===="Chapter 84"====
At the war site, Kenny talks to Sarita about her decision and says he understands it, but just doesn't want to lose her. Sarita assures him that she won't be fully gone and she'll always be watching out for him. Rebecca attempts to talk to Sarah, who tells Rebecca that she just wants her dad to come back soon. Rebecca doesn't remind her of his death and simply agrees with her to keep her calm. Luke winces in pain as he sits down to rest for a moment. Mahiru goes over to him and says she can handle keeping watch by herself if he wants to rest longer, but Luke tells her that he's only resting for a short moment. Mahiru insists that he takes a break and walks off before he can disagree. At the Civil War museum, Omid, Javier, and Paige search the building in search of supplies, but have difficulty finding anything useful. Omid gets distracted by some of the plagues and monuments inside the museum. Javier jokingly pokes fun at Omid for claiming he isn't interested in Civil War history anymore, but Omid shrugs it off with disdain. Paige calls over Omid and Javier, saying she sees water barrels behind a locked door. Paige attempts to open the window gate into the room, but it opens halfway. Omid reaches his hand in to try and grab the doorknob, however, he has difficulty in reaching it. Omid leans further into the window gate and finally reaches the doorknob to unlock the door when he's suddenly grabbed by a walker that is trapped in the locked room. Paige grabs Omid's arm to try and pull him away from the walker as Javier attempts to kick the door in. Javier manages to kick open the door and rams into the walker before it can bite Omid. Paige enters the room and kills the walker as Javier pins it down. Javier grabs the water barrels, and as they head outside, Paige notices a raccoon. The trio suggests capturing it and eating it for later. After trying to capture it, the raccoon heads outside where it is revealed to have a family, and Javier expresses he's not disappointed that they failed to catch it, since it has a family. The three then head back to Parker's Run with the water barrels. While walking to the observation deck, Sandy says how she is not sure if staying at the war site is the best idea given how open and defenseless it is, but Clementine thinks that it's safe enough to rest for a few days. Sandy mentions to Clementine that she has to be smart and logical, even in the safest situations. Sandy reveals to Clementine that her parents used to take her and Meg to places like this when they were kids, especially during the Summer. Once they get to the observation deck, they notice several walkers lurking around the area. Sandy tells Clementine they'll have to be quiet and smart about how they take them out. Sandy tells Clementine that she saw her struggling to use the hatchet Luke had given her and instead gives her a scratch awl. Sandy states she had taken it from Howe's and calls it a more agile weapon that won't get stuck as much as the hatchet. They start walking closer to two walkers. Clementine kills one of them, and Sandy attacks the other, while also demonstrating a new tactic to Clementine; to kick the walkers in the knees and then stab them in the back of the head. They press onward and discover two more walkers blocking the way to the stairs. Clementine manages to take care of this walker while Sandy finishes off the rest of them. A third walker appears, surprising Clementine, however, Clementine uses the new tactic Sandy had shown her and kills it, to which Sandy is pleasantly surprised and merits her use of the tactic. At the top, they discover an ideal safe location for Rebecca to give birth, however, it is locked under a padlock and will take some time to open. As Sandy attempts to pick the lock, she instructs Clementine to use the binoculars to search around for anything interesting. As Clementine searches the area, she sees nothing worth pointing out, until she turns around from the binoculars and notices a stranger approaching the observation deck from afar, and this forces the two to hide. The man climbs to the top and attempts to stuff a bag into a garbage bin, but Clementine startles him by talking to him. The man reacts with nervous hostility and points his gun at her, saying he will not hesitate to shoot her. As Clementine begins talking to him, Sandy sneaks up behind him and disarms him, forcing him to drop his bag. The man reveals his name to be Arvo, and Clementine discovers the bag to be filled with medical supplies. Sandy questions him on where he got that medicine and why he was stashing it away. Arvo reveals he has a sister who is sick and he was hiding the medicine for safekeeping so he could give it to her when she needed it. Sandy, however, does not believe his story and believes he is a drug addict that is hoarding supplies away from people who may need them more and urges Clementine to hand her the bag. Arvo begs Clementine not to take the medicine, but she hands the bag to Sandy. Sandy drops the bag behind her, grabs Arvo, and places the gun to his head. She threatens him not to ever come back to this area again or she'll do worse to him than kill him, before sending him away. As he disappears into the woods, Sandy momentarily regrets her actions, noticing that he was "just a kid." Clementine tells her that they need the medicine not just for themselves but for the others too. Sandy agrees and says Rebecca will need it for the birth, as well as Kenny and Luke for their own injuries. Ryder arrives shortly after, saying he heard yelling and was concerned something had happened, but Sandy tells him that they were just taking care of some walkers, before returning her attention to the lock. Sandy tells Clementine to take the bag back to the others, mentioning to Ryder they found a lot of medicine in that bag. As Clementine leaves, Ryder asks her if she needs help with the lock, which she allows him to help her with. Ryder asks her how she's been doing since they left Howe's. Sandy says she hasn't had time to ask herself that question or to feel much of anything, stating she wishes she could feel something else for one moment. Ryder gets the lock off, and opens the door, revealing not a lot of anything inside. Ryder says this room could be a good spot to hold up in at night instead of sitting around in the open. Sandy walks around before she stops in front of Ryder. Sandy questions him if he felt the same way she did, about wanting to experience something else. Ryder is unsure of what she means but agrees that he would like to. Sandy propositions they could both experience something different for a change, hinting at sex. Once Ryder realizes her intentions, he reveals that he would be very interested and had an interest in her before she mentioned this. Sandy quickly kisses him, and both of them begin taking off each other's clothes.
===="Chapter 91"====
The following two days after, the group makes their way through snow-covered ground in Virginia. Kenny believes that they'll eventually have to find something they can use so they won't have to walk all the way. Luke is incredibly dismissive of Kenny's plan to leave and argues that they should have stayed, saying they're running out of food and Rebecca is getting worse. Rebecca tells him that she's fine, but Paige disagrees, saying she's paler than she was yesterday and agrees that staying probably would have been best after all. Kenny is irritated by the lack of enthusiasm for trying to get to Richmond. Sandy tells him it won't do them any good if they end up freezing to death before they get close to it. Sandy further adds that they should stop for a minute so Rebecca can rest a bit, but she assures Sandy that she's fine and can keep going. Clementine walks with Sarah, while listening to the adults argue about their situation. Javier suggests finding a place to settle in and split the group up to go search for supplies or a vehicle while another stays behind with Rebecca and AJ. Luke and Ryder agree with the idea, but Kenny says that the idea of sitting around is stupid and that it'll start snowing even worse the longer they wait. Mahiru says they have a long way to go before they get there and they can't just keep walking without stopping. Omid agrees that taking a break to find a place to lay low is the best course of action. Rebecca suddenly loses her footing and collapses, halting their travel as she rests on a car tire. Kenny asks her how long she might need so they can keep going, which angers Sandy and Luke intensely, who begin arguing with Kenny over his reckless ideas. As Sandy, Kenny, and Luke persist arguing over the decision to keep going or not, the man, Arvo, that Sandy and Clementine met earlier arrives. Everyone goes silent as he slowly makes his way over to them. Omid asks him what he's doing here and what he wanted. Arvo asks if this is everyone in their group, and recounts how Sandy and Clementine had stolen the medicine from him. Luke questions what he means and Sandy reveals she told Clementine to take the bag from him because they needed it more. Arvo says that his sister needed that medicine too. Arvo raises his hand up and a few people come out from the woods with guns. One of them being Arvo's sister, Natasha. Clementine asks Arvo what he's doing, and Arvo informs them all that they are going to take what they have to repay him for stealing and they should consider themselves lucky that they followed them for this purpose only. Everyone readies their weapons as the other group show signs of hostility. Kenny threatens them to leave before he kills them all, with one of the other members gloating at his threat and dares him to try. The groups begin to argue on top of each other, either by threatening or attempting to talk each other down, and Clementine looks over at Rebecca, who is slumped over on the car tire when she starts to move again. Clementine continues to stare at her as everyone argues and is horrified to discover that Rebecca has died and is reanimating into a walker with AJ in her arms. Clementine raises her gun and promptly shoots the zombified Rebecca. The gunshot startles everyone and other gunshots begin firing.
===Season 8: Fear The Stalkers===
===="Chapter 92"====
The episode begins with the group and Arvo's group engaging each other in a gunfight. Clementine falls to the ground, dazed. Clementine looks around and sees Javier shot in the shoulder, who retreats to cover with Paige, Mahiru, Ryder, and Sarah. Arvo is seen trying to help his sister Natasha, who has been shot in the chest. She tells him to leave and save himself before she dies. Wilson, Sandy, and Kenny fire at each other while Brick, shot in the leg, fires at Luke and Omid, who are hiding behind a rock wall. Clementine then spots the baby laying and crying on the ground beside the corpse of his mother Rebecca, with bullets ricocheting off the ground extremely close to him. Clementine crawls toward the baby, but halts when she is almost shot by a stray bullet. Luke shouts at Clementine to get behind cover, as she is out in the open. However, Clementine races towards the baby, grabbing him and running back to Luke and Omid without being harmed. Luke says he didn't see the baby on the ground and thanks Clementine. Omid tells them that they can't just sit behind the wall and wait until the other group runs out of ammo. Luke tells Omid that if he can get to the side of the wall, he could get a good angle on the one that had been shot in the leg. Luke asks Omid to cover him while he runs to the other wall, to which he agrees. As Luke makes his way out, Omid fires at the remaining hostiles, however, Wilson comes out of cover and manages to shoot Luke in the leg as he runs behind the other wall. Luke falls but manages to shoot Brick in the head before he gets himself behind cover. As the remaining hostile continues to fire upon him, Kenny, surveying the area, notices a panicked Arvo hunched over his dead sister. In order to coerce Wilson out of cover, Kenny takes Arvo hostage, threatening to shoot him if Wilson does not comply. Wilson hesitantly stands and aims at Kenny, continuing to mutter threats towards him. In the midst of the stand-off, Natasha reanimates as a walker, as Arvo desperately attempts to escape Kenny's grasp to help her, not realizing she had reanimated. The now zombified Natasha begins to crawl towards Clementine before the child shoots her in the head. Arvo, in despair at seeing his sister shot by Clementine, finally manages to break free from Kenny's clutches and runs to his sister's corpse, breaking down in tears before glaring at Clementine. Wilson now fires at the vulnerable Kenny, who dives to the ground just in time to avoid the gunfire. Wilson then tries to approach Kenny to execute him, but he's suddenly tackled to the ground by Javier who manages to knock the gun out of his hand. Wilson curses at him and pulls out a knife and tries to attack Javier with it, but only manages to barely cut him before Javier grabs the knife and plunges it into Wilson's chest. The rest of the group slowly emerges from cover, while Sarah frantically panics to herself, calling out for her dad. Mahiru attempts to calm her down, but she tunes her out. The group then gather around Rebecca's body, mourning her loss and promising to take care of her baby. Kenny, visibly irritated, walks over to Arvo and begins to hit him, but is stopped by Luke and Javier. Luke and Javier defend Arvo from Kenny, claiming that he is no longer a threat to them, to which Kenny disagrees, before pulling out his gun and angrily telling Javier to move out of the way. Sandy and Paige believe that Arvo still could be dangerous, but beating him to death isn't the right way to go about it. Sandy further adds that they should just knock him out and leave him here. Arvo condemns Sandy, calling her a murderer for shooting her sister. Sandy argues back that they attacked them. Kenny indicates his reaction as reason enough to execute him. As the group converses, Arvo tells the group that he has food and shelter and that he can take them there. Eventually, the argument is defused, and Kenny begrudgingly agrees to follow Arvo to shelter. Clementine goes over to Sarah to talk her out of her manic episode and to focus on what they need to do. Sarah snaps out of it and gets up without a word. Ryder questions if they should attempt to bury Rebecca, but Kenny says they don't have the time nor do they have any tools to help. Ryder decides to lay her body on the ground instead of letting her body stay slumped against the tire.
===="Chapter 93"====
On their way forward to the location Arvo had mentioned, Sandy talks with Clementine about her increasing concerns for Kenny's mental state. Sandy claims that Clementine is the only person in the group that Kenny truly trusts and that she will have to be the one to pull him back from this state if he continues to go down it. Clementine says she'll try. As the group continues on, Luke's leg gives out, which he claims is due to him putting too much weight on it. The group all agree to stop for a short while, but Arvo, seemingly lost in his thoughts, doesn't hear Kenny telling him to stop. Enraged once more, Kenny throws Arvo to the ground and continues to threaten him. Once again, Javier interrupts this argument and halts the conflict. Paige then gives Ryder the baby to look after while she helps tend to Luke's leg wound. After Paige has a short conversation with Luke about his and others' tendencies to get into fights, she asks Omid to keep pressure on Luke's wound while she goes to grab some bandages. Luke, now alone with Omid, proceeds to express heavy guilt regarding the rest of the cabin survivors, expressing disbelief that he and Sarah are the only ones left, and believing that the others had died in vain. Omid silents in silence for a moment before assuring him that he couldn't have done anything for his friends, but he insists that he could have done more for the group, and has to live with his decisions. Omid tells him that he can't live in the past and confides that for a long time he kept living in the past but is slowly starting to look more to the future and he should do the same. Paige eventually returns with a bandage for Luke. Mahiru comes over with some antibiotics and insists that Luke should take a few in case an infection sets in. Sandy sits next to Ryder, who is comforting the baby. Sandy says he looks good with a baby in his arms. He laughs and says he's gonna adopt him. Ryder expresses his disbelief over everything that happened and is relieved that they were able to fend off Arvo's group. Sandy agrees and states that she wishes they had stayed behind at the observation deck for a few days, and maybe Rebecca would have still been alive. Ryder believes that Rebecca lost too much blood and the cold wasn't helping her in the first place. Ryder then asks her if she wants to hold him, but Sandy declines, saying she's not familiar with babies. Sandy looks over at Kenny and asks Ryder if he thinks Kenny might be dangerous. Ryder thinks that Kenny is overcome with a lot of grief right now, but believes his treatment of Arvo is becoming a bit unnecessary. Sandy tells him that his bandage needs to be cleaned, but is hesitant on doing it herself. Ryder looks over at Clementine, who is sitting next to Sarah, and calls her over. Ryder asks Clementine if she could change Kenny's bandage and clean it, saying there is rubbing alcohol in the bag. Clementine agrees to do so and goes to grab the medicine. Heading over to Kenny, the two discuss possible names for the baby, before ultimately agreeing on Alvin Jr., Kenny then notices the bottle of alcohol in Clementine's hands, and assures her that he is fine, and doesn't need his wound cleaned or bandaged. After some coaxing, Clementine manages to convince him to change his bandages. She successfully manages to take off the old bandage, sterilize the wound, and attach a clean bandage, during which they talk further about how Alvin Jr, and Kenny's own guilt over the demise of Alvin and Rebecca. Kenny reveals that he feels partially responsible for Alvin's death. Kenny says he wants to make things right for Rebecca and Alvin. Clementine tells him that they need him to be strong. After getting cleaned up, the group decides to continue on to the supply house.
===="Chapter 94"====
With dusk approaching and the weather getting colder, the group stumbles across an abandoned power station, and Kenny asks Arvo if it is the shelter he is taking them to. Arvo exclaims that the shelter is a church that itself is a few hours away, a detail that irritates Kenny, who claims that Arvo has been lying to them. Omid believes that it might be a good place to rest up for the night, since it's protected by fences. Kenny hands AJ to Clementine, while he volunteers to go down and check it out. Omid and Paige then offer to go with him. While the three are exploring, Clementine calms down AJ, who starts crying. Mahiru compliments her on how well she's handling it and says that he seems to like her. Clementine says he's cute, and Mahiru tells her that most babies are pretty ugly when they're born. Javier chimes in agreeing and saying they look like "little aliens." Sandy is adjusting Luke's bandages. Luke thanks her for the help, and she says it's not a problem. Ryder asks him how his leg is doing, and Luke tells him that it's still hurting pretty bad, but he thinks he'll make it. Ryder reminds him to keep taking some painkillers to help. Luke disagrees and says that they're already getting a bit low on them now, but Ryder assures him to take them anyway. Soon after, Kenny, Omid, and Paige return and call the rest of the group to get settled at the station. The group later settle around a small fire, with Arvo tied up close by, and Sarah standing off on her own near the fence. Luke states that today is his birthday, which the group congratulates him on. Mahiru asks him how old he is and Luke tells her that he's been keeping up with the dates since it all started, and says that he is 27. Sandy reveals to him that he's four years older than her through the casual conversation. Luke confides in them that he feels much older than he is, and receives a humorous dismissal by Kenny, who is much older than he is. Javier takes out a special bottle of rum which he had been saving for a special occasion. Omid is surprised by the type of rum it is, saying that he never saw it while going through the alcoholic drinks back at Howe's. Javier jokingly states that he has his ways. Ryder says that Clementine ought to have a drink too, but Kenny says that she shouldn't. Sandy, however, tries to convince him to let her take a sip anyway, saying that she drank an entire bottle of tequila once when she was underage and turned out fine anyway, but Kenny is still adamant about it. Javier passes it to Luke and asks him to make a toast. Luke decides to toast the loved ones that the group has lost along the way, and to the hope that they may see them again one day. Afterward, Kenny volunteers to take the first watch with AJ, while Clementine tries to coax Sarah over to join them, but she still refuses. Paige believes that Sarah may just want some alone time to herself, noting that the gunfight seemed to have upset her even more than she was. Clementine decides to get up and walk over to Sarah to check on her and overhears Sarah talking to someone. Once she gets closer, she overhears Sarah having a conversation with her father. Clementine asks Sarah what she's doing, and Sarah dismisses what she was doing and said she was just standing around. Clementine asks her if she wants to join everyone by the fire, but Sarah says she wants to stay where she is and thanks her for asking. Clementine leaves her alone to rejoin the others and is immediately offered the bottle of rum by Sandy. Clementine coughs violently after drinking it, and says that it wasn't as bad as the whiskey she shared with Nick. Luke jokingly recalls hearing Nick mention that she took a sip of moonshine whiskey once. Sandy then notices Kenny was watching and shakes his head in disapproval. Sandy grabs the bottle back from Clementine to keep her out of trouble. She then gives Clementine the bottle to offer to Kenny, saying he needs it too. Clementine heads over to Kenny, and he lightly scolds her about that decision of drinking. He then apologizes for his harsh reactions to Clementine about the drink, before going on about Katjaa and Duck and that he didn't raise his son as he should have and that he wasn't always there when he needed him. He states that he used to believe that he enjoyed the time away from his family, but that he would do anything to have one more second with them. Kenny then vows that he won't make the same mistakes raising AJ, before asking Clementine to return to the fire. Clementine tells him that AJ might be cold, and he should relax for a second. Kenny gets up and decides to join the others by the fire again, with Clementine behind him. Luke starts talking about one time he and Nick got into a small bar fight with a group of guys. Luke says that it was sort of their fault in the first place, and they broke a few tables, and he had gotten his front tooth chipped by one of the bigger guys there. Ryder laughs, and asks what it was they were fighting with them about. Luke tells him it was about a sports team at the time, then it went into more self-degrading insults. Paige rolls her eyes and jokes about men. Mahiru states she's glad she doesn't have to deal with men in romance. Being on the topic of alcohol, Ryder questions Sandy about her first experience of drinking tequila, saying he was curious how and when she did it. The others agree that it sounds like she has an interesting story about it. Sandy tells them that when her parents were out to dinner, she snuck into their wine cabinet and opened a bottle of tequila, wanting to taste it after her mom told her not to. Clementine says that it sounded like she was a bad kid. Sandy laughs, and says she was, and in some way, still is. Sandy goes on by saying at the bottom of the bottle there were these "sugar crystals" and she got it in her head that she wanted to eat them, so she got the idea of smashing the bottle on her parent's dining room table. "The problem with glass when you're drunk... is they look a lot like sugar crystals." Sandy says to them. Luke confirms his suspicions and asks if she actually ate glass, and she says she did. Everyone laughs at the thought of her accidentally eating glass, to which she tells them all to "shut the fuck up" while laughing herself. She tells them that Meg came in and found her sitting on the ground, drunk and blood pouring out of her mouth. Sandy says that Meg called the paramedics and she had to get her stomach pumped, and she was grounded for weeks. Omid chuckles as he takes a swig of the rum. Kenny jokingly points out that this is the first time he's seen Omid smile or laugh in a long time. Omid shrugs and hands the bottle to Luke. Luke, while drinking some of the rum, says how long it's been since he's had a drink, remembering the last time he had one was with this girl back at Howe's, and it "ended up being a very nice night." Javier laughs and asks for some details about this "night," while Mahiru says they shouldn't be talking about that with Clementine around. Clementine says she knows what they're talking about, with Mahiru hoping she doesn't, while Sandy says she does, so she won't have to censor herself around her so much. Kenny mockingly asks her if this is what she calls "censoring" herself around her now. Curious, Ryder asks her if she does know what they're talking about, and Clementine assumes it is about "kissing." Sandy, Javier, Omid, and Ryder burst out laughing, thinking it's funny that she indeed has no clue what they're actually talking about. Luke lies, saying that she's right. Javier asks if he knew who the girl was, and Luke says it was actually Bonnie. He goes on saying they had dated for a bit but decided to break things off when he first mentioned to her about leaving Howe's. Once Sandy is handed the bottle again, she hands it to Kenny, saying that she noticed he never had a drink and urges him to just have one sip. Kenny indulges her and takes a sip, thanking her for it, but says that'll be enough for him, joking that he'll have to "drive them all home". Mahiru says it's nice that they're all just relaxing and having a good time for once, saying it's been a long time since she's seen this. Everyone else agrees, and Kenny says that once they get to Richmond, they'll have plenty more nights like this then. Kenny gets back up and says that he'll take the first watch while everyone else should get some sleep.
===="Chapter 95"====
By morning, the group continues on their way through the forest towards the shelter. Kenny, still bickering with Arvo, unknowingly walks past a walker lying dormant behind a rock, which gets up and attempts to attack him, sending both the walker and Kenny to the ground. Paige shoots the walker dead and saves Kenny, and Ryder expresses concern over the noise of the gunshot and the potential of drawing more walkers to their location. Luke says they should get moving, and not wait around to find out. Omid asks Arvo how much longer until they find his shelter, and Arvo tells him that it's not much further. After a short walk, Arvo leads them to the church. The church itself stands at the other end of a frozen lake, which the group is initially apprehensive to cross. Realizing that there are no nearby crossings, and at the insistence of Arvo that the ice is thick enough for them to cross over, the group decides to cross the lake, with Arvo volunteering to take the lead. Javier believes that it's pretty risky, citing the possible dangers if one of them falls through the ice. Sandy says that going across may be their only option, and suggests not huddling together, so it will be safer. Mahiru points out not to step on any dark spots in the ice, as it means it is thinner than the rest. Kenny and Javier go on ahead first with Arvo leading, with Javier holding onto AJ. Clementine and Sarah shortly follow them, with Sandy, Omid, Mahiru, and Ryder behind them. Luke and Paige then start making their way across. Soon after, a small group of walkers appears behind them, presumably drawn from the sound of the earlier gunshot, and the group notices them as they also begin to tread across the lake. As clusters of walkers begin to fall through the ice, the group pauses in panic. Arvo, seeing an opportunity while the group is distracted, begins to desperately run towards land, while an angered Kenny follows suit. Javier, noticing the scuffle, chases after the two, believing Kenny will hurt him. Arvo crosses a weak spot and plunges into the icy water, struggling to get back out. Kenny catches up to him and pulls him out, and the two, along with Javier holding the baby, make it to the other side. The remainder of the group, seeing that the rest have made it safely across, begin to continue along the ice. Clementine stays behind and urges Sarah to keep going while trying to make sure everyone else gets across safely. Omid and Mahiru make it past some of the uncertain patches of ice and soon join the rest on land. Clementine waits for everyone else to catch up and Sandy tells her she needs to go ahead and get across. However, they both hear the sound of ice cracking behind them, and turn to see Luke standing over a severely cracked patch of ice. Frozen in fear, Luke looks up at the two of them. Paige and Ryder carefully walk back over to try and guide Luke. Luke says he can make it and he just needs to go slow. Paige warns him of his leg and that he needs help and attempts to walk over to him until he tells her to stay back. After moving too swiftly, the ice begins to break, sending Luke's injured leg into the water. Paige, now excessively worried, calls out to him, but Luke continues to insist that he can pull himself out of the water. Sandy alerts them that the walkers are getting closer and that they need shoot the ones getting too close. Luke tries to pull his leg out slowly while Paige makes her way toward him. Ryder tells Paige that they need to wait and too much pressure on the ice will cause it to collapse, however, Paige tells him that she can't just stand there and not do anything. Sandy slowly makes her way closer to them as well, saying that in case something happens, they'll have to be close and act fast. Ryder pleads with her to be careful. Once Paige finally reaches Luke, the ice gives way and both of them fall into the freezing water. Sandy rushes over to the cracked ice to try and pull them both out, managing to grab Luke's hand. Ryder makes his way over and helps Sandy grab Luke, while Clementine continues to shoot the walkers. Luke lets go and says he needs to find Paige before diving under the water. Sandy attempts to go in the water as well to help, but Ryder holds her back. Luke comes back up from the water with Paige, and the two of them pull them back up. Sandy yells from across the lake to the others to get in that church and start a fire quickly, before Luke and Paige freeze to death.
===="Chapter 96"====
Kenny rams the doors to the church open, with Sandy exclaiming that they must get a fire started to prevent Luke and Paige from freezing to death. Sandy, Mahiru, and Ryder immediately scavenge around the church for materials to burn as Omid and Javier empty the fireplace in the back room. Clementine holds on to AJ as everyone quickly tries to find blankets for Luke and Paige. Javier expresses his disbelief at how bad things turned out. Kenny proceeds to angrily blame Arvo for the incident. Arvo, now pushed to his breaking point from all of the abuse, curses Kenny. Kenny violently rushes towards Arvo, beating him severely while roaring insults at the Russian. Sarah screams and runs out of the room, while Clementine and Javier tell Kenny to stop. Javier grabs Kenny to pull him away from Arvo, resulting in Kenny punching him in the face. Kenny reels back, shocked by what he did. Sandy, Mahiru, and Ryder return to the room with some firewood and a bag of supplies that Sandy is shown to be holding. Sandy reveals to everyone that Arvo wasn't lying about the supplies and chastises Kenny for beating him to near death. Kenny calls Sandy out for resorting to violence in the past with little consideration for the people she hurt or killed, which Sandy retorts by saying they were either trying to kill her or people she cared about and accuses Kenny of becoming unhinged, believing it's only a matter of time before he does something even worse. Omid whistles loudly to stop them from bickering and asks for some help in finding matches, a lighter, or something to ignite a spark in the fire. Ryder reaches into his pocket and pulls out a lighter, saying it belonged to his family. After the fire is successfully lit, Luke and Paige huddle around the fire, barely able to speak due to the extreme cold they are experiencing. Kenny then proceeds to tie Arvo up while everyone sits down to rest. Sarah walks back in, seemingly less upset than she was, and calmly says the church reminds her a bit of the cabin and wonders if they're going to stay here. Mahiru tells her they will for a bit at least.
===="Chapter 97"====
Upon waking up, Clementine sees Javier tending to Arvo's wounds and asking if he was alright, while Sandy joins her and offers her some food. Omid walks over to Javier and asks why he's bothering talking to him, considering he doesn't seem to want much to do with anyone. Javier tells him that he just feels sorry for him. Omid, however, believes they shouldn't offer him much sympathy since he and his group tried to rob them. Javier understands that Arvo is not completely innocent, but reminds him that Arvo is still just a kid. Omid states that kids don't get to be kids anymore and he should be treated like an adult. Sandy talks to Clementine about the events that happened and wonders if it was a good idea to follow Arvo to the church, noting that while they do have some supplies, it is limited and has nothing for AJ to eat. Clementine asks if he has anything left that he can eat, and Sandy informs her that there isn't much formula left and they'll need to figure out what to do next before they run out. The two of them then discuss Kenny, as Sandy argues that he is becoming a very clear and present threat to the group. She claims that he is going down a dark path, and draws parallels between him and Carver. She ominously states that while they may have known him for a long time, they'll have to decide how much it is worth in the very near future. AJ begins to cry and Clementine comforts him, giving him some baby formula. Kenny walks in from outside with a smile on his face. He tells everyone to come with him outside and that he discovered something really special. Once everyone gathers outside, Kenny shows them all a large van parked outside. He tells them that the van is in good condition and just needs tuning up and it should run. Ryder is extremely ecstatic about the van, pointing out that it'll have plenty of room for everyone to ride in comfort to Richmond. Luke and Paige walk outside, mostly recovered from their fall into the icy waters, and are enthusiastic about the discovery. Javier opens the back of the van and finds a few mattresses sitting in the back. Mahiru is skeptical about why there are mattresses in the back, but Kenny assures her that people were most likely living in here since there were a few empty food cans in there as well. Omid questions Kenny if he can fix it, and Kenny tells him that he used to work on cars a lot throughout his life and can certainly get it back running. Luke begins to shiver and says he needs to get back in by the fire for a bit longer. Kenny asks Luke to do him a favor and to lock Arvo in one of the rooms so he can't do anything, which annoys Javier. Omid instead volunteers to do it, telling Luke to just go in and sit by the fire. He also tells Paige she should do the same, but Paige says she's doing better now. Kenny tells everyone they should just go inside and rest up a bit while he tries to get the van working. Javier goes to Kenny and asks him about Arvo, which Kenny annoyingly states that they will leave him behind. Javier argues with Kenny, expressing concern over the possibility of him dying by himself, and that he knows the area and could be a potential help to them. No one else chimes in, realizing that Arvo may be an issue. Luke decides to speak up and agrees with Javier that it's cruel to just leave him by himself. Sandy says they could leave him one bottle of water and a can of food and let him fend for himself, adding that they would be giving him more of a chance than he or his former group would have given them. Omid suddenly returns and tells everyone that Arvo is gone and he can't find him. Kenny sarcastically asks Javier if he thinks Arvo is "just a kid" still before running back inside. Everyone draws their weapons in case Arvo is armed and waiting to ambush them, when Clementine notices that Sarah is not with them either. Realizing the stakes are higher now, everyone frantically starts to search for Arvo and Sarah. Mahiru searches the back hallways, opens the closet, and her face sinks in horror. Sarah is inside, holding a knife, covered in blood, sitting next to Arvo's dead body. "Don't worry. My dad said he couldn't be trusted so I took care of it." Sarah says to Mahiru.
