Purple penguins and a land rush from Oklahoma to Dallas

 

As the day count turned to 30 on The Road to 50 States, the state under the spotlight was Oklahoma. It took it's name from the history of its people, but this trip is about looking to the future and there has been growth in the biotech sector in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area, despite the state long being dominated by oil and agriculture. The team came across an oil derrick and surveyed it with the drone on their way to Texas later, but the first order of the day was a meeting with Wheeler Bio back in the city. After this, they toured the metropolis in the chrome cars and took in some artwork that wasn't Adama's, for a change, at 21c Museum Hotel. Another interview took place on Day 30, but in Barcelona with Grifols Partnership. In the afternoon, the team performed their own Oklahoma Land Rush as they dashed south to Dallas Airport to get Albert to his ticket out for a couple of days. However, there was brotherly love as they simultaneously picked up George for a welcome return to the trip in Albert's absence. He signed the chain of custody for the Tesla keys and promised to take care of it.
