    The Day One in the Lives of the Survivors

    Citizen Z finds that he has been hacked and recalls how he was invited to work in the Northern Light Post of NSA, after being arrested accused on espionage. Meanwhile the survivors reach California and now they are walking to get Murphy to the CDC. Warren recalls when she was a National Guard Lieutenant and found her soldiers turned into zombies. Doc recalls when he was at a mental institution to help addicted people when the outbreak busted. Addy was watching a hockey game and how she teamed-up with Mack to flee from the zombies. 10K was fishing in a river by the woods and he was saved by his father. Vasquez was at the funeral of his wife and daughter and soon the funeral director, his wife and his daughter turned into zombies. Murphy was in prison and witnessed inmates and guards turning into zombies. When they reach the location of CDC in accordance with the GPS, they find a restaurant with a woman behind bar counter.

    "Day One" is another great episode of Z Nation that shows how each survivor acknowledge the zombie outbreak. Vasquez is the creepiest part of the show and the scene with his beloved wife and daughter turning into zombie is impressive and scary. One of the best moments of this show. Let 's see whether the next episode concludes the episode or ends in its climax. My vote is eight.

    Title (Brazil): "Day One"
