Synopsis[]
Janey Belle goes to sleep in someone's grave in a cemetery and has dreams of the time when she was a high school student, before becoming a zombie.
The following day, she awakens and decides that she needs a long bath. She breaks into the home of a drug dealer named Walt and takes a bath. Walt comes home and Janey makes a quick exit. The bathtub is what Walt uses to cook his drugs, but it is now filled with Janey's zombie detritus. Walt's partner, Dizz Johnson, comes over, and not knowing any better, takes a sample of the tub water particles and smokes it. Walt tries to warn him, but it is too late. Dizz is elated, and tells Walt that whatever he cooked up produced an instant high. They decide to sell this designer zombie drug to their employer, Ortega. Walt tells him that he calls it Bath Salts 2.0.
Twenty-eight days later, Dizz Johnson's continued use of Bath Salts 2.0 takes its toll. He becomes a crazed flesh-eating monster who attacks a man on the Tamahawk Bridge. News crews film this bizarre spectacle and it is broadcast live across all networks.
Janey Belle meanwhile, continues to make her way across the city. She breaks into the house of some other unsuspecting resident and beheads the homeowner. She then notices a baby lying in a crib, which she takes a liking to. She picks up the child and then takes note of the television, which is broadcasting the Tamahawk Bridge incident.
Walt on the other hand, finds himself running dry on B.S.2, but he finds a small volume of Janey's sloughed remains at the bottom of the tub. He whips up a new batch and samples the product, but immediately has a violent reaction. He transforms into a hulking creature who then uses up the remainder of the drugs. This allows Walt to catch Janey's scent, and he now decides that he must find her.
Meanwhile at the Comic Planet comic book store - somebody else takes an interest of the episode being displayed on the news. This is Katie Carva, also known as Vampblade.
