The Walking Dead World Beyond Season 2 Post-Credits Scene Explained
Origin Of The Zombies
It’s the revelation that fans of The Walking Dead thought they’d never see happen. The post-credits scene for The Walking Dead: World Beyond set in a science lab that appears to have been abdicated for most of the outbreak. One of the facility’s former scientists returns and is still working on a solution to the zombie virus but is accosted by a survivor smoking a cigarette… who shockingly accuses the scientist and her colleagues of being responsible for it The Walking Dead epidemic.
The post-credits scene scientist says she’s hoping the remnants of those teams can still end the world’s plight. The man holding a gun behind his back replies, “End this?” You started … all the teams. Someone has scrawled “The Dead Are Born Here” in big letters on the wall. Before her death, the scientist told her killer, “They weren’t there when it happened… when you did what you did. So, while the biologists are accused by the French, the latter is accused by the biologists.
If we put everything together, this proves that the zombie contagion of The Walking Dead was created by the Primrose and Violet teams in this French biomedical center. But maybe the group of French people broke into the lab in an attempt to stop the experiments, and accidentally released a deadly human-made virus into the population, kicking off The Walking Dead as that we know him.
The Situation Around The World
The scene post-credits of season 2 of The World Beyond gives the best insight to date in the global landscape of The Walking Dead. First of all, the French executive proves that Elizabeth was right: the virus has spread throughout the world.
The post-credits scene from Walking Dead: World Beyond also implies that France is not solely responsible for the zombie apocalypse. When asked where the Primrose team is, the scientist reveals that they were in Toledo, Ohio, “when it happened.” These comments could indicate that the virus was the result of collaboration between several countries.
Faster Zombies
Having debunked the beginnings of the virus Zombie The Walking Dead, the post-credits scene of Season 2 of World Beyond shows the next evolution of the zombies: faster and smarter. The French survivor shoots Team scientist Violet, then quickly leaves as her corpse is still sprawled on the desk.
The zombified scientist gets up and runs straight for the exit door, pounding wildly. Fast zombies have officially entered The Walking Dead. The post-credits scene from The Walking Dead: World Beyond suggests that these traits are not a natural evolution of the virus, but an accidental mutation triggered by the experiences of the French team.
In trying to stop the virus, the scientists who made it inadvertently gave zombies intelligence and the ability to run. While this cannot be linked to the French experiences as Morgan’s wife was one of those smarter variants, scientists may have permanently activated what made the zombies in Season 1 of The Walking Dead smart.
