雖然這天是相對地平淡的，在乍得N’djamena平靜的Meredien旅館裡懶洋洋的渡過，但卻是我們在i-Act5的旅途上一個有趣的開始。這是Gabriel與KTJ自從二月第一次返回到酒店.因為他們上次在酒店期間正好遇上流產政變，並且在他們逗留的時間天天都有子彈穿梭于大堂與客房之間。當他們回到他們曾經為躲避子彈而爬行過的客房，大堂，走廊，他們不停的感嘆當時的情景. 這同時也是Colin與Scott正式在首都渡過的第一天。當他們兩穿過津巴布韋與肯尼亞到達乍得之後,他們兩人都迫不及待的去營地與已流離失所的難民們見面。Colin與Scott都是Stand活躍的領導層, 並在去年負責組織該國各地數百名大學生和高中生，以他們的努力在Darfur制止種族滅絕。他們倆都興奮異常，因為終于可以來到這個長期肯定他倆工作成果的地域。 今天,保護的主題已開始被傳達了;而以後也將會不斷的被提起。這是Gabriel第五次去難民營了，而每一次被迫離開家園的人數都出現了增加，而非減少。簡單來說，他們並沒有他們回國所需要的保護。這個月，美國作為擔任聯合國安理會的主席，我們希望我們 這次難民營的旅程可以向聯合國展示事情的緊迫性，全面通過成立部署一支聯合國部隊保護無辜難民。我們終於有能力採取行動，但是對這些難民來說，已是遲來的春天。
