Saturday morning in Tarken's Mill and there's only one thing on the minds of Jason and Eugene. They plan on sleeping in since they've been up all night playing Half Life but Father Cullen has other plans for them.
A shipment has arrived at the Museum (one part of the Dorm is the local musuem.) and the Gang is needed to help catalogue what has arrived. The Padre will be in Bangor for the day on School business and wants them to have everything done by the time he gets back. Misty is excused from the cataloguing since she's working at the Diner and Rod has football practice so he is also excused.
After breakfast Jason, Shawn, Eugene and Sharon get to work opening crates and cataloguing their contents. The shipment is of weapons from different periods in history but mainly of Celtic origins. After a couple of hours of work, they decide to head over to the Diner for a late lunch and than back to work.
After lunch, they head back to the dorm. When they get there they discover that someone has broken in and after checking against the shipping invoice they discover that one of the swords is missing. Jason ends up cutting himself on one of the other swords while they are looking to see what is missing.
They try to contact the Padre and the local sheriff, Officer McGrath to report the break-in. Shawn is looking outside as the sun is starting to go down and notices people heading towards the dorm. As they get closer, the gang notices that the people are walking rather strangely and they look very strange and pale.
The people surround the house and are trying to get in. Sharon tells the rest that she's sure that the people are really zombies. After some debate, the rest reluctlantly agree that this is the case and defend themselves from the zombies.
Grabbing weapons from the crates and improvising with some stuff around the Dorm (bowling ball, bottles of alcohol, etc.) they are able to beat back the zombies. Their victory is short lived though as a second wave of zombies seem to be heading towards the dorm and they realize that Misty is on her way from the Diner and they can't warn her about the zombies.
As they discuss what to do, Jason collaspes without warning.
