Line 220:
=== The Convicts ===
A trio of escaped criminals who have somehow gotten ahold of a vehicle with a mounted machine gun. Rather then trying to survive or escape the mall, all they seem to care about is having fun while they can. Unfortunately, their definition of fun seems to be to assault/kill anyone they come across. Their names aren't given in-game, but they're officially known as Reginald Jenkins (The driver), Miguel Sanchez (The batter), and Sam Franklin (The gunner).
* [[Batter Up]]: The convict who isn't driving or using the turret (Miguel Sanchez) wields a baseball bat unless the driver is killed. If that happens he will move over and keep the jeep moving himself.
* [[Drives Like Crazy]]: Reginald Jenkins (And Miguel Sanchez should Reginald die before him) drives the jeep very erratically. While dodging it can be a pain in the ass especially with survivors in tow, you ''can'' take advantage of this by getting him to ram into a tree and attacking them (preferably with a gun) while Reginald/Miguel tries to get the jeep back in motion.
* [[Equal Opportunity Evil]]: All three convicts in the trio are a different race: Reginald Jenkins (the driver) is white, Miguel Sanchez (the batter) is Hispanic, and Sam Franklin (the gunner) is black.
* [[Demonic Spiders]]: You'll have to fight them sooner or later unless you plan to spend a lot of time avoiding gunfire or getting ran over. To make matters worse, if you enter another area to grab health items and come back any that you've killed come back to life.▼
* [[Establishing Character Moment]]: The first thing they do is take a swing at Frank when he steps out into the mall's park. When the guy with the bat (Miguel Zanchez) misses they then decide to go after
* [[For the Evulz]]: This is hinted to be why they hang around and go after anyone who walks into the park.
* [[Quick Time Event]]/[[Press X to Not Die]]: ''Chop Till You Drop'' changes them into one long event, even if one hates this, it's a lot better than the alternative.
* [[Leitmotif]]: Gone Guru by Lifeseeker. It serves as an early warning if they're in the area when you enter.
* [[More Dakka]]: Sam Franklin is the gunner of the group, and his minigun ''hurts''.
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: It probably wasn't intentional, but fans have noticed that Reginald and Miguel heavily resemble Steve-O and Danny Trejo respectively.
▲* [[
* [[Unexplained Recovery]]: They respawn each day with a new vehicle and everything. This is never explained or elaborated upon.
