The group continues to search for another place in which to settle down. They are despondent, and dealing with grief, PTSD, hunger, and thirst.
They come across bottles of water on the road, ones that were supposedly left specifically for them. They are suspicious of the offer, though, and refuse to take the water. They soon find a barn to shelter themselves from an approaching storm. As they rest, they are soon awakened by the sound of walkers trying to break in. Each group member eventually lends a hand to help keep the barn door shut.
The next morning, Maggie and Sasha sit on a downed tree, as they watch a sunrise and converse. Their talk is interrupted by a man named Aaron, who asks to meet the man in charge. He then surprises them by referring specifically to Rick.
