You like root beer?
Not really.
'Cause I think
we got some root beer.
Got some Hellfire
Cheesy Puffs behind
the counter.
Interested?
No, thanks. Just... Just this.
It was a trick question
anyway.
I don't sell
Hellfire nothing.
Screw 'em,
know what I mean? Zombies.
How do you know
I'm not a zombie?
'Cause you ain't sucking
my brain out of its skull
like I'm a damn oyster.
The night's young.
You almost had me there,
"The night's young."
I was almost buying it.
But zombies
don't come in here.
They know what's good for 'em.
What makes
you say that?
Fillmore-Graves makes
us stock self-tanning lotion,
and we ain't
sold one of 'em.
Zombies know they
ain't welcome here.
This here homie don't play.
Time's nearly up
for zombies.
That I can tell you.
We ain't gonna
keep letting ourselves
be hostages.
That's for damn sure.
What's the hurry?
Ain't no place to go.
All of us is stuck
in these 15 square miles.
Zombie bitch.
Sad.
The last portion
of brains in the morgue,
if not all of Seattle.
Thumb-breaker Barnes.
I spent five days with you
in my head, and now that
you're gone,
I'd rather you stay gone.
You were an unpleasant man
with an unpleasant job.
You dangled an old lady
off her balcony because
she, what,
disrespected you?
Ever heard
of anger management?
Maybe you should've tried
soothing whale sounds.
But I'm spoiled.
I rarely have to choke down
brain tubes like every other
zombie in the city.
Wine.
Liv! Liv, it's happening.
I should've known
last night
when I was more interested
in eating the pizza guy
than the pizza itself.
My monthlies.
Thank you, Grace.
For being this kind, I'll be
forever your humble servant.
That was mine.
I take it all back.
Whoever this was,
delicious.
It was Thumb-breaker Barnes.
Oh...
Hmm.
Who looks good?
Oh, yeah.
[classical music playing
over speakers]
I'm going for a swim.
Don't be here
when I get back.
Actually,
marathoner brain.
Come back tonight,
say 10:00?
Bring friends.
No fatties.
Get this through
your head.
Blaine is King Kong
and the rest of us
are merely Skull Island
natives.
Don't ask why.
Just go tell the girls
that Twofer Tuesdays
is a real thing
decreed by
the mighty Kong.
Remember, Don E,
'twas Beauty
killed the Beast.
Yeah, well,
there are worse ways
to go.
Everything okay?
Actually...
Actually,
things are better
than okay.
They're the hunky-doriest.
Candy was just leaving.
We got problems.
So we're more
like hunky-dory adjacent?
It's a train wreck,
that video, man.
That video is killing us.
What video?
Where have you been
the past 48 hours?
Um...
Did you talk to those lawyers
I texted you about?
Were they from the firm
of Young & Willing?
Come here.
We got company.
What video, Don E?
Convenience store
surveillance cam
caught a couple of zombies
ripping apart some lady
who had the bad sense
to bump into their hooptie.
And what's that
got to do with us?
Turns out, humans don't like
seeing men of a certain
"complexion" chowing down
on nice human ladies.
Who knew?
So humans are gathering
their pitchforks
and their torches?
You know how they get.
It's six humans in particular
who should concern us.
It's the six Border
Patrol agents
who we pay to look
the other way
when we're smuggling brains
through the south channel.
I guess they used to think
that zombies were essentially
decent.
Some are.
Well, now that
they've seen one
of their own womenfolk
put through
debraining process,
we can't pay them
enough to ignore it.
So who's here?
Think of all the people
in the world
you'd enjoy seeing.
It's none of them.
They're petitioning me
to let two humans
out of the city
for a dance contest?
Mm-hmm.
Dance of a lifetime.
No, I'm not letting humans
out to dance.
Producers say
they'll give us a one-minute
commercial spot
in each episode.
To advertise what?
Our tourism's way down.
Commander.
