Will and his group made it back to Yankton as the rain continued to slam down on them. An Indian woman stood there. Rifle in her hands. "Lori!" Will shouted at the woman. She looked down at them and nodded her head toward them. "They're back!" Lori shouted. "Thank fucking god!" Joe, leader of security, praised. "Open the gates." Joe ordered.

"Ready to break the bad news?" Will said to them.

The gates opened, and Joe walked out to them. "Thank god you're still alive. It's been a few days. We thou-" Joe interrupted himself when he saw they were empty handed. Will let out a sigh and crossed his arms. Shaking his head. "Nothing?" Joe asked. Will looked at him with a frown. Joe sighed with disappointment. "I'll take you to Murphy. He'll say what he has to say, and we'll sort this shit out." Joe said.

Lori slid down the ladder. A clear scowl on her face. "Nothing huh?" She huffed. "Not now Lori. It's been a shitty few days." Will said. "That girl, Katey, was asking about you." Joe said. "Poor kid." Will muttered.

An Asian teenager caught Abigail's attention. She glared at him and said, "I'll catch up with y'all." And started walking toward him. Clementine followed her. "Kyle!" Abigail said to him. "Oh... hey, Abigail." He nervously said. "What's y'er fuckin' deal, huh!?" She said, shoving his left shoulder. "W-what?" He asked. "The rifle you gave us was jammed." Clementine said. "Because a' you," Abigail said, planting her finger into Kyle's chest. "If walkers or runners surrounded us, we woulda been killed." "I... uhhh..." Kyle muttered. "Lost f'er words?" Abigail said to him. Kyle frowned at her. "I'm sorry Abigail. Really, I am." He said. "Yeah, 'cause that'd bring us back from the dead. Wouldn't it?" Abigail said.

Kyle frowned at the ground. "C'mon, Clem." Abigail said as she walked off. Kyle planted his hands into his dark blue sweaters pockets.

"Don't worry about her, Kyle. It's been a few days since she got a good nights rest." Clementine said. Kyle nodded. "Yeah, I understand. I'll try better next time. Don't worry." He said. Clementine slightly smiled. "I appreciate that." Clementine said. Kyle smiled at her. "Well, talk to you later." Clementine said. Kyle nodded. "Alright." He said. Clementine waved at him and walked off. "Oh, Clem?" Kyle asked. Clementine turned to him. "I... can you..." Clementine smiled. "I'll talk to her." She told him. Kyle smiled. "Thanks." He said. Clementine nodded and continued her walk to Murphy's office.
