Welcome to Seabrook.

We're a perfectly planned community.

We all have perfect homes.

Perfect clothes.

The perfect life.

Yep, everything was perfect.

Until it wasn't.

Who would have thought that an accident involving lime soda would set off the

apocalypse?

And when the contaminated green haze blew west, people were not happy.

Because it turned them into... Zombies.

That's right.

Zombies!

eating zombies.

Dark and gory times.

But we built a big barrier to protect us from the zombie horde.

Safe at last. Zebra could finally get back to our perfect lives.

Well, a lot has changed since they built the barrier 50 years ago.

science found a much better way to deal with zombies. And you know what happened

to those old brain-eating monsters?

Well, they still have to live on this side of the barrier, but now, they're

awesome.

I'm Zed, and yeah, I'm a zombie.

Zombies have to wear government-issued coveralls.

But we make them look pretty cool.

And we have a curfew.

And for a long time, we were forced to stay in Zombie Town. But we've come a

long way since the outbreak.

Thanks to the Z-Band.

This puppy delivers a dose of soothing electromagnetic pulses that keep us from

eating brains.

Now zombies can live happy lives and have handsome yet humble kids.

So things are changing.

Today's the first day we can attend human high school.

And I get to try out for the football team.

Go, Seabrook!

Oh, yeah!

Give me an F. Give me an I. Give me an R, S, T. It's the first day

of freshman year for me, me, me.

Oh, hi.

I'm Madison.

And I've crushed cheer summer after cheer summer of cheer camp.

But today's my shot at making the Seabrook cheer squat.

You make cheer, and you fit in.

And why wouldn't I fit in? I'm a totally normal teen.

Well, except for this.

Born with it.

Doctors can't explain it. They think it's some rare genetic thing.

Can't diet.

Nothing sticks.

I've tried everything.

In some places, this hair might be odd in like a cool way, but not at Seabrook.

People here hate anything that's different.

If anyone outside my family found out I wore a wig, I would never be allowed to

cheer.

So, I've worn a wig for as long as I can remember.

That's my little sister Zoe.

She really wants a dog, but zombies aren't allowed to have pets.

Some people still think we'll eat them.

Ruff.

Ruff. Come, Zed, come.

Ruff, ruff, ruff.

Good boy. Hey, son, try this.

Brains in a can.

It's made out of cauliflower.

And some for you, my little zombie angel.

Ooh, it tastes like gym sneakers, Dad.

I know. How great is that?

Listen, Zed, I'm not so sure about this whole football thing. You know, it might

be too much.

I mean, you're a great kid, it's just... You haven't spent a whole lot of time

around humans, and humans don't really like zombies.

That's just because they haven't met me yet.

Cheer tryouts today!

Cheer tryouts today!

I am way fired up.

Addison, you know that Seabrooks won every cheer championship since...

forever. Forever.

But now the city council's having our zombies in our schools, we need cheer

more than ever.

As mayor...

I beseech you, you make that team and win that cheer championship!

Beseech me?

Really, Mom? I get that was, um... Yeah, Missy, that was a bit much. A bit much,

I felt that.

Nothing's gonna stop you, Addison. As long as you keep that wig on. Oh, yes,

of course, as long as you keep that wig on.

Okay. Honey, come on.

Ready?

Go team!

Woo!

He's dead.

They say be careful, those humans can be mean. But also going out for the

football team.

This might look rough, but it's home sweet home. Just a little bit of dust

and a little bit of mold.

But it ain't so bad on this side of the track. We make it work with a little bit

of swag. On this side, we can all keep...

It's still movement. Hey, Bonzo, come and spit a verse.

He just dropped that in zombie.

Yeah, all he said is he's hungry.

Another year and I only get better. Another cheer, another varsity letter.

This year we just can't lose. Well, I'm going to win. Y'all can come too.

We need to take a trip downtown.

No, officer.

We're all good.

Hug her. No, hey.

She does not want a hug.

Can't let those monsters change this town, cuz.

Ew. They're just going to school like us.

Like us?

People love me, okay? I got jazz hands. Those freaks are nothing like us. They

tried to eat our grandfather.

It was just a small...

And bite.

Cheer Travis today after school, everybody.

Let's go Mighty Shrimp!

Go, go, go, Seabream!

Wait, you know, because shrimp, they eat the waste of the ocean at the bottom.

Woo, go, Seabream!

Hi, I'm Bree, and I've always dreamed of being on the cheer squad because I

really want to be a flyer.

Tossed high in the sky. Nice to meet you. I'm Addison, and I love cheer, too.

Did you know the creator of the wave?

Come on, you guys. We're in a real school.

No more classes in a dingy basement.

You were saying?

I'm Principal Lee.

We are thrilled to be forced to have you here.

Do not leave the basement.

Okay. Have a great year.

Principal Lee. Okay.

I was just wondering.

How do I try out for the football team?

In the computer coding club?

Gruzik. Right, music classes.

Bonzo's an artist.

He's classically trained.

Let me ask you this. Do any of these include

leaving the basement?

Well, yeah, I guess.

Then I guess you don't. So no tryouts for you.

I'm sorry. I don't mean it. Have a great day. That's just an expression.

Excuse me.

Okay.

Let's do some grammar or something.

This is supposed to be chemistry.

Look, 45 minutes ago, I was a janitor kid, so bear with me.

What am I doing?

I don't know. We're at a football tryout.

Yeah, I know it's a high-risk move. I got smarts and stealth on my side.

You're a zombie!

Wait.

What?

Wait. Are you serious?

You'll be fine. You don't have to worry about it.

He'll be afraid of fire.

Buzzo!

Okay, everybody, against the wall. Let's go. These drills are offensive and

driven by zombie phobia. No talking against the wall.

Fire.

Okay, I know this is scary, Bree, but there's a zombie safe room right there.

Zombie safe room secure.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Why, hello?

Don't get any ideas, buster.

The only thing more deadly than my high kick is my low kick.

I'm sorry.

This just isn't how I was expecting my first day at a new school to go. You

weren't expecting to be trapped in a zombie safe room?

Oh, no, that I expected.

That happens to me all the time. It's sort of my thing.

So, I'm not gonna get low-kicked.

You're safe.

For now.

Good.

Because today's a big day.

I'm trying out for the football team.

Oh, we're both having big days. I'm trying out for the cheer squad.

That's a tough gig to get.

Yeah.

But, I love it.

My parents have had me in cheer camp since forever.

My dad doesn't even think I'm gonna make the team.

What? No, sure you will.

You just need someone to cheer for you.

And soon, fingers crossed, he'll be like, my job.

So.

I'm Zed. What's your name?

Addison.

Nice to meet you.

Here. Zombies!

Zed, I'm so sorry. My parents have always taught me that zombies are

disgusting, dead-eyed freaks, but you're not hideous at all.

Thanks.

I'll take it.

My parents have always hated zombies since one bit my grandpa's ear off. But

now we'll just talk your ear off.

There you are!

Ew! Nasty!

Zombie germ! If you ever touch my cousin again, it won't be pretty. Which, as you

can see, is off-brand for me.

To the cheer tryouts.

Seabrook awaits.

Progress.

We're making progress.

Okay, welcome to football tryouts.

As you know, this town is a cheerleading town because this town likes to win.

And our football team is awful, so we are not going to win this year. And I'm

probably going to lose my job.

Good news for you, though. Y'all made the team. Whoopee.

Yes, I made it. Except for the zombie. What?

Principal Lee said you guys shouldn't even leave the basement. She didn't tell

you? No.

Mm-mm. Don't think so.

Think I would have remembered that.

Come on, just let me be on the team. Can't have a zombie on the field. We

look like a laughing stock.

And besides, I'm no trailblazer.

No, I'm more of a follower.

Actually, I'm not even really good at that, but...

Football's

stupid anyway.

Ah, thanks for the pep talk.

Very funny.

You know, I think that cheerleader likes me.

The one that punched you in the face? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think there's

something there, you know? Look, humans are bad, but cheerleaders are monsters.

Things need to change.

Okay, let's go.

Line up.

Welcome to cheerleading tryouts.

It's nice to see so many...

Wannabes. I mean, we'd wannabes, too, if we weren't already on the cheer squad.

You need to bring it, okay? Like my assistant

captains. First up, we have Stacy.

Today's tryouts are going to be easy.

The hardest thing you'll have to do is a back handspring funky chicken round off

mashed potato split with a robot downpowering finish.

Afraid?

Yes, Addison.

Captain Bucky, was that funky chicken Cajun or shake and bake? Well, I've

never heard of Cajun, so spice it up.

We got this.

The mighty shrimp don't think small.

Cheer until it hurts.

Can you win over a crowd?

Get them to worship you.

over there has great moves and serious pep.

Seabrook is all about precision.

Perfection. Just can't hide under a wig, like some people.

Pretty please?

Brie!

You have some real potential.

You made the squad.

As a stand-in.

So I'm on the team?

People love cheer.

That's what makes me so important, and I hate to see that change.

Change is upon us now that zombies have entered our school.

Cheer is being threatened.

C-H-E-E.

Are you ready to protect it?

Let the cheer initiation begin!

Wow.

Zombie town.

Zoe!

Dinner!

Wow.

Every year, for cheer initiation, we like to remind zombies that we don't

accept freaks in this town.

Hag that zombie house, and you're both officially one of us.

Oh. What? No, we can't do that.

You look loud.

Everything okay out here?

Dead?

Anybody there?

Uh, no.

Nobody. Come on back inside then.

Are zombies always this harassed?

I had no idea life was like this for them.

the pep rally today hey hey hey what's up guys

uh zombies are students at zebra too bucky picking on them isn't right

zombies distract people from what's really important

like cheer us me but we can't go around tormenting them

Especially if you don't question things.

Have a rally today, cuz.

You're gonna rock it.

Yeah, Bonzo, in addition to getting rejected from football, I met a

cheerleader, and I thought she was cool. You know, I thought she was different. I

thought she was the one.

But I was wrong.

Cheerleaders are all terrible.

Well, look, there's no human students in the basement.

Uh, someone yacked in the cafeteria.

Oh, right.

Still the janitor.

Wow. This is awful.

Yeah, we would have cleaned, but the teacher's territorial about his mop.

Sorry. Sorry.

Addison, what are you doing here?

Apologizing.

My cousin, he's a jerk about zombies, and last night was cheer initiation.

Not that that's a good excuse.

I'm so sorry.

Well, what if Bucky sees us talking?

We'll make sure he doesn't.

Uh, see you at the pep rally this afternoon?

Zombies don't do pep rallies.

We'll think about it.

Okay,

can we, like, crack a window open in here? It stinks of humans.

Of course, Dad's not coming. I mean, zombies at a pep rally would be serious

drama. There are zombies at the pep rally!

They wouldn't dare.

Come on.

Stacy, Lacey, Tracy.

Watch out, the spirit stinks.

I can't believe you dragged us out here to see Cherry McCheerstein.

You're gonna be sick.

Do I look green?

Greener than usual? Yeah.

be a great year. We are going to win the state cheer championship again.

Come on, Eliza. Ease up.

Cheer's contagious.

So is Pink Eye.

Let's turn up the heat.

Let everyone see them for who they really are.

Monster!

Don't worry about it. A real fire's not going to hurt us.

It's going to be fine. Don't worry.

Lonzo? No!

Stop!

Addison! Wow!

Hey.

You, me, we gotta talk.

He went to our offensive linemen like they were scrawny freshmen.

Principal Lee, I can explain.

Coach wants you on his team.

Really?

Yeah. With a monster-like monster player like you, we could turn the football

team around.

And with fan support, maybe I can keep my job, move out of my parents'

basement, get a cat, get a gym membership, turn it all around.

It sounds so dreamy. I need you on the team, Sam.

Um, okay, can you just give me a second to think about it?

We're cool.

I'm the zombie, and this zombie's playing some ball.

I can only agree if there are some changes.

Full integration for all zombies.

Oh, excuse me.

There's only one little problem.

You haven't won a game yet.

That's a mere technicality. Could you throw my star player a bone?

Not literally.

Okay, look. In good faith, I will allow zombies to eat in the cafeteria. And

once you start racking in those wins, then...

We'll talk about those other demands, all right?

Yeah, deal.

Deal.

I'll see you at practice, then. I'll see you, coach.

Deal.

Oh, gosh!

human cafeteria.

Wow, Zed. Really delivered.

A very old lunch table in the darkest corner on a cheap fluorescent light sent

by the trash can. I know.

It's perfect.

Living large and in charge.

I just love the thought of flying through the air. Oh, my God. Oxygen is

so overrated and so is dirt.

Ugh, I hate doing the dishes, but it's like I love soap.

Isn't that weird?

Addie?

Are you okay, Addie?

My heart's racing and my palms are sweaty.

Oh, no. You have the flu.

No. It's dead.

Wait. You like like him? You like like a zombie? Wow.

That's bad.

Right? Really bad.

My parents would so freak out.

Are we still friends?

Hello. I have your back no matter what.

It's just I don't want anybody to break your heart.

Or devour it.

But this is great. I mean, I swear, on all that I hold dear, mostly glitter lip

balm, I will tell nobody.

Well, nothing's going to happen. He probably doesn't even remember my name.

I

can't

be rude.

Hi. Um, as they say in old zombie tongue, bizarre nutty garzane gar stick.

I looked it up on the internet.

Um, you just thanked me for rubbing peanut butter on your umbrella.

Oh, um, I meant, welcome to the cafeteria.

Thanks.

Is that it?

Thank you.

Okay, why is Perky Von Cheerstick here?

The point of having our own table is to avoid people like her. Oh, no. I just

wanted to thank Zed for rescuing me from the... You know you're talking to

zombies, right?

I'm fighting against intolerance.

I fought mine by eliminating Derry.

Uh, zombie intolerance?

Okay, look. Your cousin is not going to be happy you're piling around with

zombies. Cheerleaders don't support freaks. Oh, right. Bucky said there was

something different about you.

I can see that now.

No, I'm not different. Your smile.

Is that an overbite?

Is one leg longer than the other?

Do you wear corrective lenses?

No. No, no, I'm not different. I'm the same as person you've ever met.

Hanging with zombies can be hazardous.

You could end up with the reject table like...

The perfect picnic spot.

Sorry, I couldn't sit with you at lunch.

I wanted to. It's just, everyone was just... I guess.

Someday, maybe.

Thanks for saving me at the pep rally.

Are you kidding? It worked out for everyone.

Look at me. I'm going to be on the football team.

If things go well, zombies will be more accepted.

And we could, like, hang out in public.

Wouldn't that be something?

This town, this school, it's hard not fitting in.

Well, how would you know?

You're perfect.

It's a wig.

My real hair is freakish, and I can't change it.

Well, can I see it? Never.

Sorry.

My parents always made me cover my hair.

And they're right, because now I'm on the squad, and I fit in.

This is where we first met.

This is where we had our first punch.

if you didn't get me dreaming of winning, huh?

Ah, shame on me.

What is happening out there? I don't know, Coach. Maybe it's team chemistry,

but honestly, I'm not sure the team's actually blocking for me.

Hey, then.

I thought we had a deal.

You didn't keep your end of it.

So win this game, or it's back to the basement.

Oh, hey, Coach, great idea.

Now people hate us, and we're losing.

That brute strength I saw at the pep rally.

Oh, my Z-band was... Great, use that. Take it and use it. No, I can't. Coach,

no, I can't.

Yeah, no, I'm sorry. I'm not letting you talk me into doing this. I just need a

little zomboost, okay?

Like what happened at the pep rally.

Because that wasn't almost a total disaster.

Yeah, no, I'm not doing it.

Look, you already jailbroke your Z-band to play video games.

This is different, okay? This is ludicrously dangerous.

If I win this game, that's good for us, and that's good for zombies, and isn't

that what we need?

Ooh, whoa. Way too zombie.

Oh, too human.

Okay, just a little bit more.

There. Perfect.

That's it?

That's it.

All right, never swipe to the right, okay?

That'll corrupt the software.

Only left.

Never right. Got it?

Got it.

Hey, if you smell smoke, stop, drop, and roll.

Like Coach said, we can do this.

So let's do this.

Let's go, Mighty Shrimp Break on five.

Okay.

Cheering? The football team hasn't won since forever.

So we can change that. I bet the whole squad cheering together could lead the

football team to victory.

You know what? That whole idealistic, kind of positive attitude has no place

in cheering.

So stop.

Thanks. Awesome cheers.

Life

is good.

Being liked is so weird.

You're either pro-cheerleader or pro-zombie.

Decide now.

Wait, what?

You don't know how hard... What's it gonna be?

I... I want to be a cheerleader.

That's all I ever wanted.

Good.

Hey, Addison!

This zombie trying to go pass?

They're not going to win another football game.

Look, I'm in no mood for autographs.

Okay, I'm off to computer club.

Me. I think I might be happy.

Hey,

zombie chic. I like it. Give me some. Boom, boom.

Cheering for you on the inside, XO Addison.

Ready to break every rule in the book?

Meet me at the barrier.

7 p.m. Tonight.

Dead.

I could get in so much trouble.

I'm in.

Hey.

You made it.

Yeah, and I'm totally not freaked out at all.

You're gonna love this.

Okay.

Let's do this.

You okay?

You don't look so hot.

Ouch. No, you know what I meant.

I have to mess with my Z-band to win games.

Isn't that dangerous?

Addison, if I don't win, zombies will never be accepted.

I know how that feels.

Are you serious?

It's a chance to get loose and be ourselves.

This whole celebration is for you winning football games. It's more than

that. It's a win for all of us.

And we really needed a win.

It's zombie time.

We have a rich language.

23 different words for brain.

Whoa.

So, you like the girl with brain?

You know that's super offensive.

Oh. No, no, no. It was just a joke. I'm sorry.

You brought Little Miss Cheerboots to our zombie match?

The human.

Here.

It started. Come on.

Welcome to Zombieland. It's a party. Go ahead. Everybody dance. Do the draggy

leg. You surely can be a part of the team. Gotta wave the flag. Let your

freak flag fly.

Gotta stare when we pass by.

Not your average guy, but you know I'm fly. So alive, just on a different side.

Look in my eye. We're the same, but different. Just like you, I got hopes

and wishes.

Itching. We show the world what they're missing. It's our time. Yeah, it's time

to flip it. What? I'm about to show you. What you gonna show me? Guess nobody

told you. You ain't gotta tell me. I'm about to put in work. Listen, this is...

Oh man, oh man.

We're all cool. At first it was scary.

And we can do a lot with a little. Calling your friends when you're caught

in the middle.

And you should do the same like I do the same. You should be yourself. It's the

coolest thing.

I'm about to show you. What you gonna show me? Guess somebody told you. Girl,

you don't know me. I'm about to put in work.

Listen, this is our turf.

Oh man, oh man, I'm a man, but you can't do it like I can.

Oh man, oh man.

Oh, man, oh, man.

What is up?

I don't know.

Z-band hack really hurts. I can barely feel my wrist.

Sure.

I'll be fine, buddy. Don't worry about it.

Okay, Bondo, my arm.

Cheering. Please don't tell anyone.

You're Zed's little sister, right?

I'm Zoe.

You're Addison.

My cheer makes me happy.

Me too.

You're great at cheerleading, Zoe.

Thanks, Bob. My pet, Xandor, doesn't seem that impressed.

Well, he should be.

But I think you're old enough to have a real pet.

Wouldn't that be awesome?

Stop, Suzanne.

You know they don't allow zombies to have pets.

I didn't know that.

I'm still learning that zombies aren't what I was taught.

I mean, look at you.

You're smart, cool, pretty.

You think I'm pretty?

Yeah.

There you are.

Zoe? Whoa.

What are you doing here? Please, I'm not going to miss a zombie mash.

Zoe. Come on.

Me. Good boy. Good boy.

All right, all right, all right.

I'll take you home.

Dad's got to make sure Addison gets out of here.

We should hang out, Eliza.

I really like your boots. Oh, thanks.

Thor thought I got this rocky foot thing going on.

She's cool.

Yeah, for a human, right?

She's just cool.

You guys look good together.

Hey, don't forget Xander.

See ya.

Bye.

Wow.

What is this place?

It's a zombie light garden.

It's beautiful.

Where are we going?

For a walk in the park.

I know you might be crazy, but did you hear the story?

on the darker side oh i got a feeling if you get to know me

right from the start you caught my eye

It's beautiful.

You're beautiful.

Zombies, show yourselves!

You're out past curfew! Curfew?

Come on, let's go!

Zombie fleas, turn around!

Go home, zombies!

Zombie patrol, everyone! Addison?

Gus? What are you doing here?

This is a hotbed for zombie activity. It's not safety helmets.

Come on, let's get you home.

You know how dangerous it is out there? I'm gonna go, Chief. This town is full

of monstrous zombies. What were you up to?

Uh, I... I was out with a boy.

Oh, boy. Probably a good idea I just leave, Chief.

So who exactly is this boy?

Well? Well? Good night, Chief. You will not cheer, and there will be no cheer

championship until we meet this boy. Right, no cheer championships until...

Honey, I... No, it does, sweetie. I'm not changing.

Right. We need to meet this boy, Addison, or you'll never cheer again.

Right, Gus.

Good night, Chief.

All right, mighty shrimp.

Today's the day we've all been waiting for.

It's a wholesome game.

Look, I'm all for trampling the system and the opposing team, but you really

got to stop messing with your Z-band, okay? It's not safe. It's just one more

game to get through.

And then no more hacking your Z-band?

Yeah. Totally.

Okay.

Zed's cheating.

He's been hacking his Z-band.

Addison!

Last night, I wanted to help when the zombie patrol arrived, but I was just

having some phrases.

Zed, it's not your fault.

The big problem is my parents won't let me cheer until they meet you.

Great, so I'll just win them over with my quick win and charming smile.

No, not great.

They don't know you're a zombie.

And they hate zombies.

Yeah.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry for making things difficult for you.

No, no, you haven't done anything wrong besides being you.

And you're great.

You know what?

If my family can't accept zombies, maybe I don't want to be a cheerleader

anymore. But you love cheer.

It's what makes you, you.

I wish I could just flip a switch and change everything.

But I can't.

I have to go and wait for class.

Whip a switch.

How is Zed winning these football games?

Cheers, spirits.

Glory to all. That is firecracker, firecracker, shish, boom, bop.

Send me a sign so that my perfectly toned body can stop zombies from

stealing our spotlight.

Hacking his demon. It's all about Eliza, and she's using her computer to do it.

She's Boomba.

I spotted all of us hanging.

We've been so wrong about zombies this whole time.

Yeah, I mean, with some concealer, blush, contour, highlight, and a little

bit of hair dye, you could look cute.

And I mean, when was the last time you pampered yourself?

Yeah, giggling over makeup and doing each other's toenails? No sale.

You like computers, right?

My mom just set up a full VR room.

VR?

Okay, I mean, I don't want to discriminate against humans, so in a way

it'd be wrong for me not to take you up on your offer.

Um, yeah, I'm in.

Okay, on second thought, maybe not. Maybe next time.

No, I can't access it. There's a firewall on Eliza's computer.

You have to get in and show everyone that Zed's a monster.

Try harder.

Not that horn!

So, Eliza told me not to swipe right, but no risk, no reward.

This is gonna hurt.

Something happened! The software's corrupted!

We're in!

I can't do this anymore.

There's something you need to know.

Okay. Now we're getting somewhere. Now we're getting somewhere.

He's... here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. You do not want to open that. Where are your manners? Don't

be ridiculous.

Okay, fine, open it.

Yes, my date to the homecoming game is... Handsome.

You look... Dashing.

Oh, thank you. They're beautiful.

So, how do you know my daughter?

She's a cheerleader, and I'm on the football team.

No, really?

Really. You know, I used to play a little ball myself.

He did. Really? Really. I was a fullback. Get out. I'm a fullback. No.

Yeah.

Let's do this.

Let's go. Minus three. Great.

On five.

That is amazing.

That's what I'm talking about. We're going to go to the homecoming game. Nice

meeting you.

He's such a nice boy. Such a nice boy. Where did you dig him up?

I'll see you at the game.

How did you? I adjusted my Z-band. I can feel the energy coursing through my

bones right now. It's awesome.

Hey, we still got time before the game.

I owe you a real date.

A date? Yep.

Like I said, a proper date.

Wow.

You okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm all good.

Eliza was wrong. Nothing bad happened. I'm completely fine.

After you.

Thanks.

Vanilla. Vanilla.

Double vanilla.

Can you guess what the last one is? Vanilla. Yeah, how'd you know?

You guys got a wide variety.

A vanilla.

Here you go.

Thank you. You're welcome.

This is so Seabrook.

Hey, you know what?

Vanilla works.

I've always wanted to come here.

Now finally, here I am with you on a date.

This is so great.

Right?

Is it, Seth?

Yeah. Look at us. We're together.

But you're forced to be someone you're not.

Here and on the football field. So?

You wear a wig to fit in.

Why can't I do the same thing with my Z-band? Why is that so bad?

Because it's not right.

We're changing ourselves.

When what needs to change is everybody else.

Addie, we're going to make this work, okay?

Everything's great.

Trust me.

I'll dial myself back to zombie mode and win the game.

Take your pom-poms out there today, Bree.

But I'm not a starter.

Who says?

It's time things changed around here.

We can win this. I could keep my job.

Buy slacks that aren't sweatpants. Maybe even win back Max White.

She likes the slacks. Okay? Let's do this!

Ready? Yes, please!

Let's go, Mighty Shrimp Break!

Yeah!

Hustle out there! Remember the slacks!

Wow, people really love Zed.

It's almost like he's one of us.

He is one of us.

You're right.

He is.

You okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, uh, almost there. I do this and we win.

Addison! Oh, I have to go.

But I'll be cheering for you.

You're way too good of a cheerleader to throw your life away, Addison.

I'm cheering for a change, Bucky.

Don't do it.

Give me a C!

C!

Addison? Give me a B!

B!

I'm warning you.

Stage one is done.

50 yards to go and three seconds on the clock.

The Mighty Shrimp needs one touchdown to win.

It's not working.

The software's been corrupted. How?

I'll do something.

Dad, what did you do?

I can still do this.

Even as regular old me, I can do this.

Initially. Initially.

Stage three, Fondo and Eliza.

Didn't think of that.

Everything will be okay. Just listen to me. No, no, no. Why are you taking him?

Come on, let's go. No, please.

Dad, please come back.

No, please.

Addison, stay back.

No.

No.

Hey. These guys are bringing him in. Good.

Hey, these are my friends.

We don't have human friends.

I told you, Addie, zombies are not safe.

Give them an inch... And they'll bite your face off. They'll bite your face

off. Hey!

That's my son you're talking about. I suggest you move along, Mr.

Nekodopoulos. I'll make sure they look after him. I'm sorry.

Mom. Dad, please!

Addie, I'm sorry.

Maybe they're right. Maybe we shouldn't be together.

What? No.

Don't...

won't hold my tongue.

No.

Some things are different than we thought.

There's more to life than what we're taught.

I'm speaking up.

Enough's enough.

Spent some time in zombie containment.

Not fun.

It's all my fault.

Thought I was doing something right by doing something wrong.

But now all zombies are getting software updates.

No more tweaking them.

Sweet, Eliza, they have Wi-Fi now.

Too soon?

Cheerleaders steal my computer.

Sabotage everything.

Yet zombies get the blame.

You know, it was stupid of us to think humans were going to change.

You know, we tried doing it the nice way, and now it's time to do it my way,

all right? We'll have a zombie uprising.

Force them to make us equal, or we tear it all down.

Hey, I've been waiting my whole life, all right? I'm sick of waiting.

Oh, your mother and I are so worried.

What were you thinking?

Hey, you could have died adjusting your Z-Band, Zed.

You don't have to change who you are, son. I love who you are. Yeah, but they

don't.

It's getting hot.

With a cheer championship a few hours away, Bucky is purging anyone who isn't

anti-zombie. And that's a lot of people.

What is this?

Huh?

Zombie flair?

You're cut!

Look at this.

More zombie apparel.

You're cut!

Thank you!

This isn't good.

Bucky, what are you doing? Don't doubt me.

We are cheerleaders.

We are flawless.

And that is why we will be perfect at the cheer championship tonight. So we

are going to start at the beginning and go over it.

Over and over.

I can't believe they're sending us back to zombie-only school.

They say it's temporary, but Eliza didn't even show up to school to clean

out her locker.

You got all of her stuff, right?

Eliza's gonna sabotage something?

What?

The cheer championship.

Well, come on. We gotta stop her, dude.

It's been a tremendous day here at the regional cheer championship.

We've already seen a number of high-flying performances.

You could say they've been cheer-tastic.

Well, you could say that. I wouldn't, because it's a made-up word.

We're up next.

How is this going to work? We're not even half a team. We'll be great.

I can feel it in my gut.

It feels like a pit in my stomach.

Well, that was not good.

Bye, Keith.

We're gonna crush this.

Flying higher than anyone's ever flown?

That was a stupid dream.

No, you will fly.

Someday. As soon as this town gets over itself.

I thought your parents didn't want you on public with your real hair. They

don't. But they can't make me hide it anymore.

I'm not leaving the seat.

No way. My dad's whole patrol couldn't get me out of the seat.

I don't know, Bondo. She has to be here somewhere.

There! It's dead!

Um, I'm gonna leave my seat. Go!

Okay, go!

Hey! No, no, no, no, no, no! Put that away! Stop! Stop! Everybody stop! Ow!

Get off of me, you big lug!

Eliza, you can't do this. What?

Enjoy the cheer championship with some fellow zombies?

Zagrabage.

Sabotage? No.

Wow. I'm deeply offended. I'd never... Okay, maybe just a little

sabotage.

Ruining the cheer championship is only going to prove their worst fears.

That zombies are monsters.

They think that anyway.

At least you have the guts to stand up for yourself.

I say do it. Okay, you know what, Addison? You're not going to change my

mind.

Wait, you agree with me?

Okay, I like this girl.

Sabotage isn't the zombie way.

It's not who we are. It's not who you are.

I'm not a monster. I'm a zombie.

You're a cheerleader.

You're not going to change the world through sabotage. You change the world

through cheer.

Okay, um, so, no sabotage?

No sabotage, Eliza.

That's not who I am.

That's not who we are.

People, stop that!

Put your hands together for our defending champions, a team that needs

no introduction.

But since we're doing it anyway, it might as well be overblown and flashy.

The sweetest type of sabotage. Self-sabotage.

Seconds in and Seabrook is literally falling apart.

Get off the stage, Bucky!

What's that sound?

I think they're booing us.

Oh, there seems to be technical difficulties with Seabrook's audio

track.

You have one job.

Let's go see my kids!

Get off the stage, zombie!

T-O-Go!

Go, Sim, go!

What is she doing?

She's changing things.

By cheering. But that's not how change works.

You can't just change things with one person and a pair of pom-poms.

Yeah, you're right.

It's going to take more than just one person.

It's going to take all of us.

Might as well ever see us as normal.

They won't.

Because we're not normal.

And they need to see that.

Zombies celebrate their differences.

So let's go out there and celebrate.

Cheer championship style.

You guys in?

So this is our revolution?

Yeah, this is our revolution.

Okay, but does it have to be cheer, though? Come on.

Bucky, things can change.

Look, change is happening, Bucky.

And we're not going away.

So, you can either fight us and lose, or you can be a part of it.

Guess we need a new captain.

All right, here's the plan.

We're going to let our freak flags fly.

Zombies and cheerleaders are on the floor together.

You are watching history unfold.

Been waiting for this day to come and it was all so clear.

Since I was a little girl.

got no doubt together we can build it up can you hear us now

We're missing this, the best cheerleader I ever saw.

I'm good.

So are you.

I know.

Yeah. I gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar-gar

Hey, Zoe.

Look what Addison got you.

We got your back, no need to have worries. Now we're all cool, at first it

was scary.

And we can do a lot with a little car. Are you friends when you're caught in

the middle?

And you should do the same like I do the same.

You should be yourself, that's a cool thing.

I'm about to show you. I'm about to show you. Yeah, somebody told you. Nobody

told you. I'm about to put in work.

Listen, this is our turf.
