## **Synopsis**

At the stadium, Benjamin Taylor concludes telling his story about his involvement with the outbreak, leaving William Reynes and Kate Bloodstone speechless. Kate is the first to speak, carefully questioning whether or not a cure was possible. Benjamin reveals to them that he wants to hunt down the men responsible for the outbreak and make them pay--and to do that he was going to travel to his company's headquarters in Denver to gather information. William decides he wants to go with Benjamin to Denver, but Kate convinces him to at least talk to the rest of the group first.

Outside the hunting manor, Jon Matthews, having just heard a gunshot, sees dozens of zombies forcing themselves out of the hedges and onto the property. Meanwhile Ed Anderson hurries to get the RV started, while Randall Forster sprints towards the entrance of the manor itself.

Inside the manor, Austin Kingston stumbles around drunkenly, still clinging onto the gun he'd just fired. Instead of Randall, it's Jon who makes it inside the manor first, slamming the front door behind him just as a group of zombies start banging on it. Jon curses at Austin for his stupidity, before he realizes that they'll need to fight their way out. Austin finds a hatchet, leaving his gun behind. Jon swings open the front doors, and the two men fight off the zombies for a few seconds--before becoming overwhelmed. They rush over to a window, smash it open, and climb through.

Back out in the front of the manor, Ed manages to get the RV working, and he reverses back into some zombies. Meanwhile, Randall becomes surrounded by the horde, and it forced to use his gun to keep them off him, only attracting more zombies. Soon, Jon and a stumbling Austin find Randall, and the three of them hold back the horde for as long as possible. Then, the RV comes speeding up beside them, knocking over a few zombies. Randall and Austin jump inside the vehicle, but Jon remains in the middle of the horde, slashing and hacking away at the horde. Ed is forced to do a loop around the property to avoid getting trapped by the horde. When they circle back to Jon, he calmly climbs onto the ladder near the back of the RV, and Ed speeds away.

Back at the stadium, Edward Remar and Clyde Rollins are standing at the entrance keeping a lookout. Clyde, practicing his swing with a bat, is proud of himself, but Edward thinks Clyde would be better using his pistol. He recalls how Clyde, using his pistol, killed a Rasta that was attacking Edward during the stadium attack. As he's sincerely thanking Clyde for what he did, he mentions how he's never had a friend like him before. Nervously, he's about to ask Clyde something important, but is cut off by a knock at the front doors. Claire Noble, Solomon Reed, and Lloyd Waller are let inside by Clyde. Claire and Clyde admit that they were both worried for each other, and Claire hugs him. Seeing this, Edward immediately leaves the room. Not noticing Edward's exit, Clyde happily tells Claire about how they defeated the Rastas. Afterwards, Claire introduces Lloyd, who is rather quiet and shy. Clyde assures Lloyd that he'll fit in just fine, and then he leads them all out onto the pitch.

On the pitch, William is standing with Rebecca Dawson, who had only just gotten out of bed after her injury. It's revealed that William had already told her about Benjamin's story when she asks if William knows what he's going to tell the rest of the group about Benjamin. Admitting that he doesn't, Rebecca suggests that he tell the whole truth, doubting that anyone will object to leaving Willamette and going to Denver. Clyde comes strolling onto the pitch, leading Claire, Solomon, and Lloyd. When Lloyd sees William, he steps over to him, not believing his eyes. Doing his best not to break down in front of everyone, Lloyd asks to speak with William alone. William beckons the boy off into the cafeteria to talk.

Having safely made it away from the manor, Jon joins the other three inside the RV. For obvious reasons, everyone is angered at Austin for nearly getting them killed. Austin admits his wrongdoing, and is honest when he says that they no longer need to stop at his bar. Jon looks at him, asking him if he even felt sorry, as he hadn't apologized yet. Austin then apologizes, and swears that it won't happen again.

They arrive back at the stadium with the RV sometime later, and promptly exit the vehicle to head inside--all but Austin. Once he's left alone, Austin searches through the cabinets of the RV and discovers more alcohol. Although he had just promised to limit his drinking, Austin caves in to the sight of the alcohol and starts drinking.

In the cafeteria, Lloyd is telling William about the deaths of Kyle Douglass and Bernie Ortan, and how he thinks it was his fault they died. Leaning forward, William assures the boy that it was not his fault, telling him that he knows Lloyd would have fought tooth and nail to protect them if he knew they would die. Lloyd points out it was him calling the shots that led to their deaths, but William tells him that anyone in his position would have made the same calls. Slowly nodding, Lloyd thanks him.

Back out on the pitch, Kate finds Layton Zimmers reading an old newspaper and chuckling away to himself. When he looks up, Layton spies Jared Kellings gazing at Kate, and he whispers to her that he thinks Jared likes her. Awkwardly, Kate says she's going to go find William, and walks off. Jared takes his gaze away when Dean Howards asks him about God. Alex Weiss butts into their conversation to say that there is no God, which, considering their circumstances, Jared agrees with. Jon comes walking out onto the field, immediately going over to sit by Angela Jaegar's grave, while Ed and Randall tell them all about Austin's mistake, but that they were able to exchange their car for an RV.

Across the pitch, Daniel Rockwell, Lolida Windfield, and Isaac Moses are sitting together. The three of them feel like they don't belong with the rest of the group--since they were the ones that imprisoned them here. Daniel wonders if they should go off on their own, and Lolida says he'll follow him wherever he goes. Isaac and Lolida then point out how they're not sure whether they can trust William, as they once thought they could trust Nathaniel Shepard too. When they see William stepping out onto the pitch and most other people gathering around him, they decide to go over and listen. When most of the group is standing in front of William and Benjamin, William begins explaining Benjamin's entire story, and how they plan to go to Denver. Most people are in shock at the revelation, but Layton on the other hand doesn't believe his ears, and believes that all of this was set up by the government. At the end of his speech, William confirms to Daniel and his two friends that they're welcome to join them on their trip to Denver. After sharing a glance at Lolida and Isaac, Daniel agrees to go.

Later that night, Albert Hanson is walking through the parking lot of the stadium when he hears noise coming from the RV. Going inside to investigate, he finds a drunken Austin smashing empty bottles on the floor. Having been told about what happened at the hunting manor, an angered Albert takes the last remaining full alcohol bottle and tosses it outside, upsetting Austin. Albert looks at Austin, and then berates him for going right back to drinking after his foolishness at the manor, referring to him as being worthless to the group. As Albert storms out, Austin collapses back into a chair, frowning.

At the entrance of the stadium, Kate is standing on watch. Marcus Downes enters the room, slowly walking over to her and apologizing. Kate, refusing to even look at him, says it's fine, but Marcus insists that shutting her out was wrong on his part. When Kate still doesn't look at him, Marcus finally tells her that he loves her, which makes Kate turn around. She says it back and then accepts his apology, telling him that she would be here to help him get through everything. Marcus thanks and kisses her.

Back in the stadium, Clyde and Claire are sitting together chatting about what the trip to Denver will be like. Claire confirms to Clyde that she'll be staying with him and the group. Clyde then takes the chance and confesses his liking of Claire. She, in turn, tells him the feeling is mutual. From afar, Edward sees Claire rest her head on Clyde's shoulder. Flustered, he walks away, bumping into Benjamin, who takes note of Edward's agitated appearance. After a brief exchange about Benjamin and his involvement in the outbreak, Edward goes to walk away, but Benjamin stops him by reminding him that it was him who convinced him to stay and fight Badrick. Edward still believes that the plan to go to Denver is stupid, and that he doesn't even want to find a cure. As Edward continues to go, Benjamin asks him what it is besides freedom that he really wants, pointing out how obvious it was that there was something he wanted. With a look of shock on his face, Edward walks out of the room.
