[JOHN DOE] Twenty years ago, the world fell to sh*t.

A big ole apocalyptic dump.

Some bug took out all the world's computers.

Power grids down, the Internet gone!

And not having easily accessible p*rn freaked people the f*ck out!

So, cities put up walls to protect themselves and threw the criminals out into the chaos so they could fight over what was left, which was not much, mostly cars and g*ns.

Now insiders stay inside and outsiders stay outside.

But there are people who drive between, badasses, legends, humble m*therf*ckers like me delivering precious cargo from one walled city to another.

It's not an easy road because all these assholes want what I got.

And that's where the cars and the g*ns come in.

Hey there!

It's the milkman. It

must be our delivery.

Yeah, they know me.

I'm here all the time.

- Hey, Doug!

- Hey, John.

- He's new.

- A virgin?

Oh, I got a big package for you.

All the way from Paso Robles.

Some vultures wanted it real bad,

but not bad enough.

You know what I mean?

Hey, that better be

[ABNER] Payment's been

And we have new deliveries

for you to, um, deliver.

You're such a lamb. Where to?

Fresh batteries for the Gainsboro Colony

and the usual shipment of medicine

- to New San Francisco.

- New San Fran?

- It's been a month already?

- Um-hmm.

Time makes a fool of us all.

What's your name, slugger?

- Abner.

- Abner? Really?

I mean, it's a nice name,

but you don't meet too many

well, anyway. Come here, Abner.

How about you let me, uh, slip inside

- Outside you stay outside!

- Hey, take it easy. Relax!

Atta boy.

All right, this has been a gas.

I'll see your shiny faces in a month.

Until then, Abner, eat up! [SNORTS]

What'd the milkman bring us this time?

Tonight, we feast!

[JOHN DOE] See, a

milkman's job is never done.

It's a big world out there,

but at the end of the day

all that matters is me,

Evelyn, and the road.

[RAVEN] Hi, John.

I'm Raven, COO of New San Francisco.

Let me get you a drink.

So, tell me, what's

it like on the outside?

I'm sure you've got some stories.

Stories? Of course, I do.

Okay, how about this one?

Once upon a time there was a milkman.

Charming, devilishly

handsome, you know the type.

Well, he was an outsider.

Then one day a miracle happened.

[GASPING] He was invited inside.

For no reason other than to

have a beer with a mysterious,

mildly intimidating little white lady.

- Ta-da!

- Fair enough.

We get a lot of milkmen

coming around here.

Mm!

But none have come more than twice.

You, on the other hand,

have come dozens of times.

You're consistent, reliable,

you got a solid ass.

Boom!

- I want to hire you.

- To do what exactly?

What you do best.

Pick up a package, bring it back.

It can't be that simple.

Well, there are a few complications.

One, you can't know

what you're transporting.

Oh! Okay, I have a question.

- It's not organs.

- Dammit! It's never organs.

So, what's the second complication?

The package is in New Chicago.

[COUGHS, CHUCKLES]

Sorry, um, thanks for the beer.

- John, sit!

- No, look, I'm sorry.

New Chicago is too

far and it's too risky.

Sit!

Please.

Now, I've gotta tell you,

I've got a lot of power.

I can make peoples'

desires, their dreams,

their every wish come true.

So, John, what do you wish for?

Wow! Okay, I wasn't ready for that.

Um, well, hmm, um,

unlimited gas.

Mm-hmm.

A new tee shirt, this

one's kinda smelly.

Toilet paper.

would do for some two-ply.

I think I can do better.

Three-ply?

How about a tour?

That's what I get? A souvenir?

No, John, this is your prize.

If you go to New Chicago

and bring this package back for me,

I will make you a citizen

of New San Francisco.

I get to live here?

John, I remember when the

colonies closed themselves off,

when they threw the murderers

and thieves and bad guys

out into the world

to fend for themselves

without law and order.

But you, you don't belong out there.

You're not one of them.

Peekaboo.

Hi.

Bet you kids are wondering

why we pulled you over today.

I'm not sure what you think we

did, but-but we didn't hurt nobody.

I swear we're innocent.

Oh.

[LAUGHTER]

That's some fresh material right there.

You know, when I was a boy,

my father told me about a

police chief named Breton.

Have you ever heard of him?

- No, sir, but I

- Then stop talking.

It was rhetorical.

Well, this Police Chief

Breton, he cleaned up Manhattan,

which is a burrow of Old New York,

in case you don't know your geography.

But Chief Breton had a theory

that little sins could attract big sins.

And so, he would stamp

out those little sins

like a match before it ever caught fire.

And you know what? By jukie it worked.

Crime went down because he showed

no tolerance, no mercy,

not even for petty vandalism,

defecating in the park.

Gosh, not even looting.

He saved New York, and

I'm saving this country.

Now then, you two have a choice.

You and your lover

Sister, we-we have

the same mom and dad.

I know what a sister is.

As I was saying,

you and your sister have a choice.

You can resist, in which case,

I'll have to napalm the both of you.

Or one of you can make the tough choice.

Take your own life.

Consider it your punishment

for crimes committed against the law.

It means 2,132 miles of no cover.

No protection, no safe harbor.

The only shelter means dealing with

a bunch of brainwashed,

burger worshipping screwballs.

- I'm not that desperate.

- You might be.

The roads out east aren't

like the roads here.

You won't be dealing with

your run of the mill vultures.

These boys are predators.

Even the people trying

to bring the law back

are just as dangerous.

There's chaos out there, John.

You'll be dealing with it alone.

Is the risk worth the reward?

Oh
