You, a resident of the town of gang-filled Carbon, Texas in 2208, is reminded by the bell tolling of the gangsters in the central square of the day being 'collection day', where the Raider Matron, Jane, collects caps from the residents or enslaves the ones who don't. You nervously step out of your makeshift house and to the town square, where you see the Raider Matron speak out.

Jane: "Collection day! Hand over your caps or i'll make you work for skimping out on me and my gang!"
