The GC looks up as he drops the empty dog food can to the floor below..Max opens his eyes slowly, Max blinks as he lifts his head slightly, Dogg turns and looks at the birdman for a short few seconds before looking back and out over the mountain peak.. Siren sound is heard to provide atmosphere. The GC reaches into his jacket pocket for something..
Fast energetic trumpet bleats are heard to provide the atmosphere - A low level rumbling of vehicle engines is heard - A high pitched trumpet sound is heard from a distance.. A revving of motor bikes is heard - A tremendous amount of sand dust is generated from the vehicles wheels which emits from behind..
Vehicles are slow moving as they continue to intimidate and harass the settlers. Several vehicle fires rage at the front of the compound.. Cars that The Lord Humungus and his Marauder gang possess include, Chrysler Valient Charger 770, Various Sandrail buggy type vehicles, De Soto Firesweep, Ford Fairlane, Holden Monaro 1971, Ford Falcon 500, Kawasaki F5, Kawasaki Z 900, Kawasaki Z 1000, Yamaha XS 1100 E, Ford Falcon GT, Vehicles are slowly moving away from the compound as they retire for the night, Gasoline is scarce and The Lord Humungus will want to conserve fuel for another day.. Other vehicles drive off to the right of screen, Several more have circled the compound clockwise and are also disappearing from view..
Max and the GC are silent and motionless as they watch the vehicles drive away..
Two gang members wearing black leather outfits stand at the bottom of the mountain. A small fire burns next to each of the men as a guide for the vehicles.. A rumbling is heard - A siren is also heard
The GC continues to chew as he pulls a napkin from his jacket..The GC begins to wipe his mouth of any excess food from his lips using both hands..The Birdman pats his mouth multiple times in a circular motion..The GC lowers his hands as he scrunches the napkin, Birdman continues to look down towards the compund with interest..Soft violin chord is heard
Triumphant trumpet sound is heard - A thick grey smoke of dust and sand slowly wisps over the terrain, An eerie sight is now on show as no vehicles remain..Small fires continue to burn around the compound.. Oil pump continues to drill.
Some time has passed and it is now morning, Max and dogg are sleeping soundly and do not move, Birdman moves his feet and shoulders slightly as he attempts to sleep, All is quiet and only a very light wind is heard -
A low level whizzing of the bus engine is heard as it slowly opens.. The daily morning run is now in operation as brave settlers risk there lives to bring back supplies and anything else they can find..
A small amount of sand dust is seen coming from the back of the yellow school bus, More rumbling sounds of vehicle engines are heard as two vehicles leave the compound and turn left..Incidentally the compound has two oil pumps that drill continously day and night..A settler is seen slowly walking across a high metal platform travelling to the right of the screen. Other settlers are seen moving around inside the complex..Wind is heard
The sound of the two vehicles leaving the compound has startled the dog who quickly wakes from his slumber. Dog stands up on his two feet as he turns his head and looks over and down at the compound. Engine sounds are heard - Max opens his eyes slightly but closes them again as he continues to rest..A small amount of sand dust sweeps over from the left..
The first two vehicles to leave the compound are considered decoy's as a third vehicle leaves the safety of the compound.. The first vehicle to leave circles the compound anti clockwise, The second vehicle disappears from view to the right of screen. The third vehicle continues in a straight line without turning in any direction.
Dogg blinks several times as he twitches slightly while continuing to look below, A loud siren is heard which has now caught the attention of Max.. Dogg lowers his paws as he rests closer to the ground, Max is still sleepy as he quickly leans up so that he can get a good look at the situation below. (Camera pans up) Max holds his shotgun in his left hand which he raises up slightly. Max wipes his nose with the same hand he holds his shotgun with. Max scrunches his face for a fleeting second as he attempts to understand what exactly is going on..
The second vehicle to leave the compound continues it's journey right of screen, Roughly 12 Marauder vehicles have gathered together a few hundred yards from the compound..The pink coloured car in the middle is a De Soto Firesweep, Various custom made Sandrails are also visible.. The Pink De Soto Firesweep quickly moves off as it produces a circular movement as it begins it chase..A large truck with 6 wheels driven by Lord Humungus moves off from the right of screen, Two motor bikes speed off towards the escaping car that came from the compound..The rest of the vehicles turn clockwise and chase after the brave settlers vehicle..The escaping settlers vehicle begins to career left as the driver attempts to escape..Other Marauder vehicles stationed to the other side of the compound begin to move off. One vehicle turns anti clockwise that was stationed in the middle of the pack..
Max turns his head right as he becomes more and more engrossed in the situation. )No sound score - Rumbling of engines from a distance is heard.
Two motor bikes One Sandrail and a pink coloured car De Soto Firesweep travels forward at speed. Another car quickly appears as it turns in towards the dusty road..The pink vehicle jumps several times up and down leaving the ground as it speeds along.
Max looks back left as he focuses on the compound entrance.. The Marauder gang's vehicles continue to chase the third vehicle to leave the compound.. A slow moving vehicle travels right, Two vehicles are seen in the distance traveling towards the compound from the right of screen..The camera quickly pans into the compound as yet another vehicle leaves bringing the total to four..This vehicle quickly turns right as it veers across the desert terrain in an attempt to evade the Marauder gang.. The other vehicles are decoy's to allow others to leave the compound with a better chance of success. A motorbike and a Sandrail race across the terrain from a distance traveling left across the screen. A third vehicle is visible travelling up towards the top of the screen.
Max has now set his sights on the fourth vehicle to leave the compound..Birdman begins to wake up from the engine noises as he raises his head up slightly..
Deep slow somber violin notes are heard - The fourth vehicle continues it's journey as it disappears around the mountain side..
The camera quickly pans left, Max is concerned for the lone vehicle as he quickly stands to his feet. Max snatches his binoculars with his left hand as he quickly walks off left to establish a better view point.
Dogg seems to be on better terms with the GC as he greets him while wagging his tail. The GC looks over and across the way in the direction Max was looking just a few seconds earlier..The dark violin sound repeats every 6 notes..Dogg turns anti clockwise as he walks a few steps forward then continues to turn around. The GC gets to his feet still in a hunched position, Max quickly runs over to the other side of the peak, Hopefully he will spot the fourth vehicle..Max steps over a large fallen tree trunk before disapearing from view.. (Squeaking sound is heard)
The GC raises his hands up slightly as he turns to follow Max, Dogg wags his tail as he stands motionless behind the birdman..
The lone fourth vehicle can be seen nearing a dirt road at speed. The vehicle turns as it travels up the road to the left..,
Max has spotted the fourth vehicle as he quickly lowers himself down against a large rock.. Dogg is just behind.
The repeating violin notes slowly increase with speed to provide atmosphere and suspense..To the horror of Max and the driver of the vehicle a pack of Marauders on Motor bikes suddenly appear at speed.
A biker travelling considerably faster than the others whistles past two other bikers passing them from the middle.. All four bikers reach the dusty road as the biker that was traveling faster than the rest quickly catches up with the Sandrail vehicle.. A high pitched pinging sound is heard - Trumpets bleat - Max sticks his tongue out slightly for a short moment as he slowly raises his binoculars to his face. Max squints as he scopes the situation..
The driver of the Sandrail vehicle instantly loses control after being shot with a spear gun, The vehicle rapidly rolls over before bouncing several times before coming to a stop in the middle of the road. Dark plumes of a thick orange dust are henerated as the vehicle rolls and breaks down.. A wheel breaks off from the undercarriage before bouncing at speed down the road..
A wheel breaks off from the undercarriage before bouncing at speed down the road travelling left. The driver must be seriously injured and has been caught by the dangerous gang..
Max continues to look through his binoculars.
A container box rests on the road having fallen off the vehicle, Some movement is seen inside the sandrail vehicle. Wez and his sidekick "The Golden Youth" quickly appear on his powerful motorbike Yamaha XS 1100 E. ..Performance. In a 1978 test by Cycle World a stock XS1100 ran a quarter mile time of 11.78 s 1/4 mile @114.21 mph (183.8 km/h) with a top speed of 135 mph (217.3 km/h). A purple truck quickly passes by with a Marauder hanging onto the back..A wire opening raises up on the sandrail as the injured occupant slowly exit's from a wire grill....The bikes have stopped and are interested in looting anything of value..
A rattling of chains is heard as the GC limps forward in an attempt to get in on the action..The GC swings his right hand out slightly as he stands motionless.. Max squints as he struggles to focus the binoculars, Max takes his left hand away from the binoculars for a fleeting moment as he adjusts the focusing wheel..
The Golden Youth raises up a long baseball bat type of weapon, Wez climbs off his bike and rapidly makes his way over to the injured settler.. A female settler who is in slightly better shape attempts to escape from the dangerous gang members.. The female settler pushes up with her hands as she lifts out her left then right legs from the metal grilled roof hatch. The female settler drops down to the ground and instantly turns facing down towards the back of the Sandrail vehicle. Trumpets bleat again - Rumbling of engines is heard - The driver of the vehicle has not moved and is either dead or in serious pain. Wez quickly snatches the helmet the driver was wearing off from his head and throws it to the ground below. (The helmet rolls several times before coming to a stop) A marauder biker pulls up behind the sandrail then gets off his bike, Two more come forward as the first one grabs the female settler from behind. The second marauder in black jumps up onto the front of the Sandrail.. The Golden Youth transfers the bat to his left hand as he lowers it to the floor,
The GC hunches his back slightly as he searches in his trenchcoat jacket for something..Birdman gyrates as he pulls out a collapsed telescope with his right hand..Birdman transfers the telescope to his left hand before pulling the thinner back piece with his right hand extending it..Birdman places his right hand further up the telescope as he tilts it before looking back out over the peak, Birdman extends it to full capacity using his right hand. Birdman uses his left hand to pull up and extend it on the thinner end. Birdman slides his right hand up and down to ensure the telescope has reached maximum capacity..Birdman quickly raises the telescope to his right eye as he holds it steady using both hands..Dogg looks up at the telescope is fasinated somewhat.. Dogg watches the GC retrieve the telescope, Max lowers his binoculars slightly as he grimaces, Max places the binoculars back to his eyes. Max adjusts the focusing wheel again, Max looks down at his binoculars for a fleeting second twists the focusing wheel, Looks back into binoculars..Fast violin chords are heard - Somber trumpet notes also.. (Snare drums are heard for a few beats..
From the perspective of the GC's telecope - Camera pans left, The distraught and very frightened female settler is seen attempting to flee her captors.. The female settler runs past the purple truck as her clothing flails in the cool breeze. Birdman continues to follow her with his telescope going left..(A loud scream is heard from the female settler) Two marauders grab the woman from behind in a rough and robust way..The woman continues to scream for her life as she collapses to the dusty floor below..
Trumpets bleat - The camera pans in onto Max and the birdman, Dogg looks back onto the disturbing scenes below, The GC closes one eye as he focuses his telescope onto the terrible scenes, Max suddenly lowers his binoculars and looks up at the long telescope that is towering over his head, Max twitches at the sight of the magnificent time piece,
Max turns his head as he follows the length of the telescope back to the GC, Max moves his hands slightly as he raises his left hand up and onto the birdmans prized possession.. Max looks birdman directly in the eye as he grips the telescope tightly, Max quickly takes the telescope away from the GC as he hands him the binoculars with his right hand. Max looks away as he does the swap, The GC looks down at the binoculars for a short moment. Max quickly raises the telescope to his right eye as he sticks his tongue out slightly, Max jerks slightly from the weight of the telescope. The GC stares out over the peak with fear and disatisfaction on his face. Max closes his left eye, Dogg whines a high pitched squeak as he jumps up at the telescope..The GC places the binoculars to his eyes..
The female settler has seen better days as she is physically attacked by the dangerous gang, The settler flaps her arms out as she struggles to keep the deadly members away from her..The woman grimaces with pain as she is thrown around like a rag doll..(Scream is heard) A tall marauder wearing a black mask holds the woman from behind as he exerts full control over her..The woman shakes her head violently from side to side as her hair flails in all directions.. The marauder in black quickly places immense pressure onto the woman as she is pushed to the floor..
Somber violins continue - High pitched trumpet notes are heard - Max opens his eyes and contorts at the terrible scenes he has witnessed..Max moves the telescope slightly right as he continues to watch the sick show..
Max has a birds eye view of The Golden Youth who is Wez's boyfriend..The Golden Youth looks up to Wez before looking down at a spear gun that is attached to Wez's left arm.. Wez want's to teach The Golden Youth how to use the deadly spear gun so that he can also be a competent killer on future runs.. Wez holds onto a sharp silver spear for a short moment before placing his right hand onto the handel of the weapon. Wez slowly turns anti clockwise a quarter movement before taking a few steps forward. Wez keeps his eye on his victim,
Wez turns fully so that he now faces his victim head on, Max quickly focuses the telescope right and onto the victim who was also the driver of the crashed vehicle.. The marauders have managed to pull the injured man from the drivers seat and he now rests outside of the sandrail vehicle. The marauders hold him steady with there hands so that his chest is exposed.. Suddenly the injured settler retorts and groans with intense pain as a spear rapidly shoots into his right side chest.. Wez has done his duty and fired a spear into the enemy that he hates so much..The marauder's continue to grip the drivers head and torso to maximise his suffering..
Max blinks and his face retorts from the terrible scenes, Suddenly a loud scream from the female settler is heard which causes Max to instantly move the telescope left slightly so he can scope the situation.
Two marauders wearing black masks violently toss the female settler around like a punch bag, The woman grimaces and screams but is to no avail, The gang members take a bow from the settlers possession as she pleads for her life..The woman is shaken up and down by the strong muscle men each holding the head and the legs of the victim..
The settler will not escape the clutches of the Lord Humungus and his killer gang members..
Both Max and the GC are transfixed on the scenes below them, The camera slowly pans in onto the birdman as he scopes the torture and mayhem.. Fast violin notes are heard - Somber trumpets are heard - The GC is fully engrossed but is now feeling the sorrow and discusting scenes of hate nad greed. Birdmans mouth suddenly closes as he becomes distressed and extremely concerned...
The two marauders have not finished with the woman as they begin to rip her clothes off..The woman screams as she gyrates violently, (Marauder rips the settlers yellow top off from her) A marauder from behind her places his left hand onto the settlers left exposed breast before roughly grabbing her from behind her neck. A marauder who is resting on the floor attempts to pull down the trousers of the victim.. The woman tussles from left to right as she struggles with all her might..
The GC is shell shocked as he slowly opens his mouth flabberghasted at the scenes he is witnessing..High pitched violin composition provides a sad sense of emotion,..
The two marauders force the female settler to the dusty floor, Three other marauders stand around the purple truck and are completely oblivious to the woman's turmoil..Woman screams again..
The GC continues to be shocked but is also powerless to put the binoculars down.. The GC suddenly lowers the binoculars but quickly places them back to his eyes.. (Twitches fingers)
A marauder in a black suit rapidly jumps from the purple truck, as he lands he loses his footing and falls down onto the ground below only having his hands to support him. The marauder shakes his hands rapidly as he quickly stands back to his feet. The marauder runs a few feet before leaning down and picking up a full sized crossbow from the floor. The marauder turns anti clockwise as he runs back to the purple truck.. A marauder wearing a black leather outfit sits on top of the female settler as he places pressure onto her neck and head with his hands. The marauder slaps the woman around the right cheek before continuing to strangle her to death.. Wez stands behind the legs of the woman for a few moments before running off and towards his motorbike and The Golden Youth who is sat on the back waiting.. The Golden Youth holds a baseball bat in his right hand raised up, he quickly lowers it down as Wez approaches. The second marauder who is sat on the legs of the woman also gets up and steps away..
The marauder sat on the legs of the female settler has a green punk hair style, He quickly runs around Wez and the Golden Youth as he approaches his motor bike..He raises his hands to his shoulders briefly.. The sound of motor bike engines starting up is heard.. Wez lifts his right leg over his bike as he sits onto the seat..
Max flinches as he moves the telescope slightly right to focus on Wez.. Wez and the Golden Youth quickly make there escape as they leave the area.. Max follows Wez and his bike with the telescope..The Golden Youth looks to his right briefly.. The Golden Youth's hair bristles in the cool breeze..
The Golden Youth holds a baseball bat behind him with his right hand..Max scopes Wez for as long as his telescope can focus.. The sound of changing gears is heard as Wez makes his escape having become bored of the situation.
Max's facial features are strained as he struggles to keep a clear focus, Max slowly turns the telescope left..
Deep trumpet notes and fast violin provides the atmosphere, Max watches as the dangerous gang of bikers slowly disappear into the distance.
Max quickly lowers the telescope down as he contemplates the actions he may need to take, Max stands up as he looks down over the peak, Max turns to his right and once again raises th etelescope to his right eye.. The GC continues to look through the binoculars..
A blurry image is seen as Max rapidly scans the distance for any information, Max homes in on the compound run by the settlers, Max can see a settler sat down to the left next to a large flame thrower unit. Another settler can be seen on the other side of the gate, Max scopes out some more as he looks right, Blurry image is seen - Max is confident the bandits have gone...
Max slowly pulls the telescope away from the rock before transferring it to his left hand and then lowering it down..Max turns around anti clockwise as he faces the GC, Max gives the telescope back to the GC as he begins to make his way over to his V8 Interceptor.. The GC looks down for a fleeting moment before taking the telescope back. The GC takes a few steps forward before looking into the telescope..(Fast and dramatic orchestral music is heard) Max runs back to his vehicle which has been covered with a net, Max raises his right hand out for a split second in an up and down motion as he traverses the rocks and soft sand.. Max reaches his car and places both hands onto the net. Max begins to pull the net off from his car..
The GC instantly focuses back to the female settler, To his horror a Marauder is resting on top of her and is in the act of raping the distraught woman....
The GC scopes right and up slightly as he focuses on the driver of the sandrail who has been shot with a spear gun..The male settler rests against a tire and is motionless..
The loud sound of an engine starting startles the birdman as he instantly looks behind himself in an anti clockwise movement.. Max has started the engine of the V8 Interceptor and has a plan firmly in mind.. The GC watches as Max revs his engine several times in quick succession before driving down the steep mountain peak..Violin slashing sounds are heard - The GC slowly turns his head back around as he also contemplates on the situation.. The GC quickly resorts back to the telescope for more information and to keep check on Max..
The image blurs left to right as the GC focuses on his subject.. The GC can clearly see the female settler lying on the hot sand with her eyes closed. She suddenly lowers her raised left hand towards her chest region as she turns her head right.. Her clothes have been torn from her body and she is badly bruised..
The GC is very concerned for the woman as he scopes the telescope left, To the birdmans horror he can now see a marauder closing in on the settler.. The marauder holds a powerful crossbow up in the air with his right hand,
Fast violin notes are heard - The marauder stands next to the woman as he slowly lowers the crossbow in an act of murder..
The marauder continues to lower the crossbow until it is pointing directly towards the woman.. Suddenly the crossbow springs to life as a fast and deadly arrow explodes out from the flight groove..
The GC is completely taken back and shocked after witnessing the senseless murder, The GC's eyes widen with intensity, The GC can look no more as he tilts the telescope up and away from his face..
The GC stares into outer space as his mind ponders the terrible scene he has just witnessed..
The GC slowly looks down and away from the view as his heart sinks...Blinks, continues to turn his head slowly anti clockwise..The GC lowers his telescope down as he lowers his head down unable to look out anymore at the horror below him..
Max has made his way down to the bottom of the peak as he investigates the serious situation.. The female settler has died and rests on the sandy floor having been raped strangled and shot with a cross bow..(A large arrow sticks out of the settlers stomach area) Max is silent as he creeps past the dead woman while carrying a large red bolt cutter which he got from his car's inventory..
No sound score all is quiet - A low level breeze is heard - Max is extremely quiet as to not alert the dangerous bandit of his presence..
The murdering marauder has chosen to stick around as he adjusts his left side shin cover..The marauder produces a light and satisfied whistling sound as he goes about his daily business. The marauder holds onto the left shin guard with his right hand as he places a silver metal fastener into the knee element of the guard.. The bandit is completely oblivious to Max being just a few steps away. A sound of metal is heard - Wind is heard - The camera quickly pans into the marauder at speed..Suddenly the bandit gets a whiff that something is not right as he looks up and directly at Max..
Max steps forward silent and not in the best of moods having witnessed the female settlers murder up close..A deep oboe sounding instrument is heard producing a singular and continued note.. Max's hair gyrates in the cool breeze as he looks down at the murdering gang member. Max takes his time and does not strike the gang member immediately.
The gang member is silent and does not seem to startled to see Max staring down at him, The marauder blinks before slowly producing a wide smile of dominance and surprise..Marauder blinks several more times in quick succession..
Suddenly the bandit makes his move as he reaches over for his deadly cross bow weapon.. A loud snapping sound of metal is heard as Max rapidly stamps on the marauders hand to stop him from using the cross bow to a deadly fashion..
The bandit grimaces as he looks up to Max unable to attack, Max uses the moment to knock out the marauder in spectacular fashion. Max swings back with speed as he smashes the bolt cutters into the head of the bandit at super sonic speed.
The bandit grimaces with a wide open mouth as he feels the full force of the heavy metal tool. A loud thump is heard infused with the sound of the marauder as he gets whacked. The marauder jerks forward and then falls backwards having been knocked out. The marauder sticks his tongue out but has been taken care of..A thud is heard as the bandit collapses onto his back..Max raises up the red bolt cutters as he looks down at the dangerous gang member just to be sure he won't be getting up any time soon..Max lowers the wrench as he looks over towards the severely injured driver of the Sandrail which crashed earlier on.. Max begins to walk over to the sandrail vehicle..Orchestra begins to provide atmosphere..
A low level rattling of metal is heard from Max's attire as he reaches the injured settler. The settler is still alive as he slightly turns his head in appreciation of the sight of Max..Max quickly bends down and begins to pull some rope from the ankle of the settler that has been wrapped around. The rope string easily releases as Max pulls using a left to right hand motion..The settler breathes deep as he closes his eyes, Max quickly ties the loose string around the settlers left and injured leg as a makeshift tourniquet and to slow the loss of blood. The injured settler breathes out and say's softly, "Thankyou".. as Max applies the tourniquet..Max ties a knot in the string and pulls it tight around the injured man's leg. The settler grimaces from the sudden pain as he say's again, "Thankyou, Thankyou...The settler raises his left arm out and touches Max's left knee as he groans with agonising pain.. Low level synthesizer chord provides atmosphere..
Max quickly looks to the injured settler as he say's "Save it." Max does not want a speech but some Gasoline..Max grabs the left arm of the settler with both hands as he edges forward bringing in a personal element..Max speaks clearly, "I'm just here for the Gasoline."
The settler breathes heavily as he turns his head away from Max having virtually no energy from the terrible attack, Max reaches out and softly holds the chin of the man with his left hand. Max would like some reasurance before he can help this man, The settler speaks with an extreme effort, "Yes Yes"..Max squeezes the chin of the settler as his fingers twitch around his lower chin area.
The settlers head flops back towards Max, The mouth of the settler hangs loose and almost floppy, The settler opens his eyes and looks into the eyes of Max as he shakes his head positively while breathing heavily.. Max nods forward at the settler in a reasuring way as he pushes him for reasurance..
The settler speaks, "As much as you like." Settler breathes out heavily again a few quick breaths, "Settler speaks, "Just, Just take me back there." referring to the compound he came from..
Max takes hold of the left arm of the settler with both of his hands as he carefully pulls him free from the tire of the Sand rail vehicle.. The settler has been shot two times with a spear gun and has been pinned to the vehicle..(Blast of trumpet is heard) The settler grimaces as he rapidly jerks forward having been released by Max..
Max looks down and retrieves the red bolt cutters from the ground just below, Looks back to the settler for a split second, A squeak is heard as Max begins to open the bolt cutters using both hands..Max quickly lifts the bolt cutters up as he slices through one of the arrows sticking out of the back of the settler. )Max retorts as he places pressure down onto the bolt cutters) The settler grimaces from the severe pain..
A small amount of time has passed and Max has managed to free the settler from his predicament, Max carefully places the injured man into the backseat of his V8 Interceptor as he makes his way towards the compound.. No marauders can be seen and Max has chosen a good time to reach the compound without being attacked.. Max drives at a constant pace as the vehicle bounces up and down slightly from the gradients in the sandy road..
The camera slowly pans right, Suddenly a young boy appears from a hole in the ground, This feral child stares at the car as it travels along the road..The feral kid holds a sharp and bladed boomerang in his left hand..The child's hair blisters in the breeze, The boy holds up the boomerang in his left hand as he turns slightly while following the cars movements.. A light rumbling of the vehicle's engine is heard - A fast violin chord is heard for a few notes in quick succession.. A grey smoke bellows from the right.. The child uses a reinforced glove so that he can handle the boomerang without being cut..
A swirling sound of wind is heard - Max has reached the entrance to the compound as he slowly comes to a stop..A group of settlers are standing on a metal walkway inside the compound looking out towards Max, others guard a large flame thrower unit one on each side of the gate..
Nathan groans with pain, (Trumpets bleat) Synthesizer chord is heard - Max turns his head and looks at the injured settler for a fleeting moment..The settler called Nathan is still alive as he rests in the back seat, Nathan turns his head right slightly as his mouth opens..

A settler called Big Rebecca who is very close to Nathan begins to become emotional from the situation.. Big Rebecca shouts out with turmoil, "Nathan!, Nathan!, it's Nathan!.." A thick leather belt and Max's tools sway from the motion..
A settler called Zetta shouts out to his close knit members, "Hurry up and get the stretcher!". Pappagallo shouts out, "Lose them" to indicate Max should eliminate his weapons for safety purposes.. As Max continues to turn around he drops the heavy belt and tools to the floor below.. A loud ting sound of metal is heard as the heavy load hits the deck..

Max turns and looks at the warrior woman who is not in the best of moods, Big Rebecca shouts out with anger, "You and your handy work."
Big Rebecca screams with furious frustration, (Big Rebecca slams her hand down towards Nathan as she emphazises her words, "He didn't stand a chance!".
Big Rebecca will now be shortened to (BR). BR clings to the side of the stretcher with both hands as it is hoisted up.. BR looks at the face of Nathan as she stands and follows the moving stretcher..
Curmudgeon shouts out, "Oh, I warned him, You all heard me, Curmudgeon raises his left arm up into the air as he say's "Madness, "I said." Two settlers are slowly walking out from the entrance to the left of screen..
Nathan is carried back into the compound as BR follows closely..
Max begins to slowly walk forward towards the entrance of the compound, The warrior woman will now be shortened to (WW). Curmudgeon continues to shout out, "We can escape, take our gas, from you, "How?, I said". Max looks from left to right, (WW) keeps her crossbow to the back of Max.. The Feral kid walks by the side of the (WW) Max blinks looks up further as he spots Pappagallo standing next to a flame thrower.. (Trumpets bleat)
Pappagallo is the leader of the settler group, Pappagallo stares down at Max with a suspicious mind, Pappagallo is feeling under pressure as he stresses his fingers with an in and out motion.. Zetta is heard speaking to another settler, "Get that machine inside." Zetta is referring to Max's V8 Interceptor.. Another settler shouts out, "Charlie, help me."
Pappagallo suddenly turns his head right as he shouts out, "Derek?". Pappagallo places his left hand into a fist as he steps away from the flame thrower allowing Derek to pass and take over the deadly weapon of heat and flame. Pappagallo steps down as Derek takes over..(Lots of noise is heard from the settlers)
Curmudgeon continues to shout, "Bloody hell". Five settlers surround Nathan and the stretcher as they tend to his needs..(BR walks around the stretcher clockwise still very distraught.. The stretcher wobbles slightly as it is placed over a wooden table..
Nathan shakes slightly as his weight is transferred to the table.. The Captains Girl is close by and is working hard to save the life of Nathan..
A settler quickly runs out of the entrance to the left of screen, Max continues to slowly walk into the compound, The Feral kid turns his head as he watches the settler leave the entrance, Dog is heard whining..
As Max gets further in he comes across The Mechanic, The mechanic has a sad expression on his face as he passes Max. The Mechanic raises his right hand to his throat before lifting his head up. The Mechanic is a paraplegic and uses a yellow steel frame to get around and carry out his work. He sits on a seat supported by strong leather straps..The Mechanics assistant pushes a bike at the back of the contraption to move it around. Paraplegia is a term used to describe the inability to voluntarily move the lower parts of the body. The areas of impaired mobility usually include the toes, feet, legs, and may or may not include the abdomen. Pappagallo shouts out, "Close the damned gate." A male settler is heard saying, "Mind your backs, Mind your backs, Coming through."
The red oil pump continues to turn as it drills for gasoline..A settler is seen walking away from the pump - The Mechanics assistant cycles past Max as he and the Mechanic attend to Max's V8 Interceptor.. The Mechanics assistant pushes the handlebars but does not actually cycle..Max looks up and all around but is silent..The (WW) steps around Max as she continues to keep her crossbow aimed at the scavenger.. Max turns to his right, (Sticks tongue out slightly for a few short seconds) Max looks further right as a male voice is heard..(Synthesizer effects are heard) Pappagallo appears from between some tires..
Dramatic violin notes are heard - A settler walks past the stretcher at speed, A settler to the left with white hair gentley lowers Nathans right hand down to the bottom of the stretcher. The Captains Girl touches her left chest with her left hand as she looks down for a fleeting moment. BR whimpers as she stands over Nathans head. (Jesus) BR suddenly raises up her hands at speed while closing her eyes and looking up as she feels the pain and frustration..The Captains Girl will now be shortened to (CG). The CG suddenly produces an air ventilator with her right hand, The CG holds the ventilator with both hands as she twists it around slightly, The CG places the ventilator over the mouth of Nathan and carefully begins to squeeze the green balloon in an effort to get air into Nathans lungs..(a SOUND OF FAST COMPRESSED AIR IS HEARD EACH TIME CG squeezes the balloon. BR whimpers over Nathan.. The man to the left with white hair tends to Nathans arrow wounds by using a white cloth to clean blood and other substances away.. BR flails her hands over Nathan as she stutters and whimpers.
Three settlers to the right of screen stand motionless, A settler called The Quiet Man walks forward with a concerned facial expression." A settler with a bow and arrow slowly steps around the quiet man from behind.. Zetta speaks, 'Alright, give him room, give him room."
The Quiet Man stares into a void of hell as his worst nightmares come true
Curmudgeon and Zetta surround Max as Pappagallo makes his way to him from the flame thrower position..Another settler female in appearance all in white appears from the left, Pappagallo walks past Max as he stares at him, Max looks at Pappagallo in silence,
More settlers appear with bows and arrows, Pappagallo speaks with concern, "Who are you?" Derek is seen running towards the flame thrower, Zetta slowly walks across to the left of screen, Pappagallo speaks again, "How did you get through out there?" Settlers swarm Max, Max blinks turns head slightly left..
The Quiet Man slowly approaches Pappagallo from behind, Pappagallo speaks again as he points his index finger towards Max, "Look, I want some answers."Quiet Man blinks twice in quick succession,
Pappagallo stares at Max as he points his hand back towards Nathan and say's, "Where did you find him?"
Max blinks and looks away from Pappagallo as he say's, "Two or Three miles down the road, left for dead, Max fleetingly looks over towards Nathan then back to Pappagallo, "We had a deal." Pappagallo lifts his head up slightly as he say's, "There were three other vehicles, Did you see anything of them?." WW sways from side to side, A settler to the back of Max tilts head down slightly, Max continues, Max points his left index finger behind him to express his words,
"Yeah, They're heading to the Southwest in heaps of trouble.." Max looks at Nathan and say's, "Look, Back to Pappagallo..
The Quiet Man steps forward a couple of short steps and has become very interested in the conversation between Max and Pappagallo.. The Quiet Man begins to blink continuosly as his mind explodes with the worst thoughts imaginable. Pappagallo fleetingly looks down at Max, Max continues, "He said, If I brought him back here, you'd give me some Gas.." Max continues, "Now there's not much time." The Quiet Man breaks into the conversation as he blinks multiple times in quick succession, (Pappagallo looks to the quiet man) The quiet man say's, There, there was a woman in the car."
Max becomes silent as he looks down unable to give an instant response, Max speaks, "She's dead", Max tilts his head slightly right as he breaks the news as best he can..(Settlers tighten there grip as they surround Max) (Dramatic trumpets are heard) (Sound of bows tightening is heard)
The Quiet Man is stunned to hear the bad news as he freezes on the spot, The Quiet man shakes his head and say's "No" in disbelief..Camera pans in to the quiet Man as he say's, "What did they do?" Pappagallo closes his eyes and looks down after hearing the terrible news..
Max speaks as he fleeting looks at the (WW) "It was quick!" Max sticks out his thumb and raises it up and over his right shoulder as he looks at Pappagallo and say's, 'Look"..."I just want my gas." (Looks at WW then Pappagallow) "I wanna get out of here."
Pappagallow looks up to Max, The Quiet Man is in shock as he slowly backs away from Max unable to take anymore.. WW speaks, "For all we know he's one of them, WW looks at Max then Pappagallow as she say's, "Give him nothing".
Curmudgeon speaks, "She's right, He's a parasite." The Quiet Man turns anti clockwise as he walks off into the distance.. WW continues, "Trading in Human flesh." WW gets a little closer to Max as she say's with hate, "Mercenary trash.' Trumpets play out -
WW looks back to Pappagallow as she waits for a reponse..
Max looks to WW for a fleeting second before raising his right hand and pushing the sharp blade WW holds to his neck away.. Max begins to walk forward as he say's, "We had an arrangement". Zetta keeps a rhythm with Max as he maintains walking speed with the scavenger, Zetta speaks out, "What do you mean?" an arrangement?." Max looks at Zetta as he points his hand over towards Nathan.. The settlers slowly follow Max, Max points over to Nathan as he say's to Pappagallo, "You talk to this man!"
Camera pans into Max and Pappagallo, BR is heard crying loudly, Both Max and Pappagallow stop in there tracks as they watch BR whimper over her close relative..
BR screams out, "No No, Try something Try something," Nathan has been seriously hurt and will not survive his injuries.. BR caresses the left bloodied ear of Nathan as he passes away..
BR is very distraught as Nathan dies on the stretcher, CG slowly looks up with a sad facial expression, CG looks to her right after feeling the stress of the moment.
CG looks down at another settler stood next to her, She emphasizes her sadness to this settler as he looks on in disbelief.BR squeezes her eyes tightly as she cries for her loss, CG looks to BR as she consolidates her with her arms..Trumpets bleat, Camera pans down, BR jerks her hands as she rests them on Nathan. Her fingers twitch as she slowly pulls them away from the dead man's shoulders..
Nathan has died and things are not looking good for Max, (Max avoids eye contact with Pappagallo as he looks down at the floor) Pappagallo speaks as he looks over at the corpse of Nathan, "If you had a contract, it was with him." Pappagallo looks to Max and say's, "And it died with him." Pappagallo looks back to Nathan as he quickly walks away from Max, Pappagallo say's, "Get rid of him" as he leaves Max to his own devices.. Pappagallo's hair blisters in the breeze..
WW quickly grabs the back of Max's head with her left hand as she say's "Move it" - Zetta shouts out "Come on" as he moves off at speed.
The Mechanic and his assistant have now retreived Max's V8 Interceptor from just outside the compound, The car is attached to a steel wire at the front and is being slowly pulled inside the complex..As we know the Mechanic is a paraplegic and uses a light weight aliminium frame to support himself. The Mechanic raises his right hand as he twirls his right index finger around. The mechanic shouts out loudly, "Left" as the car slowly moves forward.. (Trumpets bleat)
Curmudgeon and WW take hold of Max's left and right arms as he is pulled forward towards his vehicle..Curmudgeon begins to tussle with Max as the pair make contact for a short moment. The mechanic shouts out again, "Left". Max pushes Curmudgeon away as he continues to walk forward.. Dogg whines..
Max's vehicle rolls into the compound slowly before making a stop. Fast high pitched trumpets play for a short few notes - .(Chatter is heard) WW pushes Max's left shoulder but Max retaliates as he violently raises up his left hand to push the WW away.. Male voice, Come on"
Max looks to the Mechanic..
The mechanic has been busy on Max's car as he say's, "Gotta hand it to you, treasure, (A whirring is heard as the Mechanic slowly comes down from his pulley seat system) The mechanic speaks again, "The last of the V8 Interceptors.." The mechanic opens his eyes wide as is quite impressed with the car..
Settlers move around and behind Max, Max blinks, Mechanic speaks, "A piece of history." The feral kid appears from behind the V8 vehicle's trunk..
The mechanic suddenly produces a small silver box of electronic components, This box was underneath the car's undercarriage and has a red switch to activate an explosive device if the gas tanks are sabotaged..The mechanic twists the metal box gentley left to right in his left hand as he say's, "Would of been a shame to blow it up."
The mechanic outstretches his right arm and taps the back of the trunk with his hand several times in quick succession.
The tapping sound has startled Dogg who has now appeared from no where..Dogg growls and runs at speed towards the mechanic between the legs of the settlers.
The feral kid looks up at the mechanic, The dog has become very loud and aggressive as it attacks the leg of the mechanic..Dogg pulls at a brown cloth attached to the mechanics leg with speed..
Dogg tightens his grip and shakes at the leg of the mechanic,
The mechanic looks down at the dog and does not feel any pain as he tussles with the angry canine..
