## Synopsis

Frank Schmidt is settling into his new “home”. He goes to Wild Bill’s room and leaves the two duffle bags with him. Bill asks where he got them and Schmidt is able to dodge the question. He is planning to leave with Karen to find the others and Bill gives him a very broad and brief description of who could potentially be out there before he departs. He finds Karen and asks her opinion about the situation at hand and also tries to get to know her a little bit. They get to chatting and have a nice little back and forth. Karen hints that there is more conflict than he may think and he tells her to keep that to herself. August, Scarab, Hanez, and Cameron are following the coast. They have been tasked by Julius to find a boat so they can head to the next destination. August speaks with Scarab about the situation, apologizing for all the issues it has caused. She understands he’s saying it out of respect to her but she assures him that anyone who may or may not survive this expedition will not be in vain since they could potentially be saving the world. Wild Bill begins examining the duffle bags and figures out the trick of it before hiding them and heading out on his own task.

Wild Bill is too impatient to wait for Tree so he heads out to find Mr. Q himself. As they are preparing to leave themselves, Schmidt gets into a conversation with one of the soldiers. His name is Reggie and he is really happy to be included in literally anything, joining them on the trip as Schmidt’s sort-of bodyguard. August and the others are still looking for a boat when they stumble upon a Coast Guard Academy. It is completely compromised but it full of Frostz so as long as they stay quiet and watch their step, they’ll be okay. Cameron is not worried about them and messes with one of them. August warns him that they are arguably a bigger threat in this state and leaves him out of the walls to scout while the other three go in.

Schmidt and the others head towards their destination, keeping their eyes open for any survivors. Schmidt attempts to make small talk before he needs to stop short when a Hyena jumps out into the road. Karen mistakenly calls out to him as “Terri” and says it belongs to Roger so They attempt to save him and succeed. One survivor down! Only however many to go. Meanwhile, Bill spots Tree on the road who tries to explain his thought process of walking but Wild Bill cuts him off and gets him in the truck. They arrive at the location and a soldier doesn’t recognize them so he kills the idiot and heads in to speak with Q. August splits off from the other two to find the arms office while Scarab and Hanez find the garage. He is almost blindsided by three Frostz inside but he is able to barely avoid catastrophe. He is able to gather some materials and is informed that the others found the garage before he hears a gun fire over by where he left Cameron.

Wild Bill speaks with Mr. Q about the weapon and he informs him that the weapon fell off the truck while they were being chased. This displeases the man. Luckily Q knows where it is, they’re just waiting for it to be cleared of Zeds. Before they leave however, Mr. Q shows Bill something potentially stronger than the weapon. Schmidt and the others arrive at the Zoo’s parking lot. It is completely overrun, no way of getting in and even less of a chance of getting out. They decide it’s best to return to base. As they leave, A fully covered individual watches them from a nearby tree. August rushes to save the teen and does so, giving him confidence that he didn’t do anything wrong and gets him back to the garage with the others. Hanez is able to get the boat running but the worry is getting through the ice. August is not completely worried since the Ice isn’t that thick so he radios to Julius and the others their location and wait for them to get there. Once they do, August prepares the group to leave and asks the teens one more time if they really want to stick with Franklin or come with them. Cameron and his sister join while the others stick with Frank. The Nox party get on the boat and it starts up, cracking through the ice and hitting the open water.
