They try to reason with her by saying the satellite's fire would've burnt her land. Alpha, however, says that they crossed her line three times and names each of them. She tells them they must be punished but decides that there will be no bloodshed. Instead, Alpha demands more land. Carol stands up to her but Alpha insists she should fear her. Carol does not fear her and tries to shoot her. Michonne stops her and asks for forgiveness. Alpha gives it, "mother to mother."

At the school, Daryl talks to Carol about his dad. "He was a trucker. He used to tell Merle and I these crazy stories about his trips. This one time, he was flying through Kentucky on I-66 and it's pitch black outside, He sees this girl on the side of the road, looks like she's crying. As he gets closer, this girl steps right out onto the freeway right in front of his truck. He slams on the brakes, calls the local PD. Gets out and goes lookin' for her. She ain't there. He looks under the cab, nothing. Under the tires, nope. She's not around. Looked in the grill, no blood. Nothing. There was no girl. My dad didn't sleep much, either. Sometimes he'd stay up 24 hours just to make one of his runs. You stay up that long, you start seeing things."
Carol says she is not a "meth-snorting truck driver like y-- like you dad. Sorry." Daryl says she is right but it doesn't mean he is wrong. Carol's alarm goes off and she goes to take her meds but Daryl asks her not to.
