept this.

- Because then you might think that we might.

Look, KC, you're a great kid, but there's just no way.

You best forget about it.

I'm sorry.

- I bet you can't wait to get out of here.

Well, I've got news for you.

You're gonna get your wish.

Ned's made a deal with Moz.

You remember Moz?

Oh, she remembers you.

She wants to cut you up into little pieces.

That's why Ned's gonna spring you out of here,

to trade you for the hostages.

Poor old Ned.

But wouldn't he get a shock if it turned out

you weren't so helpless?

Still, I don't know why I'm telling you all this.

You don't understand a word I'm saying, do you?
