1
00:00:00,046 --> 00:00:02,457
These communities are perfect
for what we're envisioning.
2
00:00:02,460 --> 00:00:04,280
Previously on "The Walking Dead"...
3
00:00:04,282 --> 00:00:06,723
Alexandria was a self-sustaining
4
00:00:06,726 --> 00:00:08,117
ecological community.
5
00:00:08,120 --> 00:00:10,240
We got the plans from the
leader of an allied community,
6
00:00:10,242 --> 00:00:11,287
Maggie Rhee.
7
00:00:11,289 --> 00:00:14,310
- Why do you trust these people?
- Who says we do?
8
00:00:14,313 --> 00:00:16,574
It's good to see Alexandria
getting cleaned up, though.
9
00:00:16,576 --> 00:00:19,446
You sure don't want to come with us?
10
00:00:19,448 --> 00:00:21,864
- Lance, are we good?
- Everything's fine.
11
00:00:21,867 --> 00:00:23,146
Pamela's on board.
12
00:00:23,148 --> 00:00:25,148
In fact, we're gonna
bring even more people in.
13
00:00:25,150 --> 00:00:27,570
We are going to remake the world.
14
00:00:59,598 --> 00:01:00,945
What are we at?
15
00:01:00,947 --> 00:01:02,294
Eight to nine.
16
00:01:02,296 --> 00:01:03,774
So...
17
00:01:03,776 --> 00:01:05,558
still winning.
18
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,519
For about 10 more seconds.
19
00:01:11,653 --> 00:01:13,914
You, too?
20
00:01:13,916 --> 00:01:15,307
Yeah.
21
00:01:15,309 --> 00:01:16,961
I just talked to Maggie.
22
00:01:16,963 --> 00:01:18,484
What'd she say?
23
00:01:18,486 --> 00:01:19,833
Not much.
24
00:01:19,835 --> 00:01:22,140
Just gave me this.
25
00:01:22,143 --> 00:01:24,621
Directions to the nearest
Commonwealth checkpoint.
26
00:01:24,623 --> 00:01:27,189
Troopers left them in case
people changed their minds.
27
00:01:27,191 --> 00:01:29,408
Yeah. A lot of people are.
28
00:01:29,410 --> 00:01:30,977
Yeah...
29
00:01:33,197 --> 00:01:34,587
You'll be back, though.
30
00:01:34,589 --> 00:01:35,893
Right?
31
00:01:35,895 --> 00:01:37,766
Yeah, I think so.
32
00:01:44,208 --> 00:01:45,818
Okay.
33
00:01:51,476 --> 00:01:52,779
Hey!
34
00:01:52,781 --> 00:01:55,869
Shoot your shot!
35
00:01:55,871 --> 00:01:57,438
You need an escort?
36
00:02:00,876 --> 00:02:03,181
Why?
37
00:02:03,183 --> 00:02:05,009
It's a long walk, you know?
38
00:02:05,011 --> 00:02:07,579
Might get bored. That's all.
39
00:02:09,972 --> 00:02:11,755
Um...
40
00:02:16,544 --> 00:02:19,328
We got a rider coming!
41
00:02:19,330 --> 00:02:21,373
Who is it?
42
00:02:25,336 --> 00:02:27,988
Nobody we know.
43
00:02:27,990 --> 00:02:30,601
Hold where you are!
44
00:02:30,604 --> 00:02:32,993
Hold, or we will shoot!
45
00:02:58,456 --> 00:03:00,020
He's been shot! Get help!
46
00:03:01,937 --> 00:03:03,937
Devils...
47
00:03:03,939 --> 00:03:05,330
They're slaughtering them.
48
00:03:08,379 --> 00:03:10,248
Liars...
49
00:03:18,171 --> 00:03:21,738
You've got to go...
50
00:03:21,740 --> 00:03:24,915
Yes.
51
00:04:16,245 --> 00:04:23,664
- Synced and corrected by VitoSilans -
-- www.Addic7ed.com --
52
00:04:30,087 --> 00:04:32,087
We're not going.
53
00:04:32,090 --> 00:04:34,593
Maggie, he died begging for our help.
54
00:04:34,595 --> 00:04:35,986
I understand it.
55
00:04:35,988 --> 00:04:38,728
But we're barely holding on as it is.
56
00:04:38,730 --> 00:04:40,469
Someone we know must've sent him.
57
00:04:40,471 --> 00:04:42,348
Could be from the
Commonwealth, or Georgie...
58
00:04:42,351 --> 00:04:43,907
Or it could be a trap.
59
00:04:43,909 --> 00:04:46,475
We go to help and leave
the Hilltop open to attack.
60
00:04:46,477 --> 00:04:48,607
I don't think it's a trick.
61
00:04:48,609 --> 00:04:50,217
He was scared. He wasn't lying.
62
00:04:50,219 --> 00:04:51,476
Even if he wasn't,
63
00:04:51,479 --> 00:04:53,218
we can't go up against another group
64
00:04:53,221 --> 00:04:54,707
without the people to fight them.
65
00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:56,136
We don't have that.
66
00:04:56,138 --> 00:04:58,704
What happened to taking
in whoever was in need?
67
00:04:58,706 --> 00:05:00,706
Being outnumbered has
never stopped you before.
68
00:05:00,708 --> 00:05:02,969
Maybe it should have.
69
00:05:06,323 --> 00:05:09,367
We're barely holding on.
70
00:05:09,369 --> 00:05:13,153
It sounds like these people are, too.
71
00:05:13,155 --> 00:05:15,286
That's exactly who my
mother would've targeted,
72
00:05:15,288 --> 00:05:16,548
and I helped.
73
00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:18,724
I'm not letting it
happen to someone else.
74
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:22,815
So you're not leaving.
75
00:05:22,817 --> 00:05:24,153
I am.
76
00:05:24,156 --> 00:05:25,427
I'm just...
77
00:05:25,429 --> 00:05:27,385
I have to help these people first.
78
00:05:59,985 --> 00:06:01,854
You take over at the halfway mark.
79
00:06:06,165 --> 00:06:07,469
Mom!
80
00:06:07,471 --> 00:06:10,994
Mom!
81
00:06:10,996 --> 00:06:14,214
How long this time?
82
00:06:14,216 --> 00:06:15,999
What do I always tell you?
83
00:06:16,001 --> 00:06:18,023
- As long as it takes.
- That's right.
84
00:06:18,026 --> 00:06:20,612
You're gonna hold down
the fort while I'm gone?
85
00:06:32,017 --> 00:06:34,539
Keep a perimeter, stay on alert.
86
00:06:34,541 --> 00:06:37,237
- You got it. Good luck.
- Thank you.
87
00:06:39,241 --> 00:06:41,633
Could you get that for me?
88
00:06:49,295 --> 00:06:51,817
Why don't you want their help?
89
00:06:51,819 --> 00:06:54,300
The Commonwealth's.
90
00:06:57,259 --> 00:07:00,217
Because we can get by without it.
91
00:07:00,219 --> 00:07:02,387
Why do we have to just "get by"?
92
00:07:02,390 --> 00:07:05,527
It's only temporary.
93
00:07:05,529 --> 00:07:07,531
What's easier isn't always better.
94
00:07:19,456 --> 00:07:20,977
You know, before the Fall,
95
00:07:20,979 --> 00:07:23,849
I lived on a farm with
my family and my dad.
96
00:07:23,851 --> 00:07:25,906
One day, these corporate farm developers
97
00:07:25,909 --> 00:07:27,212
started knocking on our door,
98
00:07:27,215 --> 00:07:29,390
trying to buy us out.
99
00:07:29,393 --> 00:07:31,654
My dad kept saying no.
100
00:07:31,657 --> 00:07:34,179
Then, one day, this bad drought hit.
101
00:07:34,182 --> 00:07:36,734
The developers started knocking again,
102
00:07:36,737 --> 00:07:38,690
except this time, they
offered three times
103
00:07:38,692 --> 00:07:40,126
what the farm was worth.
104
00:07:40,128 --> 00:07:42,302
They knew we were in debt and desperate.
105
00:07:42,304 --> 00:07:45,523
But they also knew the drought would end
106
00:07:45,525 --> 00:07:48,047
and the farm would
become profitable again,
107
00:07:48,049 --> 00:07:50,354
and all they had to do was outlast us.
108
00:07:50,356 --> 00:07:53,075
They started dropping off
crates of food to "help"
109
00:07:53,078 --> 00:07:54,619
with the livestock.
110
00:07:54,621 --> 00:07:57,143
And he would just let it sit
there on the porch and rot
111
00:07:57,145 --> 00:07:59,325
so they'd see it when
the next shipment came.
112
00:07:59,328 --> 00:08:01,800
He said that we were being tested.
113
00:08:01,802 --> 00:08:03,062
And guess what happened.
114
00:08:03,064 --> 00:08:05,587
The drought ended.
115
00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:08,154
We got back on our feet.
116
00:08:08,156 --> 00:08:11,682
And those developers
never bothered us again.
117
00:08:13,771 --> 00:08:15,771
Why'd your dad let the food rot?
118
00:08:15,773 --> 00:08:17,120
If they'd seen us take it,
119
00:08:17,122 --> 00:08:19,122
they would've known we needed them
120
00:08:19,124 --> 00:08:20,602
and never left us alone.
121
00:08:20,604 --> 00:08:22,908
But the cattle were hungry.
122
00:08:22,910 --> 00:08:24,649
We didn't lose any.
123
00:08:24,651 --> 00:08:28,305
We stuck together,
and we made it through.
124
00:08:28,308 --> 00:08:30,397
Yeah, you "got by."
125
00:08:33,921 --> 00:08:36,078
It's just...
126
00:08:36,081 --> 00:08:38,211
"Getting by" is what
I've been forced to do
127
00:08:38,214 --> 00:08:39,648
my whole life.
128
00:08:39,651 --> 00:08:43,232
I was told that it makes
you stronger and wiser.
129
00:08:43,235 --> 00:08:45,278
But it doesn't.
130
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,215
It hurts.
131
00:08:47,218 --> 00:08:49,587
What would you have done?
132
00:08:51,983 --> 00:08:54,679
Asked everyone what they wanted
133
00:08:54,681 --> 00:08:57,290
instead of deciding for them.
134
00:08:57,292 --> 00:08:58,944
Is that what I'm doing?
135
00:08:58,946 --> 00:09:01,164
You think The Commonwealth knows better?
136
00:09:01,166 --> 00:09:02,600
Is that crazy to think?
137
00:09:02,602 --> 00:09:04,167
Yes.
138
00:09:04,169 --> 00:09:07,387
Those people have not
been tested for 10 years.
139
00:09:07,389 --> 00:09:09,607
Do you wanna be there when they are?
140
00:09:15,789 --> 00:09:18,181
I just...
141
00:09:18,183 --> 00:09:20,618
want things to be the same every day.
142
00:09:32,023 --> 00:09:33,718
Do you agree?
143
00:09:37,506 --> 00:09:41,247
With most of it, yeah.
144
00:09:41,249 --> 00:09:44,642
Whoa! Look out!
145
00:10:07,885 --> 00:10:10,276
Knife slashed right
through the neck guard.
146
00:10:15,026 --> 00:10:16,674
Shot between the armor gaps.
147
00:10:16,676 --> 00:10:18,676
Hey!
148
00:10:23,510 --> 00:10:25,857
Maggie!
149
00:10:30,908 --> 00:10:32,703
It's Aaron.
150
00:10:37,095 --> 00:10:40,803
_
151
00:10:45,487 --> 00:10:47,879
But not only is it borne of hate,
152
00:10:47,881 --> 00:10:52,884
but from love and from
friendship, and from fear.
153
00:10:52,886 --> 00:10:57,236
And in Luke 15:12, Christ speaks
of a rich father's wayward son
154
00:10:57,238 --> 00:11:00,065
that selfishly set off to distant lands,
155
00:11:00,067 --> 00:11:05,333
who squandered his riches
on decadence and wild living.
156
00:11:08,075 --> 00:11:10,687
And then, the son found his soul empty.
157
00:11:12,079 --> 00:11:14,166
And he was in need.
158
00:11:14,168 --> 00:11:17,909
And he went back to his father
and begged for forgiveness.
159
00:11:17,911 --> 00:11:20,259
And his father embraced him,
160
00:11:20,261 --> 00:11:24,350
for his son "was dead, and is now alive.
161
00:11:24,352 --> 00:11:27,353
He was lost, and now is found."
162
00:11:27,355 --> 00:11:31,880
Now, there were a lot of stunned faces
163
00:11:31,882 --> 00:11:34,360
when I asked all of you
to sit by a stranger today,
164
00:11:34,362 --> 00:11:36,004
and I'm still seeing
a lot of awkwardness
165
00:11:36,007 --> 00:11:37,189
with the arrangement.
166
00:11:37,191 --> 00:11:41,585
A lot of stiff backs,
clenched butt cheeks.
167
00:11:44,938 --> 00:11:46,938
Why?
168
00:11:46,940 --> 00:11:49,898
Those of you that were
out there in the wasteland,
169
00:11:49,900 --> 00:11:51,551
you know from the people you found,
170
00:11:51,553 --> 00:11:53,510
from the ones you could rely upon,
171
00:11:53,512 --> 00:11:56,106
that it didn't matter that
you were strangers beforehand,
172
00:11:56,109 --> 00:11:57,688
did it?
173
00:11:57,690 --> 00:12:00,560
You were forced to see
the humanity in each other,
174
00:12:00,562 --> 00:12:02,156
and though not bound by blood,
175
00:12:02,159 --> 00:12:08,264
these strangers became more
than friends, they became family.
176
00:12:08,266 --> 00:12:11,746
Why is it that way out there...
177
00:12:11,748 --> 00:12:14,618
but not that way in here?
178
00:12:15,839 --> 00:12:17,926
Romans 3:23...
179
00:12:17,928 --> 00:12:21,625
"For all have sinned and fall
short of the glory of God."
180
00:12:21,627 --> 00:12:25,803
Now let me repeat that...
"All of us have sinned."
181
00:12:25,805 --> 00:12:28,980
And that is the very thread
that binds us together.
182
00:12:28,982 --> 00:12:31,983
And if you strip yourselves
of the superficial labels...
183
00:12:31,985 --> 00:12:38,424
What do we do, where do I live,
how much money do I have...
184
00:12:38,426 --> 00:12:39,948
If you strip yourselves of that,
185
00:12:39,950 --> 00:12:42,234
it will make you see
the person by your side
186
00:12:42,237 --> 00:12:44,909
as you see yourself in the mirror.
187
00:12:44,911 --> 00:12:48,304
And the way we were
before the world fell
188
00:12:48,306 --> 00:12:51,568
cannot be the way we are moving forward.
189
00:12:51,570 --> 00:12:54,092
We must always remember the thread,
190
00:12:54,094 --> 00:12:56,660
for that is what makes us try,
191
00:12:56,662 --> 00:13:01,230
it makes us forgive, it
makes us return from peril.
192
00:13:01,232 --> 00:13:04,189
It makes us...
193
00:13:04,191 --> 00:13:06,148
us.
194
00:13:08,369 --> 00:13:10,856
Sounds like you're
blowing smoke up my ass.
195
00:13:10,859 --> 00:13:12,197
No, you were great.
196
00:13:12,199 --> 00:13:14,069
I... I was expecting
197
00:13:14,071 --> 00:13:16,462
a little more fire and brimstone,
198
00:13:16,464 --> 00:13:18,856
I guess.
199
00:13:18,858 --> 00:13:21,032
You look happy.
200
00:13:21,034 --> 00:13:23,252
I think I might be.
201
00:13:23,254 --> 00:13:25,428
So all that up there, that was...
202
00:13:25,430 --> 00:13:27,822
No, it's, uh... it's not an act.
203
00:13:27,824 --> 00:13:29,606
I mean, in the beginning,
204
00:13:29,608 --> 00:13:31,390
I was just going through the motions,
205
00:13:31,392 --> 00:13:33,684
but then, one day, I just wasn't.
206
00:13:33,687 --> 00:13:37,353
It was like a switch was flipped,
207
00:13:37,355 --> 00:13:40,225
and I could hear Him again.
208
00:13:40,227 --> 00:13:42,488
Yeah.
209
00:13:42,490 --> 00:13:44,356
That hell we went through,
210
00:13:44,359 --> 00:13:48,233
it almost feels like it wasn't real.
211
00:13:48,235 --> 00:13:50,847
Like it was just a
nightmare or something.
212
00:13:54,459 --> 00:13:56,763
What about Alexandria?
213
00:13:56,765 --> 00:13:59,810
Oh, Commonwealth's
pouring even more manpower
214
00:13:59,812 --> 00:14:01,768
and resources into the rebuild.
215
00:14:01,770 --> 00:14:05,860
But, uh, while that's
getting finished up,
216
00:14:05,862 --> 00:14:08,688
they've asked me to, uh, help out
217
00:14:08,690 --> 00:14:12,431
with their new immigration initiative.
218
00:14:12,433 --> 00:14:15,478
They didn't seem too keen on
immigrants when we came in.
219
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,741
They weren't.
220
00:14:17,743 --> 00:14:19,177
And after they heard that I worked
221
00:14:19,179 --> 00:14:20,657
for an NGO back in the day,
222
00:14:20,659 --> 00:14:23,486
they asked me to review
their intake policies.
223
00:14:23,488 --> 00:14:24,922
Now we're reaching out
224
00:14:24,924 --> 00:14:26,532
and bringing in people that need help.
225
00:14:26,534 --> 00:14:27,969
The Lord's work.
226
00:14:27,971 --> 00:14:31,102
Yeah.
227
00:14:31,104 --> 00:14:34,105
Actually, that's, um...
228
00:14:34,107 --> 00:14:36,499
That's why I'm here.
229
00:14:36,501 --> 00:14:39,154
There's a group of about 40 people
230
00:14:39,156 --> 00:14:40,503
holed up in an apartment complex
231
00:14:40,505 --> 00:14:42,592
on the western border of Virginia.
232
00:14:42,594 --> 00:14:44,115
We want to make first contact
233
00:14:44,117 --> 00:14:45,987
and offer them help.
234
00:14:45,989 --> 00:14:48,946
Some of the folks upstairs, um...
235
00:14:48,948 --> 00:14:51,557
they thought it'd be a
good idea if you tag along.
236
00:14:51,559 --> 00:14:53,472
Why me?
237
00:14:53,474 --> 00:14:55,561
It's a...
238
00:14:55,563 --> 00:14:58,782
religious group, so...
239
00:14:58,784 --> 00:15:00,566
Any hostiles in the territory?
240
00:15:00,568 --> 00:15:02,307
We'll have troops with us, just in case.
241
00:15:02,309 --> 00:15:04,325
Also, my boss, Carlson, will be with us.
242
00:15:04,328 --> 00:15:06,007
He's a little, um...
243
00:15:06,009 --> 00:15:07,530
Well, you'll see, but...
244
00:15:07,532 --> 00:15:08,923
his heart's in the right place.
245
00:15:08,925 --> 00:15:11,534
Uh, sorry to interrupt, uh...
246
00:15:11,536 --> 00:15:13,144
Carlson's ready when you are.
247
00:15:13,146 --> 00:15:15,146
Oh. Thank you, Jesse.
248
00:15:17,585 --> 00:15:20,325
New kid. We're training him.
249
00:15:23,287 --> 00:15:25,940
What do you say?
250
00:15:25,942 --> 00:15:28,029
What do you know about these people?
251
00:15:28,031 --> 00:15:29,987
According to the scouts, they're, uh,
252
00:15:29,989 --> 00:15:32,120
just a friendly group of settlers.
253
00:15:39,781 --> 00:15:42,347
God, do you feel that?
254
00:15:42,349 --> 00:15:44,784
That rush?
255
00:15:44,786 --> 00:15:47,787
That mix of dopamine
and adrenaline, just...
256
00:15:53,404 --> 00:15:56,709
It's just, that anticipation...
257
00:15:56,711 --> 00:15:59,669
We're gonna change lives.
258
00:15:59,671 --> 00:16:01,453
You.
259
00:16:01,455 --> 00:16:02,802
And you.
260
00:16:02,804 --> 00:16:04,935
And even you, too, Jesse.
261
00:16:04,937 --> 00:16:07,242
Today, we're gonna make the world
262
00:16:07,244 --> 00:16:09,548
just a little bit better
than it was yesterday.
263
00:16:09,550 --> 00:16:12,595
I thought you said these
were "friendly settlers."
264
00:16:12,597 --> 00:16:15,685
That doesn't look friendly.
265
00:16:15,687 --> 00:16:17,295
You don't think so?
266
00:16:17,297 --> 00:16:18,993
No.
267
00:16:18,995 --> 00:16:20,211
Okay.
268
00:16:20,213 --> 00:16:21,691
What if they aren't?
269
00:16:21,693 --> 00:16:23,214
Hmm?
270
00:16:23,216 --> 00:16:24,433
If they're angry,
271
00:16:24,435 --> 00:16:26,261
that just means they're afraid.
272
00:16:26,263 --> 00:16:30,221
When they meet you, they won't be.
273
00:16:30,223 --> 00:16:32,625
Man, I cannot wait
274
00:16:32,628 --> 00:16:34,630
to watch you two do your thing.
275
00:16:39,798 --> 00:16:42,146
Is he going in with us?
276
00:16:42,148 --> 00:16:44,105
He usually does, yeah.
277
00:16:44,107 --> 00:16:46,063
But he's not gonna
do any of the talking.
278
00:16:46,065 --> 00:16:47,717
And we'll have backup nearby.
279
00:16:47,719 --> 00:16:49,460
You sure?
280
00:16:51,418 --> 00:16:52,983
Hey!
281
00:16:52,985 --> 00:16:54,637
Are they setting up camp?
282
00:16:54,639 --> 00:16:55,899
That they are.
283
00:16:55,901 --> 00:16:57,857
So they're not coming with us?
284
00:16:57,859 --> 00:17:00,382
Well...
285
00:17:00,384 --> 00:17:02,558
better not spook the natives.
286
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,255
But don't worry.
287
00:17:04,257 --> 00:17:07,650
They're just a chirp away.
288
00:17:07,652 --> 00:17:10,870
Sergeant Crowe, do you copy?
289
00:17:10,872 --> 00:17:13,612
Over.
290
00:17:13,614 --> 00:17:15,136
Copy, sir.
291
00:17:15,138 --> 00:17:16,702
Over.
292
00:17:16,704 --> 00:17:18,139
You see?
293
00:17:18,141 --> 00:17:21,490
It's all good!
294
00:17:21,492 --> 00:17:23,753
Yeah, I'm not doing this.
295
00:17:23,755 --> 00:17:25,885
Places like that
usually have some old man
296
00:17:25,887 --> 00:17:28,105
with a shotgun inside
just looking for an excuse
297
00:17:28,107 --> 00:17:31,456
to kill some dumbass who
stepped on his front lawn.
298
00:17:31,458 --> 00:17:33,997
Practically screams "do not disturb."
299
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,243
Yeah.
300
00:17:35,245 --> 00:17:36,390
I agree.
301
00:17:36,393 --> 00:17:38,723
Hey! Is everything alright?
302
00:17:38,726 --> 00:17:41,379
We're not so sure about this.
303
00:17:41,381 --> 00:17:43,381
Might be better to leave them alone.
304
00:17:43,383 --> 00:17:45,383
Abort?
305
00:17:45,385 --> 00:17:47,951
Just because of some pre-game jitters?
306
00:17:47,953 --> 00:17:50,156
No, because your plan is shit,
307
00:17:50,159 --> 00:17:51,332
and I don't want to die.
308
00:17:51,335 --> 00:17:53,130
That's all.
309
00:17:53,132 --> 00:17:54,958
I've done it before.
310
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,916
We'll do it again.
311
00:17:56,918 --> 00:17:59,225
What's the largest group you've found?
312
00:18:01,491 --> 00:18:02,731
Four.
313
00:18:02,734 --> 00:18:04,663
And there are 40 in there?
314
00:18:04,665 --> 00:18:06,361
So?
315
00:18:06,363 --> 00:18:08,754
So, with that many people,
316
00:18:08,756 --> 00:18:10,930
all it takes is one nervous guy
317
00:18:10,932 --> 00:18:13,498
with an itchy trigger
finger to set things off.
318
00:18:13,500 --> 00:18:15,935
- I don't think you appreciate...
- No, no, no, hold on.
319
00:18:15,937 --> 00:18:18,817
He's right. Alright, we've never
dealt with it, it's game over.
320
00:18:18,820 --> 00:18:23,508
Guys, it's not up for discussion.
321
00:18:23,510 --> 00:18:26,337
I need you to trust that
I know what I'm doing.
322
00:18:26,339 --> 00:18:28,122
So, let's go.
323
00:18:30,213 --> 00:18:33,779
Fine.
324
00:18:33,781 --> 00:18:37,043
Hey, I need you to wear that.
325
00:18:37,046 --> 00:18:38,784
It's part of your, um...
326
00:18:38,786 --> 00:18:40,786
costume.
327
00:18:44,009 --> 00:18:46,187
This is how this is going to go.
328
00:18:58,980 --> 00:19:01,546
Hello!
329
00:19:01,548 --> 00:19:04,462
My name is Aaron!
330
00:19:04,464 --> 00:19:07,291
We come from a community
called The Commonwealth.
331
00:19:07,293 --> 00:19:09,554
We'd like to extend our friendship.
332
00:19:16,389 --> 00:19:19,303
Our people...
333
00:19:19,305 --> 00:19:23,568
left these where you would find them.
334
00:19:23,570 --> 00:19:26,832
Since they're all gone,
I'm assuming you did.
335
00:19:26,834 --> 00:19:30,227
The chicken's a little rubbery, but...
336
00:19:30,229 --> 00:19:32,664
it does the job.
337
00:19:32,666 --> 00:19:35,711
We have more back at
our camp, if you'd like.
338
00:19:35,713 --> 00:19:37,800
Is there anyone I could speak with?
339
00:19:37,802 --> 00:19:39,584
Face-to-face?
340
00:20:07,397 --> 00:20:09,266
Weapons.
341
00:20:40,125 --> 00:20:42,299
Oh. Uh...
342
00:20:42,301 --> 00:20:44,562
It's kind of a bitch to take off.
343
00:20:49,526 --> 00:20:51,917
Just the four of you?
344
00:20:51,919 --> 00:20:55,094
There's a group of peacekeepers nearby,
345
00:20:55,096 --> 00:20:57,358
waiting for us to check in.
346
00:20:57,360 --> 00:20:59,316
Sounds scary.
347
00:21:40,577 --> 00:21:42,968
Can't be too safe now, can we?
348
00:21:48,541 --> 00:21:50,889
Last door to the right.
349
00:21:50,891 --> 00:21:52,978
What's down there?
350
00:23:04,704 --> 00:23:06,269
Seats.
351
00:23:26,639 --> 00:23:28,509
I'm Aaron.
352
00:23:28,511 --> 00:23:30,249
And like I said outside,
353
00:23:30,251 --> 00:23:33,078
we come from a community
called the Commonwealth.
354
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,603
And it's, uh...
355
00:23:35,605 --> 00:23:38,649
Well, it's a bit like the old world.
356
00:23:38,651 --> 00:23:40,434
50,000 people live there.
357
00:23:40,436 --> 00:23:42,291
We have a functioning government,
358
00:23:42,294 --> 00:23:45,047
protective walls, housing for everyone,
359
00:23:45,049 --> 00:23:47,136
restaurants, two movie theaters...
360
00:23:47,138 --> 00:23:49,791
Soldiers?
361
00:23:49,793 --> 00:23:52,054
And churches, too, I take it.
362
00:23:52,056 --> 00:23:53,359
Eh, Father?
363
00:23:53,361 --> 00:23:55,536
Did you lose your collar?
364
00:23:55,538 --> 00:23:57,494
Wanted you to see who I was
365
00:23:57,496 --> 00:23:59,931
before learning what I was.
366
00:24:06,549 --> 00:24:09,550
Okay.
367
00:24:09,552 --> 00:24:13,684
Let's say this place is...
368
00:24:13,686 --> 00:24:15,294
like the old world,
369
00:24:15,296 --> 00:24:17,949
and they do have a church,
370
00:24:17,951 --> 00:24:20,169
then they have to have hookers, too.
371
00:24:21,477 --> 00:24:24,216
Right? And gambling?
372
00:24:24,218 --> 00:24:25,653
Shit side of town
373
00:24:25,655 --> 00:24:28,177
where addicts swap
needles with runaways.
374
00:24:30,529 --> 00:24:33,051
Got all that, too?
375
00:24:34,577 --> 00:24:36,707
I haven't seen any of that.
376
00:24:38,755 --> 00:24:41,190
Can I get my bag back?
377
00:24:41,192 --> 00:24:42,844
I'd like to show you something.
378
00:25:00,516 --> 00:25:02,341
Um...
379
00:25:10,526 --> 00:25:12,613
That's where we live.
380
00:25:12,615 --> 00:25:15,224
Whenever people see those photos,
381
00:25:15,226 --> 00:25:17,443
they want to live there, too.
382
00:25:17,445 --> 00:25:20,098
You'd just let us in?
383
00:25:20,100 --> 00:25:21,535
That easy?
384
00:25:21,537 --> 00:25:24,363
No, it's not easy at all, actually.
385
00:25:24,365 --> 00:25:26,931
Uh, there's a screening process...
386
00:25:26,933 --> 00:25:29,368
An audition.
387
00:25:29,370 --> 00:25:31,893
Well, let me get my tap-dancing shoes.
388
00:25:34,811 --> 00:25:38,334
Where is this, uh...
389
00:25:38,336 --> 00:25:40,292
Commonwealth located?
390
00:25:40,294 --> 00:25:41,946
He can't tell you that.
391
00:25:41,948 --> 00:25:43,644
Why?
392
00:25:43,646 --> 00:25:46,298
Because you say so?
393
00:25:46,300 --> 00:25:48,562
Yeah, that's right.
394
00:25:48,564 --> 00:25:50,955
Then why am I talking to him?
395
00:25:55,788 --> 00:25:59,398
Do me a favor, fellas.
396
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,662
Turn around and look
in that back corner.
397
00:26:13,110 --> 00:26:17,591
Those are raiders, murderers,
398
00:26:17,593 --> 00:26:22,508
rapists, and a few cannibals.
399
00:26:24,034 --> 00:26:27,731
All of them sat in the same seats
400
00:26:27,733 --> 00:26:30,908
you're sitting in right now.
401
00:26:30,910 --> 00:26:33,868
Most were wolves dressed as sheep.
402
00:26:33,870 --> 00:26:37,828
All of them meant my people harm.
403
00:26:37,830 --> 00:26:39,438
So...
404
00:26:42,487 --> 00:26:45,322
Mr. Head Wolf...
405
00:26:45,325 --> 00:26:46,705
if you know where I live
406
00:26:46,708 --> 00:26:48,882
and I don't know where you live,
407
00:26:48,885 --> 00:26:52,103
how dumb would that be
for me to let you go?
408
00:26:54,499 --> 00:26:56,455
What's your name?
409
00:26:58,895 --> 00:27:00,982
Toby Carlson.
410
00:27:00,984 --> 00:27:03,245
Toby...
411
00:27:03,247 --> 00:27:06,074
get on your goddamn knees!
412
00:27:06,076 --> 00:27:09,207
Asses stay in the goddamn chairs!
413
00:27:11,647 --> 00:27:14,256
Get on your goddamn knees!
414
00:27:14,258 --> 00:27:16,432
- Okay.
- Answer the question.
415
00:27:16,434 --> 00:27:20,038
How dumb would I be to let you go
416
00:27:20,041 --> 00:27:23,091
when you know where my home is?
417
00:27:23,093 --> 00:27:25,049
It would be d-dumb, okay?
418
00:27:25,051 --> 00:27:27,356
It'd be dumb.
419
00:27:27,358 --> 00:27:29,880
Yes, it would!
420
00:27:32,911 --> 00:27:36,104
You know...
421
00:27:36,106 --> 00:27:38,759
you remind me of ol' Billy Johnson.
422
00:27:40,284 --> 00:27:43,502
Billy came to us a few years ago,
423
00:27:43,504 --> 00:27:46,897
with promises of great
wealth and prosperity
424
00:27:46,899 --> 00:27:49,145
in a land far away.
425
00:27:49,148 --> 00:27:52,932
But Billy wasn't gonna bring
us to any promised land.
426
00:27:52,935 --> 00:27:56,850
Billy just wanted to
get us out in the open
427
00:27:56,853 --> 00:28:00,420
so his raiders could thoroughly kill us.
428
00:28:00,423 --> 00:28:03,642
Billy wound up on the shelf
429
00:28:03,645 --> 00:28:07,298
because he thought I was stupid.
430
00:28:07,301 --> 00:28:09,691
Do you think I'm stupid, too?
431
00:28:09,694 --> 00:28:11,824
N-No! No... no... no, I do not.
432
00:28:11,827 --> 00:28:14,446
Because I've got plenty
of room on the shelf
433
00:28:14,448 --> 00:28:15,752
right next to Billy!
434
00:28:15,754 --> 00:28:17,319
I-I don't want to be on the shelf!
435
00:28:17,321 --> 00:28:18,712
And I don't think you're stupid!
436
00:28:18,714 --> 00:28:20,106
Okay?!
437
00:28:20,109 --> 00:28:22,109
Tell me where your raiding party is,
438
00:28:22,112 --> 00:28:25,282
or I'm gonna start dropping
bodies on the floor...
439
00:28:25,285 --> 00:28:26,720
Starting with him!
440
00:28:26,722 --> 00:28:28,243
No!
441
00:28:28,245 --> 00:28:30,071
Hey!
442
00:28:30,073 --> 00:28:32,377
Do we look like raiders to you?
443
00:28:32,379 --> 00:28:37,034
Wolves dressed as sheep, speaking lies.
444
00:28:38,995 --> 00:28:41,395
None of you seem to have any idea
445
00:28:41,398 --> 00:28:43,998
what my responsibilities are
446
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,610
to this place and to my people.
447
00:28:47,612 --> 00:28:50,569
Has it occurred to any of you
448
00:28:50,571 --> 00:28:52,571
that they have entrusted me
449
00:28:52,573 --> 00:28:54,312
with their very souls?!
450
00:28:54,314 --> 00:28:56,271
Why did you come here?!
451
00:28:56,273 --> 00:28:57,576
What do you want?!
452
00:28:57,578 --> 00:28:58,926
Exactly!
453
00:28:58,928 --> 00:29:00,884
What do you have that we would want?
454
00:29:00,886 --> 00:29:03,800
This place is a shithole!
Why would we want it?!
455
00:29:03,802 --> 00:29:05,149
The meat.
456
00:29:05,151 --> 00:29:07,369
You want the meat.
457
00:29:07,371 --> 00:29:09,501
You think we're cannibals?
458
00:29:09,503 --> 00:29:12,940
Cannibals who came in
with prepackaged MREs?
459
00:29:12,942 --> 00:29:14,855
That's what you're going with?
460
00:29:14,857 --> 00:29:18,772
All we've done is given
you food and water.
461
00:29:18,774 --> 00:29:21,644
You aren't starving
right now because of us!
462
00:29:21,646 --> 00:29:24,038
Is that real? Or is that a lie?
463
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,430
You know what else is real?
464
00:29:25,432 --> 00:29:27,056
The soldiers in those photos.
465
00:29:27,059 --> 00:29:28,254
If we don't get back,
466
00:29:28,257 --> 00:29:29,695
they'll come in here
and kill all of you.
467
00:29:29,697 --> 00:29:32,655
Or nobody dies, okay?
468
00:29:32,657 --> 00:29:34,222
You save yourself
469
00:29:34,224 --> 00:29:36,485
and your people by letting us go,
470
00:29:36,487 --> 00:29:38,879
and we will never come back here again.
471
00:29:38,881 --> 00:29:40,881
We will never bother you.
472
00:29:40,883 --> 00:29:43,187
I promise that, okay?
473
00:29:47,715 --> 00:29:49,628
What a day.
474
00:29:51,415 --> 00:29:53,981
What a goddamn day.
475
00:29:53,983 --> 00:29:56,548
You will leave here.
476
00:29:56,550 --> 00:29:58,681
You will never come back.
477
00:29:58,683 --> 00:30:00,161
And if...
478
00:30:04,776 --> 00:30:06,691
What did you do?
479
00:30:06,694 --> 00:30:08,303
My job.
480
00:30:08,306 --> 00:30:09,610
He was gonna let us go!
481
00:30:09,613 --> 00:30:12,390
Shut up!
482
00:30:12,392 --> 00:30:14,044
Keep him hostage.
483
00:30:14,046 --> 00:30:15,654
And lock this door.
484
00:30:15,656 --> 00:30:17,833
I'll be back when it's safe.
485
00:30:21,012 --> 00:30:25,079
_
486
00:30:34,501 --> 00:30:35,761
Yeah?
487
00:30:35,763 --> 00:30:37,241
Hey, bud.
488
00:30:37,243 --> 00:30:40,244
I got your... call.
489
00:30:40,246 --> 00:30:42,507
What's up?
490
00:30:42,509 --> 00:30:44,945
Ah, no... four years sober next month.
491
00:30:48,951 --> 00:30:51,952
What is wrong?
492
00:30:51,954 --> 00:30:53,344
You know how I got Milton to agree
493
00:30:53,346 --> 00:30:54,737
to this whole communal project
494
00:30:54,739 --> 00:30:56,274
with these hick towns out in Virginia?
495
00:30:56,277 --> 00:30:57,871
Yeah.
496
00:30:57,873 --> 00:30:59,960
So she's released a
lot of resources for me.
497
00:30:59,962 --> 00:31:01,699
And I used some of them
498
00:31:01,702 --> 00:31:04,311
to send out a convoy full of supplies.
499
00:31:04,314 --> 00:31:05,922
For that other thing.
500
00:31:05,924 --> 00:31:07,706
Convoy didn't check in last week,
501
00:31:07,708 --> 00:31:09,578
so I sent out scouts
to see what happened.
502
00:31:09,580 --> 00:31:10,840
It was hijacked.
503
00:31:10,842 --> 00:31:12,735
Troopers guarding it, all dead.
504
00:31:12,738 --> 00:31:14,757
Oh, God.
505
00:31:16,326 --> 00:31:18,326
Who was it?
506
00:31:18,328 --> 00:31:20,502
Tracks led to an apartment complex
507
00:31:20,504 --> 00:31:21,764
where some group is holed up.
508
00:31:21,766 --> 00:31:23,418
Leader dresses like a general.
509
00:31:23,420 --> 00:31:26,073
Another warlord.
510
00:31:26,075 --> 00:31:28,597
Followers are religious, too.
511
00:31:28,599 --> 00:31:30,555
Mass on Tuesdays and Sundays.
512
00:31:30,557 --> 00:31:32,688
Cute.
513
00:31:32,690 --> 00:31:34,690
And they've got your guns now.
514
00:31:34,692 --> 00:31:36,563
And the cargo, too, I take it?
515
00:31:39,131 --> 00:31:41,305
Okay. What am I missing?
516
00:31:41,307 --> 00:31:42,923
It's just some warlord.
517
00:31:42,926 --> 00:31:44,352
Snuff them out.
518
00:31:44,354 --> 00:31:47,137
Assume the worst... That
the guns are pointing out
519
00:31:47,139 --> 00:31:49,191
of those top floors in all directions.
520
00:31:49,194 --> 00:31:51,794
I send in a squad, they get cut
down before they hit the door.
521
00:31:51,796 --> 00:31:54,188
Then don't send a squad, send a company.
522
00:31:54,190 --> 00:31:55,929
Then raze the whole building.
523
00:31:55,931 --> 00:31:57,278
I ask for a hundred troops,
524
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,150
there's no way Milton doesn't notice.
525
00:32:00,152 --> 00:32:02,472
"What happened, Lance?
526
00:32:02,475 --> 00:32:04,589
This seems like quite
the misfire, Lance."
527
00:32:04,591 --> 00:32:09,379
No, I need a surgical solution.
528
00:32:11,990 --> 00:32:14,382
Oh, man.
529
00:32:14,384 --> 00:32:16,427
I don't do that anymore, Lance.
530
00:32:16,429 --> 00:32:17,689
Come on.
531
00:32:17,691 --> 00:32:19,222
I need the former CIA guy
532
00:32:19,225 --> 00:32:20,823
who helped root out
disobedient shits from here
533
00:32:20,825 --> 00:32:22,042
back in the day.
534
00:32:22,044 --> 00:32:24,609
I need an assassin.
535
00:32:24,611 --> 00:32:29,136
Listen, I like being retired.
536
00:32:29,138 --> 00:32:33,531
I get up, I meditate,
then I get to go out
537
00:32:33,533 --> 00:32:35,853
and find people who need help
and give 'em a second chance.
538
00:32:35,855 --> 00:32:38,275
It's Zen. It feels great.
539
00:32:38,277 --> 00:32:39,842
And it can be taken from you.
540
00:32:44,022 --> 00:32:47,371
You, um...
541
00:32:47,373 --> 00:32:50,984
You tired of living, Lance?
542
00:32:52,204 --> 00:32:54,204
Hmm?
543
00:33:06,088 --> 00:33:08,653
Most of the dead troopers
are kids in their 20s.
544
00:33:11,093 --> 00:33:14,094
That's on me.
545
00:33:14,096 --> 00:33:16,052
I need to make it right.
546
00:33:20,580 --> 00:33:23,004
Okay.
547
00:33:23,062 --> 00:33:26,498
Okay.
548
00:33:26,501 --> 00:33:28,325
What are you thinking?
549
00:33:30,677 --> 00:33:32,887
- How's Aaron working out?
- He's great.
550
00:33:32,890 --> 00:33:34,308
He instantly connects with people.
551
00:33:34,311 --> 00:33:36,268
- Makes my job easy.
- Great.
552
00:33:36,271 --> 00:33:38,074
Do you know about his buddy, the priest?
553
00:33:38,076 --> 00:33:39,277
Stokes.
554
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,671
Oh.
555
00:33:40,674 --> 00:33:41,996
Okay, okay.
556
00:33:41,999 --> 00:33:44,564
So we go in like we're
making first contact,
557
00:33:44,567 --> 00:33:46,430
and then, since they are religious...
558
00:33:46,432 --> 00:33:49,303
Priest gets their guard
down, they let you in,
559
00:33:49,305 --> 00:33:52,697
go see the big chief, and then...
560
00:33:52,699 --> 00:33:54,395
do what you do.
561
00:33:54,397 --> 00:33:56,136
And what about when things turn
562
00:33:56,138 --> 00:33:58,355
and I have to tell them what's what?
563
00:33:58,357 --> 00:34:00,314
They'll fall in line.
564
00:34:00,316 --> 00:34:02,446
Everyone does.
565
00:34:06,931 --> 00:34:09,279
Sweep the rear.
566
00:34:16,158 --> 00:34:19,942
The guns and the cargo you hijacked.
567
00:34:19,944 --> 00:34:22,945
The ones that you massacred
my soldiers to get to,
568
00:34:22,947 --> 00:34:25,165
where are they?
569
00:34:25,167 --> 00:34:27,993
I got no idea what you're talking about.
570
00:34:37,788 --> 00:34:40,310
Three sets of tracks
led back here from there.
571
00:34:40,312 --> 00:34:42,312
You wanna try again?
572
00:34:43,924 --> 00:34:46,316
Oh.
573
00:34:46,318 --> 00:34:49,189
That caravan.
574
00:34:49,191 --> 00:34:53,323
Yeah, we... we found it like that.
575
00:34:55,327 --> 00:34:57,849
You just lied to me.
576
00:35:01,124 --> 00:35:04,952
Hey! Hey! Stop! Stop.
577
00:35:04,955 --> 00:35:06,771
Cuff him!
578
00:35:14,216 --> 00:35:15,954
Hey, dickless.
579
00:35:15,956 --> 00:35:18,653
If I found those weapons,
don't you think I...
580
00:35:22,354 --> 00:35:25,355
Ready the shelf, warlord.
581
00:35:25,357 --> 00:35:28,358
Top shelf, dead center.
582
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,708
How's that sound?
583
00:35:30,710 --> 00:35:33,105
Right above Billy.
584
00:35:34,806 --> 00:35:36,409
Ooh! Whoa, whoa, whoa!
585
00:35:36,412 --> 00:35:40,414
Hey! Hey, where'd you go, huh?
586
00:35:40,416 --> 00:35:43,286
All that talk, and you died so quick.
587
00:35:58,825 --> 00:36:01,957
Don't you look at me like that.
588
00:36:01,959 --> 00:36:04,307
He's a damn animal.
589
00:36:04,309 --> 00:36:06,657
We are supposed to be helping people.
590
00:36:06,659 --> 00:36:08,485
We are.
591
00:36:08,487 --> 00:36:11,096
This is the other side of it.
592
00:36:11,098 --> 00:36:14,187
Snuffing out threats.
593
00:36:14,189 --> 00:36:16,232
This is how we make the world safe.
594
00:36:21,108 --> 00:36:22,847
Hold him.
595
00:36:29,726 --> 00:36:31,726
Pop him!
596
00:36:51,443 --> 00:36:52,790
Oh.
597
00:36:52,792 --> 00:36:56,054
Interesting.
598
00:36:56,056 --> 00:36:57,795
Come on. Let's go.
599
00:37:05,414 --> 00:37:07,109
Do we follow?
600
00:37:07,111 --> 00:37:09,067
Sir!
601
00:37:14,118 --> 00:37:16,640
I turn my back for one goddamn minute!
602
00:37:27,131 --> 00:37:30,480
Get me my armor.
603
00:37:30,482 --> 00:37:33,570
He was a wolf, just
like their leader said.
604
00:37:33,572 --> 00:37:35,877
Think he was lying about
the stolen shipments?
605
00:37:35,879 --> 00:37:37,835
I don't know.
606
00:37:37,837 --> 00:37:40,490
What would the Commonwealth
want with all those guns?
607
00:37:47,107 --> 00:37:50,326
This the best way in?
608
00:37:50,328 --> 00:37:51,813
Yeah, but...
609
00:37:51,816 --> 00:37:53,337
where'd you get that?
610
00:37:53,340 --> 00:37:56,254
You gave it to the guy
who rode into Hilltop.
611
00:37:56,257 --> 00:37:58,681
No, I didn't.
612
00:37:58,684 --> 00:38:00,454
Then who did?
613
00:38:00,457 --> 00:38:04,420
_
614
00:38:07,519 --> 00:38:09,519
Easy, girl.
615
00:38:11,131 --> 00:38:13,349
Don't move.
616
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,877
How many of you are there?
617
00:38:19,879 --> 00:38:21,575
12.
618
00:38:21,577 --> 00:38:23,533
What are they armed with?
619
00:38:23,535 --> 00:38:25,235
Machine guns.
620
00:38:25,238 --> 00:38:26,411
I didn't know.
621
00:38:26,538 --> 00:38:29,409
I didn't know.
622
00:38:29,411 --> 00:38:31,106
What's it look like?
623
00:38:31,108 --> 00:38:32,587
A lot dead.
624
00:38:32,590 --> 00:38:34,413
Guy in charge is arguing
with two others...
625
00:38:34,416 --> 00:38:37,068
A priest and a guy with
a spiked ball for an arm.
626
00:38:37,070 --> 00:38:38,243
Shit.
627
00:38:38,245 --> 00:38:39,984
Gabriel and Aaron.
628
00:38:39,986 --> 00:38:41,290
You know them?
629
00:38:41,292 --> 00:38:43,102
They didn't know, either.
630
00:38:43,105 --> 00:38:45,206
We come from a place
called The Commonwealth.
631
00:38:45,209 --> 00:38:47,165
- This isn't what I signed up for.
- Shut up.
632
00:38:47,167 --> 00:38:48,515
Mm-hmm.
633
00:38:55,785 --> 00:38:58,394
There's a community right here.
634
00:38:58,396 --> 00:39:00,178
You ask for Maggie, no one else.
635
00:39:00,180 --> 00:39:03,530
You tell her Gabriel
and Aaron are in trouble.
636
00:39:03,532 --> 00:39:05,358
Go. Go!
637
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:07,577
Uh-huh.
638
00:39:10,408 --> 00:39:13,191
This is the other side of it.
639
00:39:13,193 --> 00:39:16,369
Snuffing out threats.
640
00:39:16,371 --> 00:39:18,632
This is how we make the world safe.
641
00:39:36,521 --> 00:39:37,781
Negan?
642
00:39:37,783 --> 00:39:39,783
Gabe.
643
00:39:45,691 --> 00:39:47,617
- Interesting.
- Two coming in.
644
00:39:47,619 --> 00:39:49,663
We gotta go!
645
00:39:49,665 --> 00:39:51,839
- We gotta go!
- We can't leave him.
646
00:39:51,841 --> 00:39:53,449
If you go out there, we all die.
647
00:39:53,451 --> 00:39:55,233
Come on.
648
00:39:59,979 --> 00:40:02,458
Sir!
649
00:40:07,292 --> 00:40:09,766
I turn my back for one goddamn minute!
650
00:40:12,806 --> 00:40:14,584
_
651
00:40:31,533 --> 00:40:35,056
Residents of The Complex.
652
00:40:35,058 --> 00:40:39,641
You have been deemed
enemies of The Commonwealth.
653
00:40:39,644 --> 00:40:42,601
One of you has stolen from us.
654
00:40:42,604 --> 00:40:45,997
That cannot stand.
655
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,771
Bad news is, your warlord is dead.
656
00:40:49,774 --> 00:40:54,989
The good news is, you
still can make things right.
657
00:40:54,991 --> 00:40:58,732
Gives us what's ours, and we'll leave.
658
00:40:58,734 --> 00:41:00,124
That'll be that.
659
00:41:00,126 --> 00:41:02,562
- Where are the weapons?
- I don't know.
660
00:41:02,564 --> 00:41:03,998
Then ask them... quickly.
661
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,914
Gabe, if she says they don't have them,
662
00:41:06,916 --> 00:41:08,568
they don't have them.
663
00:41:08,570 --> 00:41:09,917
You don't understand.
664
00:41:09,919 --> 00:41:11,701
I'm praying that you did steal them
665
00:41:11,703 --> 00:41:13,137
because without them, we're dead.
666
00:41:13,139 --> 00:41:15,357
He's not gonna let any
of us leave here alive.
667
00:41:25,325 --> 00:41:28,718
Where are my weapons?
668
00:41:28,720 --> 00:41:31,895
I don't know.
669
00:41:31,897 --> 00:41:33,723
You really don't, do you?
670
00:41:33,725 --> 00:41:35,943
No.
671
00:41:35,945 --> 00:41:37,771
Okay.
672
00:41:37,773 --> 00:41:39,163
I believe you.
673
00:41:50,263 --> 00:41:53,917
And how about you?
674
00:41:53,919 --> 00:41:56,441
Hmm?
675
00:42:20,685 --> 00:42:23,381
Your people have let you down!
676
00:42:26,604 --> 00:42:28,604
Hit each room.
677
00:42:28,606 --> 00:42:30,432
Kill anyone who won't talk.
678
00:42:30,434 --> 00:42:32,390
Copy that.
679
00:42:37,267 --> 00:42:41,922
What we need to do
now is stick together.
680
00:42:41,924 --> 00:42:43,880
You can forget about giving up
681
00:42:43,882 --> 00:42:45,839
or begging for forgiveness.
682
00:42:45,841 --> 00:42:48,450
Ian's dead.
683
00:42:48,452 --> 00:42:50,713
But he wasn't our first leader.
684
00:42:50,715 --> 00:42:53,455
He wasn't what kept
us together this long.
685
00:42:53,457 --> 00:42:57,764
We did, and we did it by
working together as a family.
686
00:42:57,766 --> 00:42:59,592
And right now, our family's scattered
687
00:42:59,594 --> 00:43:02,246
all over this building,
but you know what?
688
00:43:02,248 --> 00:43:06,033
We know this place better than
the assholes in our house do.
689
00:43:06,035 --> 00:43:08,644
We're coming out of this on top.
690
00:43:16,828 --> 00:43:19,524
So that was, um...
691
00:43:19,526 --> 00:43:21,493
That's pretty good.
692
00:43:21,496 --> 00:43:25,879
They... They took out our best.
693
00:43:25,881 --> 00:43:28,098
Yeah, but they needed to hear it.
694
00:43:30,254 --> 00:43:32,842
Hodges, come in. Is the east end clear?
695
00:43:37,632 --> 00:43:39,457
Hodges, do you copy?
696
00:43:42,245 --> 00:43:43,679
Is the east end...
697
00:43:58,237 --> 00:44:01,934
This place works because
everyone plays their part.
698
00:44:02,961 --> 00:44:07,094
If you can't or won't, that's
when the system breaks down.
699
00:44:07,096 --> 00:44:09,400
And we can't let that happen.
700
00:44:12,188 --> 00:44:15,774
We find our guns or we burn
this place to the ground.
701
00:44:15,777 --> 00:44:17,693
We have to get these people out of here.
702
00:44:21,996 --> 00:44:23,588
That's a fight you ain't gonna win.
703
00:44:34,123 --> 00:44:37,907
Why don't you want their help?
704
00:44:37,909 --> 00:44:39,256
The Commonwealth's?
705
00:44:42,305 --> 00:44:44,352
Because we can get by without it.
706
00:44:44,355 --> 00:44:46,610
One of the things that we wanted to show
707
00:44:46,613 --> 00:44:50,615
is that there is like even like
a bit of a generational divide
708
00:44:50,617 --> 00:44:53,021
between how Maggie's
looking at everything versus
709
00:44:53,024 --> 00:44:55,751
how Lydia and Elijah are looking at it.
710
00:44:55,753 --> 00:44:58,580
And I think, like, you're
seeing the after effects
711
00:44:58,582 --> 00:45:01,045
of somebody like Lydia
feeling like my mother
712
00:45:01,048 --> 00:45:03,803
had this point of view
that it's either us or them.
713
00:45:03,805 --> 00:45:07,850
And I think like she has kind
of come to the point of view
714
00:45:07,852 --> 00:45:10,548
that her mother was in fact wrong.
715
00:45:10,550 --> 00:45:12,550
You think the Commonwealth knows better?
716
00:45:12,552 --> 00:45:13,943
Is that crazy to think?
717
00:45:13,945 --> 00:45:15,510
Yes.
718
00:45:15,512 --> 00:45:19,035
Those people have not
been tested for 10 years.
719
00:45:19,037 --> 00:45:21,168
Do you wanna be there when they are?
720
00:45:21,170 --> 00:45:25,172
I think for Maggie, she
is really feeling burned
721
00:45:25,174 --> 00:45:26,739
by the experiences she's had.
722
00:45:26,741 --> 00:45:29,959
She feels that their
resources are limited
723
00:45:29,961 --> 00:45:31,395
and their energy is limited.
724
00:45:31,397 --> 00:45:34,877
So why extend yourself to help somebody
725
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:36,795
when you have no idea
if you're just walking
726
00:45:36,798 --> 00:45:38,054
into a trap?
727
00:45:38,056 --> 00:45:40,540
What happened to taking
in whoever was in need?
728
00:45:40,543 --> 00:45:42,711
Being outnumbered has
never stopped you before.
729
00:45:42,713 --> 00:45:44,321
Maybe it should have.
730
00:45:44,323 --> 00:45:46,628
The Maggie that's underneath all of that
731
00:45:46,630 --> 00:45:48,220
has a big heart.
732
00:45:48,223 --> 00:45:50,763
She's the one that kept
the doors of Hilltop open
733
00:45:50,765 --> 00:45:53,069
when Alexandria felt
they needed to close off.
734
00:45:53,071 --> 00:45:55,419
And so there is definitely a part of her
735
00:45:55,421 --> 00:45:57,030
that would like to get back to that,
736
00:45:57,032 --> 00:46:00,296
but she's struggling with
the experiences she had.
737
00:46:02,253 --> 00:46:05,124
God, do you feel that?
738
00:46:05,127 --> 00:46:07,257
That rush?
739
00:46:07,259 --> 00:46:09,782
That mix of dopamine
and adrenaline, just...
740
00:46:11,655 --> 00:46:14,874
Carlson is one of these guys that imagine
741
00:46:14,876 --> 00:46:20,227
he's really into like
New Age self-help mantras,
742
00:46:20,229 --> 00:46:23,752
and he's kind of too much to handle.
743
00:46:23,754 --> 00:46:27,669
And Aaron is kind of saying
like, you know, he's a weirdo,
744
00:46:27,671 --> 00:46:30,498
but at the same time, his
heart is in the right place.
745
00:46:30,500 --> 00:46:32,630
We've been doing something
that is meaningful,
746
00:46:32,632 --> 00:46:34,458
and none of that is...
Is false, by the way.
747
00:46:34,460 --> 00:46:37,070
Like, you know, we find
out in the flashback
748
00:46:37,072 --> 00:46:40,203
to when Carlson and Hornsby talk.
749
00:46:40,205 --> 00:46:42,336
I like being retired.
750
00:46:42,338 --> 00:46:46,731
I get up, I meditate,
then I get to go out
751
00:46:46,733 --> 00:46:49,280
and find people who need help
and give 'em a second chance.
752
00:46:49,283 --> 00:46:50,501
It's Zen.
753
00:46:50,504 --> 00:46:52,504
Gabriel's a very good
judge of character, too.
754
00:46:52,507 --> 00:46:54,233
So he's kind of like,
"Who is this fool?"
755
00:46:54,236 --> 00:46:56,176
Like, "What are we dealing with here?"
756
00:46:56,178 --> 00:46:58,482
And I think, like, in
very Gabriel's fashion,
757
00:46:58,484 --> 00:47:00,310
he has some pretty, like, funny lines
758
00:47:00,312 --> 00:47:03,096
that Seth delivers
beautifully, as always.
759
00:47:03,098 --> 00:47:04,488
Abort?
760
00:47:04,490 --> 00:47:07,274
Just because of some pre-game jitters?
761
00:47:07,276 --> 00:47:09,217
No, because your plan is shit,
762
00:47:09,220 --> 00:47:10,538
and I don't want to die.
763
00:47:10,540 --> 00:47:12,496
They're kind of saddled with this guy
764
00:47:12,498 --> 00:47:14,324
that they think is
probably going to drive
765
00:47:14,326 --> 00:47:15,586
them down a little bit.
766
00:47:24,815 --> 00:47:26,815
Seats.
767
00:47:26,817 --> 00:47:30,166
When Aaron goes into
this situation, he feels like,
768
00:47:30,168 --> 00:47:32,777
wow, this is more
intense than we expected,
769
00:47:32,779 --> 00:47:36,477
but Aaron is very, very
good at disarming people
770
00:47:36,479 --> 00:47:39,480
and just kind of calmly and cooly
771
00:47:39,482 --> 00:47:42,352
bringing the temperature
down and the situation.
772
00:47:42,354 --> 00:47:44,103
That's where we live.
773
00:47:44,106 --> 00:47:46,835
Whenever people see those photos,
774
00:47:46,837 --> 00:47:48,532
they want to live there, too.
775
00:47:48,534 --> 00:47:51,753
The point of distress starts to happen
776
00:47:51,755 --> 00:47:54,495
when Carlson speaks up in the meeting.
777
00:47:54,497 --> 00:47:56,279
Where is this, uh...
778
00:47:56,281 --> 00:47:57,977
Commonwealth located?
779
00:47:57,979 --> 00:47:59,761
He can't tell you that.
780
00:47:59,763 --> 00:48:01,110
Why?
781
00:48:01,112 --> 00:48:03,983
Because you say so?
782
00:48:03,985 --> 00:48:05,506
Yeah, that's right.
783
00:48:05,508 --> 00:48:07,769
For Aaron, what he doesn't expect
784
00:48:07,771 --> 00:48:09,727
is that this guy is going to turn around
785
00:48:09,729 --> 00:48:11,642
and suddenly turn
into like Jason Bourne.
786
00:48:11,644 --> 00:48:14,341
You will leave her.
787
00:48:14,343 --> 00:48:15,777
You will never come back again.
788
00:48:15,779 --> 00:48:17,083
And if...
789
00:48:19,957 --> 00:48:23,437
He had realize that was
all like operative business,
790
00:48:23,439 --> 00:48:27,310
you know, and that in fact,
he was actually very scary
791
00:48:27,312 --> 00:48:28,529
underneath the weirdness.
792
00:48:28,531 --> 00:48:30,879
For Aaron and Gabriel,
793
00:48:30,881 --> 00:48:33,142
they just feel like we regret
794
00:48:33,144 --> 00:48:34,578
all the decisions we've made
795
00:48:34,580 --> 00:48:37,277
over the last, like, 48 hours.
796
00:48:37,279 --> 00:48:39,061
Don't move.
797
00:48:43,067 --> 00:48:45,415
How many of you are there?
798
00:48:45,417 --> 00:48:47,683
So when we come across Negan,
799
00:48:47,686 --> 00:48:49,767
we're finding out a
lot of things about him,
800
00:48:49,769 --> 00:48:52,292
which is like, he's part
of this new community.
801
00:48:52,294 --> 00:48:55,338
Like, here's all this stuff
that is going on with him
802
00:48:55,340 --> 00:48:58,428
and that he's kind of like,
tried to like, start afresh.
803
00:48:58,430 --> 00:49:00,778
Right here. You ask
for Maggie, no one else.
804
00:49:00,780 --> 00:49:04,173
You tell her Gabriel
and Aaron are in trouble.
805
00:49:04,175 --> 00:49:06,828
- Go. Go!
- Uh-huh.
806
00:49:06,830 --> 00:49:09,918
I don't know how much he
has, like, completely changed,
807
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:12,268
but I think that the
journey that Negan is on
808
00:49:12,270 --> 00:49:15,880
is trying to figure out who
he wants to be going forward.
809
00:49:15,882 --> 00:49:20,624
And I think he understands
and has not forgotten the fact
810
00:49:20,626 --> 00:49:25,455
that he has done some things
that have really hurt people.
811
00:49:25,457 --> 00:49:27,283
I'm just getting started.
812
00:49:29,070 --> 00:49:32,549
He's a social creature. He
does not do well on his own.
813
00:49:32,551 --> 00:49:35,161
We felt that was very
in character for him
814
00:49:35,163 --> 00:49:37,685
is that he's like, I'm
striking out on my own,
815
00:49:37,687 --> 00:49:39,469
and he immediately runs
into a group is like,
816
00:49:39,471 --> 00:49:41,036
"Hey, let me join up."
817
00:49:41,038 --> 00:49:43,473
And then he's like,
deeply within it already,
818
00:49:43,475 --> 00:49:46,781
you know, over the course
of like some months.
819
00:49:46,783 --> 00:49:49,131
Your people have let you down!
820
00:49:52,789 --> 00:49:54,658
Hit each room.
821
00:49:54,660 --> 00:49:56,356
Kill anyone who won't talk.
822
00:49:56,358 --> 00:49:57,898
Copy that?
823
00:49:57,908 --> 00:50:03,956
