A lead on a place to go?I though the "oh God we're all gonna die" part of their dillemma was well acted and convincing, though the situation was contrived. Why let them in in the first place, if only to die with you less than a day later? And would the CDC really only have backup power for a month if they were going to run that much power-draining high tech gear? A sensible backup system should have lasted at least a year at full capacity, not a month with one guy. It's sure as hell a good thing he told the kids not to fire up the wii console!But again, the show's about the characters, and the characters were convincing, from Shane's drunken meltdown to Jaqui's decision to stay and be incinerated. The show's only worth watching if the Zombie mayhem is the circumstance under which genuine character development takes place, and on this score it was done well. I don't see things ending well for Shane though. But I suppose as things stand right now, it's not ending well for any of them.</blockquote>
