Did he try to break it for you?
Your soldiers are loyal to you.
I think they're worried we're gonna execute you.
If I was getting executed, Isaac would've come himself.
There was a shooting near the borderline between us and the Scars.
Treaty might be broken. He's dealing with that now.
If it's war again, we're gonna need all the soldiers we have.
So he's wondering why you apparently killed some of your own men.
Including Leon.
Leon?
Leon.
Jesus.
What happened?
- My unit is responsible for... - Securing the hospital.
I know your orders. I gave them, Elise. What happened?
We cleared the ground floor up to the sixth.
A few scattered infected here or there. Nothing we couldn't handle.
All that was left was the basement.
B1, B2, B3.
We were expecting the worst, the kind of environment they like.
Plus, the old-timers said that down there
was where they brought the first Cordyceps patients in '03.
On top of that, we had an access problem.
These stairwells here, here, and here caved in
and all the elevator cars were stuck in their shafts
just below ground level.
The only way in or out of the basement is here, this stairwell.
So yesterday, that's where I sent a squad, down to B1.
- And? - Nothing.
The whole floor was empty, not even rats.
So today, B2, hoping for more of the same, I sent another squad down
and I put Leon in charge 'cause
he's my best.
A few minutes in, he radios back.
There's Cordyceps on the walls, the floor.
Chances are, they'll find infected next, but that's what they were down there for
so I told him to proceed.
Five minutes later, he radios again.
This time, he...
he was struggling to breathe.
He could hardly talk.
I thought maybe he had been bit.
I said, "Leon, were you bit?" He said...
He said, "It's in the air."
He said, "It's in the air.
Seal us in."
And I knew it wasn't in the vents
or we would've all been infected weeks ago.
So, I scrambled my other team and we locked the only door to B2
and we locked the only door to B1.
And we did what Leon said.
We sealed them in.
Nothing else has gotten out?
No one else has gotten sick?
Okay.
The hospital's a resource we can't afford to lose.
I'll inform only the people who absolutely need to know, and no one else.
As far as I'm concerned, Sergeant Park,
you resolved the situation permanently and heroically.
We owe you a debt.
I'm sorry about your son.
Patrol 14 heading north to 13th and Bradford.
One mile out.
One mile out. Copy.
Mobile three.
Possible movement at the convention center.
- What? - Lights.
Oh, good.
They have a big-ass generator down there. Natural gas, baby.
- You figure it out yet? - Gettin' there.
You'll find a safe way to get us to the hospital though, right?
Can I help?
No.
Why, because I'm stupid?
That's not the word I would use.
Really? What word then?
Non-school-oriented.
Fuck you, I went to school. Let me help.
I'm triangulating.
- Do you know how that works? - Yes.
With triangles.
It's pretty standard.
I get a bearing of their troop movements, and then triangulate back to their bases.
I'm estimating angles, though.
I mean, if I had a protractor, it would be a lot more accurate.
Oh, I actually brought a protractor.
- You did? - No.
I don't know what that is, and I hated math.
I'm gonna leave you alone now and go and explore
the rest of this place, because you're smart as fuck
and you're figuring it out.
- Ellie. - Yes?
If I ever were to lose you
Did you figure it out?
I think so, yeah.
Good.
We follow a safe path west until this spot.
Here, let me show you.
They run a line of patrols north and south, like this.
They're pretty evenly spread out, so they're watching that entire area.
But there's a gap between here and here.
Now, on this map, do you see this long-ass building?
Yeah.
So, we cut through and slip by.
What is that long-ass building?
No clue.
But it's set off from the residential area
so maybe it's a warehouse or something.
It's a big fucking something for them just to ignore.
Why aren't they patrolling it?
- Infected. - Probably.
If we make it through, we pop out behind their patrols.
The hospital's maybe a quarter mile from there.
Nora should be on the first floor, far end of the North Wing.
Wait, how the fuck do you know that?
They never shut up. I hear everything.
Morons. Middle of a fucking war
and they're just broadcasting their positions.
Yeah, so I've been thinking about that.
You know these people they're fighting, the Scars?
We already know they use bows and arrows, right?
And they seem culty, or at least really religious.
- You ever hear of Amish people? - Amish people? No.
Well, they were around back in '03, Pennsylvania mostly.
But they chose to live like it was the 1800s.
Maybe the Scars are like that? No electricity or technology.
Because these motherfuckers talk on the radio
like they know no one's listening.
Yeah, and they didn't care that a walkie was missing.
It's good. They're overconfident.
- It gives us an edge. - It does.
But what we're doing is reckless, so kind of a wash.
If we were to leave now, it'd be dark by the time
we got to the big fucking something, right?
Let's go be reckless.
Are you sure this way is safe?
You don't trust me?
I trust you. I don't trust Seattle.
Me neither, but let's just talk like everything's fine
because if I get too anxious, I'm gonna barf again.
Alright, how 'bout this?
What are you gonna name it?
Oh, if it's a girl, Ellie.
If it's a boy, Elijah.
- Really? - No.
Why? It's a cool name.
What the fuck?
We shouldn't be here.
We shouldn't have come. I shouldn't have dragged you here.
You're having a fucking baby. What am I doing?
Dina, do you wanna go back?
I'll take you back. You don't need to do this with me.
I'm so fucking stupid.
You know, you never asked me about the first person I killed.
Okay. Who?
When I was little, we lived in a cabin in a forest north of Santa Fe.
And there were scattered families around, but mostly it was just us alone.
And I would get so bored cooped up with my mom
and sister, I would just beg them, "Just let me play outside."
But my mom was scared
and she wouldn't let me go outside alone.
But one day, I just fucking did
and I had a gun, so who's gonna fuck with me?
Now, you already know how this story ends
because I don't live in a cabin north of Santa Fe anymore
and I don't have a mom or sister anymore.
But since everyone's past is fucked
and we've all heard everyone's fucked stories,
how do you think this one goes?
I don't know. Raiders?
Just one. And then?
You got home. They were dead, he was gone.
Almost. He was still there.
I heard them screaming and I ran back with my gun out
but I was too slow because I was fucking eight.
And when he heard me, he turned around, and he looked really startled.
And when I shot him, he looked more startled.
Fuck, I'm so sorry. I didn't know, I thought...
- How did you get to Jackson? - It doesn't matter.
This is what matters.
Whatever reason Joel gave those people to do what they did,
he didn't deserve that.
And I think, what if I hadn't snuck out?
What if my mom and sister were beaten to death in front of me?
What if that motherfucker made me watch as he did it?
Would it make a difference if my family had hurt his people first?
No.
And if I hadn't killed him,
if he had gotten away,
I promise you, I would have hunted him down forever.
Forever.
I'll go back, if you want.
And I'll keep going, if you want.
There's no right answer.
If I die, it's on me.
It won't be your fault.
So, what do you want to do?
Keep going.
- Do you see anything? - No. Let's go.
Hurry! Down, down, down.
Cover me.
At least we're not blocked in.
And there are two more positives.
The search lights are up high to scan the outside,
which means there'll be no line of sight to the inside.
Good. What's the other positive?
That door's open, and nothing's come out to kill us, yet.
- Great. - Maybe.
- I'm gonna take a peek. - Yeah, you should do that
because you're the one who can't get infected.
How's it look?
Haunted, but empty.
Oh, just like us.
Look, I'm not saying there won't be infected somewhere in there.
In fact, there's no fucking way this entire place is empty.
But simple logic, it's not gonna be a horde, right?
We're not underground, and the Wolves
are right next door with their vehicles and lights.
A horde's not gonna ignore that shit.
So what, we've got maybe a few strays and a couple clickers?
We can handle that. We've done it like a million times.
Yeah. We'll be okay.
But shooting has to be a last resort, okay?
Because if the Wolves hear gunfire,
- then we'll have a whole army up our ass. - Fine.
- Ellie. - What?
If it gets bad, and we have to make a choice
between shooting or running, we run.
Last resort, I got it.
Oh, you think that no matter what happens, I'm just gonna start firing?
Literally every single time. Yes.
Don't get angry. You're a little crazy.
And that's exciting. It's one of the reasons I love you.
But I do wanna make it out of here.
You love me?
- I re... - Oh, I know.
So, tell me again, what's the plan?
Knives or run.
Okay, Crazy.
Here we go.
So far, so good.
Wait.
Do you hear something?
No.
So, this way then?
Yeah.
Lots of windows in here. Let's be careful.
Okay.
Dina.
What the fuck is that? And why is it hiding?
I think it's a smart one,
like the one that stalked me at the supermarket.
Okay, but you killed that one, so we can kill this one too, right?
Yes, I killed it. Not before it got me.
- It fucking bit you? - What was I supposed to do, tell you?
You would've...
Listen, if it's like the other one,
it's gonna be fast and it's gonna be sneaky.
But this time, it's two on one.
Now, that fucker's gonna try to flank us, so I say we flank it first.
We split up. Whichever one it follows,
the other one comes up and takes it out from behind.
Plan?
Plan.
- What do we do? - I don't know.
Let's go back the way we came.
If we run, they're gonna chase so we have to go slow.
You see that fencing over there? I'm gonna lure as many as I can.
You're gonna run in there, secure the gate,
secure it however you can, and stay in there.
Dina. I can get bit a lot. You can't. Do as I say.
Go!
- Did you get bit? - What? No.
She's okay.
I was watching. They didn't bite her.
Jesse, I swear.
We gotta go.
Move! Move! Move!
Don't stop! Keep going!
I'll shoot 'em! Go!
Heading west!
Over there! Over there!
The park! We can lose 'em in there. Come on!
Stop. Stop. We don't go in there.
Looks like five, three unknowns, chased into the park. Heavily armed.
- Not Scars. - What are they doing?
If they try and come out, shoot 'em.
Not coming in the park.
You gotta be kidding me.
Great. More infected.
Maybe, but we can't go back that way.
Come on.
Jesse.
- What? - How did you find us?
The map you left in the theater.
Impressive triangulation, by the way.
Thanks, that was all Dina.
Trust me, I didn't think it was you.
How did you find the theater?
Do I look like I wanna fucking talk to you right now?
You came alone?
No. Me and Tommy.
We split up when we got to the city.
- Cover more ground. - I can't believe they sent you after us.
They didn't, but you two were gonna die out here
so we snuck out the next night. And it's a good thing we did.
You know what, we were doing pretty fucking good
- up until... - Up until what?
Until we weren't.
Is Tommy okay?
Hopefully.
We're supposed to rendezvous in the morning.
- So, what now? - Find a way out,
get back to the theater, shelter for the night.
Meet up with Tommy, and then we all go home.
- No. - Ellie.
What the fuck is that?
Hey. Go.
No, wait, please. Please, please, please!
I'm not like the others. Please.
No, no, no, wait. Wait, wait, I'll join!
- I'll join you. I'll join. - Too late, Wolf.
No, no. No, no, no, wait! I know things.
I know what Isaac is planning. I can help you. I can...
We have no interest in your words.
"For the corrupted soul knows only lies."
So taught the Prophet.
May She guide us.
No. No. No. No. No.
No. No, no, no. Please, please, please. No.
No. No.
No! No! No!
No.
Oh, please, please, no.
He is nested in sin.
- No, no. - Free him,
that he may know Her love.
No, no. No, no, no, no.
Please, please, please, no.
Now, he is free.
Oh, fuck!
I'll lead them away. Get her out. Go!
I'll meet you back at the theater. Fucking go!
You won't get away, Wolf. She sees you.
She watches over us all.
He's not here.
- May She guide us. - May She guide us.
Alright, spread out. Keep moving.
What do we got?
Not sure. Checking it out.
Come on, Bonnie.
It was a critter or something.
All clear.
You're all set.
Put that shit down.
Hands up. Turn around.
You remember me?
Yeah, you remember me.
- What do you want? - Where's Abby?
- I don't know. - Yes, you do.
You shoot me, the sound will have every soldier come running.
You'll still be dead.
Tell me where she is and maybe I let you go.
- We could've killed you. - Maybe you should have.
Or maybe you should've stayed the fuck out of Jackson, Nora.
Where's Abby?
I'm sorry you saw it happen.
No one should ever have to see something like that.
- Stop it. - Sometimes at night,
I still hear his screams.
It was a terrible thing, the way he died.
Yeah.
Yeah, the little bitch got what he deserved.
Motherfucker!
Intruder!
Hey! Shoot her!
Oh, no, no, no, no.
Nora, you're gonna fucking die!
Nora!
Fuck, it's open.
The fucking shaft is open!
- Seal off the hallway! - Back, back, back!
The shaft is open.
You stupid bitch.
Spores.
We're breathing spores.
We're infected.
You killed us both.
Did I?
You're...
You're her.
The immune girl, you're...
You're real.
Yeah.
Where's Abby?
Don't you know what he did?
- I don't care. - You don't care?
He killed everyone in that hospital.
Including the only fucking person alive that could make a cure from you.
That was Abby's father.
And Joel...
Joel shot him in the head.
That's what he did.
I know.
Where's Abby?
No.
Where is she?
No.
Where is she?
No.
Where is she?!
Hey, kiddo.
Hi.
