## ***Summary***

### **Scenario 1**

**1992 June 21st, Belasco City, 2:17 PM**

It is a hot summer afternoon in Belasco City. Sebastian pulls out of his apartment to go on a vacation. A Dodge taxi drives down a hill followed by a Ford sedan. A dark blue Civetta Bolide exits a parking garage. A white Dansworth D2500 pulls out of a bus stop and turns right. A red Gavril T75 box truck starts backing out of an alleyway. Jeremy pulls out of his driveway and is worried that he is going to be late. The T75 bumps into a blue dumpster which rolls down the hill. Terry was waiting to cross the road humming to music. At 2:19 PM, Terry gets hit by the dumpster and knocked into the road. Jeremy swerves and ramps off the Bolide and crashes into the bus. The bus pushes the oncoming cars in front of it. Sebastian tries to get out of the way but his gearbox can't switch to reverse fast enough as his car is crushed against a tree by the bus.

The bus driver's foot was still on the accelerator causing the bus to keep on driving uncontrollably until it finally stalled. The bus driver had serious injuries and died later in the hospital. The passengers had minor injuries. Nearby drivers stopped at the crash to help the wounded. Terry suffered a broken arm and a head trauma. Jeremy survived with non-life threatening injuries. The taxi driver was released from the hospital the same day. The bus trapped Sebastian in his car. When he was finally free, it was too late as he was already gone. If Jeremy just went straight, he wouldn't have hit Terry. There was enough space to drive around him. This mistake will haunt him for the rest of his life. The truck driver who hit the trash container was later found by the police and is facing charges of unintentional homicide.

### **Scenario 2**

**2019 October 20th, Utah, 12:14 PM**

It is a hot day in Utah. A red and black Gavril T65 flatbed tow truck drops off a damaged green Roth Alpha and drives off. Tiffany thinks she's lost and turns left where she sees the freeway. A couple of fire department vehicles enter the tunnel as an H-Series RV and a white Gavril D15 Extended exit the tunnel. Russell, a truck driver hauling a tanker trailer, leaves the gas station. He passes by Inertia's Service Center as a cyan steel Dodge Viper SRT-10 ACR Custom enters the service center. Russell admires the cars as he passes. Ray drives through the tunnel. He tells someone on the phone that he will call him later because he is driving. Russell enters the freeway as Ray exits the tunnel. At 12:16 PM, Russell merges into the inner lane not knowing Ray was there and he swerved. Ray gets mad and pulls up ahead of Russell and brake checks him. Russell rear ends Ray and Ray rolls over into oncoming traffic. Tiffany and a yellow Ibishu Hopper crashes into Ray. Several drivers including a red ETK W-Series behind them crash into each other until the carnage settles down.

Brake checking a semi turned into a huge pileup in seconds. Russell was in a state of shock over what just happened. A few drivers managed to avoid a head on collision but others didn't. No one could help the yellow Hopper driver, he was already gone. The old man driving the W-Series died later in the hospital. Ray survived with a few broken bones. His road rage killed two innocent people.

### **Scenario 3**

**2020 March 5th, Hirochi Raceway, 4:15 PM**

It is a clear afternoon in Hirochi Raceway. Three rockcrawlers drive along the dirt track. Steven and Karen leave their house. Steven asks Karen if she locked the front door. Karen replies that she did. Steven asks if she locked the back door too. Karen says yes and that no one is going to rob their house because they don't have anything expensive. Steven relents and says that triple checking the doors before a trip is an old habit. They drive slowly which causes George to overtake them and yell at them to get off the road. Steven asks what George's problem is but Karen says to not worry about it as people nowadays are always in a hurry. Steven says he misses Bobby already. Karen jokes that if their five children can't take care of their dog, then they've failed as parents, which Steven agrees to. At the race track, several racers are racing along the track. Some in racecars, some in exotic supercars. Steven is driving to the place where he first met Karen. Karen is excited and says she's wanted to go back for so long. Steven replied that he is also excited as well. At the race track, a Dodge Viper race car slipstreams a Lamborghini SC18 Alston. The racers pass by the starting line to finish a lap. Steven and Karen pass by a car on a flat bed tow truck (which is revealed to be FrIzErIs' Charger). Karen says it looked like a racecar. Steven comments that he remembers a race is being held at a circuit nearby and the driver (FrIzErIs) won't make it. At the race track, the race announcer says that this is the last lap and every racer is determined to win. Steven and Karen drive along a road Steven doesn't recognize, and he thinks he missed the turn. The road they're on leads them onto the race track. At 4:26 PM, the racers in the front crash into Steven and Karen and push them into the tire wall. The racers in the middle lose control and crash into each other.

Many racers suffered various injuries but were ok thanks to the roll-cage and helmets. The nearby medics and firefighters rushed to the crash scene. Only three racers managed to avoid the chain reaction. Medics rushed Steven and Karen to the hospital but their injuries were too serious. They both died the same day and at the same time.

## ***Trivia***

* The Hellgang made a cameo appearance as most of the members were seen at Inertia's Service Center in the second scenario.
	+ Moreover the magnet truck that is later used in Derailed can be seen inside the garage, foreshadowing what will happen in the aforementioned episode.
* FrIzErIs makes a cameo appearance as his Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody was on a Gavril H45 flatbed tow truck in the third scenario. It is assumed that his car was being transported to participate in the race when the truck driver crashed into a pole.
* Scenario One is slightly anachronistic, as a few of the cars featured were released after 1992.
