You were talking with Jacqui and Carl when Amy and Andrea showed up with lines of fish they caught.

You: God damn! Since when did we recruit Captain Long John Silver?

Amy chuckled at your remark.

Morales: Ladies....because of you my children will eat tonight. Thank you.

Andrea: Thank Dale, it was his gear and canoe.

Lori: Where did you girls learn to do that?

Amy: Our dad.

Carl: Can you teach me?

Amy: Sure. I'll teach you all about nail knots and stuff.

Amy looks at Lori.

Amy: If that's okay?

Lori: You won't catch me arguing.

You tap Carl's shoulder.

You: Maybe you and I can go see who can catch the most?

Carl: You know how to fish?

You: I've been fishing a couple times....my uncle used to take me.

Clementine overhears the conversation and walks up to the both of you.

Clementine: My dad used to take me boating out in Savannah. I know a few things too.

Andrea: At this point we might as well be having fish everyday.

Dale started walking up to the camp.

Andrea: Hey, Dale? When's the last time you oiled those line reels? They are a disgrace.

Dale looked upset.

Dale: I, uh....I don't want to alarm anyone, but we may have a bit of a problem.

Dale then looked back and pointed over the hill, where we saw a fatigued Jim shoveling into dirt.

••

Most of the group took the trek up the hill to meet with Jim. He was still shoveling into the earth.

Shane: Hey, Jim. Why don't you hold up for a bit? Just give me a second here, please.

Jim stopped shoveling.

Jim: What do you want?

Morales tells Jim that he's been shoveling for hours. Shane asks him why he's shoveling, in which Jim tells them not to worry.

Dale: It's 100 degrees today. You can't keep this up.

Jim: Sure I can. Watch me.

Lori walks closer to Jim.

Lori: Look, nobody is going to say it so I will. You're scaring people. You're scaring my son and Carol's daughter.

Jim: They got nothing to be scared about. I mean, what the hell people? Why don't you just go on back to camp?

Shane tells Jim to take a break and even offers to help him dig later. Ultimately, Shane asks for Jim's shovel and even threatens to take it from him.

Jim: If I don't then what? You're gonna sic your boy Y/N at me and have him beat me? Like he did Ed Peletier?

You hear what Jim said about you.

You: Jim....come on, man.

Shane: That was different, Jim.

Amy: You weren't there. Ed was out of control! He was beating his wife!

Jim: That is their marriage!

Jim points at you.

Jim: That was not his situation to get into.

You: Come on, Jim. I've known you for over a month. You aren't like this.

You start walking towards him.

You: Give me the shovel, Jim.

Jim starts to back away.

Jim: No....no....

You: Come on, bud. Just give-

Jim pushes you away and hits you across the face with the shovel. You land on the ground.

Clementine: Y/N!

She runs over to you along with Dale.

Shane tackles Jim.

Jim: You got no right!

Shane: Hey Jim! Hey hey hey hey calm down, alright? Everything's going to be fine.

He starts cuffing Jim.

Jim: That's the biggest lie there is....I told that to my wife and my two boys. It didn't matter. Dozens of them came out of nowhere....and just took them right out of my hands.

Jim starts to think of what he just did to you.

Jim: I'm sorry, son.....I'm sorry.

You're on the ground, still holding your face. The impact caused a cut on your head and it bled.

Dale: Jacqui! Go bring me some bandages will you?

She nods, and runs back to camp.

Clementine: Hey, Y/N? You there?

You're dazed a bit, but you see Clementine and Dale.

You: I'm fine....never thought I'd get hit with a shovel though. I've only seen it in cartoons.

Clementine laughs, and you smile. You had to make light of the situation.

••

It's been a few hours since the Jim incident. The group was preparing for dinner that included the fish Andrea and Amy caught. You walked with Carl and Shane to talk with Jim, who was tied to a tree.

Shane: Hey, Jim. How you feeling, man?

Jim: I'm better. More myself now.

Shane: I hope you understand the need for this....timeout. I've got others I've got to think about. I just want to make sure there's no hard feelings?

Jim: There's not. I do understand.

Jim then looks at you.

Jim: Hey, son. I'm sorry about everything. I'm sorry for hurting you.

You had a bandage on the cut from the hit.

You: No hard feelings, Jim. I'm thankful I got to keep my teeth.

Jim chuckled a bit.

Shane: Why don't you come join in with the rest of us? Big 'ol fish fry.

Jim looks at you, then at Carl.

Jim: I'd like that very much.

••

You were eating fish from your plate. Dale was just finishing up a story about his watch and time.

Dale: "....and not spend all of your breath trying to conquer it."

There was some silence.

Amy: You are so weird.

Most of the people around the fire laughed.

Dale: It's not me, it's Faulkner. William Faulkner. Pardon my bad paraphrasing.

You: The Sound and The Fury.

Dale pointed at you as you named the book it came from.

Dale: Bingo, kid.

Morales: You know Faulkner?

You: Of course I do. I was actually going to major in English at UGA. I wanted to be a writer.

Clementine: To be what....the next James Patterson?

You: Hey....maybe. If worse came to worse, there was always the fast food industry.

Morales: Trust me, you will hate it.

He laughs as his wife rubs his back.

You: How about you, Clem? You had about a year until you had to think about college.

Clementine: I wanted to become....dog whisperer.

You didn't know if she was serious because she ended the statement with a snicker.

You: Bullshit.

Clementine: What? I can't become a dog whisperer?

You: I mean....

Shane says something as he drinks from his cup.

Shane: Lover's quarrel.

Clementine and you look at him as the group laughs, both of you are practically blushing.

Amy begins to get up.

Andrea: Where are you going?

Amy: I'm going to pee. Geez I'm trying to be discreet here.

She walks away, as the group continues to eat. It isn't long until she exits the RV to ask for toilet paper.

But then, a walker shows up and bites into her arm.

She screams as the rest of you realize there's walkers invading the camp.
