## Episode Transcript

### Act One

Ben and Harper entered the RV angrily to discuss the recent unfolding of events.

"Listen, I don't know what it will take for you to let us stay, but we can do it." Harper begged Ben to not send them out to their deaths, "Anything."

"There is something, but we need to talk it over." Ben told her, sitting down, "Take a seat."

Harper sent down across from Ben once more, ready to discuss his terms.

"People are dead. A lot of them, including one of your own. But there's one person at fault." Ben looked at Harper in the eyes as he laid his elbows to rest on the table between them, "Lauren. She goes and doesn't come back, or you all leave."

### Act Two

Noah turned to run back to the group, however, was tackled by a walker as soon as he turned around. Almost bitten, he is able to stab the walker in the head to save himself.

"Shit." Noah muttered to himself as he began to run once more back to camp.

The herd of the undead took notice of Noah running and began to follow him straight back to camp, until gunshots in the opposing direction attracted the herd away from Noah and towards the gunshots.

### Act Three

*On the road to anywhere they can find, the group sat exhausted from searching the cars near them for gas.*

*"We've been here for days. I am honestly going to freak out." Candace told the group, exhausted from searching for gas.*

*"We'll find something at some point. There has to be a gas station nearby, there's no way there isn't." Harper responded, exhausted from the journey, as well.*

*"I think I know a place nearby," Ross told the group, "It should have gas. I used to work in the area, there's a shit load of gas stations."*

*"Where? I'm desperate at this point." Candace asked him.*

*"Exit 285, it's just that way a few miles away."*

### Act Four

"This is bad." Matt told Ramona, his fist in his hand, holding it up to his face.

"We're fucked if Harper can't talk him out of kicking us out. It's this shit all over again, I'm sick of it." Ramona responded, putting her face in her hands.

"I trust Harper. She knows how to talk and can talk him into letting us stay." Riley told them, "Have some faith."

"Don't act like anything is at risk for you, Riley. He's gonna let you and Declan stay no matter what." Matt told off Riley.

"Really? You think me and Dec would stay here and just ditch you guys? Yeah, I've been with these guys a few months, but I'm not going to leave Harper and Kari and Jason. We've been through too much together for me to just do that." Riley told Matt, who just stared off into space, "That's all I gotta say."

### Act Five

"Look, I don't like abandoning someone or kicking them out, but she's been a problem. Petra. Larry. Even her own brother are dead because of her." Ben told Harper, who was biting her fingernails.

"She lost her brother, like you said. She has suffered enough, please don't do this." Harper begged.

"You send her out, or she leaves anyway with all of you."

"Fuck." Harper sat back in her seat and dug her face in her hands, "I know what I wanna do."

### Act Six

*"Are you sure it's the best idea that only me and you go looking for this place?" Harper asked Ross as they walked down the highway to reach Exit 285.*

*"Oh, yeah. Too many of us and we'll get jumped easily. We need to stay quiet and quick and get this over with fast." Ross responded, smiling at her.*

*"That's not why you wanted to be alone..." Harper asked him, reciprocating his smile.*

*"Maybe..." Ross looked at her and began kissing her.*

*"Stop. Now isn't the time." Harper stopped smiling, and began walking away towards the Exit a few miles away.*

*"Alright." Ross chuckled.*

### Act Seven

Noah hid behind a tree as more walkers appeared, still following him despite the gunshots. He checked the ammunition count on his weapon, before someone emerged from behind him.

Rebel.

"What the fuck is going on?" Rebel asked him, hiding alongside him being the gigantic tree.

"Walkers. A whole shit load of them." Noah answered her, as he looked behind them, "Shit!"

A couple of walkers noticed Noah looking at them and began pursuing. The two ran towards camp, before being stuck against a tree as walkers emerged from two directions.

"We're fucked." Rebel screamed, before Noah grabbed her and boosted her up the tree.

"Not yet." Noah began climbing up the tree, as he became out of range from being bitten, the swarm of walkers grabbed him by the leg, attempting to pull him down and devour him, "FUCK!"

"Grab my hand!" Rebel yelled, grabbing Noah's hand to pull him up. She wasn't strong enough, and Noah fell, however, was able to lunge himself away from the swarm and was able to run away from the herd.

### Act Eight

"You okay buddy?" Kari asked Jason, who was alone in his tent trying to nap.

"I'm fine, Dad. Where's Cheryl?" Jason responded.

"She's with Fred, they're checking inventory. They're, uh...also listening..."

"I don't care. If we have to leave this place, it's whatever. These people are fucking crazy."

"Watch your damn mouth." Kari shook his head at his son, who just shrugged it off.

"Hey." Cheryl entered the tent, and Jason got up to greet her.

"What's up?" Jason asked her.

"Me and Fred heard Harper and Ben talking. Ben wants Lauren gone, or we have to leave." Cheryl told them, crossing her arms and frowning.

"Hell no. That's bullshit." Kari told her.

"That's what I said. But it's our only chance to stay."

### Act Nine

"What the fuck were you thinking, you dumbass?" Avery yelled at Robbie, while Lexie was in the other tent, sleeping, "How the fuck could you do that?"

"I was thinking something had to be done about Lauren. I didn't wanna fucking kill her, I just wanted her to leave. She needs to go." Robbie answered, not looking at Avery.

"What you did was fucking stupid. And Larry is dead now because of it."

"Because of me? I didn't fucking stab him." Robbie stood up, getting in Avery's face.

"You might as well have." Avery walked away to see Lexie.

Later, in Lexie's tent, Avery comforted her.

"He didn't. He didn't want to kill her, right?" Lexie asked, her head in Avery's shoulder.

"No. He didn't. He just wanted her gone." Avery told her, rubbing her head gently.

"He didn't. He didn't. He didn't want her dead." Lexie sobbed.

### Act Ten

"Fred, they want us to go get Larry's body. They left him in the woods, and want us to get him." Brandon told Fred, with Renee and Declan beside him.

"Alright. Let's go get him." Fred began walking with the group to go find Larry's body.

"He didn't deserve this, y'know? He was panicking." Renee told them.

"What he did, trying to kill Lauren, that wasn't panicking. That was just bullshit." Declan responded, shaking his head.

"Either way. He shouldn't have to die for it."

"It was him or Lauren. I know who I'd save." Declan approached where Larry died, however, his body was missing.

"What the fuck?" Fred asked, looking around for Larry's body.

"He's gone...?" Renee looked alongside the rest of them, not knowing what became of Larry's body.

Off in the distance, Larry's reanimated body joined up with the herd stalking Rebel and Noah.

### Act Eleven

Rebel cried atop the tree, before she was able to jump off the tree and onto a crashed car on the ground, still out of reach from the walkers below. She looked around for Noah, however, was unable to see him anywhere, other than a few stray walkers following the direction he ran off to, away from camp.

Rebel began running towards camp, the herd right behind her, following.

She saw the camp and smiled.

### Act Twelve

"WALKERS!" Ramona yelled out as the herd reached the camp.

Brandon, Renee, Fred, and Declan returned, and they began opening fire on the herd alongside the rest of the group.

Rebel emerged from the woods, attempting to pull out her gun before a stray bullet hit her in the chest, her falling to the ground.

The rest of the group kept shooting, as Lexie noticed a walker approaching her. She pulled her knife out, before realizing who it was. The reanimated Larry, blood dripping from his stomach, approached Lexie.

She began crying, and walked into him to hug him, as he bit into her neck, ripping her throat out. She fell to the ground, dead, as Larry continued devouring her body.

### Act Thirteen

Piper screamed, running from a walker, as another tackled her onto the ground. Ramona shot the walkers in the head, saving Piper before she could be bitten.

"Oh shit..." Lauren muttered, as she returned to camp from a stroll through the woods. She began shooting at the second herd in a few days, defending the camp.

The group fired on the herd, before eventually taking it out almost completely.

It seemingly had reinforcements, as the group had to retreat to their cars.

"FUCK! WE NEED TO GO." Ben screamed to the group, entering the RV alongside Harper, Riley, Jason, Matt, Piper, Lauren, and Brandon. They drove away onto the road, abandoning the camp.

### Act Fourteen

*"Look, there's someone over there." Harper told Ross as they noticed a person, alone.*

*"Could be a walker." Ross told her.*

*"Doesn't look like it..." Harper responded, "HEY!"*

*She yelled out at the person, who began walking over to them.*

*"What the fuck...?" Ross went for his gun, however, the man jumped at him and punched him the face, taking his gun, and aiming it at Harper.*

*"What shit do you got?" The man asked them, threatening to shoot them if they didn't comply.*

*"Nothing on us..." Ross told him, before jumping at him, grabbing the gun. Despite this, the man fired, hitting Ross in the stomach.*

*Harper shoved the man, knocking him to the ground. The man attempted to fight back, however, Ross kicked him from the ground, knocking the man's head on a car, killing him.*

*"Oh shit." Harper looked at Ross's stomach.*

### Act Fifteen

"Are you guys okay?!" Matt asked the group in the RV as they drove off, abandoning the camp behind them.

"Yeah...we're good." Lauren answered, recuperating from what occurred.

"Where's my dad? And the others?" Jason asked.

"I uh....I saw Renee get Avery, Robbie, and Cheryl in her car." Brandon told them.

"I saw Declan running towards the SUV, I don't know if he made it." Lauren told the group.

"He made it. I saw. Ramona and Kari were with him." Ben told them from the steering wheel.

"Fred was with them, too." Piper told them, crying.

"Fuck..." Harper muttered, "We're not going to find them, are we?"

### Act Sixteen

About thirty minutes later, Riley and Harper were sitting at the back of the RV talking, as the RV sat stationary near the camp, waiting for any other survivors at the rendezvous location.

"I can't believe we did find each other again." Riley told Harper.

"What good is it worth? We're all lost again. Just like with you being lost, and Candace and Ross..." Harper responded.

"Declan never told me what happened to them." Riley told her.

"Candace was with us when we found the other group...she got killed by a bunch of walkers. I had to shoot her." Harper responded, wiping tears from her eyes.

"And what about Ross?" Riley asked her.

"He saved me." Harper told her, smiling, "He saved me. But he didn't make it."

### Act Seventeen

The camp was completely overrun, no signs of life. Anyone that remained was dead.

Walkers, including Larry, devoured Lexie's body. She was lost. Rebel attempted to crawl away after a stray bullet hit her, however, she was unable to escape, and was devoured. No other confirmed casualties, other than a bite reaching someone.

The RV survivors remained still, waiting for their friends to return. And someone was bitten in their group. They sat alone, looking at their bite. Piper whimpered as she realized she was bitten.

## Trivia

* Last appearance of Rebel.
* Last appearance of Lexie.
* Last appearance of Larry. *(Zombified)*
* The chapter title refers to the flashback group being the lost, unable to move and stuck on the highway, and the present group being the damned, sitting unknowingly while a herd reaches them slowly, and instead of focusing on the walker threat, they focus on the threats within their collective group.
* This chapter reveals that during the two month time skip in the flashbacks, Ross and Harper formed a romantic relationship.
* This chapter is the first time Ross is mentioned in the present time.
	+ The reasoning behind this is due to Harper being traumatized from his death, leading her to attempt to forget about him until Riley brings him up.
