Dawn: Slam the door. Call the police. I mean....what else could I do?
Vernon: Fella's got a life sentence. Iffin' he showed up at the door, there ain't nothin' good that could come from it.
Dawn: And the gods can only hope I could close the door fast enough. What if he had a gun? Or a bomb? Lamb sakes! The last time he 'dropped by' where I was living, he set it on fire!
Vernon: Dawn's got a taser, and me o'course iffin' I'm home, but we ain't got much stronger than that in terms of home defense. The bigger districts don't like licensing folks out personal tranq weapons out of fear they'll accidentally overdose a mammal by misjudgin' the size needed to take 'em down. And ownin' live-fire weapons only flies in districts like the North Meadowlands and Alpine Glade.
Dawn: And there are the lambs to worry about now, and...gods *Shudders* I'm shaking just thinking about him trying to grab them on their way to the bus at school...
Vernon: At least we got eyes in the ZPD lookin' out fer us, and our pups.
Dawn: Thankfully...and with all the corruption 'hopefully' cleaned out of Outback Island's prison system, Doug should never be able to get out again.
Vernon: Iffin' he does, the full force of the ZPD will be waitin' for him should he come anywhere near the city.
