The next day, they all get on a boat to go to Orchid Island
     Dan: I heard the government left a lot of nuclear waste here. Have they cleaned it up yet?

     Dan: Were you ever part of the protests?
     Banai: In 2002, I steered my boat in front of a ship that was trying to bring nuclear waste to the island. We stopped it dead in the water.
     Dan: That sounds kind of like being in a battle.
