They've lost two havens that weren't as safe as they originally thought. Now they've found the best place they could imagine, but the walkers are no longer their biggest concern.
Rick and MJ's group must survive the dead, the living, and the forces...

"What's wrong, Peaches?" Dana asks as she sits next to her cousin in their cell.
"Nothing." Ellie looks up at her. "I was just thinking."
"About what?"
"This." She holds up her ring — a small silver one. It's the one with the anti-possession symbol that MJ used to wear. She gave it to Ellie after they left the farm months ago and told her never to take it off. "Mom said that it's to protect us from the people with the black eyes." She says, and Dana nods.
"I have a charm on my necklace." She shows her one of the two necklaces that she's wearing.
"And Mom has a tattoo, right?"
"Yep. Just like your dad, my parents, Grandpa, Jack, and Uncle Sam." Dana tells her. "You're scared, aren't you?"
"Sometimes." Ellie nods. "What if the people with the black eyes come? We don't have protection for everyone."
"That's why your mom drew the devil's trap outside the door. She, my mom, Jo, and my grandma drew more around the prison too, some of them hidden." She says. "And they have an angel blade to protect us. And we can call Gabriel if we have to."
"But what if they hurt someone?"
"They won't. We're stronger than that, Peaches." Dana says. "We're Winchesters."

"Why didn't anyone wake me?" MJ asks as she walks over to Rick, Daryl, T, Addy, Dana, and Carol in the field. "I thought I was helping with everything today."
"We thought you could use a little extra sleep." Rick tells her.
"We all hear you up late at night." Carol says.
"Oh. Sorry." MJ glances between them. "I don't mean to be loud."
"Cellblock echoes." T tells her. "Not your fault."
"Why aren't you sleeping at night?" Rick asks, and she looks down.
"I thought we weren't keeping secrets anymore." Addy says.
"No, I just..." She sighs, shaking her head. "I get nightmares, and they suck. And if it's not the nightmares, then it's Gabriel being annoying. He pops in on my dreams, and... I don't know, tries to be the angel on my shoulder, I guess. Can we move on now, please?"
