The camera pans over the school survivors, everyone is in the cafeteria eating. It first shows Buffy sitting in the corner, then Daniel slowly eating his food still looking sad, then over to Chris and Tisha who are sat next to each other chatting and eating. It then pans to Madison who is sitting down watching everyone slowly very concerned. She goes into her pocket and grabs the note and reads it again.
-End Of Scene-
The camera then pans to the hotel survivors in the car driving down the highway, all looking quite bored, when suddenly the car stops going and quickly grinds to a holt with the hood of the car starting to smoke
Henry: oh for crying out loud what now?
Sue: starting to look like the hotel all over again
The group all get out of the car, Holdyn, Sierra and Sue head to the trunk to get the supplies and weapons while Iris and Henry open the hood of the car to release all the smoke hiding inside, they start looking closely.
Iris: looks like the engines started overheating
Henry: and how would you know, you a mechanic
Iris: no but my dad was, showed me a lot of stuff about cars
Henry: so what do you think
Iris: well looking at other parts, this thing wouldn't even last long anyway
Sue: so looks like we're on foot
Iris: pretty much
Henry: oh come on, surely you can fix it
Iris: even if I could I'd have to wait for the engine to cool down which could take a while
Suddenly they hear a noise, a stray walker is seen walking towards them. Holdyn grabs his gun and shots the walker in the head as it drops to the ground
Holdyn: I don't know about you guys but I'm not being a sitting duck here
Iris: I don't think any of us want that, so what's the plan
Holdyn: why don't you ask Henry, he's the leader
Henry: WELL! I say that we continue walking up the highway, there seems to be a little town up ahead, maybe there's a car with fuel and supplies
Sierra: as long as there is a place to rest I'm cool with it
Henry: Sue you ok to walk
Sue: my ankle is still hurting but I'll manage it
Holdyn: I'll walk with her, if we get into any trouble I'll carry her somewhere safe
Henry: that's what I like to hear, right then go on gang lets move out
Henry leads the team forward as Iris rolls her eyes and looks over at Sierra, Sue and Holdyn just behind them, Sue slightly limping but not too much
-End Of Scene-
Back at the school, everyone is still in the cafeteria relaxing for once. Madison is still quiet and isolated. Tisha and Chris walk up to her
Tisha: hey Madison you ok?
Madison: yeah of course, they looking out for any survivors and herds
Madison notices a stray walker wondering around that she smiles down
Chris: you sure Maddie, only cause last night you seemed scared
Madison: oh yeah no I just fall asleep and woke up worried that something happened
Tisha: uh huh is that so
Madison: yep....
Tisha: Chris, can you check on Daniel and Buffy
Chris: yeah sure I'll leave you too to have some girl chat I guess
Chris walks away and glances over Buffy to check on her as he walks over to Daniel leaving Tisha and Madison to talk
Tisha: come on then, spill the beans what really happened
Madison: I told you what happened
Tisha: Madison, we both know your was a grade A lie, you'd never fall asleep on guard duty, what really happened?
Madison: ok, if I tell you promise this stays between us two for now
Tisha: you have my word
Madison: ok well last night I heard a noise, so I followed it too the back door which had in opened and when I locked and looked around i found a note
Tisha: did you see how or who opened the door? what did the note say?
Madison grabs the note from her pocket and hands it to Tisha:
Tisha: "they made me do it" who is they? This seems weird
Madison: yeah I know, that's why I ran back to the bedroom to see if everyone was there
Tisha: well now it makes sense as to why you were acting weird
Madison: yeah promise you won't tell anyone though, I just don't want everyone panicking incase someone here did it and reacts
Tisha: you have my word, it's just between us two and if it makes you feel any better if I see anyone acting shady, you'll be the first to know
Madison: thank you Tisha, I just want us all to survive
Tisha: of course, we can't have anything or anyone putting us at risk
Madison: agreed
Tisha: well I'll leave you here to get your DSI brain going, just be safe ok
Madison: ok thanks Tisha
Tisha walks back down to the others and looks around, she walks over to Buffy and sits behind her holding her shoulders as Buffy looks around to her smiling. Madison looks over at the other four trying to figure it all out in her head.
-End Of Scene-
Back on the highway, the hotel survivors are making their way on foot to a nearby town. Henry is at the front leading the way with Iris and Sierra while Holdyn and Sue slightly behind them due to Sue's ankle.
Holdyn: are you sure your ok to keep going Sue or do you need a break
Sue: no I'm fine, let's keep going
Holdyn: I just don't want you to make anything worse
Sue: don't worry Holdyn I'll be fine, no need to get motherly on me, it should be the other way round
Holdyn laughs with Sue as they continue walking
Sue: so can I ask a question
Holdyn: go ahead
Sue: Lucia....did she go peacefully
Holdyn: I wish I could say yes
Sue: ok then, did she go heroically
Holdyn: you have my word she did
Sue: then that's ok then
Holdyn: why did you ask?
Sue: because I want to make sure all of us survive but if we don't at least we go heroically
Holdyn: fair enough
Sue: I have another question for you actually
Holdyn: fire away, I have nothing else to talk about
Sue: Sierra, she's a nice girl isn't she
Holdyn: yeah of course I trust her
Sue: I can see that and I can see she likes you
Holdyn: what do you mean
Sue: she likes you Holdyn and but you don't like her the same way
Holdyn: I'm sorry Sue I'm completely lost?
Sue: why are you letting her believe she has a chance with you
Holdyn: WAIT WHAT? Sue I'm not trying to lead her on
Sue: I hope not because right now we need to focus on surviving
Holdyn: yeah I know, but Sue I'd never go for Sierra
Sue: and why not, she's a lovely girl
Holdyn: um Sue, the thing is....
Sue: oh wait, I think I know
Holdyn: you do?
Sue: Holdyn...your gay
Holdyn: .....well that was easier to say than expected
Sue: don't worry, my grandson was gay as well so I'm fine with it, just promise me you'll tell her
Holdyn: yeah of course, I didn't think it was a big deal tbh
Sue: well, looks like I've given you reason too
Suddenly Sue stop walking, she has a pained expression on her face her she bends over slightly
Holdyn: your ankle
Sue: hurting like a bitch
Holdyn: GUYS HOLD UP!
Henry: what's up?
Holdyn: Sue's ankle is really hurting right now, she needs to rest
Iris: well why don't you guys take shelter in those bushes and we will go explore that town and meet you back here
Sue: I am all for that, a little rest will do me good
Holdyn: just stay safe guys ok
Sierra: you as well
Sue: don't worry, we will be fine, Holdyn will look after me, just don't be too long ok
The trio nod as Holdyn and Sue look over a bushy area and take shelter there as the other three currently walking into the town. As they enter the town they look around for any supermarkets or gun stores.
Iris: do you think she will be ok
Henry: who Sue, oh yeah she's a trooper
Iris: well lets see if we can find anything to help her relieve the pain and then get back to her
Sierra: guys it looks like there is a supermarket over there
Henry: lets go check it out, stick close together now
The trio head over to the supermarket quietly with our guns and knives ready.
-End Of Scene-
The camera looks over at Madison in the school as she continues to look over at the others. The camera then pans to Chris and Daniel playing chess
Chris: checkmate
Daniel: Urgh, I seriously don't understand this game
It then pans over to Buffy and Tisha:
Buffy: I need the toilet
Tisha: come on then lets go together
As Tisha and Buffy get up, the camera goes back to Madison so starts thinking in her head.
-Madison's Mind-
Madison: who was it, which one of you wrote it. Easiest option was Buffy but who would make her do stuff like that especially since she hasn't been coping well. Was it Daniel, I mean after Parker died he hasn't been the same, has he made someone get revenge for him. Surely it can't be Tisha, I mean she has been working so hard to keep this group together, is she secretly trying to eliminate the weak ones. Chris, I mean he has been a strong person here but is that only a front to get revenge on all the people who bullied him before this shit went bad. URGH I don't know and I NEED TO KNOW!
Madison starts to close her eyes and get annoyed and hold her head as she start making different scenarios up in her head.
Chris: MADDIE!
Madison suddenly snaps back into reality
Madison: huh?
Chris: Maddie are you ok?
Madison: yeah fine just....umm...
Chris: well you clearly haven't been fine, something been bugging you since last night
Madison: just very one of those days
Daniel: you saw that's what it is
Madison: yeah yeah, I just started thinking about my family and stuff that's all
Chris: well as long as your alright
Daniel: as soppy as I'm about to sound, were all hear for you
Madison: yeah I know thanks guys
Tisha: come on guys, let's give her some space, to relax. Maddie go to bedroom and relax, I'll bring you some food
Madison: ok thanks Tisha
Madison heads down the corridor into the bedroom, while the others go back to what they were doing
Daniel: I hope she's be ok
Tisha: I'm sure she will, she's just got a lot going through her head
Chris: yeah your right, probably hasn't helped that she's barely slept, that might be way she's getting those thoughts
Tisha: I agree, I'll go take some food to her and let her rest, tonight the rest of us will take longer guard shifts so she can fully rest
Tisha starts fixing her up some food while, Chris grabs some water for her and the other sort out other things
-End Of Scene-
The camera pans into an empty and poorly lit supermarket. Henry, Iris and Sierra slowly and quietly enter and close the door behind them.
Henry: ok guys, let's just get what we need and then head back to Sue and Holdyn
Iris: agreed, if anyone finds any antibiotics or ibuprofen, grab it for Sue
Henry: alright lets move
The trio quickly seperate to grab supplies. Henry goes over to the canned food and starts grabbing cans. Iris looks around the medicine section for anything for Sue and grabs a couple of things. Sierra starts gazing around picking up random bits and looking at the labels.
Sierra: damn, and you don't have to look at some for these things to smell their way past due date
Iris: I know, it's almost as bad as rooting corpses...almost though
Henry: guys let's focus and keep looking
They all keep searching as Sierra stumbles across a boarded up door with the words stock room on it
Sierra: hey guys I found the stock room and it looks like people were hiding stuff in there
Iris: looks like it, maybe someone good stuff too
Sierra: what do you suggest we do
Henry: well I mean doesn't look like people are here so might as well open and get what we can
Sierra proceeds to remove the wooden board from the door and turns the doorknob, as she goes a group of walkers burst out and attack the group. Sierra stabs a walker then falls to the ground as one falls onto her and tries attacking her, Iris stabs a couple of walkers while Henry shoots several. Henry looks down at Sierra struggling to push the walker off her
Sierra: GUYS!
Iris: quick Henry shoot it
Henry looks over Sierra as he doesn't move. Iris notices this and grabs runs to Sierra and pulls the walker off her and stabs it quickly. Sierra lays there catching her breath
Sierra: thanks for that
Iris: no problem, no thanks to this idiot
Henry: who do you think your talking too
Iris: you of course, why didn't you shoot it
Henry: I couldn't get a good shot
Iris: I'd believe that if you actually held your gun up
Henry: Oi watch who your talking too
Iris: oh I know exactly who I'm talking too
Sierra: guys, stop! Listen...can you hear that?
The group start to hear car noises coming from outside, they look out to see a couple of cars parking outside the supermarket, I side the car are the men wearing bandanas
Sierra: it can't be
Iris: no it is
Henry: who are they, do you know them
Sierra: no we don't know them, but we've seen them when we were hiding
Henry: well maybe they could help
Sierra: no, they'll probably kill us
Iris: no they will kill us, which is why we need to run now!
The trio quickly run out the back entrance and around the side away from the supermarket, they start moving towards the highway as they hear screams of anger coming from inside the supermarket knowing full well that they accidentally stole from those people again.
-End Of Scene-
Back on the side of the highway Holdyn and Sue are finding out waiting for the other. Holdyn keeps looking over the bushes to see if he can see the others.
Sue: they'll be fine don't worry
Holdyn: I know I just worry, you've seen how I am
Sue: I know but you don't need to panic, they'll be fine
Holdyn sits down next to Sue and looks other at her
Sue: so how are you feeling
Holdyn: I'm feeling fine, just waiting for the others to get back
Sue: they'll be fine, I just wanna make sure your alright
Holdyn: why wouldn't I be?
Sue: well I mean you did tell me something big earlier
Holdyn: yeah I know, but I'm glad I did
Sue: I mean the only thing I can ask is how did you know
Holdyn: oh I've always known for since I was like 12 I knew, I mean I never liked girls, I never found them attractive, but it's something I've never been ashamed cause it's made me who I am
Sue: and so you shouldn't be ashamed because you are a wonderful person, may I ask how your parents were about it
Holdyn: my parent never excepted it, they kicked me out after I came out to them
Sue: I'm so sorry to hear that
Holdyn: oh no don't be, I don't hold any resentment towards, it was something they didn't agree with but I had to move pass it. But I'm here right now surviving and that's all that matter
Sue smiles and hugs Holdyn
Sue: well you have a new family now who love you for you
Holdyn: thanks Sue
The both of the, hug again as they hear footsteps nearby, they look over to see Henry, Iris and Sierra running towards them looking panicked
Holdyn: what's the matter
Henry: we think we may have stolen from another group of survivors who aren't to be messed with
Sue: oh god lord
Iris: yeah so I think we need to hide for a while to make sure we're safe
Sue: right ok then, anyone got a plan
Iris: maybe if we go a little higher up this trail here and hide looking down at the supermarket
Henry: why there?
Iris: because then we can keep an eye on their movement whilst hiding from them. Then when it's safe enough, we can continue the trial down and as it leads down to a school
Henry: that's a really good idea
Iris: thanks I'm use to it
Holdyn: how are yo use to doing it?
Iris: ummm, I wish to hide from my parents and that was my tactic
Holdyn: smart I guess
Henry: right well lets get moving guys, I don't wanna meet them anytime soon
The group pick up Sue and they start climbing up the trail to safety.
-End Of Scene-
Back at the school Madison is in the bedroom sleeping, she starts thinking about the note and all the voices start coming, she wakes up in a state of panic and looks around, suddenly see hears a loud bang come from outside, she walks out and see Chris, Daniel and Tisha running towards her.
Chris: what was that sound
Madison: I don't know I just heard it
Chris: well we have to find out and quick
Daniel: hold up guys where is Buffy
Buffy: IM HERE!
The group turn to see Buffy walking around the corner smiling, she looks back where was going. The group start hearing growls and moans. She looks back at the group and smiles
Chris: Buffy what's that noise
Buffy: my friends
Madison: what have you done
Buffy: they told me to do it
Madison: who told me too
Buffy: they said not to tell you cause you won't understand
Chris: BUFFY WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!
Suddenly the growls get deeper and louder until a herd of walkers appear behind Buffy, the group look on in shock

they were kind about it
glad they all are okay
idk
so she could try and see what they looked like
no
Madison,Sierra,Holdyn,Tisha,Christian
henry
I hope they don't kill Buffy
Thoughts on the episode? I am shaking!! Another great episode!!
Thoughts on Madison showing Tisha the note? I am really not sure about this one. Can Tisha be trusted?
Thoughts on Holdyn revealing his 'secret' to Sue? Sue kinda revealed it without him saying anything :D She is a tough cookie
Why does Sue want Holdyn to let Sierra know about his 'secret'?: Because Holdyn is misleading Sierra and gives her false hopes. She will be better to know the truth even if that will hurt her. I ship them a lot tho.
Thoughts on the school survivors handling Madison's behaviour? I am glad that they are trying to help her even if at least one of them is guilty and I will explain why in the further question.
Thoughts on what happened in the supermarket? I was expecting that there will be a walkers fight and Henry's reaction really didn't surprise me. He is such a coward!
Who are the bandana men? I think that they could be Negan's gang - the saviors :D
Why did Iris want to get an eye on them before they left? I think that she may recognise somebody, maybe her sister is alive who knows hmm
Surprised with who left the note? So actually Madison had a thought about Buffy leaving the note, but It was somebody else who really made her do it and I am sure it wasn't the walkers. I think someone from the group made her do it and I am thinking of Daniel; Tisha; Tisha with Daniel; Tisha with Chris and the worst case scenario - the three of them!
Favourite Character(s)? Madison, Sierra, Iris, Holdyn, Sue and Tisha
Least Favourite Character(s)?: Henry > : (
Any other comments/concerns? Damn 2 episodes until the finale and they gonna be bloody!
Thoughts on the episode? Good episode. I think with this one, it's supposed to be a bit of a cooldown from all the chaos we've had earlier.
Thoughts on Madison showing Tisha the note? Madison needed to because Madison couldn't hide her unrest for long.
Thoughts on Holdyn revealing his 'secret' to Sue? Much like Madison showing Tisha the note, he needed to get his secret out to Sue. Otherwise, it would have caused some really unnecessary cracks.
Why does Sue want Holdyn to let Sierra know about his 'secret'?: She wants Holdyn to remain an honest man. I'd want to to if I was a father figure towards them.
Thoughts on the school survivors handling Madison's behaviour? I think they handled that pretty well.
Thoughts on what happened in the supermarket? I think it's beginning to illustrate why it is Henry's leadership is god-awful. Henry's direction is gonna get people killed.
Who are the bandana men? Like I said before, I believe these people came from Iris' past.
Why did Iris want to get an eye on them before they left? She wants to make sure it was safe to continue onward, so it's smart to have an eye kept on them.
Surprised with who left the note? lol No
Thoughts on the episode? OMG I THOUGHT SUE OR HOLDYN WAS GOING TO DIE WITH ALL THE SCREEN TIME THEY WERE GETTING X_X
Thoughts on Madison showing Tisha the note? Tisha is low-key shady but all the school people seem to be untrustworthy cough cough buffy...
Thoughts on Holdyn revealing his 'secret' to Sue? OMG SUE YOU RUINED THE SURPRISE! I feel like Sue is so tough sometimes that we can never see her vulnerability though...
Why does Sue want Holdyn to let Sierra know about his 'secret'?: So he doesn't lead her on or she gets too attached to him
Thoughts on the school survivors handling Madison's behaviour? It seemed to go alright for now...
Thoughts on what happened in the supermarket? I lit thought someone would die and be Lucia 2.0
Who are the bandana men? I think they are linked to Iris in someway...
Why did Iris want to get an eye on them before they left? TO SEE IF SHE KNEW THEM!
Surprised with who left the note? Not really XD
Favourite Character(s)?: Holdyn and Iris are pretty cool. Buffy is a mess but i LIKE her
Least Favourite Character(s)?:Henry and somewhat Sue now, I'm just not that attached to her
Any other comments/concerns?:
