- Alek and his companions are at the Swiss border in their walker, but a German land frigate is waiting for them. Uh-oh…
- They decide the only way to get past it is to try to sneak by at night—because everyone thinks piloting a walker at night is too dangerous.
- The land frigate sends out searchlights at random intervals, which they have to sneak by.
- They try disguising the walker's noise by walking in a loud streambed. Pretty smart thinking.
- They run right into some German soldiers on foot, but the walker manages to plow through them.
- Alek speeds up, taking the walker into a run—at night.
