When the malicious Governor of Woodbury takes hostages from a group of survivors living at a nearby prison, his daughter is the one to betray him and break them out and, better yet, go with them back to the prison. What started as just a plan to annoy her father led her her finding a certain someone that she'd never forget -- and may always be with, if the world of terror lying beyond the prison fences doesn't take them down with it in the end.

Rick and the group have moved on from Alexandria. They were on the road until they found a safe place to stay. Carl starts dreaming about his dreamgirl. While Alexis, the new girl, is trying to fit in with everyone. Will the group be able to survive? Will fantasy become reality? Or will reality become fantasy? Will Carl ever find the "perfect" girl? Or will he only bump into dead ones?
