The Walking Dead: World Beyond

If the CRM would've destroyed Omaha,

it would've gone through my mother.She's lying to you.

I'm the closest thing to a friend in the CR you got.

So, Dad's happy? Hope: He has a girlfriend.

-You're gonna turn yourselves in? -That's our plan.

Asha: What if we turned you in, made it look like we caught you?

We need to talk.

But these are coded CRM transmissions

proving that the military brought in those empties.

The new TS has arrived?As you requested.

Until further notice, you'll be answering to me.

Will: Hold fire. I got it.

Everybody okay?

Leo, you good?

Yeah, yeah. Just another day at the office.

Sorry about that. A small column we were tracking dipped south,

a little too close for comfort.

We'll wait it out here for a few minutes,

until our disruption charges turn them around.

Will: Charges might draw more incoming from the south.

We'll scout ahead.

Are all your research expeditions this exciting?

Almost never.

No, don't!

It's one of ours.

Its geo-tracker must've malfunctioned again.

I thought the hard reset coding would've fixed the issue.

Apparently not.

Just hold him while I try a diagnostic.

We fireproofed the bio-recorder's data box,

just in case.

Oh, that's okay, Dr. Bennett.

Please, just call me Leo.

Alright then, Leo.

So, uh, what do you think

of our humble little research facility so far?

It's remarkable.

The infrastructure, the equipment.

It's -- It's beyond anything I'd imagined.

Geo-glitches aside...

...I can't wait to see more.

From what I can gather, it's coded data from field tests

conducted in the aftermath of what appears to be

some sort of large-scale chemical event.

This "V" symbol seen over and over --

It must be referencing a specific project here at the facility.

Wait, so the CRM used a chemical weapon

to kill everybody back home?

Then lured the empties in to cover it up.

That has to be it, right?

We have exactly two minutes to meet Silas at the back terminal.

You sure these are legit, doc?

They're not some, uh, new con she's planning?

No, no. The specificity here -- whatever this is, it's real.

And it's been going on right under my nose this entire time.

Okay, well, maybe the scientists in on it didn't know or --

or they're working against their will.

Or maybe they knew exactly what they were doing

and just didn't care.

Okay, we have to make a decision now

or the decision gets made for us.

Are we leaving or are we staying?

We have to stay.

These are people's lives we're talking about.

Portland needs to know.

We have to figure out what's going on,

what -- what all this means.

Felix: Okay.

We need to leave word for Will and Elton.

What are we gonna do about Silas?

I told Silas not to wait for us if we didn't show,

to go back to the Outpost until we figured things out.

We just have to hope that's what he did.

That's it, then? You're scrapping the escape plan?

Hope's right. We need answers.

And then what?

Then we make sure they don't get away with it.

Okay, then. Let's get some answers.

Iris: Why would the CRM wipe out two whole communities?

For the research, or was the research just part of it?

That's what I'm trying to find out.

Felix: You were a mole in both places.

If anyone would know, it's you.

I told you, I was just part of a standard observe and report mission.

At least, until --Until it became about me.

My mother was the one who oversaw the CR's dealings

between Omaha and the Campus Colony.

I was nobody.

Yeah, so shooting me and killing my uncle was your call.

Killing everybody else was hers?

Is that about right?

Only Major General Beale

could've authorized something this big.

But yeah.

My mom would've seen the order.

You don't have any idea why they'd do something like this?

Even before they formed the Alliance

with Omaha and Portland,

the Civic Republic kept its location hidden

to make sure that everything within its borders

was kept at a statistical balance.

Resources, food, population.

An influx of people, a potential for conflict.

Any of that would have jeopardized what they've built.

Someway, somehow, Beale must've thought

that Omaha and the Campus Colony was a threat to that balance.

The Hidden City -- where is it?

If you're being so open and honest, tell us.

This is bullshit.

I came to you for answers, not the other way around.

I need more time.

You want answers?

You stay with me.

You know where to find me.

Having Indira turn you in? That was smart.

But whatever great escape you think you figured out,

you haven't.

Trust me.

Alright, we need to get that note to Will and Elton.

Our window's closing soon.

I'll write it.Best to keep it short.

Say we're delayed, we're safe. That's it.

Got it.

Jadis: Jennifer!

Staff Sergeant.

Warrant Officer Stokes.

Whatcha doing here?

Lt. Colonel Kublek brought me in

to perform a security audit during her absence.

And I think we've been through too much

for you not to call me by my first name.

Heard about you moving up, Jadis.

So, you're good just being a cop, huh?

Military cop.

I'm taking great satisfaction in investigating corruption

and ineptitude, betrayal.

You seen any?

You know, you had potential as an actual soldier.

I know.

And that hurts, coming from the woman who trained me,

taught me what's worth fighting for.

Hope we get to catch up a little while I'm here.

And I hope I don't have to arrest you.

You told me that last time you saw me.

But I'm serious this time.

Back the hell off, bitch.

Heard about you coming in from the cold.

I'm glad you're okay.

Knew you would be, though.

Know about Plaskett and Carlucci and the Bennett sisters

and the boy with the corduroy.

Know about all of it.

I see the whole picture.

That's my job.

So, what do you see?

I see my mentor.

The most dedicated soldier in the Civic Republic Military.

A woman who would slash her face

and break her limbs for the cause.

Your mother's loaned me her office.

Come by later.

I have some rum made from Brazilian cane.

New distillery in Ward 8.

Might even let you call me "bitch" one more time

without putting you on the floor.

I'm so glad to see you again.

Yeah, me too.

Got weak links to find.

See you later.

So, did you actually write what Felix told you to, or...

More or less. Why?

Judging by how long it took you to finish it,

I'm guessing more.

Not a narc. Just observing.

What's a narc?

Seriously? Yeah.

So, you're good with the change of plans?

I made a promise to you.

And then I made one to myself.

Still planning on keeping both.

Even if it's the last thing you do?

If it is, then it is.

I'm hoping it's not.

Now, the one we're looking for

has got a hole in the back bumper.

Shouldn't be hard to spot.

I'll take it from here.

You're really not gonna ask me what it says?

I trust you.

I'm sure it says what it needs to.

Hey.

Hey.

I just heard the news about Iris and Felix.

How are they? They're okay?

They -- They just came in. I was about to tell you.

Oh, no, no, no. Please.

Y-You must be so relieved.

Oh, uh, I picked out

some clothes for them from the stockpile.

It's, uh... becoming my thing.
