Episode 2 - Who Wants The Wing

While Bravo 1 keeps screaming for help in the next room, the rest of the team is pondering on an optimal solution, preferably one that doesn't involve them going in. Frank is the only one who insists on taking a look on what is actually happening to Bravo 1, but the others strictly disapprove of the idea of entering the hallway. As the screams die off, the group tries to pick a volunteer to see what actually happened, but no one seems interested. The Chief decides to go in first and take Frank with him.

Transcript

Fade in to most of Bravo Team still waiting in the hallway
Bravo 1:	(from wherever he is) (screams) Oh God that one hurt!
Frank:	Shouldn't we try to help him!?
Bravo 1:	Oh, somebody help me!
Chief:	Okay, hold on, we don't know for sure that he is in trouble. Come in Bravo 1, do you need assistance? Hmm, no answer. I guess we should assume he's okay.
Frank:	He's screaming! What else do you need to hear?
Bravo 1:	If someone doesn't help me I'm gonna freaking die!
Frank:	There, see!?
Bravo 3:	Bravo 1's a cool customer. He'll probably work through it on his own.
Bravo 1:	Oh it just ate my leg!
Frank:	What ate your leg!? What ate his leg?
Bravo 1:	I needed my leg!
Frank:	He's gotta have his leg!
Bravo 2:	I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation for all of this.
Bravo 3:	You always say that man.
Bravo 2:	Well, that's because there's always a logical explanation.
Bravo 1:	Ow! Owww!
Bravo 3:	What about the time we saw that spiral notebook? Floatin'. In mid air.
Bravo 1:	Oh my God why is someone talking about the notebook?
Bravo 2:	The window was open. The wind could have blown it off the table.
Bravo 1:	I need help!
Bravo 3:	Yeah, but that still doens't explain how the words "Get Out Bravo Team" suddenly appeared on one of the pages.
Bravo 1:	You're driving me freaking crazy, someone's gotta be able to hear me screaming. Ah! (gurgle gurgle gurgle)
Bravo 2:	Maybe it was on one of Alpha Team's notebook, those guys have always been jealous.
Bravo 1:	...
Frank:	He's stopped. I think he's dead.
Chief:	Bravo 1, I say again, do you need assistance?
Bravo 1:	...
Chief:	Yeah, he's dead. Maybe we should just-
Bravo 1:	Haow!
Everyone turns to look
Chief:	Huh?
Bravo 1:	Why am I getting a call, on the radio? Oh my God, just come in here and start shooting! Owhowhow, ooh! Yah! This time I'm really gonna die, I mean it! (coughing) (gurgling) (ominous silence)
Chief:	Okay, that's it, it's time to take some action here.
Frank:	Oh so now we're gonna take action. Great.
Chief:	Bravo 3, I need you to go in that room, ascess the situation, and report back to me.
Bravo 3:	Uh, shouldn't we go in numerical order Chief?
Chief:	What?
Bravo 3:	Well Bravo 1 went in first. Doesn't really make sense to send in Bravo 3, when clearly it's Bravo 2's turn.
Bravo 2:	Okay, that's bullshit.
Bravo 3:	Then why even have the numbers in the first place Bravo 2? You need to be thinking about the system.
Bravo 2:	Screw the system, in fact I think I just got promoted to Bravo 1, which makes you Bravo 2 now, so it's your turn!
Bravo 3:	I think even you have to realize what a poorly formed argument that is.
Chief:	Well someone needs to go in there and evaluate the situation.
Bravo 2:	I can evaluate just fine from out here. We're in the hallway, and we're alive. Bravo 1 walked in to that room, and now he's about fifty different kinds of fucked up. That's the situation.
Frank:	He didn't walk in the room, he- he was pulled in by some unseen force!
Bravo 2:	I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation for that.
Frank:	Stop saying that!
Chief:	O-kay, I'm goin' in.
Frank:	Finally!
Chief:	Men, you stay here. Frank, you're with me.
Frank:	Good idea. Wait- what?
