At the gates of Berrington, Zeke and Morgan return as Zeke shouts out.
Zeke: We got the barbwire.
Morgan: Can you open the gate?!
Connor and Bryan open the gate, before Brigg takes the barbwire.
Brigg: Thanks. We can get started on this.
Kyle, Shawn, Sarah, Rocky and Chris approach Zeke and Morgan, before Margaret climbs down from the ladder.
Kyle: Hey, where's Rachel?
Morgan: We don't know.
Sarah: What do you mean you don't fucking know?!
Morgan: We don't know, Sarah. She went to go follow a noise in the woods and told us to take the barbwire back.
Rocky: And you let her go by herself?
Chris: Knowing there's assholes that are kidnapping people out there?!
Morgan: Hey, would you guys back off? My brother and I are not her babysitter. Jesus....
Morgan walks off, before Kyle turns to Zeke.
Kyle: Zeke, where's the last place you saw Rachel?
Zeke: In the woods....east....uh...just so you know. There is a large quarry of infected.
Kyle, Shawn, Sarah, Rocky, Margaret and Chris look amongst each other.
Margaret: How large?
Zeke: Very...any way, we should get started creating this barbwired fence.
Zeke walks off.
Kyle: Goddammit....
Kyle turns to Rocky.
Kyle: Rocky, can you go look for Rachel? It's almost dark and I don't want her out there alone.
Rocky: You got it.
Margaret: I'll go with him.
Kyle: Alright. Stay safe, you two.
Rocky and Margaret leave and head into the woods to search for Rachel. Later on, James, Chris and Brigg build bombs.
Brigg: Where'd you two learn how to do this shit?
Chris: I'm a A.O.W mechanic. Can not only repair, but also build deadly shit.
Brigg turns to James.
Brigg: And you?
James: I've always been interested in using my hands. Been at it since I was a teenager.
Brigg: Well, let's hope that it'll help us save everyone here.
James: It will.
In the woods, Rocky and Margaret walk through the woods. Margaret laughs.
Margaret: Shut the hell up.
Rocky: Dead fucking serious. So there I was, scratching my sack in the wasteland. Open targets in the tombs. All of us sweating, swearing and smoking. Me with my cigar. Sure as fuck beat sitting on our asses 40 clicks to nowhere and then suddenly, a goddamned baby ratclaw ate the keys to our transport.
Margaret: Ratclaws do not eat keys.
Rocky: They did, it did and it shit it out.
Margaret laughs.
Rocky: I shit you not, Margaret.
Margaret: You're an idiot, Rocky.
Rocky: I do not deny it.
