Day One: Season 2, Episode 14

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

Here's Citizen Z, prior to the zombie outbreak, when he was known simply as 'Simon.' It turns out he was arrested for hacking shenanigans ... and then offered a job at the NSA. The government knows talent when they see it!

And now here he is, up in the Northern Light listening station with his dog. And it turns out he's been hacked! Uh-oh.

Meanwhile, the team's El Caminos aren't drivable anymore, so they're on foot for the final miles to the CDC. Roberta wonders, "How did it all get like this?" ... and we're about to find out with lots of flashbacks!

Pre-Apocalypse, Roberta Warren was a Lieutenant with the National Guard. She got her first taste of zombies at the base where she was stationed.

As landmarks go, the team is going to have to issue one of their "We Were Never Near" statements, this time with Disneyland. Also, we're about to get another peek into the past. The Day One flashback this time? Doc's.

It turns out that Doc was an addiction counselor working at a center where he was pretty good at keeping people calm via the power of hugs. That is, until the zombies showed up and turned his patient (and everyone else in the office) into a zombie.

Meanwhile, in the present, it seems as though someone has been hacking the listening station. But who?

Mack! He's back! Turns out that Mack and Addy met at a hockey game on the first day of the apocalypse. They decide to stick together and, well, we know how that turned out. Anyone else super-excited to find out where she picked up the Z-Whacker?

10K's Day One story is pretty harrowing, as he was alone in the woods and chased by zombie hunters. After a good deal of running, 10K (then known simply as 'Tommy') was rescued by his father and learned how to shoot zombies in the head.

Meanwhile, Citizen Z plants a bug to trace his hacker.

Wondering about Vasquez's Day One story? It's really intense! Turns out the funeral for his wife and daughter was on the first day of the Z outbreak. And, horribly, the first zombies he encountered were the funeral director ... and zombie versions of his wife and daughter, crawling out of their damn coffins.

Murphy, meanwhile, has a quiet moment in the midst of the mayhem. He wonders why he, of all people, was chosen to be the Zombie Messiah.

Here's Murphy before he became all zombie blue, in prison for postal fraud. When a jailyard murder goes awry due to the sudden appearance of zombies, it's every man for himself. Murphy escapes but also locks the gate so that others can't get out.

Roberta and Murphy have a heart-to-heart. When Murphy tells her that he doesn't want the responsibility of saving humankind and that the CDC is going to hurt him, Roberta tells him they're bound to each other and she'll be there to help him.

Citizen Z discovers that the hackers have been using him to track Operation Bitemark the entire time. He destroys his servers, hoping to keep the team's current location a secret.

Following the supposed coordinates for the CDC, the team comes across an abandoned restaurant. Roberta and Vasquez go in to investigate ...

Inside, they find the Tea Lady, who's got some serious equipment behind the bar. This could get ugly ...
