Beth and Daryl head into the woods to escape from the prison. After evading a group of walkers, they decide to find the others. However, they only find walkers feasting on the dead at the railroad tracks. Earlier, Tyreese, Lizzie and Mika try to keep a crying Judith quiet. When Tyreese hears a cry for help, he instructs the girls to stay where they are while he goes to help. Waiting for Tyreese, Judith continues to cry. Lizzie tries to keep Judith from crying by smothering her. Judith's crying attracts walkers and Mika shoots one of them. Carol appears after trailing them for some time. She helps kill the walkers and leads them to Tyreese, who had failed to save the people crying for help. One of the men, before dying, tells Tyreese that there is a sanctuary up ahead if they follow the railroad tracks.

- "[To her Journal] Hey, I know it's been awhile, but I'm going to be honest. I forgot about you. After the farm, we were always moving. But something happened, something good...finally. We found a prison. Daddy thinks that we can make it into a home. He says we can grow crops in the field, find pigs and chickens, stop running, stop scavenging. Lori's baby is just about due. She'll need a safe place when it comes. The rest of us...we just need a safe place to be. I woke in my own bed yesterday. My own bed...in my own room. I've been keeping my backpack. Keeping my gun close. I've been afraid to get my hopes up. I mean, can we actually stay here? The thing is I've been starting to get afraid that it is easier to just afraid. but this morning, daddy said something: "If you don't have hope, what's the point of living?" So, I unpacked my bag and I found you. So, I'm going to start writing in you again. And I'm going to write this down now because we should write our wishes to make them come true. We can live here...we can live here for the rest of our lives."
