From Barf Forth:

As the MC, I had to not push them towards Hoover.  There were loose ends they wanted tidied up in Cocktail and its just the third game in; everyone’s easing into their characters and how the group dynamics shake out.

There is a neat kind of 3 way conflict that is simmering and set to boil, where Harlan and Cybelle want to stay footloose and fancy free, not trusting much of anything about Hoover, but Doc wants to settle down and start building some proper civilization, a learning hospital where he can teach other doctors.
