[ending lines]

This isn’t the end. Not even close. We’ve lost entire cities. We still don’t know how it started. We bought ourselves some time. But it’s given us a chance. Others have found a way to push back. If you can fight, fight. Help each other. Be prepared for anything. Our war has just begun.

You're with CIA?

Ex-CIA Agent

But they're not with me.

Gerry Lane

You're letting people in.

Jurgen Warmbrunn

Every human being we save is one less zombie to fight.

Gerry Lane

If I could get into India, where would I start? Who would I speak to?

Jurgen Warmbrunn

India is a black hole. Forget about patient zero.

Gerry Lane

I can't do that. It's too late for me to build a wall. I'm running out of time. I need specifics. I need answers...

Jurgen Warmbrunn
[Cutting him off]

I don't have answers. All you can do is find a way to hide.

WHO researcher 3

Mr. Lane believes we can use such a disease against the undead.

WHO researcher 1
[Flabbergasted]

I would give you points for such originality, Mr. Lane, if we hadn't already tried that, first thing. One of the many things a virus or bacteria needs to thrive is a live host.

WHO researcher 2

A functioning circulatory system.

WHO researcher 1

I'm afraid it boils down to one simple fact...

WHO researcher 4

You can't make a dead person sick.

Gerry Lane

It's not for them. It's for us. I believe these things have a weakness. And that weakness is weakness. Our weakness. I have witnessed them literally bypass people. Walk right around them like a river around a rock. Why? I think, because those people were sick. I think they were terminal. And these things could sense it. I think they're spreading a pathogen, and they need a healthy host.

WHO researcher 2

But even if you're right, I mean, infecting the populace with a lethal illness is not exactly a cure.

Gerry Lane

It's not a cure. It's camouflage. It's camouflage.

Gerry Lane
[Preparing to enter zombie-infested building]

Sure you wanna do this?

W.H.O. Doctor

Course I'm not. Let's go.
