===Season 6: In Harm's Way===
===="Chapter 67"====
In the morning, Troy kicks Sandy to wake her up. Sandy angrily tells him off, to which he aggressively fires back at her. Everyone piles at the gate, where Carver arrives, with Troy, Tavia, and another guard standing watch. He will go on to explain the herd situation, giving a status update and a heads-up to be mindful when outside the walls. Carver mentions that while the group may be sore over the previous night's events, it is in the past and that they must move forward. He goes on to state that whether the survivors are new to the community, or members who have gone astray, they can all find redemption through hard labor, proving their worth once more. Carver tells Reggie that he is nearly back into the group, and will be welcomed back with open arms if he continues to keep up the good work. Carver then begins to give each survivor their assignments for the day. As he speaks, Sarah tries to chat with Clementine, who tells Sarah she should be quiet in case Carver hears her. However, she continues speaking and a visibly irritated Carver shouts at Carlos, telling him that his daughter is being disrespectful. Carlos tells Sarah to apologize to Carver, but he is unsatisfied with a simple apology; he demands that Carlos 'discipline' her. Carlos asks what he means, and Carver proposes that he smacks Sarah for her improper behavior. Initially hesitant, Carlos attempts to avoid having to hit his own daughter, but Carver threatens him by saying if Carlos doesn't do it, he'll have Troy hit her instead, implying his treatment to be much worse in comparison. With no other option, Carlos regretfully turns to Sarah, who is desperately apologizing to him. He tells her that it will only hurt for a moment, and pauses for a brief moment before Carver tells him to do it. After smacking Sarah, Carlos tearfully states in a soft voice that he is sorry, but Carver refuses to let him continue to coddle Sarah, and let her understand the consequences of her actions. Mahiru comments that the order was uncalled for. Carver asks her what she would have done differently and if she would like for Troy to demonstrate. Mahiru attempts to call his bluff, but she is talked out of it by Paige and Ryder. Afterward, the group is ordered to get to work with chores. Tavia orders Clementine to go see Bonnie, implying that she has some work for Clementine. Bonnie finds Clementine and leads her to the armory. Bonnie is stopped by Shel and her sister Becca, a member and worker there, about the food stocks. While Bonnie is talking to Shel, Clementine looks around the compound. A guard named Russell tells her that she should go with Bonnie, since Carver does not like "idle hands." After reaching the armory, Bonnie tells her that she is loading weapon magazines. Clementine quickly and instinctively begins loading the bullets along with Bonnie. Bonnie attempts to apologize about lying to Clementine, Kenny, and Walter when she was caught back at the lodge. She says she never thought strangers would be so kind to her. After apologizing, Bonnie mentions that she had planned to leave when Luke and the rest of the cabin survivors decided to escape the compound. She ultimately decided to stay, justifying that it would be easier to stay in the community and try to fix its problems, rather than escape to begin all over again, as she claims Carver used to be a different person, and that she was sure that he would be able to come around. Tavia calls on the walkie-talkie, asking if Clementine is still with her, as she has another job for her to do. Bonnie then gives Clementine a jacket which she found back at the lodge as a small present. Bonnie brags on her jacket, saying that everyone is gonna want it, when Tavia walks in, commenting that the jacket is "ugly." Tavia guides Clementine back out, and tells her she'll be working in the kitchen now. Outside, Sandy is shown working on the roof, just as she had hoped. She overhears Javier talking to Wyatt, a guard, about a herd that is passing through soon, and that it is huge. Sandy stops her work, and goes over to ask them about the details of the herd. Wyatt tells her that at least over a hundred walkers are seen in the mix, maybe more, and they'll be cutting very close by the community soon. Radio chatter forces Wyatt to leave and Javier introduces himself to Sandy, and apologies for not introducing himself last night. She asks him how long he's been here, to which he reveals that he hasn't been here for too long and attempted to leave at one point, but that he was "asked nicely" to stay with a clear sarcastic tone. Sandy isn't surprised and believes the community in its entirety feels like a prison with forced labor, which Javier agrees. A guard signals over Javier and tells him he needs to get down to the expansion to help work on it. Once Javier says his goodbye and walks away, Sandy goes back to look at the pulley. She breaks the chain on it, and lowers it into the pen, hoping to possibly use it one night. Troy comes up and tells her that she's going to be put on sniping duty, and asks her if she knows how to shoot a gun. Sandy ignores him and walks past him toward the door, earning a "bitch" comment from Troy. Back inside the warehouse, Paige, Kenny, and Mahiru are assigned to work with Shel with the food stocks. Paige asks Mahiru if she slept okay, and she says that she did and whispers under her breath that she really wanted to do something to stop what Carver made Carlos do. Paige agrees, but tells her that he has the advantage over them right now and there isn't much they can do, and to wait for an opening. Kenny chimes in and says that he'll make sure everyone gets out. Troy immediately comes over to Kenny and tells him to get over to the new expansion to help the other workers with it. After Kenny leaves, Shel tells Paige and Mahiru that she'll go get one of the other new recruits that was allowed to fully join their community so they can get to know him and feel better about being here. A man walks in the room as Shel is talking to them and interrupts herself to introduce the man to them; Omid.
===="Chapter 68"====
As walkers begin to form outside Howe's Hardware, snipers silently take out a few of them on the rooftops. Troy leads Sandy up to the roof with some of the others and tells her to report to Hank, who commands the snipers on duty, and leaves to go back down. Sandy looks around the surrounding area to see dozens and dozens of corpses polluting the streets, and several more walkers still roaming the parking lot. Ryder attempts to fire at one of them, but misses his shots, prompting Hank to chastise him and if he doesn't shape up, he'll be put out to the pasture. Ryder explains that he's never been good with guns and took out walkers at a close range, but he is quickly shut down by Hank who tells him he needs to adapt if he's going to live in their community. Hank notices Sandy and introduces himself and his crew and hopes that she's a better shot than Ryder. Sandy confidently asks him how he's so sure she won't turn the gun on him, to which he laughs and tells her that his crew wouldn't let her have the chance to do so. After she's handed a gun, she effortlessly snipes several walkers with no hesitation, which impresses Hank. Hank belittles Ryder saying that "a woman is doing a man's job better", which Sandy rebuffs his sexist comment, much to Hank's annoyance. As Hank walks away to check on some of the others, Ryder apologizes to her about Hank's comment and says he doesn't agree with his belief. Sandy tells him not to worry about it and that she welcomes sexism from men so she can prove to them how wrong they are. Ryder smirks and says that she's a very strong woman and he admires that about her. Sandy smiles and thanks him, adding that he's a pretty special guy himself. Ryder smiles back and they stare at each other for a bit, until Hank comes back over and orders them to continue thinning the walkers out, adding that they need to clear most of them out before the big herd comes through. Inside the storage unit, Paige and Mahiru meet Omid, who is revealed to be alive and has earned his way into the community without supervision, and tells them that Carver's community is the safest one he's ever been apart of and despite his authoritarian presence, he's really looking out for everyone and wants to make sure people are safe. Shel agrees with him and assures Paige and Mahiru that they'll come around and see it for themselves. Carver stops by to check on the "new recruits" and overhears Omid talking about his community and proudly agrees with Omid, and that if they shape up as well as Omid has, they'll be welcomed with open arms just like he was. Carver then leaves with Shel beside him and Omid's friendly face goes sullen. Omid tells Paige and Mahiru that what he said was just to please them and not what he truly thinks. He goes on by saying his people found him and brought him back here as manual labor for his "community" and not to expect things to turn out as great as he described. Paige questions him why he doesn't just leave, and he tells her that he "has nothing left" so there's nowhere else to go but to just accept it and do what he's told. Mahiru disagrees with his mindset and believes that there are better communities out there that don't force people with physical harm, kidnap or murder to do things. Omid doesn't respond to her but tells them to play their part if they don't want to end up like the people who did resist, and then leaves the room. Mahiru questions whether or not Kenny's plan on escaping will work. Paige assures her that even if Kenny dies, she'll make sure they escape. Outside in the woods, Luke peers out from behind the trees, overlooking Howe's Hardware. Luke thinks to himself how he's going to get himself inside without being caught, taking notice of the snipers taking out the walkers near the building. He notices the pile of cars that are parked specifically to block part of the road leading to the building and decides to walk down to them to keep hidden. As he makes his way there, a walker trapped underneath one of the cars grabs his leg and pulls him down. Luke struggles against the walker until he manages to kill it with his machete. A few guards signal that something made noise where Luke is and he quickly tries to hide underneath one of the cars as a few people walk over to the area. They find nothing and go back inside, casually talking about the new recruits. Luke notices their attention is preoccupied on each others conversation so he shadows them and sneaks inside the community without them noticing before they close the doors.
