Biography[]

In the aftermath of a zombie outbreak, zombies are cured and exiled to secluded camps. There has been talk about rehabilitating post-zombies back into society. Steve, the journalist reporting on the case, thinks the zombies still pose a threat to society. He ventures into one of these camps to prove to the world that rehabilitation is out the question.

When Steve and his camera man visit one of the apartments where two zombies live. One of the zombies is rather polite to Steve however the other on is bitter. Steve asks them several questions about what they want. Eventually the second Zombie snaps and yells that he just wants his life as a human back, scaring Steve. The Zombies get into a fight causing Steve to cowardly run out.

The Zombies eventually make up and apologize to each other, an event that Steve does not witness.

At the end of the short, Steve states to the cameraman that what they saw that day is definitive proof that Zombies should not be allowed back into society.
