DayTrippers

Ulla Vangelis – Leslie 
Reggie Carlisle – John (Beta)
Trae Mowaka- Jesse
Jack Nash – John (Prime)
GM- Tod Foley 

The year is 2122. The world is a war-torn hellscape. Far from her clan and scouting for useful wreckage in the Burnt, Ulla evades a trio of reconnaissance drones and heads toward the geothermal power plant, where she gets a weird nauseous feeling, and a Reality Fracture suddenly appears. Out of the vortex tumble Nash & Trae, whose last memory is being frozen in time on the deck of the Marduk while Reggie passed out and hit the ground. They literally crash into Ulla, who pulls them to the ground and tells them to be quiet.

She doesn't seem at all shocked to have discovered strangers from another dimension. "If people can disappear through these things," she figures, "it stands to reason they can also come out." Suddenly Nash & Trae hear Reggie laughing from nowhere, but they shake it off.

Taking them back to meet the clan Ulla introduces them to Kek, the local scrumblie matriarch, Dril, the mechanic and resident techie, and the rest of her friends. After a nice vegetarian dinner cooked by Kek and served by the kids Jake, Golli, & Cha-cha, they get word that a new drone squadron has been sent out from the city. Kek knows who they're looking for -- it's Ulla. She assigns Nash and Trae to serve as "soldiers" and sends the three of them out to handle the drone situation.  "Don't let them find this place," she tells Ulla. "I don't want to kick you out."

The trio finds a good spot for an ambush and grabs some useful gear from a rusted police car.

DayTrippers (Season 4 Episode 1-1) With a Little Help From My Friends

Jack Nash – John

Benjamin T. Fitch – Vince

Charles (Chip) Parsons - Jesse

Our story begins at a seedy bar called King Cobras. Friends and brothers at arms Benjamin T Fitch and Jack Nash are at their usual table. Tonight however, they are joined by Charles “Chip” Parsons, former child actor who is shadowing Ben in preparation for a new movie role. As Ben holds court, regaling Chip with tales of daring do, Nash stares pensively into the middle distance lost in thought.

Right at the penultimate moment of one of Ben’s stories his phone rings. Taking a quick look he sees it’s the pair’s fixer Lithium and takes the call. Lithium, it seems, has found the perfect job for Ben and Nash. Inguy Cordoba, CEO of Somnambula Inc and creator of the Dream Deck dream recorder is looking for a slip crew to take on a mission to a dream world.

Cordoba is looking to move quickly so he has provided a ship and pay upfront. The job is to download the contents of a mainframe contained at a small compound in this particular dream world. Nash expresses a little concern but perpetually short on cash they agree to take the job. With Chip in tow the party sets out to Diaspora Ranch to check out the ship named Tiny Tyrant.

While Ben gives the Tiny Tyrant the once over, Chip notices a large, white slip ship that seems to have just returned from a run. As he watches the ship the ramp lowers and out saunters Silla Sardasian and her retinue surrounded by tiny hover cams. Never one to miss an opportunity Chip makes a beeline for Silla to try and get his foot in the door.

Quite the smooth talker Chip returns to the Tiny Tyrant flush with his perceived success.   Completely nonplussed by the situation Nash grunts monosyllabically before asking Ben if the ship checks out.   Ben gives his stamp of approval and they enter the ship to begin pre-slip preparation.

The ships onboard computer, Tyro, seems to have a clipped military bearing, which puts Nash somewhat at ease. With ruthless efficiency Tyro clears each system for launch as the crew straps in. When the countdown hits zero the Tiny Tyrant slips through time/space winking out of existence on home Earth. Next stop the Dream World.

DayTrippers (Season 1 Episode 1-1) Dream Job

When reality reasserts itself Jack, Ben and Chip find themselves in what appears to be a football field. Making a quick assessment they decide to do a low flyby perimeter check. An environmental scan shows an earthlike atmosphere and movement is noted in some of the buildings. As they pass by a garden area Chip swears that he sees the flowers get up and walk into new rows. Completing the circuit they begin to garner more attention from the locals so they land the Tiny Tyrant off campus in the woods.

As the ship lands all of the flowers and trees visibly turn to “look” at it. Jack and Ben are in their environmental suits but Chip notes that the air smells like Lady Ego perfume. Ben takes a sample of the dirt and runs a spectroanalysis on it. While waiting for the results the ground “heals” itself.

Moving in towards the campus Ben and Chip are challenged by what can only be described as rectangle people. Jack stays hidden on overwatch.   Chip pretends to be a student and the rectangle people send them to the admin building to register but not before threatening Ben who copped a flippant attitude.

Ben and Chip head inside the admin building while Jack waits outside to keep watch. They ring the bell and two hairy rectangle men pop up spewing all sort of technical jargon while thrusting forms at them. As soon as they sign the forms the room instantly changes into a maze of hallways and Chip has a bit of a breakdown. Ben slaps him bringing him out of his reverie.

Jack is hearing all of the confusion through his com and he starts to dissociate and have flashbacks when he hears a voice say “You’ll be fine.” Confused, he looks down to see a small flower with a woman’s face standing on its roots. It’s at this point the party looses Jack.

Unable to raise Jack on the com, Ben gets Chip moving to go and look for the mainframe while he goes to check on Jack.

Daytrippers (Season 1 Episode 1-2) Dream Job

As Ben bursts through the door he notices that the sky darkens and seems to almost recoil from his presence.  Nash wrestles with his feelings of inadequacy but is able to pull himself back from the brink.  With a new found sense of purpose Nash and Ben head back into the Admin building to go and get Chip.  While they’re running in a virtual army of flowers moves to surround the building.

Meanwhile Chip is desperately trying to find a place to plug in the thumb drive.  On a lark he asks out loud if there’s anyone around to help.  Surprisingly or not, one of the square, hairy guys pops up and shows Chip to a workstation.  Of course Chip doesn’t really know what he’s looking for……

Ben and Nash burst into the server room and Nash shoots at the hairy guy who moves to block the door.  A wild melee ensues and the server room catches on fire.  Chip waits painfully for the data to download on to the thumb drive and he begins to smell smoke.

With two of the creatures down and the data downloaded the team makes a break for it.  Chip looses his phone and has to go back for it just as Ben and Nash make it outside.  Now all of the flowers have Suzie’s face.  Nash is torn but is able to keep his shit together.  Just then Chip bursts through the door.  With Ben on one side and Nash on the other, they use the jump jets in their suits to jump over the flowers. 

Ben calls to Tyro for an evac but before the ship gets there a giant baby begins to lumber towards them.  Nash sees that the baby has his eyes and Suzie’s lips and he looses it……again.

The flowers sway and chant, “Don’t leave us.” as Nash fights against Ben to stay.  While they’re fighting Chip runs up into the ship.  Ben and Nash continue to struggle on the ramp as Tyro closes the door.  As the ship begins to ascend they are thrown around and bashed against the bulkhead.  This finally snaps Nash out of it and they get strapped in to make the jump.  

Ben successfully programs the jump back to Earth Prime.  Lithium is waiting for them and as they exit the ship Nash knocks him out and walks away.  Ben has Tyro make a copy of the thumb drive.  
 
The next day they meet Lithium at the King Cobra and hand over the drive.  Lithium in turn gives them a gift from their employer of 3 dream decks so that if they wanted to they could dream the mission all over again.

Daytrippers (Season 1 Episode 1-3)Dream Job

Jack Nash – John
Benjamin T. Fitch – Vince
Charles (Chip) Parsons - Jesse
GM- Tod Foley

Since the last mission Nash was in a haze, ultimately coming to the edge of suicide.  As he returns from the brink and starts to pick up the pieces he notices that Suzie, normally very bright and perky, isn’t her normal self.  He meets with Fitch to talk things over.  They decide to head over to their ship, the Tiny Tyrant, and see if Tyro, the ships computer, can interpret the data they stole from the dream world.

Chip has been nowhere to be found.  After his run in with Silia Sardacian he’s resurrected his television career.   

Tyro suggests just wearing a Dream deck and watching the data that was collected, which turns out was just dreams that had been recorded.  Fitch runs home to grab the Dream deck that he was given and comes back to the ship.  Nash is unwilling to wear the device so Fitch agrees to check it out.  The data that was stolen was Suzie’s dreams and to make things worse Fitch sees themselves in one of the dreams as they were on the mission.  There is a great sense of loss or heartbreak in her dreams.

Nash thinks that maybe Dr. Inguay Cordoba is targeting Suzie since he provided the coordinates for their last mission and it was her dreams that were “stolen”.  As they head back to town Nash and Fitch do some research into Dr. Martez and Dr. Cordoba.  Cordoba’s company Somnambula Inc has recently created a deep learning AI that they are using to search dream data.  Data being provided by tens of thousands of Dream decks.   They didn’t turn up anything on Dr. Martez or Suzie.  

Fitch calls Lithium to set up a meet, hoping to get some new information.  They meet at the King Cobra and after a tense moment Lithium sends Nash the bill for his reconstructive surgery.  With that business settled they turn their attention to Cordoba.  

Lithium informs them that there have been a series of shots at different dream worlds all from the same client.  Presumably Cordoba.  The Dream decks are sensors collecting massive amounts of data and the AI is searching for patterns.  It seems they found a match in Suzie.  All of this has something to do with Slip Space and as all of this is processing, Nash realizes that his group is responsible for Suzie’s feelings of loss in her dreams as they “broke in and stole her heart”.
 
Lithium takes his leave and Nash and Fitch leave to go to Suzie’s place.

There’s no answer at Suzie’s when Nash rings the bell so Fitch decides to just walk in.  Suzie is sitting on the couch and looks wasted.  When she sees them she asks who they are and where she is.  After a few minutes she snaps back to reality telling Nash she has a paper due but slowly fades out again.  

While she’s out Nash grabs the Dream deck, which doesn’t have any immediate effects.  Nash and Fitch decide to take her up to school and see what they might be able to suss out.  All of the students in Suzie’s psyche class appear to be normal, confirming Lithium’s pronouncement that Suzie was a match.  Suzie remains out if it so Nash sets up a meeting with Dr. Martez for after class and they run Suzie back home.  

During their meeting with Dr. Martez, she lectures them on psychology and tells them that the Dream decks are just sensors recording dream data and are entirely safe.  All the data is encrypted and sent back to Somnambula Inc.  Fitch is less then helpful during the conversation.  

Nash decides to wear the Dream deck so they head back to his house.  Fitch ties him down, just in case and Nash falls asleep.  After one full sleep cycle Fitch wakes him up and Nash watches the dream.  It’s as mundane as could be.  Before Fitch can untie Nash, he gets a message on his PDA from Lithium to get out of Nash’s house.  

Instead of leaving or untying Nash……Fitch grabs Nash’s pistol just as the front door is being kicked in.  All hell breaks loose as a firefight erupts is Nash’s bedroom.  After a quick exchange of fire the intruders, private, professional security, are dead and Nash is knocked out.  Fitch is able to wake Nash and they notice a van running outside.  They bundle up the bodies and dump them in the van.  They see on the vehicles nav-sat that the van left from a rental lot about an hour ago and made a long stop at a parking garage close by.  There is also a message on board from a Sacramento number that says to grab Nash.

The plot thickens……..
