- "Somebody's barricaded a women's clothing shop in Al Fresca Plaza. From the looks of it, two people are hidin' inside."

Barricade Pair (A & B) is a scoop in Dead Rising.
It takes place in Weber's Garments in Al Fresca Plaza and involves rescuing a pair of survivors, Burt Thompson and Aaron Swoop, from a barricaded store.
Overview
Upon arriving at Al Fresca Plaza, Frank West finds several items piled at the entrance of Weber's Garments. After breaking down the barricade, he finds Burt Thompson wielding a baseball bat and Aaron Swoop cowering in a corner.
Burt thinks Frank is a threat and attacks him. After Frank knocks some sense into Burt, he and Aaron agree to follow Frank back to the Security Room.
In Chop Till You Drop, completing this scoop will reward Frank with Protein and $50,000.
Notes
- Barricade Pair - A is Burt's scoop and Barricade Pair - B is Aaron's. As they are separate scoops it is possible for Frank to locate one but not the other, leave the area, have the one that was located die, return, and still be able to rescue the one who was not located.
- Should Aaron die before Burt is located, only his scoop will be removed from the Scoop Queue. When Frank enters Al Fresca Plaza, the barricade and other items will appear and getting Burt to join proceeds as normal.
- Should Burt die before Aaron is located, both his scoop and Aaron's will be removed from the Scoop Cue. Despite the fact that his scoop is gone, Aaron will still continue to appear for the normal duration of the scoop. However none of the scoop related items will appear and etting Aaron to join can be difficult as Aaron will sometimes ignore Frank. Frank cannot talk to him until he says "Aaaagh! No! Get away from me! Don't kill me!" If this happens Frank can wait until Aaron decided to acknowledge his presence, leave the area and return, or simply leave him to die.
