tracks to keep those

insomniacs awake and those heavy

drinkers entertained

of mine from brian

adams

i wanted to see

because i've got an exciting new

opportunity for you

over the numbers and

out of anyone on the

graveyard shift

you've had the highest ratings

world war ii capsule

you're quite the

avid historian oh uh yeah

being invited onto

your show only to

be ridiculed and

bullied into being

made to look like a

racist

sit here while you

attack me

like your bloodthirsty

ancestors did to

the polish

go to news can i offer

you a jaffa cake

no thank you cheese

puff no no it's fine

so why are you

listening to another

radio station oh

scout the competition anyway

after your little

ordeal in there i

think

it's better if you

stay in your comfort

zone we

took a risk on you

being in prime time

well with all due respect sir

hans was pushing me

to the edge you you

basically called him a nazi

well not directly it's

probably best for

you to stay

back in the graveyard

shift where you

belong i'm sorry

it's just already been

a long day please

shout the door on your way out

Jason! oh hey hey

how'’d it go in there

did you give me your

wow factor you get

the job

Were you not listening to the

broadcast? no

why i kind of lost

my call elvis um

no what what happened

you know just for

research purposes i

called someone a nazi

oh and that's not good

no so how did it go in there

did you get fired oh

no no but it looks

like i'm going to

be on the graveyard

shift again

until i'm well

oh dead oh no i was

what do you call it

the graveyard shift

you are an idiot

where is everyone

what's this all about okay

if you're just tuning

in now we've just

got word that the capsule found

in Frankfurt early this

morning was in fact

a nazi weapon that did

contain a deadly gas

capable of causing

cell mutation and

reanimation

the gas is fast spreading

and all across

the globe

people are being

advised to remain

indoors until further

developments

tabloid crap you're

joking right this

sounds fucking serious zombies

I could take him

shut the fuck up ow

sounds pretty dangerous

I'’m going home

hell is going on

flustered some of

your employees sir

jason i'm getting so

sick of this have

we got no one

i'm pretty bored of

thought i'd give this a go

i'm eric i work in

it i've never seen

this man before in my life

okay i see you're

bored i know exactly

what you need

you need someone

who is charismatic

knows the music industry

you need someone with balls

and i've got balls

no please don't

please don't do it

if you reach out

so i feel like my my

kind of involvement

in this company

after working here

for 12 long fucking

years

um that i would

really be suited for

this new position of a

fucking radio presenter

um and you know

i

i i know this company

inside now like

your mum's vagina

and um i think you

should fucking stop

that

cunt hello sir

hello sam what's

your name my name is

charles

jason sideline

this atrocity of a

human being is also

called charles did

you know we hired

this man

actually no don't

answer that i'm sick

of you being so

shoddy at your job

what have you even

been writing this

whole time show me your notes

jason please go

be more productive

somewhere else and

take this fucking imposter

with you

oh so you nervous

me oh no no this is legacy

and besides i'm going

up against a bunch

of fucking

rejects and a caterer

the biggest of

them all

you raise a good

point so you don't

think i'll get it

no i think a fucking

performing monkey

has a better chance

of getting a job in

radio than you

go back to the

kitchen hawaii five

fucking 0

and let the real

talent do their job

yeah

well i do like food

and yeah well the

radio voice kind of

yeah that's my throat yeah yeah

all right don't fuck off

okay so we need to get some food

everybody take a set

of desks and find

what you can

just so you know we're

not happy about

giving up our food

so we have off-brand

brown flakes two

ready meals

packet of polos um

sorry not quite a

packet of polos the

director's bananas

frozen vegetables um

oh g-strings okay so

the water's still

running there's no

problem there but

even with all this

food it's only gonna

last us

about half an hour so that any

volunteers go down

to the kitchen get

some more well i know

the layout pretty

well and i know all

the best things to

get so maybe

i should go okay but

it's probably best

if you take someone with you

can i help maybe not

you simon you know

with your arm

how did you do that by the way

um I

I fell

yeah anyone oh

maybe I should go but

it's way too scary

I don't know

it's dark i can finally

prove myself to

Mr. H

uh I mean Mr. Haverford

I'’ll go

oh um we're sending

those two out

there's nothing wrong

with that okay

cool

the lights are all

off probably best to

save power

so Elvis where's the

food where's the

delicious food

you're doing a bit

no i was just trying

to make conversation

huh weird it's just you're here

so Jason you got a

wife oh gosh no I

was never really the

marriage type you

know my mom's never

really taught me

the art of seduction

and all that stuff

oh

okay what about you

oh well there was this one girl

um but we fell out

before all of this

started oh

well what happened

between you she said

i reminded her

of her dad charles

she said i'd like it ah

stay strong you know

be positive all

that stuff you know

to play more fish in

the sea

yeah you're you're

all right all right

i'm gonna go and see

if i can go and

open the blind get

some light in here

hey elvis what's with this dog

oh i just died yeah you did

wait what are we

gonna do about that

i don't think it's

in our best interest

i don't think it's

in anyone's best

interest to go and

stab a bunch of zombies

someone's got to

be the hero

no no no elvis no

elves don't elvis i

could be the hero

how about instead we

box this up completely

and don't tell

anyone about anything

agreed food hmm

there's noise in

here

the circumstances i

almost just died but

you know

how are you guys wait

hang on a minute

what are you doing here

we've done so much food

and pasta and bread everything

try tell that to the

guy whose brother just died

okay then well basically

um you know i'm

over the moon that

mr hatherford has

given me this

opportunity to be on

primetime radio

but you know the thing

is i feel like i

feel like elvis is

overshadowing me a bit maybe

maybe you should kill him

i killed that kid oh okay um

i'm i'm not quite

following though

if i wanted to be

in the limelight

here's

here's what i would do

okay well i think i

think i'm just gonna

i think i'm gonna

disappear now but

you you will disappear

what nothing

nothing

hey you are sir i

have your drink my

mother and me were

abandoned by my

father when i was a boy

there sir tell the

refugees they can

stay

okay yeah the pain

hey

hold on there not now

jeanette i need to

go and talk to elvis

you don't look like

you're in a talking

mood to me i don't

have time for this

you never have time

you never had time

for me there was always

something bigger

that i was getting in the way of

when are you going

to take a step back

and start looking at

the bigger picture

there are people

literally eating each

other outside and

you're worried about

this

seriously is this

really how you felt

i had no idea yes

you were on your ass

before i got you

this job and even then

i would still get

in the way of something

more important

we're all in the same

boat right now you

need to make the

best out of a bad

situation

what huh what were you

even listening to

what i was even saying

oh no no but while you're saying

whatever that was

i had a great idea

i should just make

the best of a bad situation

i shouldn't be so

hard on elvis and i

should worry less

bigger picture jeanette

look i know i may have

stolen the show a

little bit yesterday

but i love throwing

myself into things

and i love being an

entertainer but today

have these

two for one slush

puppies that are to

die for

how long have you had that

okay that's enough

more ideas people

come on

what about anyone else

how i still don't

care what why is this

happening

how what is it that

you do around here

he's our field reporter

one of the best damn

journalists we've

got around this place

it's okay hal you got

me ideas you just

yell them out

don't stress yourself

though yeah i

wasn't going to anyways

what boring thing

to report about

fields i've got it wow

this will be good

radio dramas they're

always popular

wait hang on in what

universe are radio

dramas popular

thanks mai but

probably best to leave

this to the professionals

you know the

ones who didn't get

the job because

their predecessor died

carl where are you

going oh uh i thought

with the whole

predecessors thing

you know jerry news

jerry

bit awkward but jerry didn't die

he moved to australia

oh yeah of course

he did

anyway back to my

idea radio dramas oh

right well i'm sorry

i just didn't

realize that our

audience were 900

fucking years old

i'm intrigued

so after my original

broadcast it got a

lot of attention

both good and bad

he's over there

get him not today

partner he's over there fire

Engage

well that was messy

But in short the only

broadcasting radio

Anyone?

literally any idea

at all what about no anything

Charles listen

what did you just

say to me sir i'm

i'm sorry for raising

my voice but i'm a

little tired of you

not letting me

voice my opinions

okay i'll humor you

let's hear your bright idea does

everyone want to

hear jason's bright

idea

okay we're all listening

okay well i've

compiled a list of

well off the top of my head

inspirational quotes

this will be good

such as oh i've got a good one

always be your best you

um the only ship that won't sink

is friendship nope stupid

for god's sake let's

just go with mike's

idea we'll get people

to do q a at home

it's that simple how

that is brilliant i

can always rely on

you

right so first we're

gonna do a test

call to see if everything's okay

yep okay

did she just say testicle

just shh okay

oh a caller it's

jeanette oh yeah right

advice on your show

mike uh

sure okay so i'm

having some troubles

with an ex

and i want to talk

to him and bury the

hatchet as it were

and he just avoids me

at all costs worst

part is we work together

and he won't listen

to me well that is a

tricky one

that's not ideal at

all perhaps some

soothing music will

help i don't think

so

i think i just need

to talk to him i'm

so sorry caller

but we only have a

certain amount of

time for every call

so i'm gonna have to

i'm gonna have to cut

you off there yeah

just so emotional right now

and the show starts

turning to shit and

i'm the only

professional one around

here

that's not bad enough

already the world

is being overtaken

by brainless fucking

morons

men no i meant the

zombies out there oh

no right yeah and

i'm with you now

although now you

mentioned that they are

quite similar aren't they

yeah i mean they

both walk around

aimlessly with no

constantly moan

about anything and

everything

right and they both

smell like shit

oh hello

i don't mind mean

ladies nature calls

oh gosh where are my

man manners i'm calm

fuck lita coleta

mr haverford hired

me to run recon on

for the company silly

me um maria you

said something about a meeting

carl must really be

going through some

stuff that was carl

i don't understand

why we're still here

well we're here

charlie because

we're safe from the

outside environments

besides taking them

and down from the

inside well i think it's a

stupid plan i certainly

don't feel safe

here and that coal

guy definitely has

something wrong with him

hey i'm in charge here

who died and made

you in charge hey

you'll be dead in a

minute adam jokes

thought that aren't

funny anymore

would you stop arguing

well i don't have

to stay here and

take this anymore

what door's that way then

we should put him

out of his misery

we did really well

today elvis yeah

thanks em dude that's just

no

there are zombies

in the building

i know this is a big

issue and we'll

deal with it real

soon but mike oh

please stop asking

me out on dates

brunch

adam haley i'm sorry

for your loss but

unfortunately we have

very little time

to mourn uh stop it

because we have a

very pressing matter

shouldn't charles

be here you know

considering he's like

the boss oh um charles

is a little busy

please stop worrying

about it michael

i've got jason on hold with the

exterminators now

jason what song are

they playing i uh

i don't really recognize

it sir i don't

really know it

well hamm it okay uh it's going

something like

something like that

which led us to here

mike you are a terrible

storyteller oh

okay

wake up please oh god sorry

look guys i know

we're all tired but

there are zombies in

the building and we

need to unite

and find a way to

find a way to get

rid of them so does

anyone have

any ideas on how we

can solve this issue

oh oh okay elvis go

maybe we should ask

the texts they seem

like they'd be good at

killing things

text killers i could

drop those nerds in

a second

elvis do you want

to go and grab him

okay what now oh

fine i will go as i

seem to be the only

stable one around here

seriously you um

yeah what about

that time that you

screamed obscenities

at a five pound

note because the

queen looked at you

funny

jeanette please how

about when you cried

at march of the penguins

hey come on that

film is an emotional

roller coaster

they're birds that

want to be fish see

my point

none of us here are

entirely stable

given the circumstances

whatever someone needs to go and

everyone here is

currently driving me

insane

hey guys i know it's

late but see we've

got a bit of an issue

one of the pro

there must be

something i can do to

destroy these

bastards

hi carl what

what do you want you consider

us friends right no okay

well i consider you

a friend friend

excellent

i don't care right

well i've been

thinking about the

zombie issue for a

few days now and

i think it's a simple fix what

we only found out

about the zombies a

few hours ago well

jason and i knew

about them since we

went to get food

from the pantry and

you didn't tell

anyone

we were frightened

well that elvis

gives me an idea why

don't you come join

the meeting then

i'd rather not i need to

plan something

okay see you later then

oh my god

mike but buddy you okay

the text this there's something

there's something wrong

with them i told

you

sorry

oh my god mike

just pull yourself

together

and everyone else

working together to

come up with a

collective solution to

solve the problem is

the only way we're

going to survive

well we need something

that's you know

like

long and thin and

stabby that we can

just

we can just them with

you know such as

well what about this

thing oh there's no

what what about fire

that does not sound

safe well we get one

of the food boxes

we fill it with paper and other

flammable stuff and we just

throw it into the

kitchen that's great a

great way to burn down

the whole station

elvis you're really

more of a doer than

a thinker

thanks well i don't

see you coming up

with any more ideas jeanette

i don't know there's

another way into

the lobby maybe someone

could bait them

outside

that is crazy plus

who's gonna go for

that

really that's pretty

damn racist guys oh

no we didn't mean

oh we were just

looking that way

it was really just a

coincidence oh good

because you know

what happens to all

those black guys in

the horror movies i

wouldn't last a second

okay well it's still

a terrible idea

we're not putting one

of our own at risk

you know i'm still

thinking my weapon

idea is golden weapons

does anyone have a

gun if i had a gun

i'll use it on all of you

we need to just think of all the

possibilities don't we

i'm going to go to

the bathroom because

that's where i get

some of my best

thinking done

and by the time i get

back i want to see

some ideas

okay

i'm still with fire

this won't do

shit empty you've had

a gun this whole

time

but that's not really

what's important

at the moment it's

empty so are you

here to make more of

your weird comments Karl

no michael i just

thought you might want

to know something

about your little

friend elvis

okay so it turns out

he knew about this

zombie dilemma since

the very start hey

what

hang on no elvis

wouldn't do that why

don't you

talk to him and find

out yourself okay

carl you know you're

a dick right yeah

just stop hanging

out in the men's

bathroom because it's

it's really creeping people out

mike we're sorting it

oh really i didn't

expect that so soon

what's the plan then

just gonna leave them

leave the zombies

the bloodthirsty

man-eaters yeah like

you said it's not so

much but one of our

own at risk

and it's not an

immediate problem i

assume zombies have to eat

so eventually they'll

either clear off

or starve

that actually makes sense

have you you've seen

elvis hey buddy

what's up

did you know about

the zombies in the

kitchen beforehand oh

yeah oh elvis what

the hell what do you

mean what the hell

you knew about the

human eating monsters

in our building and

you didn't think to

tell anyone

didn't think it was

that important how

how could you possibly think

that it's not that

important they could

literally devour us in seconds

and you didn't think

it was important

elvis you put

everyone at risk and

i know sometimes

you can be stupid

but this this is something else

mike why why are you

being like this

because elvis

this was just idiotic

i'm so angry with you

i'm livid come on

buddy how about i buy

you dinner tonight

make it up to you

in the early hours

of this morning

i received a disturbing email

attached was a sickening

image which i

can

only assume has been

passed around the

office to humiliate

i don't want to out

the person but what

i will say is that

it was of the naked

variety

but our leader of

hr maria stop it

and i will be leading a full

investigation and seminar

into finding out who

the scoundrel was

that did it

oh i thought charles

was going to be

here for the interviews too

yeah charles didn't

really work out oh

so it's just me

friendly maria from hr

i sent charles to

do the seminars is

that a good idea

jeanette told me she

slept with someone

at that party and

it's my job to find

the sick guy who

sent that picture of her what

yes and since you're

her husband well

technically

ex-husband not what

i've got written

down i think

there's been some

crossed wires anyway

since you're her

ex-husband you are

prime suspect

um why would i

want to sleep with

janette i mean we're

not even together

anymore

and between you and

i everything's

confidential

mike she's a bitch crikey

okay anyway you can

ask elvis we were

together that night

mike mentioned me yes did he

seem happy we just

answered the question

elvis

oh yeah we were

together that night

we cuddled we did

not cuddle okay

mike look we know we

went through a bit

of a rough patch

but best friends

always make it through

these kinds of

things just leave me

alone elvis

mike was what i did

really that bad you

neglected to tell us that

zombies had flooded the building

we're still in the

same position as we

were in before

i'm not talking to

elvis i don't i don't

want to hear your voice

we have our show to

do in 10 minutes but

then

i'm not talking to you

hello um eric

uh so where were you

the night of the

party oh um

we were having a

blast look i don't

but while you're here

you've got to help

me eric

and andrew are

psychopaths they've been

experimenting with me

in that room got that room

yeah um simon makes

a lot of stuff up

i think he's got chronic

lois disease or

something but you

don't know anything

about the email

um no right

can i get back to

work now wait can't

you just check the email service

holy should i tell you i'm fine

don't worry they're

just acting out

macbeth i'll get to

checking the emails

now

promise me you're not

going to yell at

me during this no

no just be quiet i

want to listen to the

music

how how did you find

out about the thing

carl told me

not that it's important

okay and that

song was punk rocker for a day

by single bullet

theory here at s rock

radio we like to

bring you the best

tunes and the best chats

live throughout the

day here at s rock

radio we are a pretty

tight community i

wouldn't say the

people working here with me

are my colleagues i

would say that they

are my friends

yes but i don't see

how that's relevant

you know i feel like

it's it's really

important for the

fans to get a real

feel of what's going

on around here you

know

stimulate all the

senses okay fine yes

we here at srock

radio are a close

community

with a few minor

exceptions mike i

really don't want to

go into this right

now i think we should

anyway listeners here

are some adverts

but we'll be right back with you

very shortly elvis

what the hell was

that

mike i just want to

be friends again

it's nice having someone

to come to with

all your problems

don't you agree yes i

agree but not when

that person does

nothing for you in

return

i don't understand elvis just go

i i'd rather you

weren't here right now

fine

i'll go and make

friends with someone

else

safety in the workplace by me

your leader and

dreamweaver charles

r haverford

safe what does it stand for

s feeling

a safe

f in your e

professional work

environment um that

doesn't seem like it holds up

please

in this three-hour

seminar i will

explain

why you are wrong

and i am right okay

i'm going to need

to speak to jason

next i really don't think it's

jason talk to me next

you know anything

to get me out of

this shit well

fuck this i'm going

bye you wanted to

get this over pretty

sharpish anything

you want to say

yeah okay what

good one you know

we take things like

this pretty seriously carl

um isn't that a half

empty bottle of

wine

by your feet you know

right right there

carl just confessed

you got the most

reasons to do this

michael already gave

a convincing alibi

which was he

said i was with elvis

and jeanette is a

bitch

yeah true and anyway

what better way to

get back at mike

than to sleep with

his ex-wife again

true

so you're gonna confess

and that's why

i got decommissioned from naam

any questions no

no questions till the end

so we found the culprit

and i warn you

this will not be taken lightly

we all know that

the picture was of

jeanette's what

shh sherlock's doing her work

but sherlock's a man

zing shut the fuck

up

anyway the uh picture

was of jeanette so

really there is only

a handful of people

it could be

a handful of people

that were stooped so

low as to sleep with her

hey i mean who could

get someone like

you sister

not better my prime

suspects were mike

and

carl and mike's

alibi was airtight

he said you were a

bitch hey you said

that was confidential

you actually said

that

maria yeah i just

slipped out i'm such a

gossip

wait so who was it

it was carl i said

that

so at the end of

the day it was all

elementary my dear what please

please stop that hang

on carl you slept

with my ex-wife

wife technically not

important also it

wasn't carl

and mike did you

seriously call me a

bitch he's got a point and

of course it was you

were just too drunk

to remember oh so you

raped my ex-wife

that makes things so much better

everybody shut up

it was me you slept

with jeanette no no

it was me

it was jason oh fuck

we were very drunk

at the party and and

it's not a regular

thing and and mike

i'm really sorry

and you sent her picture i am so

confused oh

no now it makes sense

the picture wasn't

of jeanette it was

jason

okay now is the time

any questions

i think we found

ourselves a new own

boys

the building looks

secure from here

with these weapons

we'll siege it in no

time

uh boss i think my gun

is jammed did you

leave the safety on

yeah i think i have done more on

right we'll rest here

tonight and take

the station

tomorrow at dawn

but wouldn't it be

easier to just sneak

in during the night

we've been watching

too many movies

kiddo we need our strength

we rest and eat

tonight we make our

attack tomorrow

make sure you don't

leave any ammo lying

around you don't

think it's going to

take that much

firepower to overthrow

them do your boss

yeah we've seen their

show

they don't seem all

that smart never

underestimate

these goons are just

the faces of the

company i bet whoever's

running it's a

bloody lunatic come

on jason jason come

us you on fucking idiot bye

oh no no i demand a

rematch oh we won

fair and square now give us the

cheesecake heatherford

make some new friends

used to be a trio

until the other guy

horrifically died

excuse me sir um how do you keep

changing

suits out of my way

michael i'm sulking

why shut up sorry old boy just

a little tied down

at the moment got

pressing matters at

hand like the fact

that i've got a

useless wheelie chair

race partner

um with all due

respect sir there are

still

zombies in the building

that do need to

be dealt with ah yes

the insects scuttling

around the place

like they pay

rent i put my heart

and soul into this

company michael

and nobody around here takes it

seriously

what the hell was that

probably the wind

or a

bug or something i

don't care anymore

i'll get a grip

i beg y'all are you

gonna stop whining

like a little shit

and finally admit

that the world is fucked

the rest of us have

come on we need to

start actually acting

like we want to

survive

and we can start

by investigating

whatever the hell that noise was

okay fine if it'll humor you

shit it's actually

quite nice in here

i don't know it could

do with a bit of a

hoover shut up

so where do we start

boss you boys

better stick together

one getting in trouble

or doing the fucking housework

right boys off you go

if you find anything

radio me i'm gonna

see if i can take him

down from the top

but you know you

can never be too

careful considering

the circumstances

well whatever what

if any cocky bastard

tried to sabotage

my radio station

with this beauty oh my god wait

stapler is it you

tell me

jesus christ beautiful isn't she

mortal back from now oh sheila

firearms to solve a

rodent problem oh

stop it they are flesh

eating monsters they

will kill you in

seconds if they get the chance

how many guns do you

have in there lots

getting so mad

boys wait where did

you go i'm losing

faith here

i'm starting to think

this was a bad

idea

shit

he was right behind

us as following well

he's not here now is

he jeanette why do

you think

i'm in charge of

everybody you're the

boss everyone knows you're the

controlling one who

does everything

around here i'm just

the one who funds

this

mickey mouse clubhouse

stop arguing

they're going to hear

us i agree in the

trench

enough about the war

elvis you seem to

be the only person

who's thinking

logically around here

stop making that noise

mike's right we've

got to be quiet

i recognize that whiny

and muffled voice

anywhere

open the door

why do you recognize

it as muffled

probably best not to ask

did you see any people

there i'm pretty

sure that was just zombies

well well if it's only

zombies i'm gonna

re-suggest a jabbing idea

whatever you've got

to do you'd better

do it fast

hello

hello i've been

trying you guys for

hours now

hello

jason you have to

tell us what happened

he's not well michael

can't you see

what if he's been bit

what's a harmless

bug bite going to do

but sir then don't

you're only going to

stress charles out

if you put the idea

of jason

turning into his head

agreed but we do

need to think about

a way out of here

what about this vent

so who's going in there

it's going to be

a tough job it'll

have to be someone

small and slender

guys stop i know what

you're suggesting

someone brave strong

slender I'’ll go

no no no no

michael it'll either

have to be you or

jeanette

for god's sake

can you repeat that

elvis i said no code

names

and why you mighty elephant

elvis elvis you there

you have to say over over

let's tell stories

why to keep the mood

up

what kind of stories

i don't know anyone

got

anything in the

chamber speaking of

chambers in the trenches

uh jeanette how did

your mic meet we met

at bar

and he asked me to dance it's

only a few years ago

actually things

pass so soon it's

weird to think

about oh all right

i hope everyone else

is okay does anyone

know why carl went

you all know why he

didn't get the job

as co-presenter right

no why he cried in the audition

it only been about a

day since he lost

his brother yet the

guy tried for it

yes he's a creepy

fucker hangs around in

bathrooms women's or

men's wears women's

clothes and

let's be honest there's

probably a long

list of reasons why

he's so creepy

but that guy's tougher

than you think

he's been through hell

and he's remained

strong

things are getting

deep in here i think

we need more stories

you need to do is

of the event now
