All language subtitles for The Walking Dead World Beyond. S02E03

I've been thinking about Silas,
what we can do with him.

Tell me your name.Silas. What's yours?

Dennis.

Jennifer Mallick is my daughter.
She's just returned home.

Lyla said she gave you a tour.
What'd you think?

I thought there'd be
a lot more guard towers

and attack dogs.

You saw me
as someone worth saving.

That's why I came back. Hello?

How the hell did you find me?

Hello, Felix?

Elton?
Is that you?

I found Percy.
He's hurt.

She's the one that shot me.

Let's begin.

We can still find him.

I-I don't think
losing Silas' stuff

was any kind of omen
or anything.

Who said it was an omen?

I mean,
we either ditched the bag,

or we were empty chow.

If anything, it worked out
because we found Teresa,

like, out of the blue.

Teresa?

She seems like a Teresa.

Yeah.

Somebody else's loss
is our Teresa.

Point is, we're...
We're gaining ground now,

so we can catch up
to the others provided we...

Provided what?

That we find 'em alive
or we find 'em at all?

Look, I'm just saying,

after what Huck did,
odds aren't good.

That's all.

Teresa or no Teresa.

Hey, hold on.

Whoa.

When was the last time we ate?

This place?

It's safe.

So we just have to
go along with it?

I don't know.

It was your mom's idea,
wasn't it?

To send you off and not tell me.

After what you did,

what I did to try and fix it...

it's what I had to do
to get past it.

It or me?

Dennis, people got hurt.

There had to be consequences.

You think I haven't been paying
for what happened?

Getting pulled from active duty,

working decontamination...

It's not
for me to decide.
It is.

'Cause it's not my job
I'm trying to get back.

So...

a lot's changed around here.

A lot's changed with you.

Hell of a souvenir
you brought back.

Occupational hazard.

How's the outpost been?

Good crew?

They're shaping up.

Got sent this new one.

Big guy, quiet.

Heard they picked him up
out on a resource run.

Well, he's in good hands.

Listen, I'm coming back later
to drop off an M998.

Maybe we can have dinner?

Just think about it?

Yeah, I'll think about it.

Hey, no sign of guns.

Weapons look homemade.

Metal sheets
are a question mark,

but I only see
two sets of tracks.

Means they're alone.

And that Dakota fire pit

means they camped here
overnight.

Which means they're
pretty far from home.

Well, how do you know
they havea home?

Those turnips, they're all
the same size and shape.

Harvested.

Conning these two out of
all their food should be cake.

What?
Wait, wait, whoa, whoa.

What? What? Why?
We don't need to do that.

They have what we need.

But we don't need alltheir food.

We're looking for people
that could be anywhere.

We need all we can get.

We should just ask them
what they can spare, alright?

They seem like good people.

So did Huck.

Turned out she was only good
at shooting people.

Look, I've been out here
a long time.

World does shit to people.

Even the good ones.

Hey, not always.

Not us.

Okay?
Wait here.

Hi.
Hey, there.

I mean no harm.

I come in peace. Don't move.

Keep your hands high.

You alone?

I-I have a traveling companion.

Percy.
He's a good guy.

He, hung back.

He's clean.

I'll find the friend.

What're you doing out here?

I was, looking
for my compatriots.

They were headed east
looking for their father

but instead
might've found trouble.

So you and your friend gonna
save 'em all by yourselves?

If we find them.

We've been traveling
for a while now,

and we just
came across your camp.

I know avoiding people out here
is usually the smart move,

but, um, it's been days
since we've eaten.

And, I know this is a bad idea,

my brain and my friend
both reject it,

but, looks like
my stomach's calling the shots,

and my heart may be in line
with my stomach, so...

What the hell
are you talking about?

Y-You look like good people.

Or...
you feel like good people.

Couldn't find anyone else.

Well, I mean, he was out there.

So what do you want? Says he just
wants food.

If it's not a bother.

Knock yourself out.

I'm Asha.

This is my brother, Dev.

So, you got a name? My name is...

Percy.
Per...

Percy?
But you said...

No, sorry.
I meant...

Shoot.

Hey!

Drop it! Whoa, hey, hey!

Okay, okay.
Sorry, sorry.

This is, just a big...

So, what,
you're a couple con men?

What? W-What is she
talking about, con men?

No.

Technically, he is...
Was... he was, um...

No, we're not here...
He wasn't trying...

He was trying... I'm sorry!

Holy shit!
They were turnips!

Staff Sergeant Mallick.

The Board has reviewed
your two-year covert op

inside Omaha
and its Campus Colony.

Despite some skepticism
regarding the means

by which you chose
to deliver the asset,

you did so successfully
and with minimal expenditure.

Most notably,
your work in Omaha,

some of which has been
redacted in our report,

has earned you full clemency
and a letter of commendation

from Major General Beale
himself.

You furthered the priorities
of the CRM.

Congratulations, Staff Sergeant.

You're cleared to resume
active duty here at the complex.

Hey!

Leo, hey, I've been meaning
to talk to you.

I need to talk to you...
About Iris and Felix.

They weren't where
you said they'd be.

Look, I'm sorry,
but the Lieutenant Colonel

has teams out there
searching... You mean your mother?

I was just told
she's not even looking.

She's off in the Civic Republic
on official business.

I think your mother's lying.
I think you're lying.

Did you manipulate Hope
into lying, too?

Was brainwashing
part of how you got her here?

Hope's alive
because of what I did.

She's here.

And Iris and Felix will be,
too, I promise you...

They trusted you.

They were innocents,
and what you did to them,

what you took from them,

they'll never get that back.

That's what you did.

So I don't give a damn
about how you justify your lies

or who your mother is

or what name you give yourself.

You find my daughter.

Watch out.

We wait for 'em to pass,
we circle back to the horse.

Hyah!

You got more behind you.

Screw waiting.

Go. Go!

Anaerobic bacteria dominate
within the body post-mortem,

resulting in the degradation
of fatty acids.

Hydrogenation, along with
autolysis and putrefaction,

results in the destruction
of soft tissue as seen here.

Go ahead... make faces.

Just be glad you're in here
studyingdecay

and not out there, livingin it.

Fun fact... one of these images
is also my screensaver,

but I'm not saying which one.

Given all of this,

the decelerated
decomposition rate

of a corpse once reanimated...

Hope Bennett.

This is the one day of the week
when we actually apply

the science you're learning
to the state of the world.

But perhaps there's another
aspect of decomposition

you'd be more interested in?

Sorry,
Dr. Ellis.

I'm... I'm good. You sure?

Because if I'm boring you...

If you're asking, you know,
I wouldn't mind

hitting the fermentation angle.

Which is the putrefaction
of organic compounds, right?

When yeast is kept
in an anaerobic environment,

the glycolysis process
releases ethanol,

turns sugar to acids,
gases, or alcohol,

and prevents the growth
of harmful microorganisms

or whatever.

You know, I was just thinking
that if fermentation

can make
an awesome bottle of vodka,

then there has to be more good
that can come out of it.

You know, why focus
on the negative

when there's also
some positives?

She makes a great point.

Although, technically,
in yeast fermentation,

the pyruvate produced
through glycolysis

releases carbon dioxide
beforeethanol.

Obviously.

It produces
a two-carbon compound.

Acetaldehyde. Which is reduced by NADH
to ethanol.

Well, one molecule of ethanol
and two molecules of CO2.

No, it's two molecules
of ethanol.

Actually, I...

Actually, Mason,
Ms. Bennett's right.

And unless you'd like to offer
your own unique analysis

of anaerobic decay, let's pause
the debate, shall we?

Your father's been
researching fungi

as a means
of accelerating decay.

If he hasn't already
looked into yeast,

maybe the two of you should
put your heads together.

It's divergent thinking
like yours

that makes this place
what it is.

Hey, Hope.

Um, are you...
Are you busy later?

Why?

You wanna debate my plans, too?

Deserved.

Um, no, I just...
I got word we were getting

the rest of the day off
in honor of Omaha.

A few of us were gonna
get together later,

take our minds off things.

Thought maybe you'd wanna join?

Look, you guys seem like
a real fun bunch,

but, um, I think
I'm gonna stay in and study.

1:30, sub-basement
directly under lab H,

in case you change your mind.

Whoa!

You good?

Yeah.

Look, they're gonna be
on us soon.

We got to...

What?

Take it!

Come on.

It's safe just past the...
Look out!

Thank you.
Whoa!

Do it!
What?

Do what?! Hey!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

No, no, no, no, no, no!
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop!

Hey!
You got bit!

It's how you live.

Do it!
No, no, no!

I... Kids can wear 'em,
kids can't tear 'em!

The tufted cord and durable
stitch make it bite-proof!

I'm not bit!
Look!

It's like...
cloth armor.

Yeah.

Industrial corduroy.

What?
What, what?

Why is she looking at me
like that?

Hey, be glad she didn't
like your underwear.

I'd never considered
saccharomyces cerevisiae...

or anything

from the brettanomyces lambicus
strain.

You just came up with this
out of the blue?

Yep.

Out of the blue.

Never thought about
brewing yeast in my life.

I know what you're doing.

Dad, I'm not gonna try
and make alcohol here.

Even if I did, the kids
would probably just use it

to sanitize stuff.

You're trying to keep me
distracted.

From...

all of it.

It's like you said.

There's nothing we can do,
right?

So all we can do is just wait

and trust...
that they're okay.

And, you know, who knows,

they could be
way closer than we think.

You know something.

You know something,
and you're not telling me.

I talked to Huck.Wait.

What... What did...
What did she say?
Nothing.

Well, who else
are you talking to? Is she threatening you?

No, no!
Did she do something
to Iris and Felix?

No, Dad, can you just trust me?!

Please?

Can you do that for me,
that one thing for me?

Please?

Of course I trust you.

It was really hard out there.

Okay?
And it's really hard in here.

I don't know.
I...

I guess I just wanted this
to be a distraction...

for me, too.

I know.

You didn't ask for this.

None of us did.

I just...

I wish I could give you
a distraction

from the distraction.

To those who were fighting

to survive in this world,
we remember them.

To our sister city, Omaha.

Omaha!
Hear, hear!

What happened to studying?

You know, didn't seem fair
that I should have to study

for the future alone, so...

Yeah.

Welcome to "The Bunker."

Normally, we're more of
a "fun bunch," but...

Can I show you around?

Hey.

You wanna tell us
where you're taking us?

What kinda cult shit was that?

Maybe...

Maybe if you hadn't tried
to steal from them.

You shoulda listened.

World's a shitshow.

I told you,
you either accept it or you die.

That's just how it is.

Whoa.

Hey.

You got any more of those?

I know I said it before,
but I'm really sorry

about what happened
to your home.

Yeah.

So did you get the stuff
from the Civic Republic?

Just the parts.

Some of it actually came
from Portland.

Just like some of us.

Built everything ourselves.

Ian, you wanna give Hope
the rundown?

Yes.

I constructed the frame,

and then I had to calculate
the distance

between all of the holes
on the game board by hand

because we don't have
a CNC machine.

And then I scavenged some
PVC pipe for the air conduit,

and I used a vac tube
for the fan.

There's a lot more to it,
but I've been talking a lot.

Thanks, Ian.

So, what is yourclaim to fame?

Ooh.

Last month,
in computer-engineering class,

Professor Verschuren
helped me build

a master control panel
for all the labs.

But I kinda co-opted it
to install the sound system.

You won't tell your dad, right?

No promises.

How long have you been here?

About three years now.

Yeah.

Yeah, I did well on a bunch
of tests and, ended up here.

I'm from the CR.

And that's about all
I can say about it.

That's all anyone from there
can say about it.

'Cause they tell you
not to say anything,

or because you believe in
what they're doing?

Little of both, I guess.

And you're okay with being away
from your family

for, like, ever?

Not ever.

All of us from the CR
get to go home

for two weeks every year.

Yeah.

In all honesty, though,
getting to learn from people

like your dad and Dr. Ellis,
it's a real honor.

And I like it here, so...

The soldiers?

You like them, too?

My dad wanted me to go
the military route.

It wasn't for me.

So I just focus on the science.

Stuff we're learning here
is gonna unlock the future.

The people from Portland,
they don't even know

the next time
they get to go home.

It's not perfect.

But I think I recall
someone saying,

"Why focus on the negative
when there's so much positive?"

Ooh.
You down to play a game?

Are you sure?

I won't go easy on you.

I didn't think you would.

I should probably catch up.

Elton, Percy...

We're here.

Wait.
I-I never told you my na...

I still don't understand.

I... I thought you were...

Yeah.

I, Yeah, I thought I was, too.

Is it just you?

Felix and I found Will.

They're... They're out on patrol
right now, helping out.

Yeah. We found this
while we were looking for

our other horse that ran off.

Same horse you happened to find.

What're the odds? Wait.

So you two knew the entire time?

Our mom runs this place.

Iris told her how
you all got separated.

We were just gonna
bring you here,

but when Percy tried
to steal from us,

we decided to...

have some fun.

You got a real screwed-up way
of having fun.

Wait.

Where's Hope?

Okay.

"Blindfolded."

Someone hand me a blindfold.

Can't beat that.

'Cause that's what we do...

We protect each other.

And we always will.

I need you to take me
to Iris and Felix.

Now.

It's been days, okay?

I've been doing everything
that you said!

What the hell have
youbeen doing? Kid...

You said it yourself...
If the CRM finds them first,

or if your mom figures out
what Felix and Iris know...

Did you even check to make sure
that they made it?

There's guards, patrols...
It isn't as easy as you think.

I don't give a shit!

You're gonna go, and you're
gonna take me with you.

You can try and warn
Felix and Iris,

but they're not gonna
listen to you.

Felix probably wants
to kill you.

You need me to go with you.

Okay.
You know I'm right.

We'll go tomorrow.

We'll talk to 'em
and take it from there.

Why not tonight?

Because... Dammit.

My first patrol shift out there
isn't 'til tomorrow.

It's how we get there unnoticed.

It's just one day.

In one day, a whole city
of people got wiped out.

I know you talked to my dad.
Okay?

And if they don't
come back soon,

he's gonna start
stirring shit up.

I want my family back.

I don't understand.

How can Hope just be gone?

I think it was the CRM.

They tried to kill Will.

Why?
I don't know.

I told you, kid...
The world's a damn shitshow.

You either accept it or you die.

It was a routine
assignment to put up signs...

and instead you bring back
two more strays?

They got split up
from their friends.

We should get Indira.

Lieutenant Colonel Kublek
is looking for them... Exactly.

They're putting the whole
community in danger.

You both know full well the
agreement we have with the CRM.

They make us live in their
shadow and play by their rules.

We were here first.

Screw the agreement.

That's not for you to decide.

Was thinking about
the old place on the base.

You reading the paper,
me at the stove.

Some of the best days
of my life.

I know.

I'm a simple guy.

Who definitely overdressed.

No, you look good.

Um, I was actually
just gonna go change.

Well, you don't have to.

You...

You look great.

Hey, what's going on?

That M998 you serviced.

You still got the keys?

Yeah. Why?

I left because of what you did,

try and come back from it.

And while I was gone,
I had to do some things, too.

Some things I hated doing.

But because I left,

five people are alive
who would've been dead.

Does that mean they're alive
because of your mistakes?

Does it mean I should be okay
with how things went?

I wanna be.

And maybe I will.

But right now, I'm still trying
to figure it out,

and I'm sorry, but I can't...

I can't be with you right now.

Dennis, I need you
to give me the keys,

and I need you
to not ask me why.

Please.

Destination
and reason for departure?

Classified business for
Lieutenant Colonel Kublek.

Staff Sergeant Mallick.

Corporal Pierce.

After you left,
I was transferred here

to assume your responsibilities.

I work closely with
the Lieutenant Colonel.

She's an inspiration.

Yes.

She is.

Drive safely, Staff Sergeant.

That's "Verité."

The artist who made it
died at the start.

Now it's a reminder
of everybody we've lost.

That's our "truth."

I'm sorry for what
you've lost, too.

Your friend Silas...

your home...

If I'd known, I wouldn't have...

I, hope we're not

causing too many problems
by being here.

The problems were already here.

My mom founded this place
before the world changed.

Then the CRM came in

and offered us supplies
to help us live.

Making those "hazard" signs,

keeping people from finding
their research place,

that's part of the deal.

We come across anybody,

we pretend the whole place
is contaminated.

So it was all for show?

The flowers
on the empties' eyes...?

"Empties"?

You think they're empty?

We call 'em "vessels."

Some of us think they keep souls
stuck between here

and the next life.

Killing 'em helps
the soul move on.

Well, what about the flowers?

That's just my little
personal touch.

A little beauty in the darkness
left behind.

Any other questions?

Can I get my TuffyStitch back?

We'll see.

Are you sure you know
what you're doing?

This is just 'til their medic
can look it over in the morning.

What?

You seem different.

Um...

I'll need your shirt off
to clean the exit wound.

Or... Or you could...

No, no, it's cool...

wait for a medic.

I, um...

I never got a chance
to thank you for that night.

Surprising me with...

the art in the truck.

That was...

It wasn't anything.

You cut up your art books.

It was.

Yeah, okay, it was.

It was...

It was something.

Wish I coulda been there.

You're here now, so...

Yeah.

It's just...

you know, after what Huck did
to my uncle,

I just...

I know.

They just...

keep taking.

My dad, Hope, Silas,
if he's even still...

But you and Elton, you found us.

It's a second chance.

We just...

We just have to make it count.

Hope?

Does your mother
know you're here?

She doesn't, and she won't.

Plaskett.
Going somewhere?

Looks to me like
he was trying to bail on us.

Hey, you okay?

I can't be here right now.

Where are you going?

I'm trying to get us back
together in a way that's smart.

What's smart is
you staying here.

What do you want?

He's got to learn.

Wha...

This episode
was directed by Aisha Tyler.

She comes to this show
as a huge fan

of "The Walking Dead"
and The Walking Dead Universe,

so she brought a lot
to the episodes.

She really had a huge hand
in bringing to life the sequence

when Elton trips, and suddenly,
he and Percy are surrounded

by these empties
coming out of the leaves.

She had come to me with,
what if they're in the ground,

and suddenly, our characters
are surrounded?

And so, we just brainstormed
a bunch of different versions

of, you know, what are some
cool beats within that action?

And so, we came up together

with the idea of the eye
opening underneath Elton.

The idea of Elton
scrambling back,

and suddenly, an empty
peels its back

off the stump of a tree, and
it's covered in these mushrooms.

And I really loved the idea of
just seeing these empties show

that the world has kind of
overtaken them.

The world has
grown in around them,

but they're still a threat,

and they're still something
to be dealt with.

That was really something
that she brought to the episode,

and the emotion in general
was just fantastic

throughout this episode.

One of the things
we always want to do

when we are introduced
to a new community...

Like, what makes them different?

What makes them unique?

And, you know, one of the things
that the writers and I

talked a lot about was,
how do they view

the dead walking the Earth?

And the thing that
we really found interesting

was that what if they looked
at empties as not just the dead,

but the idea that perhaps
there are still living souls

trapped inside them?

So, the act of killing them
wasn't always in self-defense.

It was also in the spirit
of freeing the souls

within the empties
and letting them go

to that next place,
wherever that place might be.

So, the more we kind of
talked about that,

the more we kind of really
thought that was interesting,

and we wanted to accomplish
a few things.

Like, one, we wanted
to introduce the idea

of this ritual
of freeing the souls.

But we also wanted Dev and Asha
to feel like a threat,

a little menacing to our
dynamic duo of the episode.

So rather than just seeing
Dev and Asha kill empties,

part of that ritual was
scooping out the eyeballs

and then putting flowers
into the sockets.

And it really made for
this very strange, very eerie,

and also very beautiful imagery.

We also wanted
to use this ritual

as a means of creating a sense
of mystery around Dev and Asha.

You know, is this sort of

some weird, odd sacrifice
that they're doing?

What are they praying for
exactly when they're doing this?

And all of those questions
are kind of swirling around,

and it's leaving Percy
and Elton feeling very

sort of off-put by all of it,

and that's definitely
by intention.

We call them Vessels.

Some of us think they keep souls

stuck between here
and the next life.

Any other questions?

Could I get my TuffyStitch back?

We'll see.

Nicolas wore
that TuffyStitch suit

throughout the entire
season last season,

and it was hot last season.

You know, it got probably into
the 100s with the heat index

with all the humidity
layered in.

And so I think that
Nicolas is pretty happy

to take a little break
from it this year.

But, also, for me,
it's like, I always love

seeing characters grow
and seeing them change...

Just not internally,
but also externally.

And, you know, the TuffyStitch
is an armor for Elton.

In a way, I think it helped him
maybe divorce his connection

to the world a little bit.

It was emotional armor
in a lot of ways,

not just physical armor.

And so, you know,
as he's attempting

to immerse himself in this world

and he's realizing
how difficult this world is,

I think he's feeling it more.

And as a result of that,
it was really cool

to see him without the armor

of the TuffyStitch on him
head to toe.

When we left Elton last season,

he'd gone back
to a positive place.

Like, he had just learned
what his mom did,

the fact that his mom
had killed Hope and Iris' mom.

And then, you know,
Hope had then turned around

and killed his mom.

It was something that I think
he was struggling with.

He started to overcome it
at the end of last season,

but what we see this season
is that Elton is pushing back,

and he's choosing
to believe that, you know...

That people are good,
that the world is good.

They have what we need. They seem like
good people.

So did Huck.

Turned out, she was only
good at shootin' people.

Percy is feeling something
very different.

Percy is reeling
from the loss of his uncle.

This person that the group
had come to trust, Huck,

turned out to be this killer.

So, you know, whereas Percy
is sort of wallowing in, like,

how cruel this world can be,
Elton is doing the opposite,

where he's a little bit
in denial about

how cruel this world can be.

And so, there is a sense
of reward that he gets

for believing in Dev and Asha,
believing they're good people,

and that ultimately reunites
he and Percy with Iris.

And so, it seems like
a bit of reward

that he gets from the world
for believing in the world.

But what we then see

is that reward kind of
gets stripped away

when what he learns
after this reunion

is that the CRM is responsible

for the destruction
of their home,

which means everyone that Elton
grew up with, they're all dead.

And that's a huge thing
for Elton to deal with,

and it seems to reinforce
Percy's view of the world.

And so, that really is what
this episode is about for Elton.

How does he choose
to see the world?

Is he in denial
to think it's good?

And that is really the thing
that sets Elton off

on his journey
throughout Season 2.

The end of Episode 3

is a huge turning point
in the season.

Prior to this, our characters

have all been split up,

and they've all gone through
things that are very different,

and they've lived through
different experiences.

Even though it hasn't been a lot
of time, so much has happened.

We know that Hope has been
exposed to the CRM now,

and we know that
from the outside,

Iris' anger towards the CRM
has only grown.

And as we'll see in Episode 4,

like, they're all on
separate pages now.

So this is the beginning
of seeing those threads

start to come together,
and it's just a question

of how things are gonna
go from here,

how this reunion's gonna go,
and that's really gonna

set the stage
for the rest of the season.
