Vijay: We can't run out either.
Ahmad: And we can't shoot him. There are tons of zombies outside—one gunshot and we're trapped in here.
Vijay: What if we… bind him?
Arjun: Bind?
Vijay: I mean—he's alone. We can tie him up, right?
Sia: Do you even understand what a zombie is?
Ahmad: Actually… he's not wrong. We're five, he's one. We can knock him down.
Arjun: No, idiot. Sia is right. We don't know who will end up getting knocked down—maybe us.
Ahmad: Then any other option? Without light we can't even find an elephant in here.
Silence.
Ahmad: I take that as a yes.
Sia (sarcastic): And how exactly will you bind him, mastermind?
Ahmad: Easy. Me and Arjun are wearing double uniforms. We take one off.
Arjun: Well…
Ahmad: It's a yes. Come on, take it off.
Ahmad slipped off one of his uniform jackets. Arjun reluctantly removed his extra jacket too.
Ahmad crawled out from under the table, ready. Arjun waited below with the other jacket.
Ahmad moved behind the zombie and quickly wrapped the jacket around its mouth. At the same time, Arjun tied the other jacket tightly around the zombie's legs. The zombie thrashed, trying to bite, but the thick uniform cloth blocked its mouth.
Ahmad grabbed one of its lowered sleeves and twisted it around the zombie's arms. Arjun held the hands in place until the knots tightened.
Together, they dragged the bound zombie and pushed it into a corner.
While they were tying him up, Sia quietly turned the lights back on.
The zombie coach tried to free himself, but they had tied him tightly.
Lily stared in shock, eyes wide and confused at how they even managed to do that.
Sia: "You really knocked him down?" (shocked)
Arjun: "Yeah… I guess so." (rubbing his neck, still unsure how he'd done it)
Ahmad: "Let's find the phones now."
Lily stepped out and began helping them. They all scattered around the room, checking every corner, throwing papers, reports, and files everywhere. Lily walked toward a cupboard, opened it, and started searching between the files. She found a small locker hidden inside. She quickly called the others and pulled Vijay, who was closest to her, showing him the locker.
Vijay: "Hey, there's a locker here."
Sia: "The phones must be inside. We've searched everywhere else." (throws the pile of papers in her hand)
Ahmad: "But it's digital?"
Arjun: "Which means we need the password… or—" (slowly turning toward the zombie coach)
Sia: "His fingerprint?" (in disbelief)
Ahmad: "Guessing the password isn't that hard." (starts pressing random buttons — wrong, wrong, wrong)
Sia grabs his hand.
Sia: "It's a six-digit code. Guessing it is impossible with the time and information we have."
Arjun: "So we'll need his fingerprints." (looking at the zombie's hand with disgust)
Ahmad: "The good thing is he can't bite us now, so we can drag him over. The bad thing… we don't know which finger he used."
Sia: "How many chances did you use?"
Ahmad: "Three."
Sia: "Most six-digit locks give only five attempts, so we have two left. Thanks to you, idiot." (glares at Ahmad)
Lily suddenly pinches her own thumb.
Sia: "Life? What? Suddenly?"
Lily shakes her head and points at her thumb again.
Sia: "Oh! Thumb. Yes, we should try the right thumb or index finger first. People usually use those."
