As Mr. Lane and his group arrive at a fortified gate, they find it unexpectedly secured and guarded by Ben, who refuses to open it. Frustrated, Lane orders an attack to break through, instructing his men to kill the men and capture the women inside. A fierce battle ensues, with defenders holding the line despite the attackers’ use of heavy firepower and a reinforced truck aimed at crashing the gate. Amid warnings to avoid gunfire to prevent attracting zombies, the attackers escalate their assault, leaving the gate’s fate and the defenders’ survival hanging in the balance.
