What the fuck is happening? This is ridiculous. Flying skulls everywhere, zombies…Jesus Christ, what did the Delta Labs screw up this time? What possible commercial application could there be for turning your friends into zombies right in front of you and forcing you to kill them for your own survival?

If this is a joke, it ain't a good one.

01: 08: 51

I can see you staring at me. You're not alive. You're not dead. You're…you're not even screaming like everyone else in this facility.

Please…talk to me…

02: 15: 13

You think you can fool me? I've seen the creatures out there. Well, I'm not going to die. I'll survive and watch as your corpses are incinerated. What, you think I feel guilty? Well, you got another thing coming!

Idiots…

03: 04: 45

I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have talked to you guys like that! The monsters came and…well, I can't expect you to do much right now. But don't worry. We'll get out of this alive. I'll bring you back to Earth, bring you back to life and we'll party like it's 2101.

04: 51: 50

See, my friends? All you need is a little faith. Ships will come, you'll see. We'll get off Mars. This entire place can go to Hell for all I care.

05: 25: 12

Stop staring at me! God, I know you're dead and all, but seriously, you don't have to drive that fact home!

06: 06: 06

You think I'm crazy? You think I'm insane? Well, guess who's possibly the only human left alive on this fucking planet? Hah! You just wait! I'll show you who's crazy in the end!

07: 08: 01

Oh Father, thou art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, on Mars as it is in Heaven…

08: 50: 20

Pretty drawing…red paint…so much red…won't run out…

Got to write. Use red pen. Will reveal truth.

Oh look! More red paint spilled…

09: 22: 04

Oh the demon thought he had on me,

Truly got the drop.

But then I got my paintbrush red,

And smote him in the chops.

10: 18: 17

I'm hungry…

Know what? We should have a party! Come on, it'll be great! There's more than enough meat around here for a barbeque and none of it is more than a few hours old. And all this ketchup around us…shouldn't let that go to waste either.

11: 31: 13

Well I'm back. Sorry that took so long. One of the pieces of meat thought it was still alive. But I showed him. His screams were nothing compared to my shopping skills.

Alright my friends, prepare for the time of your life. Boy that smells good, not to mention that…oh hey look. More visitors. They look hungry as well…
