"Darlen"-loves don't separate, stay with me, Margoret grab your brother's hand and don't let go
(The Margo family enters the supermarket through the automatic sliding door)
Grandma Mel-holy god
(There are many people doing panic buying)

Grandma Mel-I don't know, daughter. Let's keep going for the donuts

Grandma Mel-we also have to buy some vegetables, I'll make a beef broth tomorrow Darlen
"Darlen"-Yes mom
"Margoret"-how delicious a beef broth
"Darrell"-yes mom, ¿can I be in the video game area?
Grandma Mel-no, not Darlen
"Darlen"-no Darrell don't get separated, right now there are a lot of people and you can get lost
(The Margo family arrives at the bakery and they begin to search the bread shelves but there is nothing)
Grandma Mel-there's no bread Darlen
"Margoret"-no bread mom
"Darrell"-look there, there are 2 pancakes
(Margoret runs to the display case and touches them with the tweezers, they all approach Margoret)
"Margoret"-yes but they are hard as a brick
Grandma Mel-Hahaha, hard as a brick
"Darlen"-they shouldn't take long to bring more, let's ask the woman at the bakery
(The Margo family approaches the customer service area of the bakery)
"Darlen"-Hello, excuse me, ¿isn't there more bread available?
(The baker looks at them distractedly)
Baker-¿what does she say?
(Grandma Mel approaches)
Grandma Mel-am that if there will be more bread to sell
Baker-there will be no more for the moment, we ran out of flour
Grandma Mel-¿and that there is no more in the cellar or something?
Baker-I placed an order since last night and they still haven't arrived, today they closed the entrance to the city a couple of hours ago, I'm going to see how I can make more bread, they can take whole wheat bagged or white bread but I don't know if there is still
(The baker leaves there towards the kitchen)
"Darlen"-¿The entrance to the city?, ¿what are you talking about?, We entered there a few hours ago
Grandma Mel-all this is a bad omen
"Darrell"-¿A bad omen?, ¿what is that mom?
Grandma Mel-kids the donuts will be for later, let's go get things for the beef broth
(Everyone leaves the bakery and walks towards the fruit and vegetable area)
"Darrell"-¿what is a bad omen mom?
"Darlen"-I don't know Darrell, your father also mentions that word but I don't know what he is referring to
Grandma Mel-it's like a bad sign, or a warning of something bad
(The Margo family begins to search the fruit and vegetable area)
"Darlen"-we'll buy the donuts later, for now let's go get the things for the broth
(In the fruit and vegetable area there are only garlic, leftover onions and some beets)
"Margoret"-¿and now what?, there are no vegetables for the broth either
"Darrell"-only no good vegetables like disposable ones left on the farm
"Darlen"-¿mom?
(Grandma Mel looks back and forth as she holds the shopping cart)
