Back at the clubhouse, the team wakes up to a classic Z Nation trap: they are chained to a zombie. After a creative kill involving an umbrella and a golf tee, they contact Citizen Z to track their missing asset. Murphy, meanwhile, shows a rare flash of brilliance by staring directly into a traffic camera during a bathroom break, allowing Citizen Z to pinpoint his location.

Naturally, the new "friends" aren't interested in saving the world; they're interested in Murphy's value. After drugging the team in the clubhouse, the trio kidnaps Murphy. Their goal isn't California—it's a high-stakes heist at a pharmaceutical company called MESA, where they plan to use Murphy’s immunity to bypass the zombie-infested hallways and loot valuable drugs.
