Chapter 9

At the St.John Dairy farm, Lee, Randy, and Danny have returned.

Danny: Man, That was one hell of a ride, huh?

Randy: What?

Lee: Jesus, Danny

Lee responded throwing his rifle over to Danny and caught it

Danny: What? Ya both ain't getting soft on them, are ya? Not after what they did to your friend!

Brenda came down the hill when she has seen them

Brenda: You're back. What happened?

Danny: Handled it, mama.

Danny walks away. Lee and Randy walked up the hill to speak with Brenda.

Brenda: This isn't what Terry would've wanted...

Randy: Terry?

Brenda: My husband. Miss him every day.

Suddenly Lilly's voice shot up. They saw Kenny and Lilly mad at each other

Lilly: Then screw it up for everybody then, why don't you?!

Kenny: Oh calm down, princess. I'll do it myself.

Kenny walks away and Lilly does so too. Lee and Randy turns to Brenda

Lee: What's going on with them?

Brenda: Dunno. Squabblin' looks like. A lotta tension with y'all, huh?

Randy: Don't mind them. It's how they are. Each of them wants to be in charge.

Lee: Randy's right. They have different ideas about how we should run our group. If they don't find any common ground, this whole thing's gonna fall apart.

Brenda: Well, it's probably just the hunger talkin'. We all get a little testy. We'll fix that shortly.

Lee and Randy looks down

Brenda: And Lee, Randy, don't worry about the bandits. I'm sorry ya both seen more violence than I'da thought in your short time, but ya'll are safe here. Don't worry.

Lee: Think I'll go have a look around.

Randy: Yeah, me too.

Brenda: Don't wander too far. Dinner will be ready before you know it. And thank your friend Katjaa again for me. She and the kids are in the barn with the cow. That woman is a life saver

Randy: Good to know that.

Lee and Randy walk away. Howard meets up with them.

Howard: Lee, Cunningham, you're back.

Lee: Yeah...

Howard: What happened?

Lee: We were trying to find the bandits. We found their camp but they weren't there. I also found Clementine's hat there.

Howard: Clementine's hat? I did her hat get to the camp?

Randy: The woman named Jolene stole it.

Lee: Yeah, we got ambushed by her. She was talking about how the Save-Lots and "Amanda" took her daughter away. She was also to tell us something but Danny shoots her before she could finish.

Howard: Holy Cheese! What the juice did Danny do that for?!

Randy: I don't know, Howard... So Lee, what do we do?

Lee:... I don't know if we should trust the St. Johns now.

Howard: I agree.

Randy: Ok but let's go back in the barn, give Clem her hat back.
