Erinsborough Hospital
Karl examines Stingray and David, while Stingray holds a mirror in front of him.
STINGRAY: I can still see my reflection.
DAVID: That’s vampires.
Karl finishes taking Stingray’s blood and says they’ll need for test results to come back.
KARL: Your readings are erratic.
STINGRAY: Awesome!
DAVID: It means we shouldn’t be alive.
Toadie asks if this means there could be more. Karl says whatever has caused this to happen could be contagious. David wonders if Liljana and Serena could come back, and Sonya wonders about Troy and Dee. Karl goes to take the results to the lab and agrees to get some food sent through for Stingray, looking rather nervous by the request. Sonya sees Toadie holding his wedding ring and asks if he’s thinking about Dee, it’s only natural to wonder about her.
TOADIE: Do you think there’s a chance that she might be still alive? Am I mad?
SONYA: Up until tonight I would have probably said yes, but if you need to go and find her…
Toadie nods and kisses Sonya. Meanwhile David and Stingray watch, Stingray’s head resting on David’s shoulder as he turns to David with a happy grin on his face.
DAVID: Don’t look at me, I’m not going to kiss you.
STINGRAY: Serena did.
DAVID: Don’t speak ill of the… undead.

Mason, Amber and Hope run out of the house towards the back fence which is locked. Robbo and Matt follow. Amber asks why Robbo had to do that to her dad. Zombie Matt says he missed Mason. Mason picks up a shovel and holds it as a weapon, yelling at Hope and Amber to go as they start to climb the fence. Mason whacks Matt in the head with the shovel and he falls to the ground, dead. Robbo makes a run for Mason and we hear his screams as Amber and Hope climb over the fence.

Karl runs inside, calling for Susan. Susan greets Karl, telling him it’s a miracle. Drew’s back! Drew walks in and asks if there’s been any word from Libby.
Erinsborough Hospital
Stingray stares at an injured patient’s bloody leg.
DAVID: Well you’ve got weirder.
STINGRAY: Oh yeah sorry. Are you having any funky cravings?
DAVID: No, I feel fine.
STINGRAY: Yeah, me too.
Paul arrives and greets David and Stingray, as Stingray rushes off to find food.
DAVID: So you’re the mayor now.
PAUL: I’ve always cared about this place and the people in it.
DAVID: You certainly cared for Lil, didn’t you?
Paul says he’s here to apologise, and is surprised that David doesn’t know the details about the plane crash. He explains the plane crash wasn’t an accident, his son was responsible.
Number 28
Karl asks Drew about the last thing he remembers, explaining that Drew had a fall, but Drew can’t remember a thing. Drew asks what he’s doing here and why can’t he see Libby? Susan explains that Libby isn’t his wife anymore.
Erinsborough Hospital
Georgia is pleased to see Stingray, who’s shiftily looking around at the patients. Stingray can’t believe Georgia’s a nurse now.
GEORGIA: The Brooks side of the family, that’s where the brains are from?
STINGRAY: Brains?
She asks if he’s called Janelle yet, but he hasn’t as he wanted to make sure he was okay first.
GEORGIA: We thought that you were cremated.
STINGRAY: I’ve just been busy putting myself back together, you know.
Georgia hugs Stingray, but after a second he pushes her away. He apologises, telling her she smells really good.
Number 28
Karl says they need to get Drew to hospital. Drew asks them to tell him about Ben. Susan says he takes after Drew in a way, bright kid, very passionate, and Drew would be proud of him. Drew looks at a baby photo of Ben, asking if he’s closer to Darren or Dan? Susan says what happened wasn’t his fault, Ben knows Drew would have been there for him if he could. Karl tells Drew to see a doctor, but Drew doesn’t want to be locked up and tested on and lose another 12 years of his life.
SUSAN: We just want to make sure that you are well enough to see Libby and Ben.
DREW: But what if I’m not, what if they think I’m some sort of freak of nature? What then?
KARL: Drew.
DREW: No Karl, I won’t. I’m not going anywhere!
Erinsborough Hospital
The patient with the bloody leg is lying on the hospital floor, dead. Stingray drags him into a hospital ward to hide the body, and then walks away, wiping blood away from his mouth.
Number 28
