28 Years Later

At a village celebration, Spike discovers Jamie's affair with Rosie, the village schoolteacher. He returns home to find Sam caring for Isla. Sam suggests that the fire may have been lit by Dr Kelson, a former [[General practitioner|GP]]. The next morning, Spike asks Jamie if Kelson could cure Isla, angering Jamie as the villagers fear Kelson, who was seen burning corpses in an apparently ritualistic manner. Spike suspects Jamie wants Isla to die, and secretly leaves with her. They rest in a ruined church, where Isla saves Spike by killing an infected in a dissociative state.

Swedish soldier Erik Sundqvist and his unit are forced ashore after their patrol boat sinks. Erik, the sole survivor, escapes an attack by an infected pack and rescues Spike and Isla from another. They search for Kelson, only to find a pregnant infected woman, as Isla helps give birth to an uninfected infant. Erik kills the mother and threatens to kill the potentially-infected baby, but the Alpha father attacks and decapitates him. Kelson appears and subdues the Alpha, who he has named [[Samson]], with a morphine dart, and leads the group to a skull pyramid he calls a "[[memento mori]]".

After examining Isla, Kelson deduces she has terminal cancer. At her request, he incapacitates Spike and euthanises her. He cremates her body and preserves her skull for his pyramid (as he was doing with the bodies Jamie saw him burning). Kelson gives Isla's skull to Spike, who climbs to the top of the pyramid and places it at the pinnacle. After Samson infiltrates the clearing, Spike and Kelson are able to subdue it, and Kelson encourages Spike to go home with the infant, telling him, ''memento amoris''. Spike returns to Lindisfarne and leaves the uninfected female infant, whom he has named Isla, at the village gate with a note for Jamie, explaining her origins and stating that he will return when he is ready. Jamie, realising Spike is alone on the mainland, tries to follow him, but is blocked by the rising tide.
