Original subtitles

I'm sorry I didn't do what I said I would with the tower.

You got everybody onto the rafts, that's all that matters.

I've been hearing some chatter on the radio, and I think it might be Padre.

I think Padre is real, and I think we might actually have some place to go to.

Alicia, get on the raft! No!

I don't know how fast I'll turn. I don't know how much longer I have left.

It's up to you to make sure everything we've been through means something.

be part of this.

And if so, whether you're willing to do what needs to be done and get the thing

we know you want.

Can anybody hear me?

Anybody out there?

Anybody?

I got you.

I know.

You're hungry, right?

We're going to go shopping.

Hey, look.

Shall we take Mama with us?

Huh?

Got it?

Watching the tide roll away.

I'm just surfing on the dock of the bay.

Wasting time.

I left my home in Georgia.

Headed for the Frisco Bay.

Cause I've had nothing to live for.

It looked like nothing's gonna come my way.

Sitting on the dock of the bay.

Watching the tide roll away.

I'm sitting on the dock of the bay.

It's okay.

I'm here.

Where are you?

Jim, where are you?

What are you doing here?

I'm just looking for food.

I don't have any.

How far along are you?

Oh, my name is Morgan.

This is my daughter, Mo.

Ava.

Okay.

Ava, I think we can help each other. You want my help? Yeah.

Take that little girl and get as far away from here as you can. Oh, I can't

that. Not until I find her mother and the rest of my family.

Looked like you were looking for yours, too.

There's no place for kids.

Grace, I hope you can hear me.

Look, I don't know how much longer I can keep doing this without you. I...

Did what you asked.

I did. I got Mo someplace safe, but she needs you.

She needs you and I need you.

I'm scared.

Scared so I need my family.

I need...

Evening.

Don't be a hero. Okay, okay.

I don't know what you want, but whatever it is, we can work it out.

You gotta give me my little girl back.

She don't belong to you. Just like all the others did.

Others? What others?

The kids you took.

I did not take anybody's kids.

Where are they?

Just give me back my daughter, and you will never see us again.

Get in the hole.

Barry.

Why are you doing this?

So every other shithead can see what happens when they come here.

Steal our kids from us.

That's it. Cover him up.

What he deserves.

Please. Please!

Whoever you are, thank you for saving my life.

I'm not here to save you.

They thought I was you.

That baby is everything to me.

I'm not going to let you take it.

Better off with me than you.

And you'll get over it.

I did.

Please, stop.

I'll kill you if you follow us.

I'm approaching the drop. You copy?

We copy.

You're late.

We found some new eggs.

Get in the process now.

How long is that going to take?

As long as it takes.

Ready?

Here, come here.

You hungry, baby girl?

Here you

go.

I got a lead on a new egg, Oriol.

I'll leave this one in the birdhouse and go check it out.

Talk to you then.

I know you miss your daddy, but you're going to be better off without him.

Hello? Who is this?

Just someone who wants to help.

I heard your message. Where are you?

How do I know you're not the one who's been taking everybody's kids?

I'm a mother myself.

You can trust me.

I know how hard it is. I just want my baby to be okay.

They will. You just have to tell me where you are. Can you do that?

Of course I am. Where are you?

You can understand what?

It's hard to know who to follow.

Especially a lady.

Turn off the walking.

Hand over your gun.

Right now.

Making a big mistake.

Not as big as the one you made when you took my daughter.

Drop your weapon.

Turn yourself around.

Where is she?

Somewhere you'll never find her. That's the wrong answer. Where the hell's my

oxygen? Someplace you'll never find it. Not unless you take me to her.

You don't know who you're dealing with. Somebody who's going to run out of air.

I'm the least of your problems. The people I'm with, they'll kill you in

you can't even imagine. You want to keep breathing?

You should get moving.

Now you still get out of this.

I said... Those people, they find out you interfered with an egg. An egg?

That's what you call the kids that you steal?

Not stealing, rescuing.

From what?

Parents think they can give their kids what they need.

Oh, but you think you can.

You saw where I'm from, you can get it.

Where exactly are you from?

Why are you taking these kids that don't belong to you?

I'll do what you ask.

You have to hold up your end of the deal.

We will.

How do I know?

The only reason you're still grieving is because of us.

What's your name?

Madeline. Not anymore.

We will tell you who you're going to be from now on.

We're too late.

And what does that mean?

She's already rescued.

My people came sooner than I expected.

No.

You kidding me?

Are you with Padre?

What do you know about Padre?

Let's move.

Let's go.

Which way would they go?

That baby's better off without you. You don't get to decide what's best for my

family. I already did.

I used to be just like you.

You are nothing like me. I need more.

Get off me.

Let me go.

Oh, dear God.

You're Madison Clark.

How do you know my name?

Your kids.

Your kids told me. You're full of shit. No, you died.

That's what they said, and I saw the stadium.

My kids?

They're alive?

I will tell you everything I know.

In exchange for my daughter.

There's only one way Padre's ever going to give her back to you.

You're going to have to help me rescue someone else's kid.

Take the place of yours.

No, I'm not doing that.

Kid's going to be better off.

But there's no other way to give them what they want without taking some child

away from his family?

What if the kid hadn't born yet?

Would Padre be interested in somebody who's pregnant?

Maybe. Because that woman you were talking to on the walkie is pregnant and

she's not doing so good.

And I know where she is.

You sure you're ready to go down that road?

Will I get my daughter back?

Yeah, you will. And Padre, they'll be able to look after her and her baby,

right?

Yeah, and I'm not taking a child away from its mother so we So yeah

You get smoke in your lungs trying to escape from that stadium?

Is that why you need this?

Something like that.

The way I heard it, there is no way you could have gotten out of that place

alive. I'm still not surprised.

What else did my kids tell you?

Told quite a bit.

But you are not what I imagined.

You don't know anything.

You're stealing kids.

Rescuing. Oh, is that you talking?

Or Padre?

What do you know about Padre? You didn't answer my question before.

I know they're putting out radio messages.

I know that nobody can find him, and I know that Alicia was looking for him.

Why was Alicia looking for them? I'm not telling you anything more until I get

my kid back.

You think you're doing the right thing, fighting to get her back, but she's in

the right place.

Believe me. Why?

Because we can give her a life people like you can't. People like me?

Parents. You couldn't even feed her.

I would have found food.

Well, look to me like you're barely scraping by out there on your own.

It's my daughter.

Her mother, she's coming.

What difference is that going to make? You don't know what we endured, okay? We

survived the bombs.

You're in Galveston.

Nick and Alicia were there, too. I told you.

I'm not telling you anything more about them. I'm just saying that our family

have gotten through worse than this.

It's not the answer, it's the problem. That's what Padre's figured out.

That's why what they're building is different.

You're the woman who put her life on the line for her family.

What the hell happened to you?

This the place?

Yeah, this is it.

So what now?

We go in, we tell her the truth.

And what's that?

That we'll take her to a place where her baby will be taken care of.

And then what happens to her after her baby's born?

She doesn't need to know. I need to know.

No, you don't.

How can you do this to people?

Okay, you do it.

I did what you asked.

Now it's your turn.

Like this?

One time isn't enough.

We're going to need you to keep doing it.

Ava?

Ava, are you there?

What are you doing here?

Hey, I, um...

I found somebody I think can help.

Who are you? We spoke on the walkie.

Morgan told me where you were.

I just want Jim.

Is that the baby's father?

This house belonged to my family.

I was born here.

I thought I'd be safe here.

And we can help you and your baby.

How?

The place I'm from. It's safe. It's good people. It's the kind of place a kid

would dream about growing up.

It's not too good to be true.

It's for real.

It's the best shot our kids have for a future.

They even got Morgan's kid in there. Didn't they, Morgan?

Yeah, that's right.

I didn't think it was possible for a place like it to exist, but it does.

What's it called?

Padre.

I'll get my things.

Tell me what's going to happen to her once the baby is born.

A little late, don't you think? Well, you didn't answer before.

So what happens? You know.

Otherwise, you would have pressed for an answer.

They get split up.

And why is that?

Because that's how Padre works. Yeah, but why?

How does that give the kids their best shot?

You're looking at this all wrong.

The way we see each other and the things we do for each other, Padre's rewritten

the book on all of it. And what does that look like?

No attachment.

No connection.

I'm not doing this.

I've seen a mother lose her baby once before. I don't want to see that ever

again.

Then you'll never see your daughter again.

Everything all right?

Yeah, it is for me.

What about you, Morgan?

No, everything's fine.

It's fine. We should just get you to Padre. That's what we should do.

Okay.

What? They found me.

Is there a back way out of here?

Why are they after you?

Piss them off, trying to save some kids.

Now how the hell do we get out of here?

Yeah, follow me.

Wait, wait.

Come on, we gotta keep going.

Let me have it. No way, come on.

Come on, the beast is this way.

You okay?

I'm fine.

Oh, you're hurt. Did you get bit?

No, it's from the vines. I'm going to keep moving. Come on.

No! Oh, no, we've got to stop.

If they catch up with us, they're going to kill us. Something happened to this

baby because of us. I'm fine. It's fine.

Go. He's right.

If something happens, it's on me.

Where can we go?

There? That crypt?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Okay, come on.

Oh, yeah.

Let's get that closed.

Here.

It's going to be okay.

What's that? Heart rate warning.

Just make sure nothing's wrong.

I'm fine, really. The baby's fine, too.

Who's out there?

Who's after you?

What is it?

Can't get a heartbeat.

Audrey.

They have doctors?

Yeah. Then get them here.

You're making this worse.

Can't hear it? You can't hear the heartbeat?

No.

So keep looking.

She's not pregnant. She never was.

I don't understand.

She's tricking us.

Why?

You get me to take you to Padre? Is that what you thought would happen?

Is that true?

Are you not pregnant?

Doesn't matter.

Tie her up. Leave her some food and water. She'll only slow it down. You

don't remember?

A year ago.

Told me it was for the best.

You really don't remember.

She was six.

Her name was Odessa.

She cried when you pulled her from me on the beach.

What she told you is not true.

She knows exactly what's going on.

We still have time to get out of here before they find us. You need to take me

to her. Your plan never would have worked.

They'd have checked for a heartbeat before we got on the boat. They'd have

checked for one when we arrived. They'd have checked for one every day you were

there. I need to see her. She needs to see me.

She's not pregnant and there's no baby.

How are we getting Mo back?

We're not.

Even with a trade, there was no guarantee. You were going to trade me

kid? You told me that we would get her back.

I said we might.

You need to find a way to get me to my kid.

Or you will never know where your children are.

You think that's a threat?

I want my kid.

And you want yours.

That's the thing, Morgan.

I don't want to fight them.

I'm never going to see them again.

And that's okay.

I told you I got over it before.

No.

No, you were just saying that, and we had a deal.

So I could get what I wanted from you with her.

How else would you be doing all of this?

You have kids?

We're all doing what we're doing for our own reasons.

You know them. You really can't help me.

Be smart.

Let's go before they find us.

Whoa! Easy now!

First thing in my granddaddy's will.

To be buried with his favorite hunting gun.

Said he wanted to be prepared in case he didn't end up in front of the pearly

gate.

I don't think you will either.

Let's just take it easy.

I know you're angry, but we gotta get out of here alive.

Only way we're gonna find our kids, right?

I have another way.

You might not want to see your kids, but I don't think you want them to die.

Are you there?

The ones looking for the collector?

Who's this?

Someone like you.

Someone she stole a child from.

Who are you on?

I just found a way to motivate her to do what we want.

But I'm going to need your help.

I'm listening.

Not going to work.

Tell him where her kids are. I can't help you. Where I'm from, they don't

shit what I think.

You better find a way to make them. You heard me.

Tell him where her kids are.

Tell him where to find her goddamn kids! I can't. I will shoot you.

And your daughter will never see you again.

So just tell him where they are. She's right. This is not going to work. Why

not? Because... Because

they're already dead.

I'm sorry, I really am.

But your kids, they're gone.

Hey!

You said they were alive. You said you knew where they were. I said that so I

get what I wanted from you. You're lying. I wouldn't lie about something

that. You don't know anything about my kids.

You never did. I do, Madison, I do.

I know that Nick got shot.

Victor, Alicia, and Luciana, we were all there when it happened.

We buried him ourselves.

Alicia.

She got bit by a walker not so long ago.

She took her own arm off.

She didn't do it in time in the infection setting.

But she fought it for months.

Longer than anybody I know, but the last time I saw her, the last time I spoke

to her, the last time I talked to her,

she was close to the end.

Be 30 walkers out there.

More on the way.

Are you there?

Are you there?

They're still waiting on your deal.

They can still get up there.

Why can't they?

They're willing to make that deal.

You can't give them what you promised.

They're liable to kill us. They already tried to kill me. Did she hurt you?

Where are... How long before they find it?

The property's big. It could fill up the house. It could take hours. Walkers

ain't gonna make it easy for us.

We're gonna have to fight our way through them and hope we get out before

party finds us.

It's gonna take all of us.

Madison, we're gonna need you.

Look, I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth about your kids at the beginning.

I just did what I thought I had to.

What were they doing when we left?

Nick was going through a bad patch when I met him.

Alicia too.

They thought that you were gone.

But he was making the first steps towards something better, you know, and

when it happened.

Alicia, how did she get bit?

The bombs we were talking about, she was trying to stop them from going off.

She survived the explosion. She helped me, my little girl, and some people that

we cared about escape the fallout.

Like I said, she fought the infection for as long as she could.

You didn't see her die. I did not. I had to leave with Mo.

She could still be out there.

People don't survive by...

Lisa was different. We know that.

Maybe she found a way.

Even if she did, I don't want to find her.

Why?

We think it's time.

You've rescued more children than any other collector.

We'll help you find yours now.

No. I don't want to find them.

I was willing to die at the stadium so my kids could see what I was building

worth fighting for.

But if they knew what I was doing to find them... Padre plagued me from the

start.

Made me do things I didn't want to, so when I could finally get them back, I'd

say no.

If you didn't want to find them, why are you still taking kids for partying?

Because I knew what they'd do if I walked away.

What? They'd find Nick and Alicia and make them do what I wouldn't anymore.

But I don't have to worry about that.

I wish I knew that before I took your daughter.

The coffin.

I found it.

They get through that door, they're going to kill us both.

Open up. We know you're in there. She saved me once before. They think we're

working together.

If we give her up, maybe they'll bury us. No, we need her to get our kids, and

so do they. I don't think they're going to see it that way.

If you're hiding her, we're going to have a problem.

Let them in, Morgan.

Don't sacrifice yourself for me. I'm not doing it for you.

I'm doing it so you can get my daughter back. You can't get your daughter back.

I can't get yours back either. I can't undo any of this. Yes, you can.

You just need to find a reason.

Morgan, they're going to kill you.

There's only one way to show them you're not with me. Open the damn door! Okay,

wait!

Just wait!

We're going to open the door.

We're gonna hand her over to you.

The only way to live to see your daughter one day.

Hands where we can see them.

Remember me?

You took my boy last winter.

You remember me now.

Get up. Let's start digging.

High tides in less than two hours.

You made the right call.

What did you do to her?

Left her to watch the tide come in.

Worse when you can see it coming.

What'd she tell you?

Not much, but she didn't need to.

Found this in her pack.

We know when they're coming to pick her up.

Put it on.

Why would I do that?

We're going to surprise her friends at the beach.

Bury them all in the sand if we have to.

Someone will talk.

Someone would tell us where our kids are.

Is there a problem?

This is not going to get our kids back. It is going to get everybody killed.

Let him go.

That's not how this works.

They took our kids.

That's why we're fighting each other.

Just let him go.

You know what happens if you get in her way.

I know.

I won't.

Don't go with him.

You don't have to.

I have to get to my kid, Morgan.

I have to do something.

Odessa lost this the day before Madison took her.

I promised I'd find it and I'd get it back to her.

I'm not going to break that promise.

I can't help you. That's not why I'm here.

You know, when I met your kids, I was in a place not too different to where you

are now.

I wanted to get away from everything and everybody.

Meeting Nick and Alicia, seeing what you were giving them, they were a big part

of it, and things started turning around for me.

So in a way, I kind of owe you.

So I think you should show the people who did this to you that they're wrong.

That you can fight for the people you care about without losing yourself.

Hey, no one's gone until they're gone.

Alicia said that was something you used to say.

Hey, everything I've done, I am going.

You know, I've got you taped.

Morgan! Morgan!

Oh. Oh, no.

Morgan!

The hell was that?

She's dead because of something I did.

Not gonna see her daughter because of me.

No, she's dead because of Padre.

You were just ready to give up.

What's changed?

I'm gone, Morgan.

I'm gone, but you're not.

I'll help you get to your daughter.

I'll help you show Padre they're wrong.

And then what?

I don't know, but I wasn't lying. The only way you're going to get to Padre is

if you take him another child.

There's got to be another way.

This means we can't fail.

Who's this?

Collector. He has something after.

I don't see anything.

I got information.

There's rafts out there with people on them.

What kind of people?

Ones we might want. His children.

Pregnant woman.

I can tell you more, but you gotta let me go with you.

Where the hell are we going?

Where is Audrey?

We're meaning to tell you.

I don't know.

This episode is all about family, Morgan, and what he thinks for Mo, and

the return of a character who gave up everything for her family, Madison

It is very exciting to have Kim come back to the show and continue to tell

story. It's very exciting to get to do it.

through the eyes of Morgan Jones, a character who knows about Madison Clark,

has never actually crossed paths with her. And it's just such lightning in a

bottle to get these two characters together in this way.

Better off with me than you.

And you'll get over it.

I did.

The audience starts to put it together as Morgan does, is that Madison is

actually this person that... Please stop!

The people who buried him were after, and that she is stealing children?

Which leaves us with this huge question. Why in the hell is Madison Clark

stealing kids and taking kids away from their parents? Someone who family was

everything to her. Why is she now ripping families apart?

You met your daddy.

But you're going to be better off without him.

Someone who has been working for Padre. And what we've come to learn about Padre

is that they are an organization that has a philosophy.

Family is a weakness.

family is something to fight against.

We start to kind of gain some insight into the way that Padre has manipulated

Madison into collecting children for them.

One time is just enough.

We're going to need you to keep doing it. We see how they dangled the carrot

reuniting her with her children, but then broke her to the point where she

wouldn't want to be around them. And it gives us insight into Madison's way of

justifying things with character, but also gives us insight into what Padre's

doing. You interfered with an egg. An egg?

That's what you call the kids that you steal? Not stealing, rescuing. We have

heard about Padre in a positive light.

But it's Padre.

Something better is the possibility of it.

But what we find out here is that, yes, maybe it is trying to rebuild

civilization, but it's trying to do it in a pretty unconventional way. So I

don't think this is what anyone was expecting.

Get off me.

Let me go.

Madison is...

shocked when Morgan recognizes the names on the tattoos on her wrists because

Madison hasn't encountered anyone who knows her kids for a very long time.

Morgan's perspective, seeing Madison is literally like coming face to face with

a ghost.

Madison's point of view of Morgan is

pretty complicated because she knows that there is not a whole lot that they

do to get Mo back.

Now that she's been handed over to Padre. There's only one way Padre's ever

going to give her back to you.

You're going to have to help me rescue another kid.

Take the place of yours.

No, I'm not doing that.

But there's no other way to give them what they want without taking some child

away from his family.

There is no. There's a lot that Madison can relate to on an emotional level.

Morgan is in a position where he is willing to kidnap a pregnant woman to

trade for his own child. He's sacrificing kind of his ideals for Mo.

I've seen a mother lose her baby once before. I don't want to see that ever

again.

Then you'll never see your daughter again. Morgan doesn't want to think he

going down the same path as Madison, although Madison does warn him and say,

you sure you want to go down this path?

Everything all right?

Yeah, it is for me. Morgan realizes it is a very slippery slope.

Fine, we should just get you to Padre. That's what we should do. When family is

leveraged, you'll do a lot of things that you don't want to do.

What? He found me.

Who's this?

Someone who could go a child's home.

Who do you want?

I just found a way to motivate her to do what we want.

I'm listening.

Not going to work.

Tell him where to find her goddamn kids!

I can't.

They're already dead.

Seeing Madison have that emotional reaction, at least for Morgan, makes him

realize the Madison that he'd heard about is still in there somewhere.

This is where kind of the hard exterior that Madison has built up to protect

herself, to allow herself to do the things she was doing for Padre, all

away and her real emotion comes out.

We know when they're coming to pick her up. We're going to surprise her friends

at the beach.

Bury them all in the sand if we have to.

Someone will talk.

Someone will tell us where our kids are.

Something you see in a lot of old westerns, it's called a sand necktie. We

thought that there could be a really horrifying zombie apocalypse spin on

You don't deserve to go in like this.

When Morgan's standing opposite Walker Ava, when he realizes that his actions

may have actually contributed to her death, it lands on him that he's doing

same exact thing that Madison did, and it's kind of in that moment that Madison

reignited her kind of will to live, and she saves Morgan.

I'm gone, but you're not.

She doesn't want to see him go down the same road that she went down with Padre.

If there's one way she can get revenge on Padre, it's by helping Morgan get his

daughter back and by preventing someone else from being manipulated by them in

the same way she was.

Who's he?

Collector, he has something to offer.

It's Raph.

Out there with people on.

Morgan's playing a very dangerous game. He feels like he has to give something

up in order to get Padre to trust him. And that means he's going to have to

up everybody else in the rafts. Now, there's a piece of that, which is if

they're on the inside with me, they can help me. And I think that Morgan

believes with their help, with Madison's help, it's all going to be okay.

But it's definitely a gamble.

And looking forward into season eight, we're just going to have to see how that

gamble works out. Where is Padre?

I've been meaning to tell you.

I don't know.

We will most definitely get to see Padre in Season 8. It's something that we

have been teasing since the beginning of Season 7, and there are many more

surprises to come with what that place is like and the people who live there.

You're just going to have to watch and see, but it's not going to look like

anything you've seen.
