Chapter 61 is the thirteenth episode of Season 5: All That Remains of The Walking Dead.
==Plot==
Upon entering the lodge, Clementine is amazed by how normal the inside is, especially with the Christmas theme. Sandy questions Kenny and Walter if they had decorated the place themselves. Walter tells her about how they found it a few weeks ago, while Kenny mocks him behind his back jokingly. The rest of the group, minus Carlos, Sarah, and Sarita, enter and are wary of Kenny and his group. Walter politely asks them to put their weapons away. Luke and Paige express their concerns politely for that, while Nick, Mahiru, and Rebecca are less passive on it. Kenny asks Sandy and Clementine if they can vouch for them, to which Sandy says Clementine would know since she's known them longer, and she does. Kenny places his rifle on the ground, and shortly, the rest of the group follow suit. Carlos, Sarah, and Sarita enter, and Sarah makes a comment about the Christmas tree. Walter then takes the group up the stairs to show them their rooms, while Sandy, Kenny, and Clementine sit by the fireplace and talk. Kenny jokingly mentions Clementine's hat, and that he's surprised she's still wearing it. Kenny mentions Lee, which noticeably upsets Clementine. Sandy tells Kenny that Clementine was the one who put Lee out of his misery. Kenny apologizes, and she tells him that Lee saved her, and it was her fault he had died. Kenny, and Sandy, tell her that she couldn't have prevented it any other way. Sandy questions Kenny on how he even managed to escape from the ally back in Savannah. Kenny tells them both he managed to escape and was all over the place after that, lost. He holed up in some restaurant and was found by Sarita, and they've been together ever since. Kenny asks them what happened during his absence, and Sandy tells Kenny about Christa's death, and getting separated from Omid. Sarita comes over and Kenny formally introduces Sandy and Clementine to her. Luke, Nick, Ryder, and Arnold come back downstairs, and Kenny asks them if they could help him carry some firewood from outside in, which they agree to. Sandy also volunteers to go with them. Carlos and Sarah come downstairs, and Sarita asks Carlos if she could take Sarah to work on the Christmas tree, which he allows. Walter calls Clementine over to the kitchen and asks her how amazing it must be to see Kenny again, which she agrees. Walter mentions another guy in their group, Matthew, who has not yet returned. Sarita gives Sarah a box of decorative objects for the tree and tells her to place them wherever she wants them. Clementine goes upstairs to find Rebecca, Carlos, Alvin, Paige, and Mahiru talking about leaving or staying. Carlos, Paige, and Mahiru are leaning towards leaving while Rebecca wants to stay. Carlos questions Clementine on the lights she saw out by the bridge, and goes downstairs to talk to Walter. Rebecca asks Alvin to go downstairs to get her something to drink, and while he's away, Clementine asks how she's doing. Rebecca confides in her that she does not think she can raise her child, when she can't even take care of herself. Clementine tells her that it's possible, adding that she herself is still alive. Rebecca's baby begins to kick and asks Clementine if she wants to listen, which she agrees to. Rebecca's smile turns into a frown, and she tells Clementine that her baby is definitely not Alvin's, and says he will kill her if he finds out. Clementine tells her Alvin wouldn't do that, and he comes up the stairs with her drink. Mahiru looks over a wooden cross over the mantle over the fireplace and Paige asks her if she believes in the religion, to which Mahiru jokes that she would probably be burning in hell if she did. Paige stands beside her and asks her if it was ever difficult for her before she came out. Mahiru tells her that her parents were very traditional and had a hard time accepting who she was. Paige apologizes for bringing up the topic, but Mahiru assures her she isn't offended and is glad she is there to support her.
Sandy is outside collecting firewood, when Luke stops her and questions her about Kenny. She tells him a short story about her journey with Kenny, adding that he "lost a lot." Luke says he thinks something is off about him, but can't quite come to a conclusion what it is. Sandy asks him not to test Kenny's patience, informing him of his short temper, and to keep his own suspicions to himself. Sandy believes Kenny isn't a bad person, but rash and reckless. Luke apologizes, saying he doesn't want Sandy to think he's going to cause trouble, adding that he wants her to be comfortable around him since she joined his "family". As Luke walks away, Ryder approaches Sandy and offers to help her with her share of the firewood, which Sandy jokingly asks if he's not confident with her because she is a woman. Ryder returns the joke, and asks if things were alright between her and Luke, also hinting if there might be something between them. Sandy says she barely knows Luke and isn't interested in him and asks Ryder why he's interested in knowing that. Ryder jokingly winks and says he wants to take a wife, then tells her he was only curious.
