You walk up to the cell. Clementine is beside you. You knock your fingers against the bars to let Glenn and Maggie know you're there.

You: Are we interrupting?

Maggie: No. Glenn and I were just talking about Amicalola Falls.

Glenn: Our anniversary is coming up. We might have to load up that station wagon in case.

You chuckle.

Clementine: So how are you feeling?

Glenn: Better than the last few days....

Glenn then held on to Maggie's hand.

Glenn: I'm very lucky.

You: Well, since you're still recovering, I'll be your delivery boy until you're fully back on your feet. It's about time we switch roles.

Another pizza delivery boy joke. You haven't said one since back on the farm.

Glenn: Haha.

You: Just give a holler.

Glenn nods. You and Clementine go downstairs.

You enter the chow hall and continue conversing with Clementine. You tell her about the Carol situation. Rick also told Daryl not too long ago, they both wanted to tell Tyreese.

Clementine: You think she's gonna be okay out there?

You: Carol is tough. She's a survivor. If there's anybody I believe can live through hell, it's her.

Suddenly, an explosion was heard and the building began to rumble.

You: What the hell?

••

You and Clementine ran outside, where you met up with Rick, Daryl, and Tyreese.

Rick: Everybody get back!

All you kept running towards the gate, where Maggie, Beth, Carl, Sasha, and Bob were. You looked in the distance across the field, and see vehicles in front of the prison gates. A tank is in the middle, with a familiar looking man on top of it.

Governor: Rick! Come down here. We need to talk.

You: It's the Governor....

Rick yells at the Governor from behind the fences.

Rick: It's not up to me. There's a council now. They run this place.

Governor: Is Hershel on the council?

The Governor motions one of his soldiers to bring out Hershel, who's being held hostage. Maggie and Beth look on in horror.

Governor: What about Michonne? She on the council, too?

A soldiers brings out Michonne as well.

Rick: I don't make decisions anymore!

Governor: You're making the decisions today, Rick. Come down here. Let's have that talk.

Rick looks at you. You give a nod. Rick then looks at Carl, and pats him on the shoulder.

Rick: We can do this, all right?

Carl nods.

Daryl opens up the gate, and allows Rick to walk through.

••

Rick continued to talk with the Governor. Back up at the courtyard, you and Daryl hatched the plan of getting people onto the bus and escape if things went bad. You didn't have the numbers to fight his army anymore.

Daryl began to discreetly roll the crate of weapons to each of you. He handed you a handgun, and a rifle. You were surprised to see it was Dale's, the one you kept. You gave a nod as he moved on and handed Clementine an assault rifle.

You began to aim your rifle at them through the gaps in the fence. Clementine was beside you aiming as well.

Clementine: Fuck. This might get bad.

You: Rick's got this. We got this.

••

Meanwhile, Rick had brought up the scenario of bringing in the Governor's people. He told him there was enough room for all of them. The Governor disagreed, as he didn't like the fact of living under the same roof as Rick.

Rick threatens that they will protect their home. Noise will only draw more walkers out and with the fences gone the prison is useless. Furious, the Governor hops off the tank and grabs Michonne's sword. He goes up to the kneeling Hershel and holds it at his neck.

Rick looks around at the soldiers, and points at a lady.

Rick: You. You in the ponytails. Is this what you want?

He then extends his arms.

Rick: Is this what any of you want?

A soldier speaks from on top of a mounted turret.

???: What we want is what you got. Period. Time for you to leave, asshole.

Rick: Look, I fought him before. And after, we took in his old friends. They've become leaders in what we have here.

Rick continues to speak.

Rick: Now you put down your weapons, walk through those gates....you're one of us.

Some of the soldiers began looking at each other.

Rick: We let go of all of it, and nobody dies. Everyone who's alive right now. Everyone who's made it this far. We've all done the worst kinds of things just to stay alive.

The Governor continues to look on at him.

Rick: But we can still come back. We're not too far gone. We get to come back. I know....we all can change.

Hershel smiles after hearing Rick's words. He's the leader everybody expected him to be, and he did what a great leader would do.

The Governor looks at the sword, and begins to think. It seems as if Rick's words had an effect on him. For a second, all the hate in his heart started to fade.

Then the thoughts of Woodbury popped back into his head.

The betrayal of Andrea, Merle, and Milton.

Michonne killing his daughter.

Rick being the reason everything he loved was gone.

The Governor then looked at Rick, and scowled.

Governor: Liar.

He raised the sword and sliced into Hershel's neck.
