With no source of food, Sam becomes desperate, he manages to catch an animal, killing it then feeding upon it. Vanessa wonders how Mohamad knew Sam would be afraid, he explains that Sam told him he drown as a kid, and has been afraid of it since. Mohamad takes Vanessa to an empty cabin, he says he hiked up their one summer, got his forest ranger badge, he was in boyscouts, she says he doesn't strike her as following orders. Mohamad explains that he was different back then, before The Rising. They'll be safe for the night but they must come up with a plan for tomorrow, Mohamad suggests that they follow a trail to the camp but he has no plan after that as he's making it as they go along but he's happy that they're back together. Vanessa wonders if he feels guilt about Sam, Mohamad admits that he does as Sam was a friend, but he was a friend that killed friends, Mohamad explains that Sam has always looked after him, he owes Sam his life.

Not long after he and his sister escaped, they started rolling with a crew, she and a couple others went on a food run but they were captured by Dmitri's guards, he attempted to save them but the feeders were already there, they nearly killed everyone, Mohamad almost bled out, Sam found him and took care of him. Vanessa recalls Sam saying tell the truth, she wants to know what he meant, Mohamad claims that Sam was just trying to save his own life. She explains that there's no way he could've known, they give people the benefit of the doubt, they have to keep trusting, if they don't then they're no better than vampires.

Julius stands out in the woods with Magdalene locked to a firing board, Scab approaches, saying that the buildings are empty, the humans are gone, Julius wants to know how they humans knew they were coming, Magdalene claims that must've been warned. Julius wants to know by who, he points a bow and arrow at her, asking if it was her, explaining that this use to be her home, but she let the humans take over, maybe she's more loyal to them, Magdalene denies all accusations, she claims that one of the vampires that Vanessa turned back into a human, was bitten again by her, but she didn't become a vampire again, she was immune, Magdalene says she knows things and she would do anything. Julius asks would she die for him, after claiming she would, he fires an arrow into her. He then tells Scab to burn all the buildings. As they do so, Theo and Flesh lead the community away, Theo wonders where they go next, Flesh says as far away from Eden as possible.

The next morning, Mohamad is prepared to leave but Vanessa is troubled, she wonders how long it's been since he's been to the camp and how he could be so sure that Sheema is still there. Vanessa feels like she's searching for Dylan without having a plan, her gut is saying that Dylan isn't there, Mohamad can't believe that she's backing out on him, he explains that he can't go traveling thousands of miles to Denver while knowing his sister could be half a day away. Vanessa says she might be or she might not, but it's better than nothing for him. Vanessa says that she could be captured again, and if that happens she'll never get Dylan, Mohamad is disappointed as he thought they were starting to become family, he says if she can't give trust then she doesn't deserve it.

Julius is not afraid, so he will face him, fear is for humans.

Sam finds his way to the cabin, slowly entering but they are already gone.

He says when the time comes, someone has to be within 300 yards for the remote trigger to work, Shemma wonders why they need to take out the electricity, Taka explains that the doors are on a magnetic lock, without power the doors will open. There people will be in before the vampires can realize what happened, Shemma asks how they're suppose to take on all the vampires, Taka says they'll have help, he tells her to just be ready when the time is right.

Mohamad's wound is still bleeding, he makes a joke about not being Vanessa, so his cuts don't heal like magic, he goes on to explain how the children are treated at the camp, they're special to the vampires, they don't have to work hard, they don't get fed on them, but the teens and adults are bled out until they dry. Vanessa suggest that they get everyone out, Mohamad asks her not to get all super hero on him, they have to stick to the plan, that's a fight for another day. Sam jumps off the truck, attacking them both, Mohamad runs as Vanessa tries to fend him off, however, Sam appears to be more skilled and more powerful, as he prepares to feed on Vanessa, he says her blood smells like death, it would turn him back. He finds Mohamad who begs him not to do it, Sam must feed, he says they can still be together if Mohamad allows him to bite him, Mohamad pleads with him not to then Vanessa fires a flare gun at his face, however, he disappears before they finish him.

Vanessa knows that Mohamad hesitated back there with Sam, Mohamad says it was complicated, she tells him to tell that to Cynthia, Roger, and Susan, all of Sam's victims, she believes it would've been justice. Mohamad says that back at the hospital when Brendan was going to banish him, Sam confessed, but everyone thought he was trying to save Mohamad, it was more than that, he blames himself for not seeing it earlier, Sam would've killed Mohamad too eventually, according to Vanessa. They near the camp, Mohamad says it gets real from there on out.

Scab brings Sam to Mama, he found Sam in the woods, burned, hunted and dying. She says not him, it, recently turned, almost feral, demanding that Scab take it out and kill it. She tells Scab not to defy her but he explains that Sam is different, he saw Sam as a human at the hospital with the Woman. Mama allows Sam to feed, she says animal blood is crude and toxic, human blood is far more sufficient, his blindness is leaving him, if she hadn't given him a human to feed on, he would've became a feral. Sam says he now understands, she saved him and in return, he can save her, she sits on his lap, asking to know more about Vanessa, Mama wants to know about her, everyone she turned and Mohamad, he says he'll tell Mama about what she wants to know about Vanessa, but Mohamad is his, however, Mama demands to know everything.

Vanessa is shocked to see that they work for them, Mohamad explains that they're called the Red Brigade, they work for the vampires, they collect the blood, drive the trucks, vampires give collaborators better treatment, Vanessa says they're traitors. She then makes them strip off their uniforms as she and Mohamad will impersonate them

Julius stands to his feet, Dmitri wonders what he plans on doing, killing him, replacing him, he laughs in Julius' face, saying if he wants power come and take it. Julius charges but Dmitri is much more powerful, Dmitri explains that he can end him there but decides not to, saying the Elders till need them to find a answer, resurrect them and allow them to live for a thousand life times, but they can't do that if they’re divided.

Flesh tells Brendan about his people, saying they can work together and that Brendan doesn't have to kill him, however, that's not what Brendan has in mind, he takes Flesh to Taka, who asks for Flesh' help, he asks about Vanessa.

Vanessa steps in a pool of blood as she moves through the building, she finds the slaughterhouse, people wrapped up inside bags call out to her for help, she's mortified. However, before she can assist them, the butcher returns. Vanessa pulls out her Katana, at that moment, the butcher smells her, asking whose there, she attacks him with the blade, but he's too big, chopping at her several times, but missing, however finishing her off with a boot to the face. He places Vanessa on the table, but she manages to fight back, eventually killing the vampire.

Vanessa continues to move throughout the building, she reaches the sleeping quarters, accidentally waking up an elderly woman, Vanessa says she's looking for her daughter, showing the woman a picture but she doesn't recognize Dylan, she was 10 in the picture but she's currently 13. The elderly woman explains that they don't bring children there, only the old and the sick, only the ones they want to bring out, it's a blood farm not a work camp. Vanessa makes her way back to the truck, she sees Mohamad standing in the open, when she goes to approach, Dmitri and his men appear from the darkness, surrounding her, Dmitri says excellent work, he apologizes as he had no choice.
