Fear the Walking Dead (2015–…): Season 4, Episode 9 - People Like Us - full transcript

Morgan tries to help Alicia and this fractured group of survivors as a storm brews.

- Get a 10-13...
- Don't mess with it.

Al, do you copy?

Hey, Al, you copy?

Al, do you copy?

Hey. How's the leg, Morgan?

It's good. I'm doing all right.

What's going on? Is John okay?

John's fine.

Hey, you remember
when you first interviewed me?

I think you mean
the only time I interviewed you.

Yeah.



You were asking questions
about where I came from.

Yeah. The settlements.
The king, and his pet tiger.

You finally ready to tell me
what I want to know?

Well, no, no, no.
I'm not gonna tell you anything.

But I will show you.

I'm headed home, Al.

Going back, and I want you to drive me.

Hey, June.

Morgan.

Is John here?

Virginia?

Well...

That's a long way from here.

I never should have left.



My friend, I think he was right.

It's where I belong.
It's where I should be.

Well, if that's what you think,
then that's where you should go.

You could come. I mean, you all could.

Alexandria is a good place
with good people.

We'd be lucky to have you.

I'm not sure
I'll make it in my current state.

Morgan, I don't know if you will, either.

My leg's fine. I made it before.
And with AI's help, I...

You don't know what's out there.
No one does.

I mean, I was thinkin' maybe,
June, Charlie, and me,

go back to my cabin when I'm able.
And that's if I make the place safer.

Even that idea
seems a little chuckleheaded

'cause my cabin's far.

But it ain't Virginia far.

My mind's made up.

Oh.

Well, when you gonna go?

- Tomorrow.
- Tomorrow.

Well, will you stay for dinner?

It's fish, but I'm sure we've got
artichoke in a jar, or something.

I can't. Got a few more stops I got
to make, before we leave in the morning.

- Well, come by and say so long.
- I will.

Maybe you'll have changed your mind.

You know,
we got through a lot together, huh?

Yes, sir.

I mean,
things harder than making it to Virginia.

I appreciate this offer. I do, but...

I think I got
everything I need right here.

Thank you.

Apologies!

We have a breach in the fence.
And it appears my aim is off.

Door's unlocked.

What do you think?

I've been rotating the collection.

It's a '61 Latour.
Much better than a '66.

The wine cellar is quite extensive.

Where is everybody?

Luciana?

I was hoping we could talk.

I'm, erm...

See, I'm heading back to Virginia.
Al is taking me.

But we got room for everybody.

A road trip?
I've had my fair share of those.

I never want to
set foot in that van again.

What makes you think that we'd embark
on such a foolhardy journey?

You know the kind of people we'd run into.

People like us.

I can't go out there.

I've retired from scraping by
just to survive.

Look around.

I've found the best
this crumbling piece of rock has to offer.

There's nothing for me where you're going.

There's nothing for me anywhere.

Enjoy your trip.

Travel safe.

And Alicia?

Where is she?

She moved out of the main house.

Well, I don't think she ever moved in.

I think I saw her
down by the garden last week.

Alicia?

You here?

Come on.

Alicia, we need to talk.

Can't. Not now.

You've been through a lot.

I know it doesn't seem like
it's ever gonna get any better,

but I think I can help you.

I don't need your help.

Hey, Alicia. What are these?

Oh, I didn't write those.

But someone did,
and they're tacking them onto the dead.

And that's why you're drawing them out?

Well, one of them's got to have something.

What you're doing here, it isn't safe.

Someone needs help.

There's no way of telling
when these were written,

or if whoever wrote them
is even still alive.

But there's other ways, you know,
to do what it is you're trying to do.

Strand, Luciana, they said
they haven't seen you for weeks.

Yeah, well, they won't help me with this.

That's not what I mean.

I'm heading back East in the morning,

heading back where I came from,
and I think you should come along.

I think it'd be good for you, and I think
you could do a lot of good there.

Someone needs help here, now.

You don't know that.

You may end up getting yourself hurt.

I'm leaving in the morning.

You know where to find me
if you change your mind.

Couple more weeks,
you'll be able to fish again.

It's been so long,
you might have to teach me.

- Do you mean it?
- Yeah.

You've caught more widemouth bass this
past month than I have my entire life.

No, John. Not that.

What you said to Morgan,
about wanting to go back to the cabin.

Oh, you heard that?

Yeah, I said that, and I meant it.

Do you think the cabin's even still there?

Well, I locked the door before I left.
Do you not want to go?

No, I didn't say that.

It's just an idea I'm batting around.

Given my condition
and the condition of everything...

- John, it's okay.
- It's totally understandable.

I just...

Charlie!

I got this, kid.

These grapes were not meant for wrath.

I think it's time we found that breach.

Glad I came by to check on you guys
before heading out. She gonna be okay?

Yeah, she'll be all right.

Charlie...

I want you to think about telling me
what just happened down there.

Just think about it.

She didn't even call for help.

She doesn't say much these days.

Thanks for your help. Appreciate it.

How long have the dead been washing up?

We've only seen it once before.

Usually means
there's something amiss upriver.

We gotta go see what's going on.
We'll start with that river up east...

John, you're not up for it.

Well, you can't go alone.
I'm coming with you.

I'll go.

You said you're leaving.

Yeah, not till the morning.

That bridge is a ways away.
If something goes wrong...

You'll be the first to know.

Here. I got another one in the truck.

Keep it close.
Anything goes wrong, we'll call.

You be careful.

Same goes for you.

I just tuned up the guns. We'll be fine.

Okay.

I know where they are.

I was only looking at the note.
Not how they got onto the dead.

It's AGL, a lumber mill
about 10 miles up the road.

We passed it on the way in,
but it's overrun.

The place will be full of walkers.

So, whoever's writing these
needs more help than I thought.

Okay.

- I'll go check it out myself.
- No, I'm going with you.

- You don't have to.
- I'm going.

We're gonna have to backtrack.

We can cut over to the river,
further north.

No, I can clear this pretty easily
with the cable.

Hold on.

You ever seen one of these before?

No.

I'm gonna grab my camera.

We need to keep moving.
We have to get back to John and Charlie.

They'll be fine.

I want to grab tape on this real quick.
Might be a story here.

- What did he say about me?
- Who?

John. I know you interviewed him before.

That's not really how this works.

He told me a lot about Laura.

The others told me about Naomi.

June.

It's June.

Yeah. No one said anything about a June.

You want to tell me about her?

You don't have to.

I really just came here to help.

I mean, I got my motives,

but maybe it would help.

Think about it.

So, what happens after?

You know, say you're right,
and we help this person.

What then?

Well, it won't matter to you.
You'll be on your way.

Hey, I left in a rush, you know?

I didn't even say goodbye to people.

So, they don't know where I went,
or what happened to me.

You just ran?

Thought it was the only thing,
leaving them.

I thought it's what I had to do.

They might not be there any more, right?

No, they're there. See, they're strong.

Like you.

That friend I told you I got back there.

The one who said
I would find my way back to the world,

back to people?

See, I left straight after I heard that.

To get away, you know,
to make it, so that he was wrong.

I just want to look him in the eye
and tell him he was right.

I think he deserves to know.

'Cause he was.

Hey.

I'm just telling you

because I don't want you to find out
one of the harder ways.

Come on.

That should keep the wolves
out of the hen house.

Shall we adjourn to the cellar?

What are we doing here?

Enjoying the bounty of our discovery.

Victor,

I don't know what's left,

where to be, what to fight for.

I see we've been asking ourselves
the same questions.

I'm at least gonna enjoy myself
while I ask them.

Let's go.

Wait. Whoever's asking for help,
they got a reason for asking.

So, let's figure out why
before we go rushing in there.

There's no time.

You coming?

Charlie, you don't have to talk.
You don't have to say anything.

But I do want to ask you a favour.

Will you play a game with me?

Okay?

I even made some extra Zs, in case
you had a hankering for pizza, word wise.

Okay.

You want to go first?

You know, there was a time
I didn't talk much, either.

I had done something

I wasn't too proud of,

a sort of thing
that just won't let you be.

And you're thinking on it,
and you're thinking on it. It starts to...

Starts to eat away at you,

till you start thinking,
maybe there'll be nothing left.

Nothing worth keeping, anyway.

But then, something happened.

I found somebody to talk to.

Well, she found me.

But the point is, telling her,

it brought me back to the world.

Allowed me to forgive myself.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry if I overstepped.
I just thought it was worth saying.

You can play a word
whenever you want, you know?

You wait here. I'll be right back.

Nice to see you ambulatory again.

Yeah. I got a good nurse.

You caught me doing
a little light housekeeping.

So, what do I owe the pleasure?

I need your help. Charlie took off.

She's out there on her own somewhere.

Given my physical limitations,

I'm worried if I look for her by myself,
she gonna remain that way.

You do realize who you're coming to.

Yeah. June and Al are miles away.
Morgan, I'm not sure where he is...

What makes you think I would help?
She shot my friend.

Well, I took a bullet in the gut

on account of the people at this address,
yourself included.

Way I see it, you owe me.

I'll advise leaving Luciana out of it.

You'll have to drive.
I've been drinking rather heavily today.

- Great.
- Okay.

There. That's where they're coming from.

There. They've got him
trapped in that room.

Wait, no.

- I'm doing this.
- I know. So, let me help you.

No! You...

Alicia.

You're supposed to be alive.
You were... You were...

He's been like that for days.

You couldn't have saved him.

If my mom would've found him,
she would've...

She would've saved him.

I was out there a long time,

with Strand, Luciana, and Nick,

looking for those people. That's why...

That's what we did,
doing whatever we had to do.

I was good at that. I...

I was good at that.

You mean like your mom used to be?
Before the stadium?

She changed, though. So, you can change.

I got a lot to make up for.

I do, too.

Why are you sleeping in the greenhouse?

Yeah, looking to save this person,
that gave you a reason, didn't it?

A reason to run away.

But Strand and Luciana, they...

They need you.

You can help them, save them,
like your mom did.

You can just be there for them.

I could,
but you could be there for us, too, right?

Then why are you leaving?

We should check upriver.
Got to be coming from somewhere.

Can you turn that off for a minute?

I do want to talk. I just...

Don't want him to hear
what I'm gonna say.

Sure. If that's what it takes.

John fell in love with Laura at the cabin.

I am not Laura.

I'm the woman who got scared and ran away.

And not just from John.
From everyone else.

It's who I am.

John wants to go back to the cabin.

And if we do, I'm afraid
he's gonna realize that I'm not Laura.

Never was.

And when he realizes that...

Look, I don't...

I don't really give advice.

- Not really what I do.
- Okay.

But since we're just talking,
you know, off the record,

you're with John, every day, helping him,
nursing him back to health.

That's who you are, now.

Yesterday's yesterday. But today's today.

And God knows if there'll be a tomorrow.

I sound like my mom.

It's kind of why I don't do this.

The dead washing up,

it's not from a bridge that's out.

We have to get back. Now.

No sign of her.

Well, she has books from all over,

a few from a middle school
in the next town. Let's go.

You need to know I used to be a cop.

I used to be a millionaire.

Everybody used to be something.

Well, is this your plan now? Just...

You got a better one?

Yeah, I do.

Soon as I'm all healed,
and this is all sorted,

June, Charlie, they'll be coming
to my cabin with me.

And then? What happens after that?

I'm still sorting that part out.

Aren't we all?

Hey, Alicia!

We're done here, Morgan.
Thanks for your help.

No, we need to find some place to hole up.

I'll be fine on my own.

- Hey!
- I said I'll be fine!

Strand?

Hey!

Charlie!

What do you want? What do you want?

Haven't you done enough?

Charlie!

John, are you there? John?

Yeah, where are you? Are you okay?

There's a storm. It's coming your way.

Yeah, yeah, it's here.
Where are you? Are you okay?

June?

June? June?

John? John, do you copy?

John, do you hear me?

What are you doing? We need to get back.

- Not in this.
- No, but John.

When I welded a half-ton of artillery
to the roof, I made a few trade-offs.

Driving in 100-mile-an-hour wind
was one of them.

What the hell was that?

Oh, Jesus!

What?
