The first 200 lines.
Previously on "Age of the Living Dead".
We launch a first strike on the East Coast.
We could effectively wipe the vampire population
clean from the planet.
They need us, even if it is as a livestock.
Not anymore.
They've managed to synthesize
human cloning cells.
They've learned to synthesize blood.
Let me in!
Cut to it, Sam.
Margaret, you have leukemia.
You do what you gotta do,
and I'll do the same.
Dispatch Sephora.
Sir...
Do it.
Come on, this is The Haven, do you copy?
Hold on.
One more.
Central Command, this is The Haven, do you copy?
All right, so we have power, but no signal,
so it's likely the antenna.
What could be messing with the antenna?
What?
Max.
Of course.
It doesn't matter.
As soon as Command see we've dropped off comms,
they'll send a team to investigate
what happened to us.
So they likely could be here any minute.
I'm gonna wait for the storm to pass.
They'll need someone nearby to hold up.
Where's the next nearest outpost?
Out of range of the storm.
Yup, there.
Silver City.
How far is that?
About 20 clicks.
We need to repair the antenna
and tell them not to come this way.
Well, we can't get out
until the storm has passed either, so...
Yeah, sadly that won't affect any approaching vampires.
What kind of early warning system are we gonna be
if we're blind and not able to communicate?
You know...
Maybe it's not enough to leave Max out there to die.
What else can we do?
I'm gonna go take care of him.
No.
And I'm not risking you out there.
Well what, are you gonna go out there?
No.
But I think I found a way to kill two birds
with one stone.
The missiles will be refueled and ready
for Operation Clean Sweep in seven days.
That's a delay of a day, Jim.
Why's that?
Not getting cold feet, are you, General?
We're simply having to ready
more service-to-air missiles.
There's been an increase in drone activity.
More drones?
Around double.
God.
What is it?
I got through to London.
Under my orders.
Madam President.
May I ask why you broke quarantine?
I didn't put us in quarantine,
the rest of the world did.
As far as I'm concerned, it's not their call.
What did London say?
Or rather, what did you say to compromise our plan?
I told my ex-wife, she can be trusted.
And overheard, we must advance the attack!
They're watching us, wanting to see what we can do,
what we will do.
Vertus you're not, this is not gonna make
our job any easier.
I'm aware of that, General.
But it's the best we can do.
I'm sure we have enough SAMs
to take out every drone they have patrolling.
And that'll cause another delay, Madam President.
We are hunting, gentlemen.
One of my favorite things to do.
And my father taught me that if you only have one bullet,
make sure you have a clean shot.
See to it.
All right, gentlemen, moving on.
The next item on the agenda is the budget increase
for defense spending.
Gentlemen, I think we've covered
all we need for today.
Let's pick this up again tomorrow, shall we?
Mister.
Thank you.
Have a seat, Matthew.
I take it your presence does not mean good news.
When I became the PM,
my predecessor said if I went a week
without a visit from your department,
I was doing a good job.
The vampires fired a short ranged missile
into the No Man's Land
A missile.
48 hours ago, why am I only learning of this now?
We've just confirmed it.
In all honestly, the drones and satellites
haven't been paying enough attention.
Too busy watching the populous.
I thought neither the humans or the vampires
had access to any such technology.
That was a...
A guess.
Yes.
The military may have been overrun,
but they wouldn't of all been killed.
Military personnel may have been turned.
And with it, their knowledge.
Sir, before the quarantine,
we launched systematic airstrikes
to ensure as many military bases as possible
would be destroyed.
But we couldn't destroy them all.
That's the problem with a wall.
You're protected, but you can't see what you're caging.
Sephora?
It's on its way.
Well, that's something at least.
There was one other thing, Prime Minister.
What is that?
Sephora.
Perhaps that would give them false hope.
My children playing upstairs, dragons and knights,
rescuing a damsel in distress.
A glorious and simple rendition of right and wrong,
good and evil.
I sometimes wonder what they would make
of the notion of us abandoning the United States.
It was to save...
Ourselves.
The rest of the world.
Yes.
I suppose.
We've wiped the vampire infection from our shores,
but we'll have to fight it on the frontline some day.
This war is not something
we can bury our head in the sand about.
The wall will protect us, sir.
Are you a fan of history, Matthew?
I like to live in the here and now.
History teaches us things from time to time, you know.
What springs to mind for me,
is every occasion in history
where man has built a wall to keep things out,
or contain them, or separate them.
Siege of Troy, the Great Wall of China, Berlin Wall.
Sir, if I may...
My point is, Matthew, is that walls crumble.
The enemy will always find a way
to climb over a barrier to the freedom
because they want to get out
more than we want to keep them in.
Your orders, Prime Minister.
Pray that Sephora tips the balance.
Sir, what are you doing here?
I have to come to watch your work.
You know, visiting us won't expedite the process.
Do I detect a tone in that response?
No, no, I simply mean that it's...
I need immediate results.
I cannot delay any longer.
Listen, with all due respect,
this isn't a case of...
I am tired of waiting!
Tell me, were you born or turned?
Were you born or turned?
I was turned.
When?
Austria, 1947.
I have lived for centuries.
I have watched kings and queens reign and fall,
I have seen the humans slowly but surely,
blindly kill each other.
I have waited!
And I'll confess, I'm tired of waiting.
Tired of waiting for our time,
of waiting for our moment.
Now you will work.
You will finish what I started,
and I will be here right next to you
until it is done.
Do you understand?
Yeah.
