The setup

A real estate agent's late-night cabin showing becomes a zombie siege she seems suspiciously well prepared for.

The premise

Here’s the bit.

Miss Jones brings her client to a secluded cabin after dark for a property showing. When a zombie lurches out of the trees she hurries him inside, and every crisis that follows becomes another excuse to get closer: she rubs his arms while he braces the door, blames the dead power on the zombies and produces a roomful of lit candles, steers him away from a room full of weapons into a cramped closet, and unpacks sparkling cider and glazed salmon while quizzing him about his family. Just as he admits he feels close to her, one of the zombies wanders in, tells Mal it is ten o'clock and the group is heading out, giving away that the attack was staged. The zombies shuffle off and she goes back to pressing him to try the salmon.

The funny people

Meet the cast. 6

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

Those zombies must have chewed through the power lines, those dang zombies.

It's got problems, asbestos and brimstone.

Hey Mal, it's 10 o'clock, so we're gonna get going.

    Client

    This is the property you wanted to show me? It's a little secluded. Is there a reason you wanted to meet up so late? And alone?

  2. 00:15

    Miss Jones

    Well, you know, I'm your real estate agent. I am always on duty. I work all hours for you. I'd do anything for you. You know, and plus it's kind of romantic. You know, just if you want, maybe.

  3. 00:27

    Client

    Sure. Miss Jones, I feel like I should tell you...

  4. 00:31

    Miss Jones

    Oh, what the... Quick, Quick, inside the cabin!

  5. 00:38

    Client

    What? No, shouldn't we just drive away?

  6. 00:39

    Miss Jones

    Oh, oh no! The brakes are out and we can't!

  7. 00:46

    Client

    Now we gotta get this door closed!

  8. 00:49

    Miss Jones

    Let me help you, just... Nice.

  9. 00:52

    Client

    What? How is this helping?

  10. 00:54

    Miss Jones

    Just warming up your muscles. Soft. soft. Okay.

  11. 01:02

    Client

    Great, no electricity.

  12. 01:03

    Miss Jones

    Those zombies must have chewed through the power lines, those dang zombies.

  13. 01:08

    Client

    What? How did they get all the way up there?

  14. 01:10

    Miss Jones

    It's a good thing I have all these candles, right?

  15. 01:13

    Client ?

    How did you light all of those so quickly? Ah! Ah! Run! Oh, Oh, perfect. We can use these weapons to defend ourselves.

  16. 01:28

    Miss Jones

    Oh, you know, this room's no good. It's got problems, asbestos and brimstone. This way, this way.

  17. 01:38

    Client

    Well, great. Well, great. I'm glad we ended up in this insanely small closet instead.

  18. 01:44

    Miss Jones

    Oh, you're right. It's like ice in here, so... Oh, this is nice.

  19. 01:51

    Client ?

    Oh, God. I'm so thirsty.

  20. 01:54

    Miss Jones

    Oh, I might be able to find something, maybe. I don't know. Like... Oh, sparkling cider and, um, a salmon with a honey lemon glaze. Who knew, you know? So, what are your parents like?

  21. 02:08

    Client

    What?

  22. 02:08

    Miss Jones

    Oh, they're not going to get in here. This is tree wood. So, did you have any siblings? Where did you grow up?

  23. 02:17

    Client

    Okay, Miss Jones, now is not the time.

  24. 02:19

    Miss Jones

    You really should try the salmon, though. It's good.

  25. 02:21

    Client

    What? No, no.

  26. 02:22

    Miss Jones

    It's really good.

  27. 02:23

    Client

    Shh.

  28. 02:24

    Miss Jones

    Oh, just, you can just whisper it to me. What is it?

  29. 02:27

    Client

    I think they might be leaving.

  30. 02:29

    Miss Jones

    Looks OK. Looks like the coast is clear. like the coast is clear.

  31. 02:39

    Client

    You know, Miss Jones, after all we've been through, I feel really close to you.

  32. 02:46

    Zombie

    Hey Mel, it's 10 o'clock so we're gonna get going.

  33. 02:55

    Zombie ?

    Calls are bad. Just

  34. 03:00

    What's wrong with you?

  35. 03:05

    Miss Jones

    So try. it?
