Hidden Survivors EP
Transcript
00:04Oh my god! Something's wrong at Pinnacle Hospital! There are police and doctors everywhere!
00:09Is there a confirmed case?
00:16Emily, I was just about to reply to you, but the post vanished. I didn't delete it.
00:19I don't know if it's a confirmed case, but there are special police. It's terrifying.
00:22Is your lease almost up? Do you want to renew it?
00:26Emily, graduation season is coming up soon and apartments will be in short supply.
00:30Decide quickly if you want to renew and I can get you a discount.
00:54The city will be locked down at 8am tomorrow. Get out if you can. Stock up on supplies until your
00:59place is full.
01:09There's an emergency at home. I need to take leave.
01:12Okay Emily, go on home. Take a week off.
01:20Dad, drive back to City Q right now. I'm coming home today.
01:24Honey, what's going on?
01:25I'll explain everything as soon as I get out of the car.
01:27Where are you now?
01:38Mom, send me the address of our new place.
01:40Leave work now. I'll be home this afternoon.
02:01Miss, are you sure you want this much stuff?
02:03Positive. Please deliver it as soon as possible. Thank you.
02:11What was wrong with that biter in the video?
02:14A huge metropolis with tens of millions of people, a major transportation hubbit, locking down just like that?
02:20Why run away from the most important economic and cultural center unless it's already out of control?
02:25What is happening to this world?
02:33What's wrong, honey? What happened?
02:35Sweetie, does this have something to do with you coming home suddenly?
02:38I don't know exactly what's going on, but I know it's serious.
02:40The city is locking down at 8am tomorrow.
02:43Someone warned me to leave right away and stock up on supplies.
02:45I'm so scared. Please believe me, Mom and Dad.
02:48We really need to buy enough to last at least a year.
02:50Don't be afraid. Mom and Dad have your back, always.
02:53Who would we trust if not you?
02:56Stocking up, right?
02:57Don't wait for my cooking today.
02:59I'm heading to the wholesale market first.
03:01Send me the list of what you ordered, baby.
03:02I'll check what you're missing and fill in the gaps.
03:09Our family will be fine. Stop panicking.
03:12Pack your things properly and head to the airport.
03:14I already placed an order for a batch of supplies.
03:16To avoid drawing attention, I had them delivered to the B1 parking garage around 8pm.
03:19When we could be upstairs, be careful not to run into anyone.
03:22Okay, don't worry, sweetie. Mom will never let anything happen to you.
03:25Let's go.
04:12I don't know.
04:33I have to face it.
04:34This is already the last train to the airport.
04:57It's passable now.
05:13Hi mom, it's me.
05:16Honey, mom's busy here.
05:17I just ordered 200 pounds of pork, 100 pounds of beans, 100 pounds of lamb, four whole chicken.
05:21Still need chicken wings and drum hocks.
05:23Is there anything else you want?
05:24Mom, you're incredible.
05:26Listen, remember to buy a solar generator, batteries, and a few more refrigerators.
05:31I'll search for the rest.
05:39Attention all passengers bound for city queue.
05:43This flight is about to depart.
05:51Hold on.
05:52If I throw up now, everyone will notice.
06:23I'll search for the rest.
06:32Honey, we can't go home yet.
06:35We need to finish buying everything first.
06:37Starting tomorrow, we won't go out at all.
06:45We're out of stock.
06:46Installation can't be done for three days.
06:48What if we pay extra?
06:50I'll head over to your place and install them right now.
07:05Mom, when will you be back?
07:06My girl's calling.
07:08I'll head home now.
07:09I couldn't bargain down the price for these clothes.
07:12I'll check the underground market tomorrow.
07:14Oh my God.
07:15Fine.
07:16You win.
07:16Take it at this price.
07:17Mom, when will the meat and solar generators you bought be delivered?
07:20The wholesale market will deliver the meat pre-stored in refrigerators.
07:23The fridge shop and meat vendor are run by the same family.
07:25The solar generators have already arrived.
07:27I had them left outside room 1502.
07:29That apartment's unfinished.
07:30No one will notice.
07:31I stashed the rest in the 24th stair hill.
07:33Hardly anyone climbs that high, and no one lives above the 20th floor.
07:44Mineral water, toilet rolls, self-heating hot pots, lime storage barrels, rainwater collectors,
07:50rubbing alcohol, everything's here.
08:22Mineral water, toilet roll, everything's here.
08:37I'm keeping the four hens on the enclosed balcony off the kitchen.
08:41Soundproof cotton has been installed everywhere, so no clacking can be heard outside.
08:59What was that?
09:00Oh, God.
09:47Movies are just movies.
09:48I can't judge these creatures downstairs based on fictitional stories.
09:52The person who was brutally attacked this morning has now turned into one of them.
09:56Judging from this, the virus spreads through saliva and blood.
09:58Right now, these zombies seem mindless, wandering aimlessly in circles.
10:02After that sick man vomited earlier, they were drawn to the smell and swarmed around Building
10:0710 where he lives.
10:08That means they hunt relying on hearing and smell.
10:12Honey, let's get some sleep.
10:14We were completely worn out last night.
10:19What's happening?
10:20It's so dark.
10:22Damn it.
10:23The stench of rotten iron is thick enough to choke on.
10:28I remember these eyes.
10:30I saw them at the airport in City B one day ago.
10:34Sweetie, you're having a nightmare.
10:36Wake up.
10:39You have a fever, baby.
10:42Take this medicine and you'll feel better.
10:54The number of zombies between Building 10 and Building 12 hasn't changed.
10:59Still 11.
10:59It means there are likely no new infected in our community.
11:04I have no idea what sustains them.
11:06They seem to need no food or energy besides human flesh.
11:11Stray cats in the yard hold no interest for them.
11:14They fear no daylight.
11:16And will lunge and bite and blindly at any sound.
11:20Proving their hearing is extremely sharp.
11:29Dad, come quick!
11:38Dad, should we help him?
11:45Help might come for us soon.
11:48I think we can give him something, just not too much.
11:53That makes sense.
11:56Two packs of compressed biscuits and two chocolate bars.
12:02But how?
12:03The distance between our building and Building 14 is nearly 50 meters.
12:07We can't throw it that far.
12:09There's no way we'd risk our lives to deliver it.
12:35The distance between our building and building and building and building and building and building and building and building and

13:01Oh my god, it's horrifying.
13:18Sweetie, what's wrong?
13:20Mom, Dad, that man downstairs, he's the one from apartment 1602, building 14.
13:24The neighbor gave him two packs of instant noodles today.
13:27So the victim was that kind Linju.
13:29They made it in the first day on Lamar's supplies.
13:31We might have been the ones killed tonight.
13:33In this world, even kindness can get you killed.
13:37All right, honey, go back to your room and rest.
13:41Margaret, you take over the night watch.
13:43I'll reinforce our fire north, our fire door with extra defenses.
13:49Shit, shit, shit!
13:59Who says being trapped indoors means we're just waiting to die?
14:17Damn you.
14:18Just you wait.
14:19I'll make you pay.
14:31The dying woman's last words played in my mind.
14:34She mouthed one thing to me.
14:36Run.
14:48Hi.
14:53You hear me?
14:55You hear me?
14:56You hear me?
14:58You hear me?
15:40I don't know.
15:51I don't know.
16:13That was why I never let my parents get involved.
16:15Do you think your father and I are weak, hiding behind you, waiting to be protected?
16:21Watching your child take dangerous risks just to keep the family safe is the cruelest thing a parent can endure.
16:25Have you ever thought?
16:26Two people begged for supplies that day.
16:28Where is the other one?
16:29Could he be hiding on the 14th floor, waiting to ambush you?
16:33I... I never considered that.
16:36Baby, beyond being your family, you need to learn to trust and cooperate with others.
16:42We are not burdens.
16:44We survive this together.
16:52Thirteen people went out to search for supplies, but only five actually made it back.
16:57A severe two-day rainstorm hit one night in September.
17:01It completely submerged the first floor and put the second floor in imminent danger.
17:08Will the buildings collapse after being soaked in rainwater for so long?
17:12It's unlikely.
17:14Flooding mostly shortens a building's lifespan, not bring it down at once.
17:36Flooding mostly shortens a building's lifespan, not bring it down at once.
17:52Flooding mostly shortens a building's lifespan, not bring it down at once.
17:52I can't help...
17:53I feel like the zombies are watching them.
17:57The supplies they brought back this only enough for one person to survive three days.
18:01I reckon they'll have to go out for more.
18:03But I heard the streets are flooded with them.
18:39Dammit, the thick, sickening stench of blood hangs in the air.
18:43and i feel like i'm drowning in it oh my god it's an intelligent variant the zombies downstairs
18:53have evolved and they've spawned a leader this is terrible will we even survive don't be afraid my
18:59love as long as we stay together as a family we'll get through anything based on everything
19:02i observed i've categorized them as stage one stage two and stage three stage one zombies are
19:07the mindless ones from the early days of the apocalypse stage two are the evolved ones that
19:10hunted the survivors today enhanced physical ability with basic primitive intelligence
19:14stage three are the intelligent overlords that can command the horde even capable of showing
19:19primitive emotion evolution is only accelerating if we don't stop them soon there will surely be
19:24stage four stage five and beyond this is catastrophic we've lost all contact with the
19:29government we have no idea what has become of the outside world we held our breath until the last
19:33zombie left the neighborhood finally able to relax yet overwhelming loneliness washed over me
19:39the world had grown deathly quiet leaving only the three of us alive you've been down lately
19:44go tend to the plants to clear your head it feels as if i'm nurturing the last hope for humanity
19:49some of the potatoes we stockpiled long ago have sprouted i plant them alongside the new vegetables
19:55i cut out the sprouting the buds then bury them in soil-filled water bottles once leaves grow in
20:01i dig up the rooted spruits and transplant them into large cardboard boxes alongside the other healthy
20:07seedlings i fertilize the crops every 20 days i snip off all beating flowers to stop the plants for
20:13wasting nutrients and withering
20:18even on such a sacred holiday we can only celebrate in the simplest saddest way
20:25how much longer must we endure this first world
20:30i never cared for christmas pudding i wouldn't take a single bite last christmas this year is
20:35different though every ingredient feels incredibly precious it has been six months since the zombie
20:41outbreak and we treasure every scrape of food more than ever before
21:11i have a bad feeling
21:14the zombies are evolving again
21:19with explosions this massive could the military have arrived
21:45it seems cruelty has become their pastime in this broken world with their endless looting
21:50the last traces of ordinary survivors in this community are being erased
21:53my fingers go numb
21:54i barely have time to mourn the dead
21:56at this rate we'll be next by tomorrow
21:58once they find the locked stair hall door
21:59there will be no way out for us
22:05to stay hidden we can only survive on compressed biscuits today
22:08no fireplace no fire at all
22:10outsiders clearly know how to fight the undead
22:13they carry no fear
22:14living carefree in the apocalypse
22:16compared their recklessness our small family is trapped in heavy suffocating dread
22:20i run through every possible plan in my head
22:22yet none seem enough to keep us safe
22:24i refuse to die like this
22:33stay safe sweetie
22:34i will dad
22:36i will dad
23:17thank goodness
23:19it still works
23:34it only has a flight time of 23 minutes
23:36we have to turn back after seven kilometers
23:50the zombie horde didn't come
23:52my plan failed
23:54it's all right
23:55we'll figure out another way
23:56i'd hope the noise from the drone would lure the evolved zombies from the city center into our community
24:00they would fight the intruders buying us time to find a way to survive
24:03but i drew nothing
24:03every one of my guesses was wrong
24:05the drone needs four hours to fully charge
24:07we can't fly it again until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning
24:09by then the intruders will have started searching the buildings
24:12it will be too late
24:21what i feared
24:23has finally come
24:30honey
24:31your nose is bleeding
24:40have some chocolate
24:41sweets are said to boost dopamine and calm you down
24:49i'll try one last time
24:51this is my final gamble
24:53our last struggle before everything ends
25:23it seems the three of us
25:25are the last surviving people left in city q
25:34just stay here forever
25:52we're saved
25:54we're saved
26:06we're saved
26:10we're saved
26:37I still can't believe it.
26:39Are we truly safe now?
26:40The zombie outbreak was a global catastrophe, and our nation was among the worst-hit regions.
26:45The government has exhausted every resource on rescue and containment.
26:48Here in Q-City, we have eliminated the last remaining undead.
26:50Only three major cities nationwide still await full clearance.
26:53We must accept the heavy consequences this disaster has left behind.
26:58Restoring public trust will not happen overnight.
27:00The explosions you heard in the night were part of Operation HICU,
27:04a joint campaign between military and civilian task forces.
27:07Your drone drew no response from the undead for one simple reason.
27:11There were no zombies left in Q-City.
27:14For half a year, this city has been nothing but an empty dead zone.
27:17Temporary safe havens have been established in every provincial capital.
27:21Most survivors have already been relocated there.
27:23Your community lies far from the city's center and was newly developed, so rescue notifications were delayed.
27:29Thermal scans from military drones mark this area as completely uninhabitated.
27:33We are so sorry.
27:37None of this is your fault.
27:39Your drone's low-altitude patrols caught our attention long ago.
27:42We spotted the shaky, blood-written SOS today.
27:45We hesitated, uncertain if it was a genuine plea or an enemy trap.
27:48Refusing to abandon any chance of saving lives,
27:51we tracked the drone back to this complex and waited for the right moment.
27:54I trust you.
27:56I trust us, our country.
28:02Come in.
28:04Warm up with a cup of hot cocoa.
28:08They never imagined anyone could have survived hidden inside this community.
28:13One vicious-looking man fixed me with a cold, vengeful glare.
28:18He may have been plot-rotting retaliation, but none of it mattered anymore.
28:34I hope it heals soon, just like all of humanity.
