Everyone walks through the empty streets of Savannah. Lee, Ben, Christa, Kenny, and I have drawn our pistols, and Chuck carries a shovel. Omid limps along, his injured leg now bandaged. Clementine and I walks beside Lee and Clementine looks at her walkie-talkie attached to his hip.

Clementine: Can't I just hold it? Just for a little while? We're getting real close to where my mom and dad are, maybe I can--

Lee: Not now, I need you to focus. Keep your attention on the street. 

Clementine: Okay, sorry.

Shane: Don't worry, Clem. Lee will still help you find your parents. 

Clementine: Yeah, I know he will. 

Lee: How's Omid?

Christa: His leg's pretty bad. 

Omid: I'm fine. 

Christa: You're not fine, you need to rest. He needs to rest. 

Lee: Yeah, you're right. Kenny, hold up. Kenny, goddamn it! I said hold up! Omid needs to take a break, let's give him a minute. 

Kenny: We're almost at the river, almost to the boats. 

Lee: Then it won't hurt to stop for just one damn minute. 

Kenny keeps walking. 

The belltower starts ringing. 

Ben: What the hell... ? 

Christa: Maybe this city's not so dead after all...

Kenny: Keep moving. No one's ringing that bell, it's automatic, on a timer. 

Lee: (checks watch) What kind of church bell goes off at twenty past the hour?

Lee and I notices a figure climbing on the rooftop. 

Lee: Someone's up there. 

Shane: I saw it too.

Ben: Are you sure? I don't see anything.

Lee: I know what I saw. I'm telling you, there's someone up in that belltower! Someone alive!

The radio crackles.

Stranger: If I were you, I'd get out of the street. Now. 

Christa: I thought you said that thing didn't work!

Lee presses the button on the radio. 

Lee: Who the hell is this?! Hello? Hello? I said answer me!

Omid: What the hell was that? Is someone trying to fuck with us? 

Ben: Sounded more like a warning.

Chuck: "Ask not for whom the bell tolls..."

Kenny: What are you yammerin' on about? 

Chuck: "It tolls for tree..."

Dozens of walkers start to approach the group. The bell has stopped tolling. 

Lee: Everybody, RUN!

The group kills several walkers and run through the street. A walker trapped under a car grabs onto Kenny's ankle, making him fall and drop his gun. He grabs onto a pole and tries to pull himself toward the weapon. I shoots the walker off of Kenny.

Kenny: Little too close, don't ya think?

Clementine: Ben!

Ben and Clementine are corned against a brick wall by walkers.
