Previously on Age of the Living Dead.
This is it.
With the synthesis of this blood,
we are no longer reliant on the humans.
I told my ex wife.
She can be trusted.
And over her, we must advance the attack.
They're watching us, wanting to see what we can do,
what we will do.
There's a problem with the wall.
You're protected but you can't see what you're caging.
Sephora?
It's on its way.
It's a silver nitrate compound.
Turns newly turned vampires weak,
or at least as weak as humans.
She's a soulless killer, son.
Dad, she's not.
You're gonna sit there
and tell me she never killed a human?
She's never killed anyone.
Next time you see her, if you see her,
ask her what happened to Max.
You have so many faces.
I get the most beautiful
thing in the world for free.
I wonder which one you're showing me.
Gerry, the power to the base has gone down.
The UV system is online.
Gerry?
It's tragic seeing you like this Gerry.
That you Max?
You look terrified.
So scared.
I'm not scared at all.
Why don't you come out
and let me see your face and I'll show you.
Oh, you're scared Gerry.
You're so scared.
I can hear your heart.
I can hear how fast it beats.
I pity you Max.
You should envy me.
Can you even imagine what it feels like
to be as intimate with the world around you as I am?
The tiniest little details, the smallest of subtleties.
I can smell your blood Gerry.
I can actually smell it.
You're nothin' Max.
You're not a human, you're not a vampire,
you're just a freak.
Not to worry Gerry.
I'll kill all the others first.
And you'll live, for now.
I'll be sure to bring you the corpse of your son
so that when I need you Gerry, when I turn you,
the last thing your pathetic human self
will see is the lifeless body of your little bastard.
Max.
Wait right there.
We'll see if I can find the boy.
You don't have to look very far.
Adam!
Quiet!
You're being rude.
Your son and I are gonna have a little chat, aren't we?
I gotta ask you a question though, Max.
Ask me.
Do you hear my heartbeat?
That's right, not afraid.
Dad!
I thought I told you to go?
You weren't the only one who made a promise.
Jesus, Adam.
I thought you said that she killed him.
She turned him.
I have no idea why.
What was that?
It's silver nitrate.
You throw it at their eyes.
Yvonne showed me.
It just disables newly turned vampires.
She's trying to help us, Dad.
She's trying to help us?
How does leavin' a turned vampire
at our front doorstep help us?
Back up, back up.
Watch your back.
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa!
That's far enough.
Yvonne!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey, whoa, whoa.
Stand down Gerry.
Who the hell are you?
I'm not the enemy.
British?
That's right.
You're in good company mate.
You wanna lower that weapon?
What are you doin' here?
I'm the cavalry.
From England?
Colonel Christopher Lowe, Special Air Service.
Yeah, well you're very bloody welcome,
but my next question is a bit inevitable.
How?
Yeah.
Despite what you think,
not everyone has forgotten about this country.
You've still not answered my question.
What are you doin' here?
What's that?
That is Sephora.
And what's Sephora?
A cure.
A cure for what?
Vampirism.
Cure, really?
To wipe it from the world, finally.
That's why you came here,
to introduce the cure to us.
London sent me to dispatch the cure,
offer you the chance to mass produce it, to use it.
Why not just drop it on us like a chemical weapon?
Can't be done.
Why not?
We developed it but it's still in its early stages.
What do you mean?
We have to get close to use it.
Drive it into a vampire's heart.
Is that a joke?
Ever tried to get close to a vampire?
Why should we believe this miracle 11th hour cure?
It's a bit convenient isn't it?
Considering the company you keep,
maybe you should convince me the West hasn't failed under
the influence of the vampires.
She was a prisoner.
A prisoner that could've killed us at any time.
She's not a prisoner.
She chose to be with us.
I see.
That's why you want her to come back.
I gave you my reasons.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, enough of that.
Where'd this cure come from then?
I don't know.
What do you mean you don't know?
I'm a soldier.
I follow orders.
Why doesn't matter to me.
Well it matters to me, so why now?
What do you mean?
You quarantined us!
Ya cut us off from the rest of the world!
So why right now?
Well maybe because you're gonna take
the fight to the vampires.
So you do watch us.
I knew it.
It's a matter of trust isn't it?
You don't trust the cure, whether it'll work.
Well, there's only one way to prove it.
Find me a vampire.
Fine, you can try it on Max.
Well it seems to me like we need another vampire.
Delta team, Athena is with her position.
Give her some privacy.
It's barely better then it was last time.
Now this will help you sleep,
but only take one or you'll feel drowsy when you wake up.
And this one is for pain and this one is for nausea.
Stay away from alcohol.
Myself and Andrew have made sure
that your catering staff knows not to give you wined foods.
Don't worry.
I haven't told them about your condition,
only that you'd be healthier with a new diet.
Thank you, Sam.
If you feel an increase in pain then give me a call.
If they find out that you knew
I had cancer and didn't tell them,
there will be hell to pay.
Did you know who Samuel Mudd was?
A relation of yours?
No.
He was the doctor
that treated John Wilkes Booth's broken leg straight
after he shot Abraham Lincoln.
He knew that Booth was America's most wanted man,
but he treated his leg anyway because he was a doctor.
Even when he went to jail,
he stood by his decision to treat anyone in pain.
You may be the President but you are someone in pain.
Even if they revoke my license
or throw me in jail down the line,
that's for someone else to decide.
I'll stick by my decision, whatever the consequence is.
Of course you do know that he was eventually pardoned
by President Andrew Johnson in 1869?
You did know the story.
Why didn't you stop me?
Because who doesn't love hearing stories
about great people doing the right thing?
So you're a spy?
I've been called many things.
I watch the watchers.
Well, will you watch someone for me?
Why?
What do you gain by knowing his agenda?
Me?
Nothing.
This is for the betterment of us all.
Very well.
Marcus?
Watch him.
Consider it done.
Report your findings directly back to the elders.
And if I'm discovered?
Hm, well, we'll both be killed.
A cure?
How is that possible?
I don't know how it works, I just know it works.
Have you seen it for yourself?
No.
Doc, what do you think?
I have no idea.
The test I ran showed the chemicals are completely safe.
Even the combination.
Completely?
To us, yeah.
But her?
I don't know.
All right, let's do this.
No, we can't do it.
I don't think you're giving the orders mate.
Adam, just back up.
No dad.
She's a prisoner, she doesn't deserve to be experimented on.
It's not right.
Jesus kid, you are a damn vampire lover aren't you?
Lucky, stand down.
Simon, you know this is wrong to experiment on her.
They're monsters.
No more than you are Lucky.
You son of a...
Hey, hey!
Don't ever step to my son.
This is a mistake, Sir.
Enough!
Doc, prep the syringe.
No!
Adam, back off!
No, Dad!
You're so filled with hurt and anger
over what happened to Mom you can't see what you're doing.
I am doing this because of Mom!
I love her!
Attention all personnel,
once storm clear up is complete,
please submit damage reports to team leaders.
Adam?
What, what?
They don't have to do this.
I know.
I want to do this.
Will it kill me?
It might.
Do it.
No!
You can't.
I can't live as a vampire, not anymore.
If you love me, you wouldn't wanna see me suffer.
Yvonne, please...
She's made a decision.
You ready?
Maybe we should hold her down.
You've obviously not seen her other side.
I suggest we just take a step back.
Doc, do your thing.
Good luck.
Yvonne?
I don't feel anything.
You sure?
How long should this take?
I don't know.
Just give her a minute.
Whatever snake oil you just gave us isn't working.
What do you wanna do now?
We still have to move out of the haven.
Yvonne?
Is this normal?
I don't know!
Madame President?
General.
The CM's are ready to launch.
Are all the drones targeted?
Yes, Ma'am.
Would you avoid a prayer at this time General?
I always find that Shakespeare sets
the tone a lot better than a prayer.
What would it be then?
"Once more unto the breach, dear friends."
Launch.
Ma'am.
We have confirmation go for launch.
What are you doing here?
So this is why you're late.
I don't venture out too much.
Hm, why now?
To tell us the entire team's been wiped out?
I see word spreads fast.
Hm, never send a man to do a woman's job.
Though, I would enjoy trade insults with you all night,
there is a very small window.
Is that an order?
A request.
Why?
Never underestimate the strength, power,
determination, of a mother trying to protect her young.
Get me there and I will bring her back.
She's with the humans in no man's land.
A resistance fighters as far as I can tell.
And they haven't killed her?
Apparently not.
We received a transmission, a brief one,
but interesting nonetheless.
I'll cut straight to the point Madame President.
The vampire population we're about to invade
will break loose everywhere.
I hate you.
I hate you too.
They developed applied synthesis
so that they can replace our need for sunlight and blood.
I got this information from a brand new
- choice of messenger. - Pause it.
What are we looking at?
Did you know that one of my abilities
is to read people's minds?
Just a tiny drop of their blood
allows me inside their minds,
where I can see all kinds of wonderful things.
Memories, secrets and even loved ones.
I think I've seen this face before.
How about you, Marie?
Marie?
That was my human name.
From your human life.
What does that have to do with anything?
The man holding our daughter is my husband.
So?
Will you take the mission?
Yes.
They're in flight.
As we speak, Sir.
So it seems you were right.
Prime Minster.
Prime Minister I have been advised
that they feel that the strike on the drones
is a precursor to a nuclear strike.
Aren't they all ours?
Seven of them are French and German, Sir.
Prime Minister, they'll want action.
Very well.
Contact the Japanese.
I'll need a moment with their Prime Minister.
The fail safe?
Yes.
Prime Minister, it will take four hours
before the Japanese can activate the fail safe,
enough time for the Americans to launch.
I know.
Matthew?
Sir?
Who first flew to the United States?
Uh, I believe it was a colleague of mine, Sheena.
I believe she was romantically involved
with the current newest Chief of Staff.
Get her in.
We're gonna open up a dialogue.
Uh, Prime Minister I do need
to remind you that that would be
a serious breech in quarantine procedure.
Yes, but I need to know Matthew.
I need to know.
The millions of victims
of the American vampire epidemic
will be in the hearts and minds
of Britain today as the world marks
the 10th anniversary of the American Annihilation.
The night when the superpower was overrun.
The then newly discovered creatures of the night ravaged
the population killing millions
and turning countless others into their own kind.
In an unparalleled act of global solidarity,
Britain and China lead the United Nations
in the building of the so called Walls of Independence,
quarantining the threat permanently,
backed by a state of the art fleet of drones,
ships and satellites that guard the borders
and disable all communications.
Multi faith commemorations will be held
at Saint Paul's Cathedral attended
by the Prime Minister John Adams
along with a service at the Trafalgar Square Memorial.
It is expected Mr. Adam's will honor
former United States President Andrew Whitmore
who disarmed the countries nuclear warheads
before the army was overrun so they could
not be used against the world
by the new vampire inhabitants.
This isn't what I'd do.
Well, that is why you are not in charge.
How does it make sense to destroy our base?
Because if it has to go down that way,
at least we can take a few of them with us.
Well, this place has become home.
You know?
It's all I've ever known ever since the world went to hell.
And now everything's just so...
God, I told you it was a stupid idea
to let that thing stay here.
Pass me the wire cutters.
If she hadn't...
If she hadn't been here Lucky, you'd be dead.
I recall her saving your life just yesterday,
God knows she didn't have to.
What?
So should we give her a uniform or something?
She's not a solider.
But she could be a Valkyrie.
A what?
Valkyrie's were mythological female creatures
sent down by the God's to decide
which soldiers lived and died during battle.
She's not a God.
No, Valkyrie's aren't Gods.
But like her they do straddle the line
between human and non human worlds.
They had an infatuation for soldiers
that demonstrated true spirit and bravery.
Well that's me.
I know Lucky.
You're not afraid to speak your mind
and you fight like hell.
But if all hell breaks loose,
you better bet that I'm standing by Adam.
Adam's not a fighter.
No, he's not.
But if I were a bettin' man,
in any battle that comes our way,
you better believe that girl
would move heaven and hell to protect him.
So, don't make an enemy of him.
You done?
Attention all personnel...
Yeah.
All done.
Off limits.
Alpha two nine please respond.
Alpha two nine, please respond.
Alpha two nine here.
It's good to hear your voice, Sir.
Likewise.
How did it go?
Different.
Things are more complicated that it seems.
Sir?
The vampires are about to attack us here.
We will be overrun.
Make sure the prisoner gets here.
We're on our way.
Good luck Sir.
Alpha two nine out.
Sir, we've got a bogie coming in fast.
That's bloody close.
How soon?
ETA five minutes.
Right.
And this region here, vampires were also in this region.
For obvious reasons... Prime Minister?
Ah.
Everyone, I need the room.
Prime Minister.
Prime Minister, this is...
Forget the introductions.
I can't say I'm impressed with
the fact that this government has been lying to its people.
Yes, I don't see the need for any introductions.
Exactly.
Then it's not just this government is it?
All of you keeping the fact
that there are millions of Americans alive and well.
It's just over 150 million.
What?
150 million.
That's how many.
Oh my God.
If a government lies Sheena
they'll make sure it's a whopper.
I'm culpable.
I may have inherited this lie
but I still made a choice to maintain it.
The women, children?
Yes.
How could you make a choice like that?
Because we have women, children,
innocents who need protecting.
Do you know what the vampire population is?
No.
250 million.
Keeping them locked in with no key.
It saved us.
That means...
That means this is the largest
collateral damage figure in history.
That means that they had no choice,
those children over there.
No.
But like you Sheena, I can't live with it.
I must at least try to make the present something better.
Less shameful.
What am I doing here?
Matthew informs me you were the one
who first received contact from the U.S.
Yes.
We have a way of getting through to the U.S.
so you can speak to them again.
Why?
Because I want to speak to
the President of the United States.
General?
Down Madame President.
All of them?
They sure are.
The window is open for
a full nuclear launch across the East Coast.
Hello.
How'd you get this number?
Damn bastards fell right out of the sky
just like paper airplanes Madame President.
Excellent.
The silos are reporting that
the nuclear weapons are ready to launch.
We need to stroke now while they're napping.
She's kind of in a meeting right now.
I'll try.
Okay.
Uh, just a moment.
Ma'am?
- We have a four hour window. - Okay.
That is shrinking
- by the second. - Put 'em through.
The General is right.
By now they would already be aware of what we just done.
We need to strike.
Ma'am?
Right now?
What is it?
Can this wait?
You're gonna wanna take this.
Who is it?
It's the Prime Minister of Great Britain.
Did he say the Prime Minister?
Right now?
Yeah.
Oh, after 10 years we don't hear
from them and they call us.
It's a stall tactic to keep you
on the phone while they scramble more drones.
I'll take it.
It's not their fight Ma'am.
Not yet it's not, but if this half cocked plan
doesn't work then it will be.
And we'll have infected the world rather
then protected them from a greater evil.
Put him through.
I like you Lucky,
but let's make sure it doesn't happen again.
Yes Sir.
Doc, any change?
She's warm and she has pulse which means she's alive.
So it worked?
Yeah.
We have a cure, but more importantly we have a weapon.
Gerry?
It worked, but you don't look like you have good news.
I don't.
Incoming aircraft from the East Coast.
Your team?
No, they won't be here in time.
The aircraft is five minutes out.
In that case I'll man the alarms.
Get ready.
Evacuate the wounded.
Yeah.
Adam, you're leaving.
Pay attention everybody!
We're evacuating the haven in five minutes!
Marie, give me a hand.
What about you?
I'll be right behind you.
Son, you, no arguing, okay?
I've gotta get you to safety,
and you've got to get her to safety.
She's one of us now.
Be safe.
- I love you. - Evacuation
quarantine has been initiated.
Go, go.
Go!
This is not a drill.
Point is you're going
to have to stand down that attack.
And why would I do that?
Madame President, if you think the world
is going to stand by while you launch nuclear missiles,
you're very much mistaken.
What choice do I have?
The radio active fall out.
You know which direction it will come.
That's why you've timed the attack for this time of year.
Most of Eastern Europe and Asia
still hasn't recovered from what Russia did.
Please.
Is that why?
Because you asked so polite.
I can understand your anger.
After almost 10 years in isolation
you cannot begin to understand my anger.
You realize that you woulda done the same
had the situation been reversed.
I would never have left a man behind, especially an ally,
and that used to mean something between our two nations.
I cannot speak for what I would've done,
but I understand why they did it.
They felt that your country was lost.
It was hopeless.
You were overrun by the creatures.
And that was when we needed your help
the most Prime Minister.
In that hour of need.
Since the quarantine our country
has existed in a constant climate of fear,
trying to appease them with our blood
in the hopes that they won't slaughter us while we sleep.
I cannot begin to imagine what that must be like.
No and that is the problem,
you cannot imagine what it is like here.
You can only rely on satellites and reports
and guesses as to what it's like but you'll never know.
Well let us help you now.
You will have to excuse me
if I just go ahead and don't believe you.
I can understand that.
The simple fact is you left us to die.
You cut us off like a tumor, a cancer,
but now that we threaten your world,
you're finally able to reach out to us, to save us.
Self preservation is not an endearing quality.
Very well.
Europe left you.
We abandoned you.
We have a way for you to live,
to help without burning the world in the process.
What?
We have a cure.
Madame President?
I'm here.
I can see that's caught your attention.
How do we know it's real?
It landed in New Mexico 26 hours ago.
Here?
Yes.
I can't trust you.
Fine, don't trust me but trust your people.
Confirm it with them.
Confirm it before you launch.
I'll be calling back in an hour.
Very well.
Here's hoping.
Holy cow.
Yeah.
What do you think?
I don't know but you need to find out
what the fell is going on out there at the haven.
Ma'am, how long do I have?
I don't know, as long as I can give you.
An hour, two hours,
as long as I can hold off the launch for.
And if it is there and the haven's been attacked?
I know.
We've just given them the very thing
that could've ended this forever.
Do you ever feel like you're being watched Tom?
Yeah.
So, she confirmed she is preparing a nuclear attack?
Apparently so.
We've managed a low level hack into their systems.
They're running a detailed projection for us now.
Wait, if we can hack into their systems
can't we just disable it from here?
Yeah, we can't get deep enough into their system.
We can observe but that's it.
We also have confirmation from our spy satellites.
Yes?
Mm, it's intense exhaust buildup
in key areas alongside the West Coast.
Missile silos?
They found a way to arm the missiles.
How?
Well, 10 years will afford a lot
of time to crack a code Minister.
Was this woman even elected President?
What do we know about?
Well she was a junior senator before the outbreak.
One can only assume that she's...
The last government official alive.
The fact of the matter is we know nothing about her.
And she knows nothing about us.
She doesn't trust us.
For all they know we may have all been turned.
Might actually be easier to swallow
then the fact that we abandoned them.
Prime Minister, we shouldn't be doing anything fool hearty
over the fact that we feel guilty.
Do you have children Minister?
Three.
I often wonder how many families died
because we left them.
You're letting personal feelings get in the way of logic.
Am I?
Or are we just cowards?
This is preposterous.
Europe will not be impressed
if we break quarantine procedures
over a misplaced sense of right and wrong.
Those values changed when what were monsters
and myth became real and feasted upon the innocent.
Perhaps, or maybe we're all monsters as well.
Defense of the realm Prime Minister.
Remember that, defense of the realm.
Prime Minister?
Yes, what is it now?
We just received conformation from Tokyo.
They have their backup protocols in place.
Well.
Wait, what are the backup protocols?
Uh, who are you?
A tax payer.
Excuse me?
Minister.
It's a contingency to prevent
the launch of nuclear missiles.
They were put in place in case
the missiles were never disarmed.
What is it, an abort button?
Not quite.
It's an EMP, electro magnetic pulse.
Destroys anything with electrical signal,
including nuclear warheads.
Yes, but that's not all is it?
No.
So it disables anything with an electrical signal?
So they'll be set back to the stone ages?
Yes.
They'll become completely defenseless.
They'll be open to attack.
They'll be slaughtered.
What would you have me do?
Let the Americans launch?
Let them turn the East Coast into a nuclear wasteland?
Allow radioactive materials to come to the East shores?
There must be something else you can do.
Yes, but I can't take the chance that I can't.
They will die though and then you are left with...
An entire country populated by the creatures.
An enemy you can attack, an enemy you can destroy.
The EMP will disable the vampires technology as well.
And then what?
Systematic air strikes?
Destroy the country from the air?
How can you sleep at night?
How can you just sit there?
Sheena, may I remind you this is classified information.
I've had enough.
And that was foolish.
What if she decides to tell the press or worse?
Then maybe we'd all get what we deserve.
As soon as we get the wounded loaded
we'll make out for Camp Navajo.
Now it's about 250 clicks Northwest.
Now the road to get there is not good.
It's completely washed out and the terrain is rough.
It should take about six to eight hours...
I got this!
No, no, no!
Don't!
Watch that they slow them down.
No!
Come on!
Hey!
Everybody form a line!
Form the line!
You get this to LA.
The only thing that's important.
I'm not abandoning this post.
You go!
Let's go!
Crazy!
Go, go!
Lucky, get everybody!
Come on!
Come on, come on!
No!
Get out of my way.
That's not the orders and you know it.
Our standing orders are to win this war,
to be the frontline for human kind.
You know?
So let's get back there and do what
we're supposed to be doing.
This is the weapon we need to win this war.
But we can't outrun them.
Well we're gonna try.
And just leave our friends to die?
Damn it Lucky!
Do you think I wanna leave them back there?
Well then why are we going it?
Because it's the right thing to do.
And abandon our posts?
Don't give me that.
You wouldn't know the right thing
if it came up and bit you in the neck.
What the hell is that supposed to mean?
You left Adam alone in his cell with Yvonne.
Oh, did you think we wouldn't find out about that?
She's lying.
Adam's the one who is.
Adam is too loved up to know
what's real and what's not real, okay?
And it's gonna get us all killed.
No, I'm not sure that killin' Adam
is gonna convince me you're on the right side.
I wasn't actually gonna let her kill him.
I was usin' it as an excuse to show
you guys that she can't be trusted.
As far as I can tell there's only
one person who can't be trusted.
You know you're the one who's...
Now what?
Hold here.
Hey Yvonne, come on.
Yvonne we need to get out of here, okay?
Come on.
We gotta get you.
Come on, let's go, let's go.
Come on.
Is anyone receiving me?
Over.
I repeat this is Lieutenant Jack Williams
of the British Armed Forces calling
any Las Angeles army base or outpost.
Come in.
I say again, this is Lieutenant Jack Williams
of the British Armed Forces calling
any Las Angeles army base or outpost.
Are you receiving me?
I knew these were short range
but I didn't think they were that short range.
Wait.
We're being jammed.
Take cover!
Where the hell did they come from?
It's a damn sniper.
Who the hell knows we're here?
Move!
These are changing times young Max.
I need knew people to usher in the new era.
I'm your man.
Poor choice of words.
You are not a man anymore.
You've evolved to a better...
And I'll be loyal to you.
And why would I believe that?
Especially when you showed no loyalty to your own kind?
Because I can see the future now.
And it's through vampire eyes.
Please.
Would you forgive me?
You need to show of faith.
I can give you that.
All you have to do is let me kill Gerry,
everyone at the haven.
What can you give me?
I can give you the exact coordinates
to the human government bunker
and the access codes to enter it.
What for?
To kill the President of United States.
We might be within range now.
This is Lieutenant Jack Williams
calling any army base in the LA region.
Are you receiving me?
Over.
This is Lieutenant...
Bite me.
Hello darling.
