Original subtitles

You are more than welcome to stay.

I asked you to live before.

To just live and do it here.

I wouldn't be here if you hadn't fought the way you did for me.

She wouldn't be here.

She?

Dakota, I'm not your sister.

I'm your mother.

Just read them.

No way!

Beach ball.

Elephant.

Grape.

Should I go on?

You ask how I felt when the day began.

I felt hopeful.

Expectations changeable.

Situations tolerable.

That packs a punch.

Is this the way you imagine it?

I'm getting there.

I guess I have you to thank for it.

If I hadn't kept everyone in the dark about what we were doing, we wouldn't

all been at that place together.

Some lives are worth the cost.

Morgan.

Hey.

Dwight wants you to come take a look at the pavilion.

You want one for the road?

My wife ate this soup all the time she was pregnant with Ophelia.

I don't have much of an appetite today.

You all right?

Yeah. Yeah, I'll be fine.

You sure?

Mm -hmm.

I was glad to see everyone together.

It felt as if everything I'd done was beginning to pay off.

They're here.

Go tell Morgan.

Been a while.

Still running the rap.

Any chance of you sharing it?

That way, Wendell will be able to join me on the run.

We share with you. We got to share with everybody.

We're running on fumes.

Yeah.

Greetings.

How's everybody been?

Our foes from Tanktown persist.

They cover the gates at Paradise Ridge.

They hit up the skate park, too.

June and I thought we were the only ones. This meeting's been long overdue.

Yes, it has.

Looking forward to seeing what you've done with the place, Momo.

It's come a long way.

June sends her regrets.

She thought it'd be better this way.

Nice to see you, Victor.

Nice to see you two.

And nice to know that we might even be able to lend each other a hand in these

troubled times.

Yes, we can.

Because we might be facing a threat to our existence.

Something that Virginia didn't think she could handle, so I thought we should

try not to face it on our own.

That's why I called you all here.

We should try and work together.

Share information, pool resources, put our differences aside, can we?

Face this thing that threatens all of us?

Only one rule, and it's the same one I made the last time we were gathered here

together.

Anybody breaks it, anybody, you will not be welcome here again.

Come on in.

We got work to do.

You can see why I was hopeful.

Then everything changed.

Was that a kick?

He is strong.

Are you sure it wasn't a contraction?

The last time I felt something like that was when my wife was pregnant

with Ophelia.

That's the moment when I decided to move to Los Angeles, decided to change

everything, and give my daughter...

The kind of life I felt she deserved.

I suppose I wanted this place to be the same.

For Grace's baby, for everyone.

That's why we didn't take any chances.

Everyone would check their weapons at the door for our safety and for theirs.

We locked each weapon and locked them away.

Only Morgan and I had the key.

Anything else?

Skid mark!

Hey!

Where did you find him? The lanes.

Virginia sent him there to take care of the rat infestation.

Did he?

Apparently he was sitting around all day just licking his unmentionables.

You haven't changed your bid.

Thank you for the peace offering, Victor.

You understand why I couldn't let you win on what I was doing?

We're both playing our own games.

The better man won.

Kudos, by the way. The forgetful act is quite convincing.

And it appears the gambit paid off.

Why did hearing that mean so much to me?

There is a good reason.

But we're not there yet.

You need to understand it like I did.

I haven't seen Alicia.

She's out on a supply run with Al.

Did she know I was coming?

Morgan. Yeah.

We need you.

It's Grace.

Frankie, take him to my tent.

I raised June on the long range.

It's going to take her a day at least.

Says it could be Braxton Hicks or it could be contractions.

How do we know?

We wait for her to get here.

What about the baby?

How do we know if he's okay?

We need a fetal monitor.

I know where I can find one. What?

Where? It's a place I had set up for you and the baby before I found this place.

Where is it? I'll go get it. No, no. It's a little off the beaten path. It's

easy to find.

him back in a few hours, okay?

Okay.

Sherry gave him the keys for the Yamrat.

He had gas for the whole journey. Took the rabbi, just in case.

Morgan asked me to keep the peace until he returned to get the conversation

started. What's she doing here?

We are all here to share information.

And no one was closer to Virginia than Dakota.

Which is why whatever information she provides should be taken with a

grain of salt.

There's a guy who had us lined up like we were in a shooting gallery. I

distinctly recall turning the guns in Virginia's direction at the opportune

moment. Only because you saw which way the wind was blowing. We are not here to

rehash the past.

This is about the future.

Our future.

Protecting it. Together.

Dakota, these people, Virginia, ever say anything about them?

The last thing that she said was about them laying low.

The other stuff was all about the messages on the walls. Come on.

And last time we listened to her, John ended up dead. Morgan said this place

would be different. We just need to be a little more... That's not real rich

coming from you.

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

Aren't you the one Ginny thought tried to blow up Tanktown?

She did, and she was wrong.

Well, she must have thought it for a reason. These people blew up Tanktown

the inside.

They became one of us without me even realizing it.

Okay, so for all we know...

It could have turned one of us, too. Yeah, who? It could be you.

All right.

I didn't want to believe

that one of us was a traitor.

But I had lied to everyone about losing my memory.

We had all lied to each other at some point.

And now, when we needed it the most, we couldn't trust each other.

Thank you.

We used the dynamite to clear that field next to the gate.

The rock must have fallen and accidentally set it off. We thought what

at Tank Town was an accident in the first two.

I'm not going to make that mistake again.

Why are you looking at me?

I was sitting at the table when it went off. The people at that table aren't the

only ones in this place. Honey, come on.

Luciano just said that they attacked from the inside. Okay.

I think we should all take a break.

Did I believe it was an accident?

I wanted to believe that.

But I didn't have time to make up my mind.

Explosions must have drawn them.

I want my gun back.

That's not going to happen unless it's absolutely necessary.

I say this fits the bill.

The weapons we got in there can only kill a fraction of the dead out there.

Morgan is going to be coming back soon with your truck and its guns.

So we wait it out.

The walls will hold.

I just believed the walls would hold.

But when it comes to the dead, it's best to have a contingency.

If they breached, I had to be prepared for how bad the situation would be.

Daniel, what are you doing?

Morgan said the weapons had to stay locked up.

You've got to be prepared in case the gate doesn't hold.

When I saw, the guns were missing.

I knew the explosion was no accident.

Someone did it to trap us inside, draw the dead, and leave us defenseless.

The only question was who.

Dana, what happened out there?

I tried to raise Morgan.

The dead took out the antenna when they stormed the wall.

So what do we do now?

Do you feel well enough to travel?

What?

No.

No, I can't travel. It's not safe here now.

I'm going to fix that.

But until I do, you're better off somewhere else.

Where? There's a fishing shack in the woods.

From the time that this whole area was a lake.

I marked it down on a map.

It's in here, in the back.

along with water, food, and a first -aid kit.

Grace, I would not ask you to do this if I didn't think it was absolutely

necessary.

Okay.

All right.

The reason Morgan found this place was for Grace's child.

And now, this place wasn't even safe for him.

I needed to find those weapons.

Something I can help you with.

No.

Sorry. Sorry, I... You what?

Charlie, you find the hammer I said you're looking for?

Not yet.

Look, I did not realize that this was your tent.

I thought it was Dwight's.

Anybody here that touches my shit again, we're gonna have a problem, understand?

I had lost Ophelia, and I wasn't gonna lose her, too.

So I sent her away.

I told her to meet up with Gray, where she would be safe.

so I could do what I needed to do to find out who stole the weapons.

We've got a breach.

Where did the dead get in?

I let them in. What the... Why?

I needed to figure out who stole the weapons from Lockup.

Now I know.

Where are they?

Where are the rest of the weapons? I didn't take them, Daniel.

You're always lying.

I don't think you can tell the difference anymore.

This... coming from a man who kept the truth about what he'd been doing for me

for months.

I did what was needed to be done in order to free us from Virginia, and it

worked. What you're doing is tearing us apart. Why are you doing this?

What did they offer you to betray us, Lawton?

Be the big shot?

They didn't offer me anything because I don't know who they are.

I'm here for the same reasons, to find out.

Okay, okay, I broke a rule. I brought a weapon inside the gates. But if I

hadn't, someone out there might be dead right now.

You continue to give me every reason to hurt you.

It isn't what I wanted.

Morgan was right.

If we do things in here the same way we do things out there, nothing's going to

change.

Nothing will be different.

Are we here again, Daniel?

Before more dead get inside, we need those weapons.

I pushed the other game.

This game was not built to hold that much weight.

Victor was with us during the explosion.

He could not have blown that dynamite on his own. I wouldn't put anything past

him.

Whichever one of you is working with him, I warn you,

the betrayal of those closest to you comes with a cost.

It'll come back to haunt you.

There will be consequences.

Where are the weapons?

Dwight, let's search their tents.

Hang on a second.

Before you do that, why don't you tell us something?

Where's Grace?

Huh? Where's Charlie? They're not a part of this.

Yeah, Sherry's got a point.

Isn't it Shuckles who was once on the other team?

That was a long time ago.

Yeah, I caught her going through my shit just earlier today. I said Charlie is

not a part of this. Oh, we're just supposed to take your word on that?

you're looking at the wrong people here.

Virginia made the same mistake. You cost my people's lives. It almost cost me

mine. Don't let that happen again.

We need to be looking for the weapons.

Hey, guys.

Anyone know where Rachel is with those reinforcements?

You know, Dee might vouch for you, but I don't know you.

Maybe you're working with him.

Maybe Morgan is. Maybe this whole thing is a scam to keep us in here. You don't

believe that, do you? I don't know.

Dee, the only thing I know for sure is that we have to look out for ourselves

here. And the man, look at me.

Hey, maybe if we all work together, we might just stand a chance of reinforcing

this thing. Hey, look, there isn't time, all right? This gate is not going to

hold. Lucy's right. We need the weapons. We'll get a tool from the shed.

Yeah.

Hey, Raleigh.

I'll help you show this off.

It's not going to be enough, amigo.

Oh, yeah.

Yes, it will.

Morgan left his axe at the gate before entering this place.

I thought I could leave the man I once was outside, too.

But that was not an option.

No more games.

Where are the weapons? I don't know.

I don't need to remind you that you can survive a shot in the face. You've seen

it. What you don't know is what it does to you later.

You will win every time you take a sip of water.

You will eat soup for the rest of your life.

You will learn to hide the pain when you talk.

You will wheeze at night when you breathe.

But mostly, you will never forget who did all of that to you.

Where are the weapons?

Forgive me.

You have to forgive me.

Where are the weapons?

Please! I don't know!

Morgan? What the hell happened here, Daniel?

Have they found the weapon?

Not yet, but I got everybody looking for them. Have you heard from Grace?

Can't reason on the walk, but I'm almost at the... Let me know when you hear

from her.

I will.

It's just a matter of time before we find the weapons.

Then I'll wait for the apology.

Did you mean it?

Mean what?

What you said about your jaw.

The pain I caused you.

Don't.

I want to stop you and whoever you're working with.

Why do you care so much about whether or not this place works?

When I found you, you were happily living alone in a warehouse with a cat.

You don't even know half these people.

I'm willing to bet that you can't stand the other half. Yet, you almost shot me

in the face to protect this place.

Why?

It was a fair question.

And it still is.

I couldn't answer it then, but now I think I can.

Now I think I know why this place meant so much to me.

When I was cutting hair for Virginia, pretending that I didn't remember

or anybody, I realized that the situation was not different from when I

running that barbershop in Los Angeles, pretending that the life I had led

before arriving there didn't exist.

My daughter Ophelia spent her entire existence without really knowing who her

father was.

So her whole relationship was based on a lie, a deception.

Morgan's idea made me believe that I could help create the kind of home

I wanted Los Angeles to be for Ophelia and myself, a place where you would not

need to pretend to be what you weren't.

I hoped.

That by doing that, I could redeem myself from all the

lies I told and for Ophelia's death.

But it doesn't seem to have worked that way, has it?

Daniel, are you there?

You copy?

I copy you, Morgan.

I'm at the shack, but Grace, she isn't.

She should be there.

No, Daniel, she's not.

So where is she?

Grace, are you hearing me?

Have everybody found out?

Yeah.

Are you sure she isn't at the shack?

Didn't look like anybody had been near the place in months.

I repeat, Grace, do you hear me?

She can't be far.

Maybe they had to leave.

Maybe they heard the gunfire.

Maybe. I'll double back.

Thank you.

I repeat, Grace, do you hear me?

Come on, do you copy?

You don't think this was Victor?

I don't know.

Morgan? Grace.

Grace, where are you?

You doing all right?

All right.

These contractions, I think they're getting closer.

Grace, I told you to go to the shack.

What happened?

The shack?

Daniel, what are you talking about?

The shack in the woods.

I marked it in the map I gave you.

No.

No, you told me to avoid the fishing shack because it wasn't safe.

No.

No, I told you to go to the shack and wait for me there.

What's going on, Daniel? I know what I told her.

Charlie was there.

You told her to go to the caverns.

You told me the same thing.

No.

Why would I send you to the caverns? We haven't surveyed the caverns. Daniel,

you did.

Need to get her back, Momo.

I gotta fix the antenna and radio June the results.

Can you walk?

Okay. All right.

We go?

We're gonna figure this out later.

Morgan, do you copy?

Go for Morgan.

We found the weapons.

Tell me where?

I think you're gonna wanna see this for yourself.

On our way.

We found this in Daniel's desk.

How'd these guns end up in your shed, Daniel?

I don't know.

I put them in the lockup like I told you.

Are these everything?

Yeah. Everybody's weapons are being accounted for.

Everything matches what we have in the logbook. Somebody moved them there.

Was it you, Luciana? Did you do it? I had to break the lock to get in.

Yeah, I can vouch for that. I'm standing right here.

Then it was Trent and the Rangers or whoever is working with Victor. Daniel,

what is going on?

Somebody's trying to make me look bad.

They're trying to make us go against each other. Okay.

It's just with Grace and Charlie at the shack and now this?

Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?

This isn't the kind of thing people make mistakes about. I know, but whatever's

going on, we just need you to help us understand. What is there to understand,

man? I know what I said. I know what I did.

I'm just asking.

Are you sure?

Daniel, look at me.

I mean, are you feeling all right?

I'm not sure.

It's confusing.

Maybe you should talk to somebody, huh?

Yeah.

Okay.

No, I'm talking to you.

I... I... I moved weapons without remembering. I sent Gray to a place that

dangerous. Why?

We're going to get to the bottom of whatever's going on. I promise you that.

Can you tell me the three words I asked you to remember at the beginning of our

conversation?

Beach ball, elephant, great.

June, what does this have to do with anything?

These tests and what you told me about yesterday tell me a lot.

For instance, it's not neurological.

So what is it?

I think it's psychological.

What does that mean?

It means symptomatically you're experiencing memory loss.

Dissociative thinking, but there doesn't appear to be any underlying physical

cause, which is good. It means we can treat this.

Why is this happening to me now?

Because you finally slowed down?

Because you have something to lose?

Were you worried about that, about something happening here?

We all were.

Could that be why you moved the weapons? Did you think they were in danger where

they were?

I don't know.

You know, you spend your whole life giving people a reason not to trust you,

then one day you cannot even trust yourself.

I deserve this.

This kind of thing is pretty far from my area of expertise.

I need to educate myself. Let me read what I can.

I'll come back.

It's good you could be here for him.

I came as soon as I could.

I'll go check on Grace. Make sure they're still just Braxton Hicks. And

going out the same way I came. Hey.

Is there any chance he's... Taking it?

Yeah.

I don't think so.

We get people like that in the ER from time to time.

They were just as confused as he was, so... It's hard to fake, Morgan.

Anything you need, Daniel?

I hope you'll understand if we take our leave until you have things under

control. Just because Daniel was wrong about this doesn't mean we don't have to

worry about whoever's out there.

If the day's any indication, I ain't too sure I like our chances here.

I saw graffiti at the water tower.

I meant to say when I got back.

How far away was that again? It's ten miles.

And if they've been there, the likelihood is that they know we're here,

especially after that explosion.

All the more reason to leave.

If they know about us, they're gonna know about Lawton. Then we better get

to mind the store.

We're going to make the same call, Morgan.

Sherry.

We've been over this. No, I know.

It's not about that. I just wanted to say, I hope you're safe.

Thank you.

I think I can help.

I've been thinking about everything Virginia said about the people that

the messages.

I heard her tell Ranger Hill that they went underground.

And I thought maybe she was thinking that they were just laying low, but, you

know, what if she thought it for real?

Like what? What are we talking, like a basement or storm tunnel or something?

The last place that she had him scouting for him, it was two days south of

Tanktown. That's Dallas.

That's where she had me and Al snooping around, where we found the graffiti in

Nora's building.

Maybe we start there.

Al and Alicia must be halfway there.

Wes and I can meet up with them and go the rest of the way together.

Okay.

Out and back, quiet and safe.

Okay. And then we should all come back together and decide all this between us.

Daniel. You're leaving?

I have to go.

I can't stay.

It's not safe for me to be here.

Nobody's going to do anything to you about today.

I'm not worried about me.

I'm worried about you.

I let the dead in.

I would have shot Strand if you hadn't returned.

With grace and danger, your baby, you.

The last time these things happened in my mind, I

set our old place on fire.

Can't risk that happening now.

Where are you going to go?

The warehouse.

It's still there.

And if not?

I'll find a place.

Come to the lot.

Why would I go there?

Staying alone offers a better chance of survival than you wandering around alone

out here.

We can keep you safe.

And everyone around you.

I'm not doing this for you.

I'm doing this for Ophelia.

So you can live an honest life.

Shall we?

Hey, Victor?

You really gonna help him?

What do you all think of me?

That man just put a gun in your face.

I have a right to ask.

He'll be better off with me than here with you.

Or wherever else he was headed.

I'm gonna hold you to this.

You don't have to hold me to anything.

I said what I said.

This is for the best, I promise. Daniel.

You take care of yourself.

I'm sorry.

Me.

I get better.

Don't worry.

You ask how I felt when the day began.

I felt hopeful.

This episode is called Handle With Care, and it has a couple of different

references. The most obvious one is one of the needle drops that is played

during this episode, and that is the Traveling Wilburys' Handle With Care.

Music has played a big part in Daniel's stories.

in the past couple of seasons and it speaks to daniel's story in this episode

several levels it's about his relationship with the truth and how easy

be to lose touch with but at the same time it also is referring to the fragile

nature of the group and what they're trying to build with each other and also

daniel's own mental state as we're about to find out beach ball

elephant

Grape. Should I go on?

We started the episode with this kind of mysterious interview with Daniel where

we didn't really know where he was, and he's repeating these seemingly random

words. And it really was all about getting the audience to lean in. And

episode really is a mystery. We know there's a story unfolding. We know that

something about that story is not right because we know Daniel's telling someone

about it, but we don't know who it is. We don't know the circumstances.

This meeting's been long overdue. Yes, it has.

What we wanted to do is really kind of do an honest take on what would happen

the authoritarian leader just got taken off the map and all these different

factions were left to try to work together.

Nice to know that we might even be able to lend each other a hand in these

troubled times.

Yes, we can.

Because we might be facing a threat to our existence.

And everyone really has their kind of own agendas. And there's also distrust

because everyone wanted different things. And everyone kind of came away

dissatisfied.

We thought it would be much more interesting as they came together to

threat that they weren't all on the same page about it. And there's a lot of

suspicions about whether or not one of these people in any of these groups

be in fact working with this new threat that's moving.

It was you.

What?

How did the dead get in?

I let them in.

Daniel letting walkers in to find out who has the weapon and kind of force

person's hand is kind of meant to be a desperate choice. And it speaks to the

fact that Daniel is not entirely within his right mind and that he's not making

the most rational decisions.

Great. I told you to go to the shack.

What happened?

The shack?

Daniel, what are you talking about?

It's starting to kind of lay the groundwork so that when we learn what

is going on and that Daniel is actually having some problems with his memory, we

see that there was evidence for it starting to mount up.

These guns end up in your shed, Daniel.

I don't know.

I put them in the lockup like I told you. When we learn the truth, it's...

At this moment that he's starting to experiencing PTSD because the kind of

similarities between what he did in Los Angeles and building a life for his

daughter are churning up so many of those unresolved feelings.

Daniel.

Daniel, look at me.

Are you okay?

I'm not sure.

Lenny James and Ruben just did a fantastic job in kind of capturing the

of that. I think it's hard not to watch that moment and really feel for Daniel

because he just feels so kind of lost and feels like he can't trust anything

that moment.

Cut. Nice work, everybody.

We wanted to hold off that he was talking to June because we didn't want

reveal that he was dealing with some sort of medical issue. And June is the

closest thing any of these characters has to a doctor.

We're going to get to the bottom of whatever's going on, okay?

I promise you that.

It was really about her being able to help Daniel understand what's going on

his head and understand why now he's having these memory problems and why a

who spent his entire life lying to get by, lying to survive, is now unable to

trust himself and feels like he's lying to himself.

I'll find a place.

Come to lot.

I think that's a very kind of complicated moment for Strand.

He says he's doing it for Ophelia, and I think there's some truth to that. But

then at the same time, there's a part of Strand that is excited about the fact

that he's going to get to put Daniel in essentially another jail cell at Lawton.

Shall we? It shows that Strand is the one who won in the end. He's the one who

outfoxed him.

I'm going to hold you to this.

You don't have to hold me to anything.

I said what I said.

So, you know, once again, Strand has both some altruistic motives, but also

selfish motives for doing what he does.
