### Segment 1 (00:00 - 01:00) []

It's past midnight on January 2nd and Mcgown's palms are coated in sweat. He's racked with anxiety as the group drives through the pitch black forest towards the Superior Lumber Offices in Glendale, Oregon. In the front sit Jacob Ferguson, Kevin Tubs, and another ELF member, Stan Meerhoff. They arrive at the site in the dead of night. McGawan is the first one out. He hops out of the van and holds up in a ditch nearby with a good view of the target. He's lookout number one. With a McGawan in place with a two-way radio in hand, the other five make their way to the second lookout location south of the offices. Savvo gets out of the back seat and positions herself in a phone booth, ready with her radio to alert the team if anything seems lost. Right now, the coast is clear. The final three quickly make their way to the building and get to work. They nestle two 5gallon buckets full of gasoline and diesel along the east wall of the building that abuts the parking lot. Then make their way around the building to the west side. There, under the electric meter, they plant three more buckets of fuel, set electric timers, jump back into the van, and drive away. By the time they scoop up McGawan and Savois, only 15 minutes had passed. At 2:29 a. m., the police scanner in the van pings with activity. The blaze had begun and thanks to the position of the fuel along the walls, the flames reached the attic before setting off the alarms. The entire roof was on fire before anyone was notified. The next day, Steve Swanson, the president of Superior Lumber, walked through the remains of his offices. It was clear the ELF had succeeded. The heat was apparently so extreme that computer monitors and lights melted.
