The Walking Dead

Previously on "The Walking Dead"...

You need to see a doctor.

I have a meeting with Pamela Milton later.

Someone like me would never meet Ms. Milton.

Why not?

You have to know your place.

- Hey! - I did nothing wrong,

- Hey! - I swear!

- - Oh, my God! What did you do?!

Don't you know who that is?

Got something coming!

Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.

We're all friends.

They're here to help.

You've fallen on hard times.

I have an interesting choice to offer.

Man, that's... that's enough.

Yeah, man. No problem, man.

Did great in there, buddy.

You were very brave.

H-Hey!

Don't worry, li'l dude. You're home, see?

Safe and sound.

Apples?

Come on. Let's go take a look.

- _ -

Thank you.

I'll take a witch hat.

Good choice. - Thank you.

Hey! You're one of the new people, right?

I heard you all lived out in the wasteland,

killing rotters?

- Yeah, I guess. - Cool.

So, there's probably nothing you're afraid of, huh?

Come on, I'll show you where all the good candy's at.

And I'm Mei.

Jude.

Cool name.

So, uh, what do you think?

It takes a minute to get used to all this, you know?

You know, this place was up and running

long before we ever got here.

Maybe we don't have to do anything to make it work.

No, there's always something you got to do to make it work.

- - Want another one?

Oh, hello! Happy Halloween!

And here's one for you...

and one for you.

They're delicious, aren't they? You like 'em?

And first place goes to...

dressed as our very own Mercer...

Celeste!

And this year's grand prize is...

10 lottery tickets!

Let's take some pictures.

Thank you all for coming out today.

You all look fantastic,

and I'm so happy you're out here for Halloween.

I always thought she was so classy.

I never knew anything about her.

Mm, I used to read a lot of tabloids.

Hey! You two look busy.

Connie's reporting for the paper.

We've got a full day.

How's work?

"It's nice to be reporting again,

but Commonwealth news isn't exactly...

...hard-hitting."

Have you, uh, met Pamela yet?

"I interviewed her once, before the world fell."

Yeah, and you also got her uncle kicked out of Congress, so...

That was you?

"We gotta go.

We have a lot to do before the masquerade ball."

See you later.

You should ask her to dance.

I gotta get to work.

Hey. Catch up later?

Yeah. See ya later.

Thanks for watching Coco.

I'll come by tonight to pick her up.

You know, why don't I just keep her overnight?

You're sure to be exhausted after the late shift.

You sure?

Yeah, of course.

Okay, well, thank you.

I'll, uh... I'll get her before your Bible study.

Okay.

- - Shh, shh, shh.

Aww! Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

Thank you. Bye.

- Hi. - Hey.

- How's the place? Getting any better? - Hell, no.

No, I think this place is literally made out of paper.

You sleeping?

Nah. No, no.

Can't wait 'til basic's over and we get new apartments

Worrying about money again is so weird.

It's not forever.

Ready, set, go!

Tide's turning and Ezra's back in the game!

Just when we thought it was over.

There is no telling how this ends!

Ezekiel, come play!

Nothing I'd love more,

but I gotta take care of these little guys.

- Us too. - Okay.

Okay, okay, let's thank Ezekiel

for letting us use Shiva's collar, huh?

It was the cherry on top of that sweet costume, right?

Sorry, bud. We gotta give it back.

You know, Ezra...

your dad saved this from Hilltop when it burned

because he knew how precious it was to me.

But there's something actually more precious,

and that is your family.

So this leash is yours, on two conditions.

One, that it always makes you as happy as it made me.

And two, that you honor Shiva's memory

and always think of her when you play with it.

You have fun, buddy.

Ezekiel, you sure?

Yeah, just be careful. It's a chain.

Who's hungry? Yeah?

Looks like they had fun today.

Oh, I think it was good for everybody.

Yeah.

How are you feeling?

Also good.

- Excuse me. - Mm.

How was your doctor's appointment?

Fine. No changes.

Have you heard from Maggie or Lydia?

I'm sure they're okay.

Are you?

On a beautiful day like today?

Never better.

Oh, gosh. I'm so sorry!

I'm... I'm such a klutz!

Carol?

What are you doing here?

Sorry.

Snooping.

I was worried about Ezekiel.

What do you want to know?

Well, I know that he needs surgery,

and I know that he's in line.

How long before you get to number 147?

Too long.

Patients aren't aware of their place in line,

so can you do me a favor and keep that yourself?

Mm-hmm. Of course.

Does Ezekiel know how bad his chances are?

He knows the odds aren't good.

But he doesn't know

there's likely no chance he'll get the surgery

unless by some miracle he moves up the line.

I'm sorry. I wish I could do more.
