Bob, Petra, Saul, Derek, Debbie and Courtney accompanied the three medics down to the infirmary. Two of the medics were bitten and had patched each other up, the other was still suffering the effects of the unearthly moan uttered by Mrs Haynes. No-one had been able to raise the infirmary either on the phone or by radio.
When they reached the infirmary the lights were out and one of the medics went inside to turn on the lights. The now visible infirmary looked like a charnel house - blood pooled on the floor and was smeared on the walls. Billy Haynes was clearly visible - naked and covered in blood - gnawing on the face of a corpse. The group were all horrified and two of the medics immediately fled. Billy Haynes let out a moan much like that of his wife. Most of the group fled the infirmary. Bob went searching for a weapon and found a fire axe hanging on the wall. Debbie pulled her friend Naomi out of the room and down the corridor. Petra found a fire extinguisher hanging on the wall. Courtney legged it down the hall, pausing only to set off the fire alarm. Derek entered the infirmary looking for a weapon. He made it up onto the counter of the nurses station, finding another corpse lying on the floor. He was approached by Billy but kicked him in the head hoping to push him back. Billy lunged forward and sunk his teeth into Derek's thigh. Derek ran for the operating theatres at the back of the infirmary, hoping to find a weapon. Saul, hearing the commotion, re-entered the infirmary and also started looking for a weapon.
Bob reached the elevator and met a young girl called Lucy, who seemed to know about the zombies and also seemed fairly unconcerned. They waited for the elevator. Debbie and Naomi entered a bar opposite the elevator looking for weapons or a way to contact security. Courtney decided the elevator was taking to long and left via the fire stairs.
Derek found himself trapped in the operating theatre, though he was managing to keep Billy at bay with a gurney. Saul jumped into the nurses station and found a small fire extinguisher and a first aid kit. Petra seeing that Saul was being chased by a second zombie lept to the attack and smashed in the head of a zombie with her fire extinguisher. A third zombie then rose up. Petra threw her extinguisher at the new zombie to little effect and fled. She met Roman Cole in the corridor and tried to convince him to run away from the zombie behind him. He refused and was almost immediately savagely bitten on the neck, almost dying. Derek managed to zap Billy with a defibrillator and run from the operating theatre. As he was leaving the infirmary he met Roman entering, looking for help.
At this point ship security turned up and demanded everyone drop their weapons and cease robbing the bar. Everyone tried to convince the security guards that something terrible was happening, to little avail. It wasn't until Saul explained the situation while nearly being bitten by a zombie that the security guards opened fire. Bob was also shot at fleeing the scene.
Debbie was attacked by a fourth zombie but managed to bring it down with a stolen bottle of booze. The group then fled back to their floor. Roman saw the three security guards being devoured as the group fled the floor.
When the group met up again they were all being covered by another group of security guards. They met Jason Kirkman, head of security. Debbie did such a good job of explaining to Kirkman what was going on that they weren't all immediately arrested, though it was unclear whether he believed them about the zombie aspect of their story. The group visited their own rooms to collect personal effects and then were confined to Courtney's room.
They were just beginning to bed down when a terrified scream was heard from outside...
