    Great episode, show is back on track

    Z Nation (and the 'other' Zombie show) are much better with on the road adventures with a tight cast, as opposed to multi-week/season set pieces against a Big Bad. with a sprawling cast. This episode juxtaposes the current day situation, 7 years in, against the events at the beginning of the outbreak, with action, humor, and even a touching plot with a would-be TV star who would have made it big if it weren't for the darn apocalypse.

    My interest perked up

    I love flashbacks and the beginning of an apocalypse, so watching this episode perked my interest with this slow moving show.

      Before getting to redacted documents on fiche, Kaya could clearly see (if she stopped to read it) all the info about Black Rainbow when she first puts in the large floppy disk and initially finds out about the launch codes (info contained in 4-5 paragraphs that are inconsistently repeated over and over).
