Excuse me.

- 'Lf you're confronted... '

- We should get out there.

- No, we should stay inside.

- We can take 'em.

- The man said to stay indoors.

- F*** the man.

- In here, we're safe.

'... the attackers can be stopped by removing

the head or destroying the brain.

'I'll repeat that, by removing the head

or destroying the brain.'

Hey!

Aim for the head.

- Now what?

- Get more stuff.

- What's in the shed?
