The Perfect Escape

Eventually, Nate and Kate stop to build a campfire with a flint striker that Kate has brought; they also eat their pre-packed dinners. Kate finally shares her plan to move to New York with the prize money if they win. Nate tells her about his family’s financial struggles and admits that he needs the money to help his family keep their house. He enjoys how easy it is to talk to Kate. She then tells him about her mother’s death and explains that she blames her father for refusing to get timely medical treatment for her mother. Nate holds her as she cries. Suddenly, they hear zombies approaching and smell their foul stench. They quickly grab their things and run. Eventually, they reach a clearing, exhausted but safe. Kate makes torches out of tree branches before they keep moving.

Kate and Nate run into another team, a man and woman who are popular survivalists from a show called American Muscle Hustle. The team tries to intimidate Nate and Kate by attacking them with weapons. Nate fights back using his Krav Maga skills and steals the man’s bo staff before discovering that the woman is holding a “wanted” flyer.
