It looks quiet.

It looks normal.

Yeah, too normal.

- I'll check out the shop.

- You sure?

Yeah.

You ready?

[pump whirs]

[pump whirs]

[low, rasping growl]

That was close.

- We almost done?

- Almost.

Fill it up. That one isn't going anywhere.

Do you hear that?

What?

[low mechanical-like hum]

It's a car.

Hey. Stay the f*** where you are.

I was just...

Just nothing!

Just stay the f*** where you are.

I was just...

Just nothing,

just f***ing stay there, okay?

Where are you from?

Where are you from?

F***!

Where are you from?

You guys have got a full tank?

We need a full tank.

So, you want to talk now?

What I want is your diesel.

Where are you from?

Ireland.

A long way from home?

Yeah, well, I'm looking for someone.

We can give you some diesel.

Where are you heading?

Perth.

That's where we're going.

Things bad up there?

Look, I'm sorry. My name's Ronan.

Fair enough.

I guess we're all on edge now.

Craig.

Bill.

Do you want a lift?

Yeah, that'd be good.

[thud]

It's all right, it's not going anywhere.

- Do either of you know it?

- No.

Right.

- What are you gonna do?

- What do you think?

Why?

That's the only way

to f***in' survive this.

[Craig] Never trust strangers.

[growling]

[Craig grunts]

That's what he meant.

What?

It's what Ronan meant.

What?

How to survive this.

[Seren] What are you talking about?

[growling continues through the door]

I thought...

my plan was to survive

the initial onslaught

and then find shelter,

focus on security.

I was wrong.

The only way to survive this,

is to see it through until the end.

And to have no more zombies.

How do you do that?

Simple. You kill them all.

[Craig strains]

If we stay here, we die. It's that simple.

Get in the wardrobe.

And stay quiet.

No matter what happens...

[Craig grunts]

stay there and stay quiet.

[low growling]

[Craig grunts]

[zombies growl and scream]

[zombies growl and scream]

[Kate] I want to make him stop.

[crying and wailing continues]

[Craig wailing]

[din of zombies gurgling]

[woman sobs]

[Ronan groaning]

Okay.

[Ronan continues to groan]

[door creaks]

[Kate sobs]

[Craig] Bill, open the door.

Let's move.

- [Ronan groans]

- Ronie, I'm here.

Ronan's been bit.

No!

[Kate groans]

[Craig] Ronan said saving his sister

and her friend would be easy.

Come on! Come on!

[woman cries]

[panting]

[woman screams]

[woman screams]

[Kate] What are you doing?

Get in the f***ing car.

I can't.

Ronan!

Ronan! No!

[Ronan] I love you.

[Kate] Please!

Drive!

No! No! No!

Stop the f***ing car!

[screaming]

Stop it now!

Take my heart

Please! Please!

Before you fall

[Kate] No!

Nothing lasting

[Kate howls]

Until you call

Picture me

Tell me I'm your always

Stay with me

Coming up off into your gaze

Are we stopping?

I need some air.

Is this a good idea?

Is it safe?

What?

Chill out, look around you.

Chill out?

We don't know if it's safe!

Open your f***ing eyes!

If you can't see anything, it's safe!

[gasps lightly]

Hey, go easy on her, she's been through...

Been through hell?

We're still in f***ing hell.

I just...

I just... I just

slaughtered...

Thanks.

We'd been stuck and had pretty much

ran out of food.

[chuckles]

[sniffs]

We didn't know what to do.

Hey.

Hey.

I'm sorry I...

Me, too.

He saved my life, my brother.

He got in the way of...

whatever you want to call it.

Zombies.

Zombies.

He'll be one of them now, won't he?

I saw it happen to so many people.

They would just wander out into the street

and get attacked.

So many of them, so quick.

They thought they could help.

Where are we going now?

We're heading to the Isle of Skye.

Why?

The Isle of Skye?

That's in the backend of nowhere?

Exactly.

So, we just head there and...

And live out our days, until this passes?

Survival.

Yes and no.

The only way to survive this

is to live through it.

To see it finish.

[Seren] This will never finish.

[Craig] It can.

What?

When people find a cure?

What people? What cure?

I didn't say anything about a cure.

Well, how else will this end?

They're dead.

You mean...?

What?

Finding a cure could end it.

But I'm not putting my faith in it.

[Kate] Why not?

How long have

we tried to find a cure for cancer,

Parkinson's, and MS?

For years, with huge facilities

and financial backing.

For what?

Now we have nothing.

The world has gone to sh*t

and we're going to find one now?

Unlikely.

Well, then how else will we...

We kill them.

We kill them all.

There must be 60 million people

in this country.

Most of them are probably zombies.

And we will kill them all.

You and what army?

We'll find other survivors.

[whispers] This is crazy.

Whoever put this idea in your head's

an idiot.

Your brother.

We'll head to the Isle of Skye.

Then we'll make our place safe and secure.

This is...

Actually a good idea.

A... a good idea?

The only idea.

You're all crazy.

You got something better to do?

Whatever you think,

we'll head to the Isle of Skye.

We've got another five or six hours'

driving on our hands

Make yourselves comfortable.

Are we actually

going to anywhere in particular?

I know a place.

You know a place...

Is it safe?

I don't know.

We'll find out soon enough.

[screaming]

[banging on door]

[Bill] I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

[banging]

[phone ringing]

[ringing continues]

Mum? Mum? Is that you?

[on phone] Hello?

Oh, Bill, where are you?

I'm fine.

I'm...

Where are you?

We're at home, son. We're okay.

Um...

Stay there.

[stammers] I'm coming to get you.

No! Stay where you are, don't come here.

We're fine.

[voice in background]

[Bill's mum] I don't know what to say.

Mum?

[on phone] Son?

Dad... [voice breaks]

Son, we're...

We love you.

We want you to know that.

I love you too.

Are you okay?

No. No, no, son.

They're in the house.

They're maniacs.

They've... they've killed the neighbours.

How are you... How are you so calm?

Get out.

Get out now, Dad.

It's too late for us now, son.

We can't get out.

But you have to stay safe, okay?

Stay safe.

Dad?

[Bill's mum] They're getting in!

Son, we have to go now.

No, Dad...

Dad!

[Seren] One of these days...

There's no rush.

Play it cool. I like that.

You could ask me out.

- I can't.

- Why not?

I'm a lady.

That you are.

So...

See you next week?

No rush?

No rush.

So, tell me everything!

- You first.

- You!

- You.

- You.

- You.

- You always win.

Well, love life...

Hmm?

Not happening.

Yeah, right.

Not that I'd tell you anyway,

none of your business, but it's not.

How about work, then?

Work? Good, great, in fact.

- Got some news.

- Oh.

I got a bonus. Seven grand.

What? Oh, my God.

- I'm thinking of going to Thailand.

- Finally live the dream!

Something like that.

[both laugh]

So what about you?

Ah... what about me?

Come one.

What? There must be something.

It's... It is what it is. Um...

Sounds ominous.

Oh, not ominous, but...

But it's not good?

I'm being stationed in Afghanistan.
