Z Nation (2014–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - Home Sweet Zombie - full transcript

The survivors visit Warren's home town, but will they find her long missing husband? Oh, yeah - there's also a zombie tornado.

Previously on Z Nation.

Whoa. It's a real live baby.

Don't hold him like he's a live grenade.

Me and babies, not so much.

We're on a high priority mission

to get this man to a CDC lab in California.

Can't worry about some raggedy
ass group of civilians.

Nothing raggedy ass about
this group of civilians, sir.

Relax.

Garnett and Warren know what they're doing.

There you are.



Ah, thank you, honey.

Mmmm-mmm. Nothing like the first cup.

I will see your vicodin

and raise you one tetracycline.

Call.

Three of a kind.

Full house.

Aces high.

Man.

That's five hands in a row.

If you're gonna continue to use my deck

you need to quit pulling cards out your ass.

Oh boo hoo.

Hey shhh. Hold on, he's back on.



Friends, I'm talking about
mean weather coming in fast.

Some reports of tornados.

Find shelter and take cover.

It's dangerous out there.
More so than usual.

Now back to the soothing
sounds of the Apocalypse.

You know after he was so
wrong about that chopper

weatherman's a pretty
good job for that geek.

You're up.

All good?

Peaceful night.

Your stalker said there's
a storm front coming in.

How is it out there?

Cloudy with a chance of zombie.

Okay, you two get some rest.

You got it.

I've had worse days.

It's not a bad set up.

Mmm-hmmm.

You know,

I'm really starting to feel at home here.

I'm thinking about putting
a barbecue right here.

This one needs to be flipped.

I really like what they did with
the landscaping, the flowers,

everything. So homey.

Yeah. Too bad they're dead.

Yeah.

Okay.

Sorry. Wrong room.

Okay.

Oh my God. A bed.
When was the last time we did it in a bed?

What do you think?

Naked?

Like no clothes?

Full commando, baby.

Oh my God, you are such a romantic.

The...

blanket...

I was just...

Sorry.

Scared of that one.

Best not to mess.

You know if we breed those two,
it'd be all over for the zombies

Can't remember the last time
I snuck off with somebody.

I can't remember the last time I wanted to.

You still think about him?

Antoine?

I try not to.

And I never heard what happened,
so there's not much point.

What about you?

I used to think about Amy
and the kids everyday.

Every time I closed my eyes,
I saw the end all over again.

It got to a certain point
where I just gave up.

Didn't care if I lived or died.

And a funny thing happened.

I didn't die.

And with everything that's happened

it's been harder and harder
to remember the past.

I guess that's a good thing, right?

Guess so.

Are we close by your hometown?

I know what you're thinking,
and the answer is no.

Just swing by on our way west.

Why? It's long gone.

He's gone.

And I just wish that I
would've waited for him

and said goodbye before the
last time I got shipped out.

Don't you want to know for sure?

You can't start forgetting
what you don't know.

That does not look good.

It's tornado weather.

That was close.

Hey,

hey.

Are you okay?

Uh, yeah.

No.

No, I dunno.

Incoming!

Puppies and kittens! Time to go!

Everybody out the back!

I give you mercy.

♪ Have Mercy

♪ Oh, have mercy ♪♪

I hate blind spots, boy.

Make me anxious.

Mess with my digestion.

That was funny.

Sorry, I forgot you.

Oh that's right, you're on the wagon.

Sorry, I forgot.

The only thing worse than
drinking alone is not drinking.

Hello, beautiful.

What are we looking at here?

Wow.

Dang.
They don't call it Tornado Alley for nothing.

I am not drunk.

You're drunk.

No, your mom's drunk.

In our
continuing effort to bring you

up to the minute information,
we at Z-TV have acquired

a National Weather Service satellite

that they aren't using anymore.

But that's not important.

We now go to John Smith,
southern weather correspondent

to get his opinion on the story.

This is the badassest
storm this weatherman has ever seen.

From the Gulf of Mexico right
up the Mississippi Valley,

trouble is brewing.

I don't know if they call this
thing a turricane or a tornado

or what.
But if you're anywhere south of Chicago

or east of the Rockies,

I'm issuing a get your
butt in a bunker warning.

Hey,
I hope you guys are getting this.

Addy and friends.

You guys got to seek
shelter immediately because

this is bad. And

when you seek shelter immediately

and after you do that,

you need to contact me
and tell me where you are.

And I'll update you with
further instructions. Okay?

All right, well this is Citizen Z,
and I'm signing off.

Who's Addy?

So which way do we go?

The storm is pushing north from the gulf.

If we make it to the I-70, we can outrun it.

That storm is going faster than
that craptastic truck ever will.

Yeah, we got to get off the road.
You heard Citizen Z.

We got to seek shelter.

What we need is to get the hell out of here.

I ain't stopping just cuz some
punk with a satellite says so.

Okay, hang on.
Am I missing something?

You did not drag my ass this far

so that mankind's hope could
get sucked up by a tornado,

did you?

Hey, Addy.

You know you've been quiet.

Just want to make sure you're okay.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Just,

you know, zombies.

Anybody got a mint?

Castle Point. That's your hometown right?

Whoa. Look at that storm coming in.

Okay, fine. You win.

Welcome home, Roberta.

So you know this town?

Born and raised here.

We need to take cover.

Is there someplace safe nearby?

Yeah, there's a storm cellar in my house.

How close by is your house?

It's not far.

I knew these people.

My neighbor.

My boss.

My...

Is that him?

Who's him?

Oh, no.

No. We are not here searching for dead hubby,
are we?

Let's go.

Shelter's this way.

Get going.

It's so green.

I never seen a sky look like that.

I've only seen tornadoes on TV.

I don't like tornadoes.

I'm pretty sure they don't like me either.

That it?

That's it.

10K, come on!

Come on!

If he's in there and he's...

I will not hesitate.

Home sweet zombie.

Get out of that chair!

Go on and get out of there!

That's my husband's favorite chair!

All right.

Uh, upstairs is all good.

I got this.

Please don't shoot us.

My husband is hurt.

What are you doing in my house?

The fireman said we'd be safe here.

Here we go.

Bark like a dog for me.

Well I wasn't talking to you,
but I'm impressed.

God.

From a Category Three to
the Seventh Circle of Hell.

Delta-Xray-Delta,
I hope you guys aren't underneath that.

Come on. Drop me a note.

Send up a flare. Give me a ring.

I can't help you if I can't find you.

You're going to be okay.

He's a doctor.

Uh,

well they sorta just call me Doc.

No.

No doctor. I just... need a nap.

Oh that, no that wouldn't be good, dude.

Do not nap.

Don't let him fall asleep.
He's got a bad concussion at least.

Rick? Rick?

Help him!

Basement's clear.

Is he gonna be okay?

Is this the fireman?

What?

Is this the fireman that brought you here?

I don't know.

Maybe. He was wearing a helmet.

Maybe it's him.

I think it is.

Thank you.

We need to get out of here
before this storm hits.

And go where, huh?

What are we supposed to do,
just sit heres cure.

We can ride it out down there.

Let's just gather some
supplies before it hits.

Kitchen was pretty well stocked up.

There's water and canned food.

No medical supplies, no batteries though.

We need to get our communications up.

You two, go out in the neighborhood.

See what you can find. But don't go far.

Be sure to get back before the storm hits.

Janey what are all these people doing here?

My parents will be home
for dinner any minute.

Is he gonna make it?

Is that a serious question?

I don't know.

He got cracked on the dome.

Okay, I for one

do not want to be trapped
in a basement with this guy

when he starts craving brains.

Don't mind him.

His mama didn't raise him right.

Well if I had the proper
meds or a first aid kit...

You know the fire station may
still have first aid supplies.

Hey,

lock down the basement.

If that kid turns,
I want you to be right on that.

Yeah, of course.

Keep an eye on Murphy.
We'll be back before the party starts.

Addy!

Addy!

Hey!

What?

What?

What?

This place brings back so many memories.

What?!

My first kiss.

With the fireman?

Antoine, yeah.

Look out!

I totally forgot about that kiss until now!

That must have been some kiss!

It was more than just a kiss!

It was a kiss that explained things

We couldn't seem to say to each other!

Look who's the big romantic!

I think that's the first
personal story you ever told me!

I loved that boy.

This way.

Doesn't look like anybody's
been here for a while.

Sorry.

Let's find what we can and get out of here.

First aid kits look good.

Hardly touched.

Even some morphine.

Don't tell Doc.

You know he could still
be around here somewhere.

Yeah.

I sent this after the Battle
of New Jersey two years ago.

Closest we got to a goodbye.

I deployed while he was on duty.

I should've waited for him to get home.

Look.

Someone's living in your house.
The pantry's stocked.

That couple said they met a fireman.

There's a chance he's...

That life is gone.

I've known that for a long time.

We don't have much time.

Shelter! Now!

Pick your poison.

It's safer in here than out there.

Okay. Do you see him?

It's the living against the dead now.

All right.

I'm out.

Me too.

Behind you.

Antoine?

Look out!

Antoine.

Is that him?

No.

No, it's his best friend,

Dearborn.

Matt Dearborn.

Here.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Easy now.

Sorry.

Tell those frat boys out
there to turn down the death metal.

I'll call the cops again.

I'll tell them.

The dude's brain is getting
crushed by the swelling.

We need to relieve the pressure.

Great. How we gonna do that?

Uh, I don't know exactly. But...

But I saw this once on an episode of ER.

We need to drain the blood out I think.

So I need something sharp and pointy to...

Like a corkscrew, an ice pick?

Murphy!

Murphy? A little help.

Damn it.

Murphy!

What the hell, man?

Murphy!

The world's coming apart around us, man.

And you decide it's time for a haircut?

Keep him away from Rick!

Murphy, I need your help.

Find something sharp to penetrate his skull.

Sharp enough to penetrate his skull. Got it.

About time we piked him.

What is he talking about?!

Way to read the room!

What is he talking about?

Don't, don't worry.
Nobody's gonna pike your husband.

Where's Addy?

Addy!

Addy? Addy?

What, what is this?

I don't know.

I don't know.

Mack! I need you, man!

- Go.
- All right.

How we doin' Murphy?!

Thanks.

Okay.

Just hold him still.

Now look, if this works right
there could be a lot of blood.

But that's good.

That's a good thing because we
want to relieve the pressure.

And then that way the
brain will have room to...

Don't watch.

Oh damn.

I knew this was gonna happen.

Oh...

Don't look at me... doctor.

Jeez, kid.

As a hammer. A hammer.

Oh.

That's good.

Oh God.

Well I guess that relieved the pressure.

Is this gonna work?

I don't know.

I didn't see the end of the episode.

He's gonna be all right.
I know it. I know it.

Here. Just apply pressure.

Just like that.

Troy.

Vince.

Mike.

And Dearborn.

I give you mercy.

May God give you peace.

You ready?

Let's take it to 'em.

Where'd they all go?

Come on. Let's go.

That's good.

That's good.

Maybe I should've pulled the drill bit

while he was still knocked out.

Roberta!

Does that thing look mad to you?

Is that what I think?

They ain't sharks!

Really, God?! Really?!

Now! We got to get inside!

Come on! There's no time!

Let's go!

Murphy, take care of that zombie!

Get it, Doc!

How is he?

I don't know.

What did you do?

Oh, decompressive craniectomy.

I put a drill to the dome.

Oh.

Where's 10K and Cassandra?

I don't know.

Warren!

Murphy! What are you doing?!

Pike that thing now!

We're not gonna make it back! Take shelter!

Run for the car!

Roberta!

Roberta!

Roberta!

Roberta! What are you doing?!

Roberta!
Can you hear me?!

Please don't do this!

What are you doing?

The storm's gonna come any second!

Come on! Hurry up!

Come on, Roberta!

Roberta! What are you doing, Roberta?!
Open the door!

Mack, help me get him under the table,
will ya?

Okay.

On my count.

Shut up, Doc.

Get the blankets.

Roberta! Can you hear me?!

I have to wait for him this time, Charlie.

I owe him that much.

No. No! Goddamn it! Come down right now!

It is not safe up here!

It's like you said.

I can't start forgetting...

until I know.

Roberta, please don't do this.

Got it. That's it!

Where's Warren?

She's not coming.

What?

What?

She's not coming?

She's gonna get killed out there.

She's got to get down here.

She's not coming.

Murphy.

You kidding me?

Quit screwing around with this thing.

Mercy.

10K.

Okay.

Hang on.

Oh no! Oh no!

Oh God.

I waited for you.

Well that was fun.

Warren.

You don't look so good, chief.

I need to get out of here.

I need to get out of here now.

Roberta!

Roberta!

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hi, Charlie.

Why didn't you...

How did you...

I tried to go home.

I did.

But I'm still here.

Thank God you are.

I'm still here.

You're crazy.

Yeah.

You're crazy. You know that, right?

A little bit, yeah.

Warren.

Oh. Thank you.

Thank you.

Man... If I see a munchkin, I'm gonna freak.

I need to go!

I'm not sure if I care for that look.

Nobody ask to.

New haircut.

Same Murphy.

Hey, Doc. Thanks.

Thank yo tr...

Do you have anything for the pain?

Oh, I...

I am so sorry.

I wish I did.

Oh, hell.

Here.

Take it easy on those, that's good stuff.

Are you folks gonna be all right?

Rick's got family nearby.

We're gonna keep looking for them.

But thanks.

Thanks for everything.

What?

You were right. I did need to come back.

Even if I never know for sure
what happened to Antoine,

I said my goodbye.

I know I'm okay with being here now.

With you.

And I'm good with that too.

I always wanted to do that.

I could tell.

Survivors of the world,
hello.

If you're hearing this, congrats.
You're still alive.

You are the baddest of the badasses.

Fearing neither man nor
twister nor living dead.

My headset is off to you.
