5G Outage Turns Gen Zs Into Zombies In Episode 2 Of 'The Drop,' Now Streaming On Narcity (VIDEO)

In Episode 2 of The Drop, Polly ushers Zara into the world of overnight line-waiting gigs. Regardless of their airtight plan, the crew is totally unprepared for a 3-day drop lineup when a cellular network outage occurs. Polly panic-buys adult diapers so she and Zara can cash in on other line waiters' eventual need for a bathroom break. Without phones, Wi-Fi or social media, things get... weird.

Watch Episode 1 of The Drop on Narcity below and catch up on our first-ever fully scripted series.
