===Season 9: Life Among Them===
===="Chapter 107"====
The next day, Cordelia interviews Paige, who says that the group is ready to join the community. Cordelia asks how she met everyone, and Paige lies and says she was all by herself for a long time and was rescued by them, and that she's never been much of a fighter and was just happy to be around and asks if there are any jobs that allow her to work within the walls. Meanwhile, the group leaves their house to explore the vibrant neighborhood. Kenny urges Sandy to join them, but she decides to hang back and keep an eye on things. Clementine walks next to Kenny with AJ in her arms, as they walk around. As they're out walking, Kenny loses track of Clementine and AJ. In a panic, he finds a woman named Laurie, who takes him to a nearby house where Clementine and AJ are sitting on the porch with two elderly people who are fawning over AJ. Laurie identifies them as Walt and Jean, whose family comprised five children and twelve grandchildren before the apocalypse, and remarks that AJ will have to put up with a lot of attention since few in New Richmond have seen a baby for a long time. Laurie also suggests that they introduce Clementine to her son, Bobby, who is around Clementine's age. Kenny thanks her for her assistance and asks how she likes living in New Richmond. Laurie tells him that she not been there for super long, but arrived with her husband, Randy, Bobby, and her oldest son Mitch. She instantly waves over a two boys, and introduces Kenny to Mitch and Bobby. Kenny calls Clementine over to meet them. In his bedroom, Bobby introduces Clementine to his friend Julia and suggests they play video games. Clementine can only stare back in disbelief. Bobby apologizes and urges Clementine to take her time adjusting to this new reality. He says it took Julia – another recent addition from outside the walls -- three weeks to open up. Clementine looks curiously at Julia. That night, Kenny tells Luke that his guard is still up. Luke argues there's nothing to be concerned about. "Then why are we both awake?" he asks. Luke tells him that they just need a bit more time to get settled in. Still restless, Kenny takes a nighttime stroll and sees Randy quietly smoking outside his apartment complex. Randy calls out to Kenny, noting that his wife told him they had become acquainted earlier. The next morning, Paige leaves with an apron on and catches the eyes of both Omid and Javier, who ask what she's doing. Paige tells them she was assigned to work in the kitchens — which will allow her to get close to the community members. Sandy walks out and makes fun of her apron, calling her "Mother Hubbard". Paige rolls her eyes, and walks off. Paige makes her way to the gates and walks out to examine the perimeter of the walls. Lars and Ellie, two guards on the wall, watch Paige for a bit before turning their attention away from her. With that opportunity, Paige slips away to look for the gun she stashed away, but discovers that it's missing. During her interview, Mahiru tells Cordelia that they were out there for a long time, and were "almost out there for too long." Mahiru continues by saying she wants to make this place work for herself and her group. Sandy, Luke, and Javier meet with Colton and Kyle, Cordelia's son, to begin their job helping with supply runs. As they carry out a dry run, Kyle explains that they must follow his orders at all times if they want to avoid getting killed by walkers, like his previous team. Kyle and Colton lead the group to a site where they had chained up a walker that killed their former crew. They find that the walker has escaped, but are able to track it down. The walker attacks Luke, prompting Javier to stab it through the head. Kyle yells at Javier for killing his trophy. As they storm back inside the walls, Javier accuses Kyle of incompetence. Kyle takes a swing at Javier and they fight, drawing a crowd of people including the rest of the group, Ethan, Amanda, Leland, Laurie, and Mirabelle. Ethan tries to talk down the two fighting men, while Amanda calls for someone to get Cordelia. Cordelia intervenes and announces that the group are to be treated as equals. She then asks Kenny to be the town's constable and he accepts. At the house, Kenny walks downstairs in his constable uniform and tells Sandy, Luke, Paige, and Omid that it's safe enough to sleep in two houses now. Sandy raises her concern that New Richmond will make them weak if they follow their routines, referencing Kyle's supply running team. "We won't get weak," Kenny assures her. Paige chimes in and says that even if they can't keep up with them, then they'll have to show them how to survive.
