Dead Rising: Watchtower Page #3

Synopsis: In East Mission, Oregon, the Hit Point reporter Chase Carter and the camerawoman Jordan are covering stories from the people in quarantine of a zombie outbreak. The FEZA is using the vaccine Zombrex to inoculate the victims and Chase tries to interview Crystal LaRourke that is on the location. Out of the blue, the patients turn into zombies and Jordan flees with the Hit Point car, leaving Chase behind. He follows Crystal chased by zombies and she stumbles upon Maggie, a woman in shock that has just lost her daughter. They seek shelter in a loan store while Jordan arrives in the border but is sent to quarantine. While the military under the command of General Lyons want to bomb the city since Zombrex is ineffective, Chase, Crystal and Maggie fight to reach the border. Chase discovers a secret about Crystal while Jordan discloses the real intention of General Lyons.

Meanwhile...

I have a whole quarantine to run.

Researchers across the country

are working on that.

Meanwhile you are shooting people.

- Healthy people.

- You think I like that?

You think I want that?

I am responsible for the

safety of the entire country.

I can't take a chance,

... on them,

on your friend.

You want to give me proof?

You better make it quick.

Go, go, go!

- Yes, sir,

- On the left side ,

- On me.

- Yes sir,

New developments in the

Mission East quarantine...

The US military arrived,

and we go now live

to a press conference.

already in progress,

Citizens, we are here to

support FEZA in any way we can.

This is a serious situation,

but there is no need to panic,

It is true,

tough choices have to be made.

and they will be taken,

and they will be made decisively.

I have been authorized

by the White House...

... to destroy the threat,

through military action.

This country is and will remain safe,

I expect fire bombing to commence...

... within 48 hours,

Thank you for your time.

Frank, what advice do you have...

... for those trapped in

inside the quarantine zone?

Turn off your television.

Put down your phones and

run for your goddamn life.

Run where?

The quarantine is sealed,

there is nowhere to go.

What the hell are you talking about?

Fine, Let me tell you something.

- Read my book.

- Oh, Jesus ,

Chapter 5,

I specifically tell you that...

... can't worry about technicalities.

Okay? Screw the rules.

You have to improvise,

think on your feet...

... use what you can,

where you can.

Maybe you shoot you down

like a dog, maybe not,

But I'll tell you one thing...

Talking to us,

ain't going to help you at all.

Sorry.

I didn't realize.

You don't owe me anything.

How are you feeling?

Hey?

Why do your drugs work and theirs didn't?

I have a dealer.

I hate those goddamn clinics.

You have any left?

Just one.

Do you know where to get more?

Oh thank God!

I thought you left me here.

Look, We need to stick together and

come up with some kind of plan.

Yeah, well, I don't have time, so...

... I have to find some Zombrex...

... out there.

is true.

Tough choices must be made.

Will be made.

And they will be made decisively.

I have been authorized

by the White House...

... to destroy the threat,

through military action.

I expect firebombing

to commence within 48 hours.

Come on.

We've got five minutes, boys!

Get what you can!

Let's go shopping.

Yeah!

Take everything!

Yeah.

You're gonna get us killed.

You're a bad girl, huh?

Look at you.

Yeah. Okay, okay...

- You've got me.

- Leave the sword.

Logan!

Logan!

Now.

Move.

Yeah.

I found my sword.

Maybe they can help us.

- I don`t believe...

- You can trust me, I've got this.

- Honey, wait!

- Hey...

Hey, hold up!

Hey, guys.

Oh, Jesus.

Thank God.

We can go with you guys?

Please man, just...

We need help, man.

It's OK, yeah, yeah.

Ten grand, one way.

What?

I don't have $10,000.

You should have just offered me the girl.

Now I get her for free.

- F***,

- Run!

Run! Run!

Oh sh*t.

Get off me!

Yeah!

No! No! Come back!

Stop! Get off of me!

- You want a ride?

- Yes!

Help! Please help me!

You should have ran.

No!

No!

No! Help me!

Please don't leave me!

Frank, our producers

would like to know...

...If you can give

our viewers...

... especially, our

younger viewers...

Yeah, word up.

Some tips on

how to deal with zombies,

- Of course,

- Before you answer,

let's go back to Willamette.

What you saw,

what you felt,

what did you do...

... when you were confronted

for many zombies at once?

Well the first thing you want to do is

take out as many as possible,

Early.

So go for the weak ones first.

Grandma...

... take her out, grandpa too.

You've got siblings?

They're going to be easier.

Save your parents for the last.

Remember to breathe,

Take short breaks...

... to recover your stamina.

And then when you get down to the last one...

... or two...

... probably your mom or dad...

You should be OK.

Just make sure you finish the job.

Frank, that's...

Wow, thank you. That was great.

Hey, and one more thing, kids.

Remember to build weapons.

Lots of weapons.

Maggie, would you get some tape?

Help me.

You coming?

Listen.

The only reason they are bombing

is they don't know you exist.

They didn't know your drugs is working.

We don't need to go out there.

We just need to get you on camera.

Not happening.

Your daughter isn't out there.

Good luck.

Damn!

Jordan,I have an idea.

Now, listen to me.

I need you to find some Zombrex.

Great.

Sh*t.

Goddammit!

Okay, we have to

do it quietly.

It's okay,

Hey!

You ready to die,

you brain dead zombies fucks?

Come and get it!

Chase! That's enough.

Follow us.

Motherf***er!

Com'on.

Thanks.

Get in.

Hey, right now,

real quick, pop quiz.

How would you kill me

if you could?

Oh my God!

Right now, with my bare hands.

You would lose against a zombie.

BAd advice, don't try it with

bare hands, grab a weapon.

Can I tell you how I would kill you?

- I wouldn't

- You're killing me right now. ,

Wouldn't, I wouldn't kill you.

If you were a zombie, I'd let you eat me.

Oh God!

- This seems like a great place to...

- I'm kidding!

I'm kidding. I would smash your

head in with a television.

I would smash your head in with that television right there.

I may be begging you to do that shortly.

Do you still have Zombrex

stored inside the city?

- I'm very busy.

- Do you have supplies in there or not?

Why? So you can blame this on us?

So I can save lives.

How are you going to do that?

I need to get some Zombrex

to a guy inside.

I can prove that it's

not a resistant strain.

Counts and estimates.

We show have a look,

- But General, she's not...

- Don't worry.

I was here.

- Listen...

- No!

Norton, you've got to help me out.

Excuse me.

Jesus.

Thank you, Norton.

Got it.

Hey, I think I can get them to let us out.

Hey, did you hear me?

Okay.

They've all been looted.

Jordan found something.

A storage facility. There should be Zombrex there.

Come on, let's go.

Who the hell did this?

I don't know.

Think they're still home?

Thanks.

Jesus Christ.

How are we supposed to find

anything in here?

Come on.

You be my friend?

You be my friend?

You want to be my friend...

My friend?

My friend?

Let's play a game.

Hey where's Maggie?

Okay, let's go,

Is anyone living here?

Son of a b*tch.

It's the same sh*t

from the stadium.

We still have to prove

the problem is with the drugs.

and not a new strain

of the virus.

Really, how?

You take a dose.

If symptoms come on, we know

it doesn't work.

and then you can take

good stuff right away.

Are you kidding?

If we can prove the drugs is bad,

and go public,

they will have to let us out.

Yeah, go public.

Look, we can search every

drug store in town.

We still get firebombed tomorrow.

It's the only way.

Take your camera.

My friend... My friend.
