Welcome everybody to the Couch and Comic Podcast. I'm your host, the ice man. Let's go. Alright everyone, we're back. Here we go. Issue number three of a quiet place storm warning. And if you remember, we left off with Terry and uh Mia getting hit by a log and uh pretty much you know separated in the in the ocean, in the Mississippi Ocean, I guess. Alright, here we go. What we know they can't see, they can't swim, they follow sound, does rain cover sound? Chief Frey destroyed the levee. Only one way in or out of Pearl remains. What we don't know, can Mayor Fair get Mia back to the rest of her family safely? What's Chief Fry up to? Illustration drawn. I guess uh one of the civilians wrote that down. Moat around the world. Alright, we start with Terry. The tree has hit her, she's bouncing around in the ocean, hitting debris because the rain is heavy, mud flow, everything is giving me giving Terry a hard time. She's swirling around she's swirling around in the in the middle of the ocean. She ends up on a shoreline. It's raining heavy. She gets up, she sees a death angel on a building nearby. His head is opening, listening for all kinds of sounds. Terry sees Mia hanging from a stump to tree, unconscious. Kaboom! Lightning strikes everywhere. Terry is worried. Is Mia okay? Terry Terry rushes over to Mia. Mia is alive. She's just stuck on a branch. Terry walks up the tree stump, making all kinds of noises to free Mia. She falls down, the tree breaks. She gets back up, tries to climb the tree stump. A death angel turns his attention to the noise. Terry, slowly this time, climbs a broken tree branch to rescue Mia. She climbs a tree. As she gets closer, the tree that Mia's hanging on snaps. We cut to then. We see Larry on the bank. On one side of the the embankment. Well, that's fine. How do you do? This road is completely washed out. Back up, dad. Oh no. Oh no, no, no, no. We're fine. Here on the mainland side, kids solid better rock. Ask that man on the other side what happened to the road. Hey buddy, what's going on here? How do we get into town? Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Huh? He's just waving his arms for some reason. He obviously can't hear you over the rain. I can barely hear you myself. Hello, honk, honk. He honks the horn. They really should have a barrier up here. At least some road flares, or the man quickly turns around as he hears something. He sees the claws of a death angel reaching for his car. The death angel grabs the car and flips it, throws it in the air. What? The death angel strikes the man down. Oh no. No way. Says Larry. Why? Why did you have to? You pieces of shit. You absolute pieces of shit. Go ahead and try to come over here. I ain't got a car full of kids. Larry puts up his fist. Try to set foot on Pearl and see what happens. You overgrown bug motherfuckers. This is our town, you hear me? There's been fries on this island from before it was even a town. And there'll be fries here after you're gone. Our goddam town. As Larry shouts at the death angels on the other shore. We cut back to Terry and Mia. As the branch broke and Mia began to fall, Terry grabbed her. I got you, Mia. A death angel hears commotion and continues to charge forward. They make all the sounds. Pop, crack, pop. Who the death angel starts to run after them. The tree begins to break. Terry grabs Mia. The tree falls on the death angel. As Terry and Mia begin to run, the death angel breaks free from being trapped underneath the tree. Caleb, come back. Caleb! Sorry, Terry, I can barely hear you over the storm. Exactly. We've got to use this as cover to move folks to the fire station. The thing's down by the grain elevator right now. So we've got some time. Thing. What about the other one? We we got one of them. Mia Mia Fry. God, you mean killed? God damn, I love you. As the death angel breaks free from the tree. Maggie Wynne is out of insulin over on Clark Street. And the fries need water. The death angel hears it. Looks towards Mia and Terry. Already on it. Barb's got Maggie. I'm moving the fries right now. Is Mia okay? Hi Mom. Hi Brody. We're fine over here. Here for now. Yeah, well, I wish I could say the same thing for us. We're stuck in the goddamn muddy lane between popular and main. Back back to then. Larry walks to his door. He sees his kids and wife playing. He looks so sad. He gets to dynamite the TNT. He drags it to his truck. You're lucky. If Mia have found you sneaking around back here, oh my god. Lonnie, your arm. I I don't I didn't want to scare you. Lonnie's arm is all scratched up from what the Death Angel did. They're here, Gloria. At least on the Iowa side of the river. But I kept them out. Took the levee down, lost the boat. Saw what they can do. I saw them take out a whole family easy as a dog wringing a rat to death. Hold still, you dope. This is probably broken, you know. I can't let them reach us. The highway bridge has to come down tonight. And you're gonna bleed your way across town and light the fuse with your dying breath like in a movie? I was ready to die for you when we first met. In my head, anyway, some macho shit, you know? But the day you have Brody, I could feel it in here. More real than myself. But now, I can't stand to think of what being gone will do to you. And how do you think I feel about it? And all in all for this half-ass town? Lonnie, these people are as likely to cut you down as one of those creatures. It's not your job to save the world. Honey, we've got nowhere to run to. Aqua is gone. For all we know, everywhere is gone. Pearl might as well be the whole world now. As Londe's wife continues to bandage his badly broken, bleeding arm. And you're my whole world. If those things get on the island, we die. Maybe we die together, but we die. Or I can try to keep them off no matter what it takes. I'll make the choice every time. Or maybe you just get your shit together and blow up that bridge and come back home like a normal husband. Yeah, okay, that sounds like a brr. Are you spying on us, young lady? It was Brody's idea. Oh yeah? He made you push his chair between those crates? What happened to your arm? Little accident, but mom patched me up pretty good. I was trying to run the dredge by myself. It's kind of hard without my usual crew. I could have helped you. Everyone needs help, Daddy. I bet, but you're helping me now so much, more than you'll ever know. He bends down, puts his hand on Mia's shoulders. Back to now. They're stuck? Babe, forget the chair. Just grab the kid and get to the station. Brody won't like that. Only Daddy takes him out of his chair, says Mia. Brody starts freaking out. Brody, baby, hold still, you little as Brody continues to move. God damn it! He tries to contain Brody, but Brody is just unable unable to sit still and contain himself. I told you, said Mia. As Terra and Mia begin to make their way over to Brody the rain. It stopped. Oh hell. The Death Angel hears the commotion and begins to make its move. Stay still, it can hear us again. Back to then. I don't see any boats, guys. Probably has his running lights off, Barb. Man, how are we supposed to shoot a damn river boat anyway? Aim for the tires. Warning shots only, people. We're trying to save lives here. I'm sure Lina would turn back once he sees we're actually guarding the bridge. He's not suicidal, just confused. Well, I'm ready to unconfuse him one way or another. Caleb, says Terry. Hey, something is wrong, like really wrong. I was texting my cousin and Aqua about all this and they just went dark. Yeah, I got no service at all. All my feeds are f frozen from like 20 minutes ago. Says everyone around. Says all the guards are checking their phones, weapons drawn. Now that you mention it, anyone got a call or text of any kind last hour? Fuck me, they ate the internet, says one of the guys. Everyone, settle down. Bunch of teenage girls can't stay off your phones for five goddamn minutes. Pearl is right here, and we gotta protect it. Not dick around commenting on someone's birthday party pictures. Now, I need a couple of you to head down to the levee and see why Clem isn't answering. They hear something on the bridge. The hell? They're here, they're here. They all begin to open fire. Shooting their weapons, pistols, shotguns, rifles, all in the direction of the sound. Okay, okay, Jesus. Probably just a raccoon under the bridge or they stop. They hear a novel sound. There it is again. It's coming from under the bridge. Trent, Barb, you keep an eye out up here. Everyone else with me. He begins to rally the civilians with him. Fingers off your trigger, guys. We don't need to be putting holes in each other. Something's up there in the dark, rustling around. I got ears, Terry. Give me that spotlight. He takes the flashlight from Terry. As they make their way under the bridge, they see Lonnie. Hey everyone, do me a favor. Do not shoot. He rigged a bridge with all types of explosives all over the bridge. To be continued. Alright, this is kind of a you know a different episode here setting up. But yeah, man, like this guy has a point. Let's blow the bridge and freaking live. I don't know why the town's going crazy. That's what I would do. To save my family, to save the people I love, I'll blow I'll blow the shit out of that bridge. But alright, you guys, that's issue number three of a quiet place storm morning. Hope you guys like it. I'm doing my best. I'm so new to all this stuff, but uh I'm gonna keep them rolling. Alright. Well, I'm your host, The Iceman.
