What Lies Ahead

[growling,snarling]

Rick: (over the walkie talkie) I guess I'm losing hope that you can hear me. But there's always that chance,isn't there? That slim chance. It's all about slim chances now. I tried to do everything right,keep people safe. I tried,Morgan. I tried. Our group's smaller now. We lost another,day before last. It was her choice. I won't say I blame her,but she lost faith. The CDC was a dead end. I met a man there,a scientist. He told me something. He told me...it doesn't matter. What matters is we're moving on. Atlanta's done. We're gonna try for Fort Fort Benning. We're facing a long hard journey,maybe even harder than I can imagine. But it can't be harder than our journey's been so far. Can it? 125 miles--that's what lies ahead. And I'm trying hard not to lose faith. I can't. If I do,the others...my family,my wife...my son. There's just a few of us now. So we've got to stick together,fight for each other,be willing to lay down our lives for each other if it comes to that

Dale: Son,let's saddle up

Rick: (over the walkie talkie) It's the only chance we've got

[engine starts]

Rick: (over the walkie talkie) Be careful out there,Morgan. I hope you and Duane are okay. Stay off the road. Keep moving. Keep your eyes open. I don't know,just--just be safe. Maybe we'll see you in Fort Benning someday. Rick signing off

Lori: I was just thinking about our trip to the grand canyon with Carl

[laughs]

Carl: I don't remember that

Lori: No,you wouldn't. You were just a baby. Besides,we never made it past Fort Worth

Rick: No,you got sick. I never knew a baby could throw up so much

Carl: Ick

Lori: Yeah,ick. The doctor in Texas said you'd live. Then we turned around and drove home

Carl: That sucks

Lori: No,it was a good trip

Rick: The best

Carl: Can we go see it? The Grand Canyon? I'd like to

Sophia: I would too. Can we go?

Rick: We'd never go without you and your mom. That's a promise

Andrea: Looks complicated

Shane: The trick is getting all these pieces back together the same way. I could clean yours,show you how. Oh yeah. It's a sweet piece

Andrea: It was a gift. From my father. He gave it to me just before Amy and I including Dylan,Grayson and Alexandria took off on our road trip. He said two girls and three kids on their own should be able to defend themselves

Shane: Smart man,your father. Look,it's a--it's a limited capacity. See? Only holds seven rounds

Dale: Oh jeez. Aw no. See a way through?

Glenn: Uh,maybe we should just go back there's an interstate bypass--

Dale: We can't spare the fuel

Glenn:
