Small Easter Eggs
As the clock turns,

 * Samantha Maxis will continously narrate the map.
 * Finding all teddy bears will play a narrative sung by the Demonic Announcer:

Whilst the world burns,

Father and son clash,

The undead begin to slash,

This is where it began,

And this is where it will end.

Main Easter Egg 'Like Father, Like Son'

 * Samantha Maxis ask you  activate 4 control panels scattered throughout the map. Once activated, she will then ask you to find a key card and open a locked steel door near the edge of the map. Doing this will allow you access to the Launch Room, where you must 4 green targets, causing the room to lock. Once the room is locked, you must face and survive a wave of zombies. Once completing the wave, shutters will open, allowing you to watch a Group 935 shuttle take off, and coincidently, explode mid-air.
 * Once doing this, the radio will fuzzle and crackle, with Richtofen shouting angrily 'The MDP is destroyed, f**k this, it's time!' Though off screen, Richtofen injects himself with a liquidized version of Element 115, allowing him control of his 'Zombiefied' body. After this, you must attack and kill Richtofen, thus ending the storyline of 'Generations'. Samantha will say calmy in joy 'You have saved us. You have saved us all.'
