The next morning after crossing the river, the survivors are met by some of Morton's soldiers, who kill Joe. The other four escape as the final stage of Morton's zombie eradication begins and Dr. Holder expresses his worries that the infection of the atmosphere may not be restricted to the island. Arriving at the nearby Santa Monica Hospital, the four encounter a pregnant woman in labor. As Nancy helps deliver the newborn, Patricia engages in a final deathmatch against the zombie Glenn and beheads him, while Kenny and Roger have another run-in with Morton's cleanup crew. Nancy is killed by the zombified newborn when it tears its way out of the mother's womb and latches onto her face. Meanwhile Kenny, Roger and Patricia escape to find more zombies waiting for the kill. They make it to a helicopter, but only Kenny and Patricia are able to escape with their lives. Roger is attacked by the zombies while trying to join them and is subsequently killed by the cleanup crew. To Patricia's horror, the zombies have taken over; Blue Heart, the DJ who provided commentary for much of the film, even dedicates his next record to "all the undead around the world", having been infected himself. Upon hearing the broadcast, Kenny decides to return to the island, assuring Patricia that he intends to save what's left of humanity from the zombies.
