At the beginning of 2013, Former United Nations investigator Gerry Lane, his wife, Karin, and their two daughters, Rachel and Connie, are stuck in Philadelphia traffic wh the city is overrun by zombies; Gerry discovers that it takes 12 seconds for a bitt person to turn into an infected zombie. The family escapes to Newark and take refuge with a couple and their young son, Tommy. They are rescued by a helicopter st by UN Deputy Secretary-Geral Thierry Umutoni, and they bring Tommy with them after his parts are infected. The group is brought to a US Navy vessel in the Atlantic Ocean, where scitists and military personnel are analyzing the outbreak. Andrew Fassbach, a virologist, insists the plague is a virus and the developmt of a vaccine depds on finding its origin. Gerry, after his family is threated with eviction from the safety of the vessel, agrees to help Fassbach.
Gerry, Fassbach, and a Navy SEAL escort fly to Camp Humphreys in South Korea on a C-130 Hercules (there is a notable continuity error in the movie which repeatedly switches betwe an Antonov An-12 and a Lockheed C-130 Hercules
) where the first report of zombies occurred. They are attacked by zombies upon landing, causing Fassbach to panic and accidtally kill himself with his own gun. US soldiers at the camp rescue the team, and Gerry learns the infection was introduced to the base by its doctor. There, an imprisoned CIA officer directs Gerry to Israel, where the Mossad learned about the virus before the outbreak and managed to build a safe zone. Only Gerry and the pilot escape wh their plane is attacked by zombies during take-off from the base.
That Moment In World War Z (2013): A Madman In Korea Has A Theory
In Jerusalem, Gerry meets Jurg Warmbrunn, a high-ranking Mossad official, who explains that they intercepted communications from Indian troops fighting against zombies. The country managed to quarantine itself by building a large wall, and allows refugees to ter the city. However, loud celebratory singing from the refugees attracts zombies from outside and the zombies manage to climb up and breach the wall. As the city is quickly overrun, Warmbrunn orders Israeli soldiers to escort Gerry back to his plane; during the chaos, Gerry notices zombies bypassing an old man and an emaciated boy who had got down to the ground, and stayed still. Wh one of the escorts, Seg, is bitt on her hand, Gerry amputates the appdage, prevting further infection, and the pair escape aboard a commercial airliner.
Gerry calls Thierry and has him divert the plane to a World Health Organization medical research facility in Cardiff. A stowaway zombie is discovered, and people aboard are quickly infected. Gerry sets off a grade to rupture the cabin and ejects the zombies, but the grade explosion results in the plane crash landing.
Gerry and Seg survive the crash, though Gerry is trapped in his seat and has be injured. Seg appears and assist Gerry. They head to the Cardiff facility, where Gerry faints from his injuries before awaking three days later after receiving medical treatmt from the WHO staff, who are initially very hostile. He explains his theory to the WHO scitists – that the zombies bypass terminally ill or injured people, as they are unsuitable hosts for infection. He suggests injecting healthy people with a curable pathog as camouflage against the zombies. However, the scitists' pathog samples are located in a zombie-infested portion of the WHO facility. Gerry, Seg, and the head doctor battle their way through the lab. Before Gerry can leave, a lone zombie blocks his way, forcing him to inject himself to test his theory. Wh Gerry ops the door, his theory is prov correct; the zombie bypasses him, allowing him to safely walk past the rest of the zombies with the pathog samples in hand.

Gerry and Seg arrive at a safe zone in Freeport, Nova Scotia, where he is reunited with his family. A vaccine is quickly developed that acts as a camouflage against the zombies, allowing civilians to safely escape infested areas and military forces to battle the zombies more effectively.
