“Chaos in the streets this morning as riots break out in Area 22. Eyewitnesses claim that citizens involved in the riot were demanding more emergency food supplies, after trade routes were shut down at around 6am. One citizen, who doesn’t wish to be named, stated that it was the, ‘worst thing since the MobiNet crash in 2920.’”

“It’s absolute chaos out there, George. You hear? You can’t just shut down an entire planet and not tell the people what’s goin’ on. There’s a word for it, George-- it’s called paranoia. Okay? People don’t like to be left in the dark. They start gettin’ all tense and finicky. That’s what’s happenin’ out there, George. People are gettin’ tense. And when people get tense, they start breaking things. Bottles, windows, legs! You name it, George!”
