(The next day everyone is up, Elisa was cleaning her knife sitting in a corner of the barn)

(As she looks through the window, the barn door opens)

-Hey, we're back...(Said Maggie as she entered in the barn)

(Elisa looks at them and then sees a man coming in after Maggie, everyone gets up, Elisa stays behind)

-Let me introduce you to Aaron...(Say Maggie)

(Daryl steps forward to close the barn door)

-He came to meet us outside... he is alone, we took his equipment and his gun...(Continue Maggie)

(Daryl searches him, everyone looks at him)

-Hello...(He say)

(Judith starts crying, Rick hands it to Carl who has picked her up)

-Nice to meet you...(Aaron said as he walked up to Rick)

-You said he had a gun....(Ask Rick to Maggie)

-Yeah...(Maggie replies, walking up to him to give him the gun)

(Rick unloads the gun and stores it in his back pocket of his pants)

-What do you want...? (Ask Rick)

-He has a camp very close to here, he wants to give us an audition to get us in...(Replied Sasha)

-I... I didn't really find any other words... Audition is a bit of a dance contest but rest assured it's just on Friday night...

(Everyone watches him without saying anything)

-And it's not a camp, it's...it's a community, and I believe that you will make recruits of great value, but it's not me who decides....my job is just to convince you to follow me there...

-I know., if i were you i wouldn't go either...not without knowing what exactly awaits me... Sasha can you give my bag to Rick...?

(Sasha hesitates for a moment before walking towards Rick)

-In the front pocket, there is an envelope... I knew that you would not agree to come with me at the at the simple mention of our community, that's why i brought you this...

-I apologize in advance for the poor quality of the images, we found an old labor-

-Everyone dont give a fuck...(Daryl said as he cut him)

(Aaron turns to him)

-Yeah, you're absolutely right...

(Rick takes the pictures out of the bag)

-This is the first picture i wanted to show you, because anything i can say won't matter until you're sure you're safe...If you join us, you will be safe...

(Elisa looks at Carl who listens attentively to Aaron)

-Each panel of this wall is a solid steel plate measuring 5 by 4 meters, supported by cold-rolled posts and joisters...

(Rick stands up)

-No intruder, dead or alive, can enter our home without our consent...As i said, security is important but....There is yet another resource that is more essential to the survival of our community, the numbers...
