Two-five to the drone, guys.

00:03

Go ahead.

00:06

If you could see that, remember that pipe that I showed you with my flash side, if you could follow that catwalk over to the north side and maybe see if you find an opening, this person would have went into.

00:18

Okay.

00:24

Somebody from the east side is shining a spotlight, kind of on the east side of the north part of the building.

00:31

It should be like the tallest part.

00:33

There should be some windows, some graffiti, the bottom of it.

00:37

Yeah, right there.

00:38

Can you go up just a tad?

00:42

So that's where that catwalk leads to.

00:49

Drew, are there any holes on the north-facing side of the square building?

00:59

I'm checking now.

01:05

Time to drown around.

01:09

Good.

01:14

I'm going to shine a laser on the building.

01:15

There's a catwalk there.

01:16

Apparently they're walking that catwalk to a security window, which they cut in.

01:22

Just see if that's open or not.

01:24

I don't know if you can see the laser.

01:30

Drew, can you see the laser?

01:33

Yeah, I see a laser kind of on the bottom part of that silo.

01:38

A front of the cat will operate it to sort of laser.

01:41

It goes south from the west side of that structure.

01:49

For Ballard, so I'm checking on the one that you pointed out, and regarding the first one that I pointed out, it does look like one or two of those glass panes are broken out, so he could technically get all the way there from where you guys originally pointed out earlier.
