She walks to the backdoor, looks outside for Jake, then closes it. She walks to the basement door looks into the darkness below then closes the door. Unseen by Ramona, VICKI, 30s, the sexy neighbor who wears her dresses too tight and too high, stands in the corner facing the wall. Ramona stares out the window at the setting sun before pulling a large trash bag from under the sink then entering the living room to pick up Freckles' toys and dog beds. POLICE CARS, SIRENS BLARING, SPEED down the street. Their blue and red lights casting eerie shadows on the curtains. Ramona runs to the window but is unable to see anything.

A banner beneath the ANCHORWOMAN, 30s, pretty, reads: Warning: RABIES OUTBREAK EFFECTING LOCAL COMMUNITY. Ramona pulls the vet invoice from her purse: Rabies - New Strain - Euthanize - - $495.00. A tear slips down Ramona's cheek. She stands,continues putting Freckles' toys into the trash bag. She enters her daughter's former bedroom where she finds more toys and another dog bed. As she bends down a SHADOW passes by outside the bedroom window. A STRANGE SCRATCHING SOUND comes from somewhere in the house. A shiver runs down Ramona's back. She enters the master bedroom where more of Freckles' toys litter the ground and another dog bed sits beside what must be Ramona's side of the bed. The COFFEE MAKER BINGS alerting Ramona that the coffee is ready. Hangers in the closet JOSTLE TOGETHER. SHADOWS pass by outside the master bedroom windows. Ramona is a bundle of nerves. FOOTSTEPS make their way down the hallway towards the bedroom. Hangers JOSTLE in the closet. HEAVY BREATHING comes closer. MORE SHADOWS pass the master bedroom windows. Ramona moves towards the mirrored bedroom closet doors. Her hand on the door. RABID VICKI's image appears in the mirror as Ramona opens the closet door.

She knocks the Rabid Neighbors out of the way with the trash bag of Freckles' toys. Rabid Vicki and Rabid Jake SHUFFLE into the living room. Ramona continues beating the Rabid Neighbors away with the trash bag. How will she survive the loss of her beloved pet and best friend, Freckles during a Zombie Apocalypse!?
