Chapter 27

Chapter 27 is the sixth episode of Season 3: Long Road Ahead of The Walking Dead.
==Plot==
Sandy wakes up with a start and looks over at Ben, who is passed out. Sandy gets up and wakes him up, telling him to go sit on the couch and she'll watch Lilly, who is also asleep. Ben asks Sandy what she thinks they'll end up doing with Lilly, but Sandy tells him to just go back to sleep. Lee awakens and stands up when Kenny quietly announces that there was an obstacle in their way; a derailed train. Kenny calls for everyone (except Lilly) to get off of the RV so that they could let the engine cool down. Katjaa takes a visibly depressed Duck over to a fallen log and sits him down in her lap to keep him close. She asks Lee and Sandy if they could search for anything on the train to drink for her son, but Kenny identifies the train as a freight train rather than a commercial train. He warns Lee, Sandy, and Ben to be careful as they check out the train. When the three of them check the boxcar, they discover a modified set-up to accommodate someone living in the boxcar. Ben shares his concern, hoping that the owner was gone, but Sandy notes that the boxcar looked recently used. Lee finds a half-full bottle of water and a map of the train's routes that he gives to Katjaa and Kenny respectively. When Lee checks the second door compartment on the engine car, he finds a spanner, a rusty monkey wrench, and a track key remover. He takes the spanner and leaves the others in the compartment. When Sandy and Ben search the engine car, they find a dead body slumped in a chair. Sandy takes out her knife and slowly opens the door to the engine car. She stabs the body in the head and confirms that it is not a walker, she pulls the body out of the chair, discovering a blinking button. Ben tells Sandy to push the button, to which she declares a sketchy idea. Ben decides to push it and a loud hissing noise from the train announces that the brakes have been disabled.
Kenny boards the train, excited that the train could still be functional. He sends Ben out to watch over his family and Clementine while he tries to teach himself the controls, then asks Lee to see if he can get the train moving. Lee finds a notepad that used to contain the instructions on how to start the train, but the page with the control directions had been torn off, nowhere to be found. At Clementine's suggestion, Lee searches the RV for a pencil he could use to outline the indentations on the notepad. He finds a pencil by the console, only to discover Lilly - having freed herself from her bonds - ready to take the vehicle and leave. Lilly tells him that she could have killed him, and reveals that part of her understands why she and Kenny killed her father, but the other part wanted to still kill him. She grabs him and throws him out of the RV. Lilly ends up starting the engine and Sandy alerts Kenny that she's taking the RV. Lilly drives away in the direction they had come from, despite Kenny's shouts for her to stop. When the RV is out of sight, he decides to return his attention to the train, seeing it as their only way to reach the coast in time for Duck to get help.
