or as some people has proposed, if Irwin is overrun, flee to Colony. I think that is far less likely, but still in the realm of reality.

Either way, I think you're stacking the deck by listing those only two outs. I think the 'shown gun' theory everyone keeps mentioning applies to more than just the nukes. Lizzy was told of Burt, the colony is in pure chaos, and she's pregnant and emotional GET BURT!!!! will ring through the colony and Victor/CJ/Saul will rescue him as things die down in the gunfight. as they do, both sides numbers are reduced and we have an epic standoff of Burt/Scratch.
My fundamental issue with this is Burt surviving which I don't think he does. Burt is going to die goddamnit because I've now shouted this from the seven highest peaks on the planet. If it doesn't happen, I'm going to be so mad.
