JANET, AN ATTRACTIVE CARE ASSISTANT, IS FENDING OFF HALF A DOZEN OLD AGE PENSIONERS WITH A CHAIR. THE PENSIONERS ALL HAVE VACANT EXPRESSIONS, AND ARE CLAWING AT HER WITH THEIR ARMS OUTSTRETCHED. PETER, A RUGGEDLY HANDSOME DOCTOR, ENTERS.
JANET
Peter!
PETER
I came as soon as I could.
JANET
It's the residents - I don't know what has got into them.
PENSIONERS
Brains! Brains!
PETER
Janet be careful! My preliminary diagnosis is that they are zombies. I should probably runs some test though.
AN OLD LADY BITES JANET'S ARM. SHE LOOKS FRUSTRATED.
JANET
Oh Gladys, you've forgot to put your teeth in again.

SCENE 2. INT. AN OFFICE.
PETER IS HOLDING JANET IN A MANLY EMBRACE.
PETER
We should be safe until Countdown is over.
JANET
Oh Peter, what are we going to do?
PETER
We'll have to make a break for it.
PETER OPENS THE DOOR. AN OLD MAN IS STANDING IN THE ENTRANCE, HIS ARMS STRETCHED OUT BEFORE HIM.
OLD MAN
Brains.
THE OLD MAN STAGGERS FORWARD, STOPS, THEN SCRATCHES HIS HEAD, AND LURCHES BACK OUT AGAIN.
JANET
Thank God! He's forgotten what he came in here for.
CUT TO:
SCENE 3. EXT. THE DRIVEWAY OF THE OLD PEOPLE'S HOME.
PETER AND JANET ARE RUNNING DOWN THE DRIVE, PURSUED, VERY SLOWLY, BY A CROWD OF PENSIONERS ON ZIMMER FRAMES.
PENSIONERS
Brains!
PETER
Run, Janet, run!
