Set Four
Nick napped in his lawn chair, while Judy mercifully dozed off as the train continued to make its way through and then out of Zootopia, crossing the water that sparkled in the sun, and back to the woods on the edge of the suburbs.
Set Five
Judy drove the truck to the Banyan Street Station. She and Nick got out and went over to the gate that said STATION CLOSED. Making sure that no one was watching, they slipped through the gap in the gate. They went down the steps and found the rusty old train that Weaselton had described. They slipped through a window and found many Night Howlers in bloom. They hid when a large ram, presumably the one named Doug that Weaselton had told them of, came in. He made an extract from the Night Howlers, with the fluid ending up in a tiny blue sphere.
Doug got a phone call for a "mark," a cheetah in Sahara Square. He put the sphere into a gun, and it was clear that this was for shooting the mark. As Doug told the animal on the phone that he "hit a tiny little otter through the open window of a moving car," Judy saw the pictures of the fifteen once missing mammals pinned to a ZTA map. She could visualize how it had happened. And she imagined that Manchas was hit between the time he talked to them and the time he reappeared in his savage state. Her hunch was right, these were the Night Howlers that Otterton had tried to warn Mr. Big about.
When Doug's friends arrived with his latte, Judy seized her chance.
Nick couldn't believe it when Judy crawled out from their hiding spot under the table. They were at enough risk, especially when Doug had a scary-looking weapon like that pellet gun. "Where are you going? Where are you going? Get back here! What are you doing? He's gonna see you!" Nick whispered frantically.
Judy didn't reply. Instead, she looked towards the front of the train.
"What are you looking at? Hey! Whatever you're thinking, stop thinking it! Carrots! Carrots!"
Instead of heeding his warning, she kicked Doug out of the train as soon as he opened the door for his coffee. Then she slammed the door.
Nick pointed out that she'd trapped them in there. And then she said they had to get the evidence to the ZPD. So Nick shut the suitcase that Doug had put his gun in. Nick figured that was all they needed, the weapon with its special ammunition.
But crazy Carrots wanted to take "all of it." And she actually got the rust-bucket of an old engine going! Was she going to try to take it all the way to the ZPD? Well, if anyone could, she could. Nick couldn't resist a "victory toot-toot" with the still functioning whistle.
Unfortunately, it turned out to be premature, as Doug's two buddies caught up with the little train and broke their way in. Nick and Judy were able to knock one ram off the train with the other, but Judy ended up on the roof! Nick wanted to stop the train, but Judy told him to speed up! He still thought she was crazy, but this was no time to argue. Even when another train was heading straight at them, he still followed her instructions, hoping she had a foolproof plan.
She sort of did. She kicked the ram so that he hit the track switch, and their car veered off to the right.
Clinging to the outside of the train, Judy heard Nick groan, "Oh no, oh no, no, no, too fast! Too fast, hold on!"
They ended up in a tunnel that dead-ended. Nick, who had been joking all through this, as a coping mechanism she assumed, said, "I think this is our stop!"
They both jumped onto the platform. They were safe for the moment, but the train hit the wall and burst into flames! So much for their evidence. Judy felt like crying. "Everything is gone. We've lost it all."
Then Nick said, "Yeah. Oh, except for this." He showed her that he'd saved the briefcase. His laughter was both triumphant and teasing.
She was thrilled and punched his shoulder, maybe a little too hard since he said, "Ow!"
Judy noticed a picture on the wall, a reproduction of a scene with zebras making peace with lions. The original was in the Natural History Museum. Now she knew where they were. The museum was in the square in Savanna Central shared by, among other buildings, City Hall and the police station for Precinct One. They could cut through the museum and take the suitcase to Bogo. She knew that the museum was currently closed for construction but they were able to follow the steps up from the platform and to the entrance of the museum, ducking under the barriers. She ran through the museum, the suitcase under her arm, Nick not far behind. Soon she could see the front entrance, with the ZPD across the way. They were almost there, and then someone called her name.
...
Doug's phone call was a setback but not an irreversible one. Dawn would just have to try Plan C. She had three officers who were loyal to her, Crimp, Fleece, and Dags, meet her at the museum. She hoped to fool the bunny, as she had so far, but muscular back-up wouldn't hurt.
She found the bunny and the sidekick fox almost at the front entrance. She had been surprised when Doug told her who had hijacked the lab. She thought that the press conference had divided those two unlikely best buddies, but apparently they'd reconciled. Well, Dawn would use that to her advantage, if necessary.
But first she tried gentle persuasion. After all, she was the mayor now and she had Judy's trust. Hopefully, the dumb bunny would hand over the suitcase without any fuss. Dawn told Judy how proud of her she was, but Judy seemed suspicious. Perhaps it would've been better to meet her outside the museum, maybe strolling outside City Hall. She could've intercepted Judy before the rabbit got to the ZPD.
All right, Plan D it was. She had Dags block the exit. When the bunny and fox ran, both Crimp and Fleece pursued them. The rabbit's leg got injured, so no more running.
Yet Dawn tried to use persuasion. She didn't want to resort to violence if she didn't have to. It was so messy. And she did have a soft spot for Judy, and not just because she'd proved so useful. She pointed out the similarities between herself and Judy. She thought of how, under different circumstances, they might've been friends.
Judy and the fox again tried to escape out the front, the fox carrying the rabbit. Fleece head-butted him, and the fox and rabbit fell into a sunken diorama. Dawn was very pleased to see that they lost the suitcase before they fell. She quickly retrieved it. So it would be Plan E, or was she at F now?
She took the gun out of the suitcase and darted the fox. She grinned as she watched him go savage. Then she called the ZPD to let them know that there was a savage fox in the Natural History Museum, about to attack Officer Hopps. Yes, Judy technically was no longer a cop, but Dawn was sure that her former colleagues would remember her and try to rush to her rescue. Too bad they would be too late. And think of the headlines, "Hero Cop Killed by Savage Fox."
Judy, even when she was about to be killed, remained defiant, telling Dawn that her plan wouldn't work.
Dawn told her, "Fear always works! And I'll dart every predator in Zootopia to keep it that way." Well, she would if she had to.
Messy or not, Dawn realized that she was going to enjoy this murder. It was so perfect, and she'd keep her own hooves clean.
The fox closed in on the bunny and bit her neck! But, wait, something had gone wrong. Were they playing with her? What was going on?
Damn them, they'd switched the Night Howler pellet with a blueberry! Maybe the bunny wasn't such a dumb little hick after all. Or maybe it was the sly fox. Well, Dawn wasn't defeated yet. She threatened to frame them as she had framed Lionheart.
But then Judy took out what looked like a silly carrot-shaped pen and played back Dawn's threat to dart every predator in Zootopia! The bunny and the fox had hustled her!
And there was no chance for escape, because the cops had showed up. Why had she called them? Why hadn't she waited till she was sure the bunny was dead? She didn't have a plan to get out of this.
