Ooh

ahh

ohh

Uh, to the back, come on. Come on!

And watch all my

grandchildren growing old

Some they will remember me

and others through the

stories they've been told

Now I don't intend to frighten you

I just want to see if

what I think is true

Cause then and only

then we'll know

If it was worth it

to become a ghost

This is the future of

our American military?

I know. Pretty soon even the

French will conquer us.

Chuck? Yeah, man, hit that sh*t.

Sh*t.

I'll check if principal

McMann is here.

Babykins, you won't let

them hurt me, will you?

Janet, babe, I have years

of military experience.

Alright, they won't

lay a finger on you.

You have years of

military experience?

Yeah. I've been paintballing

with my dad since I was 6.

Principal McMann?

Oh, damn it! I got nothing.

Uh, I got nothing here.

Yeah. Me neither.

Nor I.

Me, too.

Maybe all these, uh, corpsicles

are creating some kind of

undead zone.

Hey, Lilly and Ashley

are out there.

They are? Well, open the door.

Let them in.

They're a little busy right now.

Doing what?

Eating Rick Bliscan.

What are you laughing at?

Uh, well, when uh, Ashley

and Lilly were alive,

they were always talking about

who would get a piece

of Rick's ass first.

So?

Lilly won.

Oh, f***.

That's not funny.

Well, it's a little funny.

Kind of cool.

No, no, no. This is not cool.

I know you all are raging

freakazoids and all,

but even ones as far removed

from cooldom as you

should still understand

how much further from

coolness this situation is.

Yeah.

Janet, you should

really lighten up.

Lighten up? No, this is

no time to lighten up.

If anything, we should

all be getting heavier.

Well, maybe you should

stop upchucking

after every meal then.

Hey! Janet's right.

This is serious.

And serious times call for...

Serious minds.

Thank God we have you then.

Was principal McMann in there?

Partly.

I don't want to die here.

Ok.

This zombie sh*t

is really starting to

harsh my mellow, OK?

All right, look.

Come on, you too, Willow.

Get in here.

All right, this school

is crawling with God knows

how many zomb-heads.

We need to find

somewhere to hold up.

And we need to fortify.

Well, yeah, but everywhere we go,

there's going to be

deadheads already there.

Yeah, we need somewhere

no one goes to.

The library.

Why would we go there?

It's perfect. One major

entrance and plenty of shelves

to barricade the door.

Sounds easily defendable.

Yeah, and it's right down the hall.

Good. 'Cause all this

running and sh*t

is tuckering the Ashman out.

Yeah, I don't think

Mrs. Rumblethorpe

can take much more moving around.

Most important...

Yeah?
