History

Manga

Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson stopped by Lob's Diner for a meal while looking for Vash the Stampede. When they placed their orders, the patrons of the establishment began laughing at them. Three men made a lewd joke towards the girls. Milly repeated her order, as she didn't understand the joke, when the strap of her stun gun broke and the large weapon fell from beneath her jacket, causing a table to flip up and smash into one of the rude men's faces. The frightened men backed off and Meryl was able to ask the bartender at the diner for directions to April City.THE $$60 BILLION DOUBLE DOLLAR MAN
