An unidentified person carries a dead roe deer through the forest, holding it by its legs. The smell of the animal attracts the Walkers in the courtyard. Someone threw rocks at them to get their attention. They turn around and see the roe deer lying on the floor of the courtyard. They begin to eat it. Someone cut the deer in half. The other half is hanging in the prison corridor of an opened door. The same unidentified person came out through another entry of the prison and opened the door leading to the courtyard with an axe. He then put the deer’s heart on the floor next to the open the door to attract more Walkers towards the prison.
While this is going on, Kagome is inside, examining Hershel's bite. She checked him for fever and made sure that the wound wasn't festering. Kagome smiled at Hershel, “It looks good; you're healing just fine, Hershel.”
“Thanks to you,” Hershel said and squeezed Kagome's arm.
Kagome patted his arm and told him to rest awhile. After that, Kagome checked Lori to see how she was doing; she found her lying on her bunk in her cell, “How are you feeling,” Kagome asked.
“Fine, I've been having some twinges in my back all morning,” Lori said.
Kagome did a pelvic examination and determined that Lori would be giving birth sometime that day or the following, “You haven't dilated a lot yet, but you're getting there,” Kagome told her.
Lori nodded, “So, take it easy for the rest of the day,” Kagome told her.
“Thank you, Kagome,” Lori said and laid back down.
Kagome smiled at Lori and squeezed her hand, “If you need anything, send someone to come get me.”
“Okay.”
Kagome left Lori and decided to go outside and get some sun. She met up with Amy and Sophia on her way down to where Rick and Daryl and the others were. They were busy bringing the cars into the prison yard so that, if necessary, they could make a quick escape, “Alright, let’s get the other cars in. We’ll park ‘em in the west entry of the yard.”
“Good. Our vehicles camped out there look like a giant “vacancy” sign!”
“After that, we'll load up the corpses so we can burn them.”
“It's gonna be a long day,” T-Dog said with a sigh.
At that moment, Kagome, Amy, and Sophia walked out into the yard. Rick turned around when he heard the cellblock door open, and he smiled at Kagome as she walked towards them. Kagome beamed at Rick as she walked towards him and hugged him. Rick leaned down and kissed Kagome, “How are your patients, Doctor?”
“Good, Hershel's wound is healing nicely; he can walk around with minimal pain, and Lori should be giving birth any time now.”
“Good, and when she does, we'll be ready,” Rick said as he hugged Kagome around the waist.
Amy, who had her arm around Daryl, looked around and noticed that Maggie and Glenn were missing, “Where are Maggie and Glenn,” She asked.
“Up in the guard tower,” Daryl told her.
“The guard tower? Weren't they up there last night,” Rick asked.
“Leave them alone, Rick. We were in the other one, the night before,” Kagome told him.
“Shh,” Rick said and started to blush. Everyone around them started to chuckle.
“Glenn, Maggie,” Daryl yelled.
Glenn came stumbling out of the guard tower without a shirt and buttoning his pants; everyone laughed, “You coming,” Daryl asked.
“What?”
