## Plot

The episode starts with walkers pounding against the doors of the shed that Clementine and Nick are located in. Nick blocks the door of the shed with a crate, and Clementine begins to search around. After moving a large piece of plywood Clementine discovers some jars, to which Nick identifies are filled with whiskey. The two spend the night inside, but Clementine is awoken by Nick throwing the jars at the walls. After a brief conversation and an offer to have a drink, Clementine and Nick leave to find the cabin. Nick distracts walkers so Clementine can escape.

After Clementine reaches the cabin, she meets Carlos and Rebecca sitting at the dining room table. They ask where Luke and Alvin are, revealing they left looking for them. Clementine relays that Pete had been bitten, which horrifies the two adults. After the two gather guns, Carlos asks Clementine to look after Sarah while they're out. Clementine watches them leave and goes up to Sarah's room. When Clementine opens Sarah's door, she surprises Clementine by taking a picture of her when she opens the door. After a conversation, and Clementine taking a picture of Sarah, Sarah reveals she also found a gun underneath the cabin. After pointing it around and being taught how to use it by Clementine, she sees who she thinks is Luke outside approaching the cabin and goes downstairs to meet him. However, she's quick to realize that it's not Luke, but someone else she knows, and is beset by a panic attack. Clementine goes to the door while Sarah is frozen in fright.

After Clementine tries to lock the door, the man enters the cabin and begins to ask Clementine questions. The man snoops around the cabin, looking for any clues as to the inhabitants of the secluded cabin, asks about the group Clementine is currently staying with while trying to avoid some of Clementine's questions, and after he believes he hears something upstairs, he goes to check it out. He goes up to Sarah's room where she is hiding under the bed, nearly being caught. The man, however, does not look there and apologizes for intruding. Before he leaves, the man discovers a picture of Sarah on the floor, which she had taken earlier, and smiles as he realizes his search has come to an end. He also tells Clementine that she has no idea who her people are. Clementine continues pretending that she doesn't know what he is talking about, but soon after, the man tells Clementine not to trust the cabin group before leaving.

Carlos, Rebecca, Luke and Alvin enter from the kitchen entrance where Clementine and Sarah tell them a man had been to the cabin. Rebecca and Carlos heavily question Clementine about the identity of the intruder. Sarah then reveals that the intruder saw the picture of her. At this point Clementine takes the blame for this, but Sarah in turn defends her and tells Carlos that she wanted Clementine to take a picture of her. The group believe it was Carver looking for them. Luke and Carlos tell the group they will have to pack up and leave for the north, which they quickly tend to and depart on the journey.

Along the way, Rebecca speaks with Clementine apologizing for her antagonistic behavior, and begins speaking to her in a nicer tone, but the group eventually comes across where Clementine was last with Nick. They find him inside the small shed alive and well. Nick lags behind the rest of the group on their walk in a state of depression. They continue on their way, and five days later, the group rests along a wide river while Clementine spies a large lodge and a bridge.

Clementine and Luke go to clear the path on the bridge and proceed to kill a few walkers, with Luke nearly falling off into the river. After nearly crossing, the duo come across a man with a rifle who proceeds to ask questions. The man lowers his guard believing they are friendly and offers them food, until Nick comes up from far behind believing the man would kill Clementine and Luke. Despite Clementine and Luke's efforts to stop Nick, he shoots the man in the neck and he falls into the river.

The rest of the group crosses the bridge and Alvin asks Clementine to search a small house for any food for Rebecca, who insists she is fine. After searching the house, Clementine comes across a hunting knife with which she pries open a chest with canned food in it. Alvin walks in and asks for the food for Rebecca and to keep the knowledge of said food quiet from everyone else. After the conversation is over, everyone notices a small herd of walkers crossing the bridge and they leave for the large lodge they previously saw.

The group reaches a ski resort and notices it is somewhat reinforced. After Clementine checks the view in case of any followers, she finds some lights flashing near the forest and the bridge. She notices the group is being confronted by the inhabitants of the lodge. She goes through the group to find Kenny, still alive, along with his new girlfriend Sarita and his friend Walter. The dispute is instantly settled after they see Clementine and Kenny reuniting.

After catching up with Kenny, helping Sarita and Sarah hang up some Christmas ornaments, talking to Walter about dinner and talking with Rebecca about her baby, dinner is served where Clementine decides to eat with the cabin group. The group then begins to talk about the lodge residents, specifically Luke and Nick. Eventually, Kenny sits at the cabin's table and they begin to talk and argue. After it's over, Kenny accidentally calls Clementine "Duck" and gets visibly upset. Walter asks Clementine if she could help him outside.

Walter begins to speak with Clementine outside on how he believes the world is still salvageable and speaks of his partner, Matthew. After Kenny joins the duo, they see a woman peering into the resort. They wonder if she is trustworthy, and Walter ends up giving her a large box of food to help feed her "family." Going back inside, Luke tells Clementine that the man on the bridge was Walter's partner, Matthew, and it would be best for her to not tell Nick or Walter. Nick walks up and discovers who the man he killed was after Clementine decides to show him, but Luke takes Nick away to have a drink before telling Clementine to retrieve the knife she found from her backpack, presuming it was Matthew's. When she goes to take it, Clementine finds it missing and that Walter has it and is standing on the porch inspecting it. Clementine speaks with him where he asks how Matthew died and if Nick is a good man or not. Clementine tells him that he is a good man and that he saved her life. Nick eventually walks up to them, and Walter begins breaking down, asking for Nick to tell him what happened. Walter throws the knife away and the windmill begins to spin rapidly due to the storm, making a loud sound that would lure in walkers.

Kenny, Luke, Carlos, Walter, Sarita, Nick and Clementine go to stop the windmill and fend off the walkers it might lure. Kenny and Luke go to check on the transformer, which had just blown, as Clementine fixes the windmill with the others covering her. After picking off a few walkers, Nick struggles with a walker. Walter shoots the walker and saves him. After Clementine runs inside, the others hear machine-gun fire as a small group walks out from the woods and finishes off the walkers with assault rifles. This group consists of the man who entered the cabin, the woman looking into the resort and two other men, Johnny and Troy. The man is identified as Carver by Carlos, who the former begins to beat. Sarah runs outside to protect her father from harm. Carver orders the group to go inside where he puts everyone on the ground ready for execution. Alvin, Clementine and Rebecca speak of what they should do. They decide that Clementine should sneak out and find Kenny and Luke, while Rebecca and Alvin remain hidden. After escaping, Clementine finds Kenny with a rifle trying to save the group while Carver continues to torture Carlos. He successfully kills Johnny but Carver then executes Walter in retaliation. Kenny cries out and fires more, still missing his shots. Carver picks Alvin up and Clementine tells Kenny to surrender.

Afterwards, Luke is still not present and Carver assumes he ran to save himself. He then orders his remaining people to take the survivors "home", then the episode ends.
