A few details of the new Walking Dead spinoff have already leaked; namely, we know the series will (maybe) be named Cobalt, and that Cliff Curtis and Kim Dickens will star. Now, though, perhaps the biggest piece of information yet has been made public: a script.

The excerpts may have been removed from the website, but in a way that only confirms the script’s legitimacy. In it, we learn that the series takes place well before the present Walking Dead timeline. It begins with the ill-fated C.D.C. trying to convince people that all is well, and that there’s no zombie issue whatsoever. Whoops.

Series creator Robert Kirkman had previously indicated to EW that the show would take place in Los Angeles and would be about family, yet would also include “all kinds of crazy stuff.” This sounds like a promising start.
