A New Mission: Season 3, Episode 2

WARNING: If you don't want to know what happens in this episode, don't read this photo recap!

We pick up right where we left off at the end of Season 2, with Roberta, Addy, Doc and Hector surrounded by Pan Asian solders. The leader of this squad is Dr. Sun Mei, and she's come all the way from Beijing to track down The Murphy and cultivate a cure for the zombie virus. Is Sun Mei the new CDC? Let's just hope she's at least friendly-ish ...

After some initial tension, the Operation Bitemark gang gets on friendly-ish terms with Sun Mei's brigade and together they hike through the wilderness to get to a supply drop.

They've got to deal with the usual pesky Z's, and there's a new threat in town, too: insane, starving, feral humans known as the Enders.

Luckily, Sun Mei's team is well-equipped with tricked-out weaponry like the Anti-Zombie Grenade, which utilizes multiple green lasers as a targeting mechanism and fires nail-like projectiles. Neat! (Actually, it's rather messy, but you know what we mean.)

Oh, and they present Addy with a new and improved Z-whacker, complete with shocking new features. Zap!

And then there's Murphy. He makes it to shore with the Captain of the submarine that went ka-boom and Dr. Merch, both under his mind control thanks to their Murphy bites.

And 10K's with him, too, alive and none too thrilled to be teamed up with his least favorite person on the planet. Murphy's now completely disillusioned with humanity, and he's sure as hell not going to provide a cure for the rich jerks at Zona, so he formulates his own post-apocalyptic plan: populate the world with 'Blends,' which are essentially humans under Murphy's control. Swell.

Meanwhile, the road to the supply drop is treacherous, and Sun Mei loses all of her troops en route … and when they finally get to the supplies, they've been looted!

Murphy got to the drop first, and he and Roberta have a heated face-off as he drives up in a fortified military vehicle.

Murphy's even got a sniper in place should Roberta or anyone else try anything funny: 10K, who's now been bitten by Murphy.

After failing to convince Roberta and the gang to join his cause, Murphy drives off, leaving them to hike it back to Hector's truck and commence with their own new mission: stop Murphy from starting his new race of Blends.

Oh, we almost forgot: Citizen Z! He and his doggie have been rescued from freezing to death by a cute Inuit girl named Kaya. When last we see him, Citizen Z seems to be settling into semi-retirement up there in the zombie-free hinterlands, along with Kaya's nana and Uncle Kaskae. We're sure trouble will come a'calling sooner rather than later, but for now it's nice to see our lonely hero catching a break (and maybe even a girlfriend!).

Oh, this guy. The episode ends with The Man showing up at the warehouse where the gang found the looted supply drop ... holding a piece of paper with Murphy's name on it. Trouble!
