The kids question Morgan’s trip to the power plant. They decide to go back into hiding. 

Dwight and John take up in a bar where a man is dead. He was robbed. Dwight explains that Sherry gave up her ring and everything to save him. “The only reason I’m still alive is because of her,” he says. “I left where I was, when I was sent away, the person who sent me away knew all the shit I done but he knew I loved her. He said, ‘Find her, make it right.’ I need some of your luck John. Even if I can do the first thing, I don’t know if I can do the second or if that’s even possible.”

John finds a secret message from Sherry written on receipt paper. Dwight realizes he has been looking on the wrong road. 

Alicia questions Annie’s choice to leave. Annie remembers their perfect set up before which was overrun by a herd of “growlers” that followed people back. Those people weren’t careful. “There were so many,” she says. “They didn’t look like, I don’t know, regular growlers. They were from the power plant, we just didn’t know it. More showed up but the walls held, at first. The grown ups got all the weapons we had and were ready for a fight. When it looked like the walls were about to give they sent us away.” She took the kids to a hiding spot in the woods. The grown ups never came. She promised to protect everyone so that is what she is doing.

Alicia explains that she understands. “I think about the last thing my mom said to me everyday,” Alicia said. “Just make sure you’re doing what they really asked. Are you surrounding yourself with the dead to protect your brothers or because it’s easier than surrounding yourself with the living?” She gives Annie the keys to supplies and cars and says it’s all up to her now.

John discovers a note in a car. It reveals that Sherry had to kill the man in the diner. “I want you to stop looking for me if you’re still looking,” she writes. “This will be my last letter.” He isn’t sure what to do with it.

Morgan and Grace suit up for the radiation. Morgan finds his pole all wrapped up. “Man who taught me how to use this, he helped me when I thought that death was the only way,” he explains. “Thought if I felt it, if I held the weight of it in my hands, then I’d know what to say to help those kids, to help you, try to show yuo that you are not stuck. It feels like a piece of wood wrapped in plastic.”

She explains she is not stuck and has no choice but to do what she is doing and drives off alone.

Strand is heading in with propellers via hot air balloon. It it a giant Augie Ale bottle from Jim’s brewery. Alicia rushes to show this to the kids but they’re gone. 

Dwight emerges from the house he searched, happy to have found food and supplies. He is optimistic. When he asks John if he found anything in the car, John lies and says there was nothing. 

Strand’s balloon is coming up short of their destination. It lands in the contaminated area. 

Alicia comes across a massive walker road block. She is going to try to cut through it. She and Morgan are both “going in.” Meanwhile, Strand and Charlie are surrounded by walkers.
