Episode 6 opens up with the riot van and the zombies with the song “Wild Thing” playing. Inside the riot van, the riot cop, the prisoner, Léo, Levi and Ana are inside and are alive. Ana points out a manhole that leads to the studio — she highlights it is risky but it’s their only chance.

Ana plays different sounds from the control room to confuse the zombies while Léo, Teresa, and the riot cop clear each room. It’s a strategy that is working out nicely. Eventually, the rooms are free from zombies. But then Zombie Nina turns up and Ana notices that she’s different because she’s calmer — she walks up to her and Zombie Nina starts biting her. They kill Zombie Nina. As the episode closes, Ana heats up a knife and presses it against her bitten skin.
