Trip Ubusan: The Lolas vs Zombies 2017

Outbreak at the restaurant

A man at a restaurant eats crispy pata and suddenly falls ill, collapsing. He reanimates into a zombie and bites a nearby patron, igniting chaos as patrons flee in panic. This opening event establishes the outbreak's origin and raises the stakes for the characters.

Lolas plan Charmaine's ninth birthday camping

The Lolas organize a home camping session for Charmaine's ninth birthday and prepare tents, snacks, and stories. They move from their home toward a makeshift campsite while the contagion looms in the background. The plan foreshadows their attempt to keep life normal amid growing danger.

Ivy is zombified and killed

Charmaine invites their neighbor Ivy to the camping event, but Ivy is chased back by the zombified and is killed by the Lolas. The moment hints at the outbreak spreading beyond their circle. The family remains largely unaware of how widespread the crisis has become.

Escape toward air field and gas station stop

The Lolas flee toward their private air field to escape the outbreak and stop at a gas station to stock up. A fresh wave of chaos erupts there as more zombies spill into the road, forcing everyone to improvise on the fly.

Charmaine separated; joins a larger survivor group

During the stop, Charmaine becomes separated from her family and ends up with a group of survivors including teenagers and other seekers of safety. They board a tour bus under the watch of Jordan and Abe, beginning a perilous shared journey. The split sets Charmaine on a new path through the outbreak.

Tour bus escape begins

The survivors escape aboard a tour bus driven by Jordan with his assistant Abe. They monitor news updates about the outbreak as the city falls further into chaos. The bus becomes a fragile lifeboat against the spreading infection.

Abandoned mechanic shop to zombie-proof the bus

The group stops at an abandoned mechanic shop to zombie-proof the bus and stock up on supplies. They reinforce doors and plan defenses as night falls. The detour underscores how quickly survival logistics become central to their journey.

Melo reanimates; Loid kills him

Melo, who had eaten infected pork, reanimates aboard the bus and attacks Irish. Loid shoots Melo through the heart to stop the threat, restoring a tense calm. Will and Aladin warn of a larger approaching horde.

Cathy pushed off; Eva triggers panic

Cathy tries to rescue Will from danger, but Eva pushes her off the bus in a moment of tension. The group fights back against the encroaching dead as Will and Cathy later reappear as zombies. The cost of survival weighs heavily on the survivors.

Zombies are finished off; Will and Cathy turn

The Lolas arrive to finish off the zombies before they overwhelm the bus. Charmaine is reunited with the family, but Will and Cathy reappear as zombies, setting a grim tone for the survivors. The emotional balance shifts toward loss and caution.

Checkpoint failsafe; Nidora is bitten

The group pushes toward a military safe zone, stopping at a checkpoint. Lola Nidora is bitten, and the group debates whether to reveal the injury; Eva urges immediate removal, but the others decide the bite isn't yet severe enough. This moment crystallizes the dilemma of who gets treated and who is left behind.

Loid arrested; extraction plan compromised

Loid’s true identity is revealed at the checkpoint and he is arrested. Soldiers direct the group toward an extraction point by boat, but a horde erupts as Jordan parks the bus, scattering the survivors and forcing them to improvise a new plan. Tensions rise as trust among the group frays.

Jordan sacrifice and split toward safety

Jordan is bitten and, to prevent reanimation, stabs himself and retreats into the bus with Abe. The group splits as the dawn approaches, with some survivors seeking shelter in an abandoned building while others push toward safety. The cost of survival becomes painfully clear.

Aladin and Irish; Eva’s sacrifice at extraction

Aladin and Irish are trapped in an abandoned building while Eva and Marcy reach the extraction point. Eva, seeing her reanimated husband, walks away and allows herself to be bitten. The moral toll of survival weighs on the group as they press on.
