David flips all the switches on and off over and over again causing even more zombies to surround the Winchester. He starts to walk back towards the main bar area and zombie Bernie almost grabs him. Ed tosses Shaun the Winchester rifle over the bar and Shaun uses it to push John into the jukebox. Ed tells Shaun he should have shot John and as Shaun pulls the trigger to show Ed the weapon no longer works, he fires a round.
