Fear the Walking Dead (2015–…): Season 5, Episode 4 - Skidmark - full transcript
Charlie makes a friend, while Strand, Wendell, and Sarah's rescue mission hits a snag; Alicia, Luciana and Morgan struggle to fulfill their mission.
Let's add to the collection.
Ready, Skidmark?
Go!
Thank you for the car.
Three more traps to check.
We're going home, Skidmark.
We're going.
- What if he finds her?
- He won't.
This is what Charlie does.
She was at the stadium for weeks
before we found out
what she was up to.
It's here.
- It was behind the semi.
- OK.
Find someplace he won't.
When he leaves, open the gate.
Copy.
Skidmark!
I'm in his car.
He's about to leave.
Hey, get out of there.
We're coming in.
You know how long I've been waiting
to drop this hammer?
Turn her into Swiss cheese?
- No, stay put.
- Charlie.
- I can handle it.
- Charlie!
Hey, Charlie!
Charlie!
I thought you might be hungry.
It's OK.
You can read it if you want.
I gave it to someone once.
Someone about your age.
It helped both of us
get through some tough times.
John, June, do you copy?
Still out of range,
looking for Sherry.
We can't wait any longer.
We've got to go back to the woods.
This web of the dead, Al's got to be
on the other side of it.
- Yeah.
- She's not there.
In the woods -
that's not where they are.
"They"?
We saw them.
When they first came here.
We saw them
when they set up their camp.
Why didn't you tell us that
when we found you?
You don't have to be
afraid of us, Dylan.
You know that, right?
Yeah?
Hey, could you...
Could you show us...
where you saw that camp?
There.
Thank you.
We're going to find our friend
and we're going to find
the people who did this.
Walkie us if you hear
from the others.
Leave us the tow truck.
I'll fix the CB, contact Strand,
and see where he's at with the plane.
You can't do that on your own.
I'll help.
The sooner you get the plane,
the sooner you can leave, right?
The sooner we can all leave.
You be careful.
Here.
Not my color or my style.
I've always preferred flying a G4.
Will she fly?
She'll fly.
Let's load her up
and bring our friends home, shall we?
OK. Let's have a look at this baby.
Oh, no.
Where's the six pack?
Brewski or abdominal?
You ain't gonna find either here.
The instrument gauges. We need those.
I ALREADY SAID NO! CHANNEL 8
- What's wrong, Vic?
- What's going on, man?
- Where the hell are you, Daniel?
- Relax, Victor.
I'm nowhere near the warehouse.
But if you're still there
when I get back,
I'm gonna make good on my promise.
Think he's gonna shoot us
in our faces, or just Vic?
How did you know?
Because I know you, Victor.
And I was right, you haven't changed.
Look, I know you got
a beef with our friend.
Justifiably so,
considering the... sinus pinball.
But why not just give us the GD plane
and let us be on our way?
Who is this?
Sarah.
Stay away from that man, Sarah.
He has a talent for hurting
anyone who comes near him.
I haven't hurt anyone, Daniel.
You sent a child
to do your dirty work.
Show yourself, in the back.
If you hurt her...
I am not going to hurt her, Victor.
I am going to save her... from you.
You just gonna sit there
like a turd in the toilet,
waiting for him to come back?
That's what he wants.
Maybe I can talk him
into giving you the plane.
It's gonna be hard to talk
with your head blown off.
This ain't helping anybody, Vic.
This is giving up.
Because some jagoff with a bunch
of shit doesn't think you've changed?
Dan the Man's not here right now,
and until he is,
we're gonna keep cranking
to get this bear in the air.
We'll get Charlie.
We'll get everyone.
It won't...
I can't fly the plane
without the instruments.
Vic, they got to be in here
somewhere, man.
Come on, you gonna make me look
all by my lonesome?
- Come on.
- Yeah.
- Let's go.
- All right.
Where are you taking me?
I meant what I said.
I'm not gonna hurt you.
You shouldn't blame Victor.
I knew what I was doing.
I had my reasons.
You're a child.
He knows better.
Did you set up the traps around here?
You've been watching me?
No, I didn't set the traps.
But... you're disarming them.
Why?
You ask too many questions.
Is this the live recording?
You know Son House?
What's your name?
What's it about?
The book, how can it help?
There's a pilot
who crashes his plane in the desert.
He finds a little prince
who has left his home planet...
traveling from place to place.
Why did he leave?
To learn things.
To meet friends.
- What did he learn?
- To look beneath the surface.
To not be afraid of the unexpected.
Dylan, if there is anything
you want to talk about... you can.
I know.
We need electrical tape.
I can get it.
Olly olly oxen free.
Dylan, are you alone?
Yeah, I was careful.
I'm using channel nine,
like you said.
OK. They cut down
some more of our growlers.
Where?
By the old utility road,
near the gas station.
I didn't send them that way.
They're trying to find their friend.
Then who the hell did this?
Max?
Shit.
Stay down.
Max?
Annie?
Everything OK?
I couldn't find the tape.
It's in back.
Let's go.
Wait here.
Come on.
This one's going to be tricky,
Skidmark.
Slip in the back,
away from all the windows.
Throw a can to the other end of
the store, and use something heavy,
like peaches or artichoke hearts.
Nobody ever takes
the artichoke hearts.
Use the shelves in aisle two as cover
and unclip the belt from the gun,
and come out the front.
I used to do the same thing.
Pick over the dead.
Sometimes I would use music
to distract them
so I could steal their things.
Except I didn't kill people to do it.
I know what you're thinking.
But I didn't do this.
I inherited the warehouse
from the person who did.
Who killed them
so their things could sit on a shelf.
Why are they still sitting there?
It's hard to find people these days.
That's not true.
One of them came to your door,
asking for help.
Let's go find some artichoke hearts.
Run!
Skidmark!
I'm gonna leave you behind one day.
- How much ammo do you have?
- About half of what it would take.
And we'd only draw more.
Yeah, but we can outrun them.
The herd will grow.
Eventually they will hurt someone.
We need to stop it.
We'll lead it to the warehouse.
The gates will hold.
Then we'll pick them off, one by one.
Hey.
Nothing.
I think Dylan
might have been confused.
Well, he's been through a lot.
Do you think he's
telling us everything?
Luciana, do you copy?
I'm here, Morgan.
So, we're at the coordinates
that Dylan gave.
There's no camp here.
No sign that there ever was.
We're gonna go into the woods.
John and June come into range,
tell them to meet us there.
No. No, no, no.
That you, Dylan?
- Go to the old utility road.
- Why? What's there?
Just go. Near the gas station.
Listen, we got to find our friend
so that what happened to your brother
and sister won't happen again.
They're not dead.
What?
We lied.
I lied.
We faked the whole thing.
Why would you do that?
Because we were scared.
Dylan...
Please. Max and Annie
are in trouble.
I'm sorry we lied,
but they need help.
Please.
Is it clear?
I think they left.
- It's OK.
- OK.
I think they're gone.
Come on!
No, we got to go! We got to go!
No!
Sarah? Wendell? Do you guys copy?
Charlie, where are you? Are you OK?
I'm fine.
We're fine.
At least, we will be.
Daniel, where are
the damn instruments?
They're here, Victor.
Did you really think I'd leave them
anywhere you could get them?
Daniel, I'm begging you.
Our friends' lives may be in danger.
Bring them back.
That's exactly what we're doing,
but we picked up some friends.
There's a herd behind us.
May not have to shoot you
in your face after all.
Close the gates.
Make sure the curb stops
are in place,
and we'll climb over if we have to.
Hate to crash your conversation
with bad news,
but there's a bit of a hole
in that plan...
about 36 feet wide.
I had to break your fence down
to get this bird out of its cage.
What? Why are you laughing?
Because I said I would help you,
but going back there like this,
putting your life at risk,
I would be doing
the same things as Victor.
Why are you stopping?
You know how to drive?
Kind of.
Take the instruments to Victor,
get the plane and go.
But I don't want
to just leave you here.
Your friends need help.
You can't help them
without the plane.
What about you?
I'll take care of them.
- How?
- The same way you used to.
Go.
He just handed them over?
He said he wanted to help me, but...
if he led walkers here
with the gate down...
...he'd hurt us, like I hurt him.
Got to boogie if we're gonna get
that bear up in the air.
Daniel?
Daniel?
I'm sorry about what happened.
I'm sorry... I tried to kill you.
I'm sorry about
whatever pain you're in.
But if you're putting yourself
in danger to teach me a lesson,
then don't.
You still think this is about what
you did to me at the dam, Victor?
What is it about, then, Daniel?
The same thing
it's always about with you - lies.
What lies?
What does that mean?
Tell them, Victor.
Tell them how you kept me
from Ofelia.
I want to hear you say it.
Daniel... got separated
from his daughter.
I told him that I knew
where she was.
I lied... because I needed
something from him.
And when...
And when he finally got to her...
when he finally found her...
it was too late.
You wasted time I did not have.
And I couldn't tell her
what I wanted her to know.
What was it?
Doesn't matter now.
Guys... we can't just
leave him behind.
We said we were going to help people,
and here is someone we can help.
We can't outrun them!
We've got to find a place to hole up!
Annie, come on!
Hey, hey.
How did you find us?
Your brother told us
you were in trouble.
I knew Dylan would crack.
He's worried about you.
You have no idea what's going on.
So tell us.
We're not gonna hurt you.
And it's just us here now.
It's not just us.
Daniel, I'm sorry about Ofelia.
I'm not asking you to forgive me.
I'm just asking for the chance
to show you that I'm not
that man any more.
- Let us help you.
- I told you to leave, Victor.
We would, but my brother's been
itching to bring down the hammer.
Hammer?
Coming in hot.
Hug the van, Dan.
Time to stir up some beef.
Now!
Come on!
Hit it again!
We got a problem, guys.
He's stuck under us.
Don't give up on me yet, Daniel.
Hey!
Hey!
Come on!
Hey!
Over here!
Come on!
Come on! Right here! Right here!
Oh, shit.
Oh, my God.
Soup's on. Get the ladle.
I'm not gonna shoot you in the face.
Now we just have to test it.
Thank you for helping me.
Dylan? Dylan, pick up.
Annie? Are you all right?
What did you tell them?
They were telling the truth before,
Annie. They want to help.
Are you that stupid, Dylan?
It's the truth.
I think they can help us, too.
He's right.
We can all help each other.
Please...
let's put down our weapons.
Annie.
Thank you.
Dylan said some other people
came here... before us.
People who scared you.
We think they might be
the ones who took Al.
Who are they?
Our offer still stands.
You can come with us.
We just need to know where Al is.
Look, we can help you
find your friend.
But like we said before,
we can't leave.
Why?
People back at the camp.
They were your parents, right?
You've been there.
I'm sorry.
What were you going to tell her?
That every day
brings a chance to start over.
A chance to get it right.
Something tells me
you need to hear that, too.
Wait.
Where are you going?
There's a reason I've been here
on my own for this long.
I need to go and take care of it.
Well... you want company?
Your friends need you here.
But I set the record player up.
Look after Skidmark.
You're welcome to stay
until you help your friends.
Everything here, consider it yours.
Except for this.
A friend asked me to save this
for when things get better.
Hey.
Here goes.
Strand?
Are you there?
Do you copy?
Hey. We're here, Luciana.
Are you OK?
Yes! How is it going with the plane?
We managed to help someone with it,
but in so doing, the engines
were damaged beyond repair.
It won't fly?
I wish I had better news.
But we'll find a way
to bring you home.
The pilot.
In the book, he crashes
his plane in the desert.
How did he get out?
He fixed his plane, put it back
together and flew away.
So why don't you do that?
If he can do it, so can you.
We saw them here a few weeks ago.
They had weapons, uniforms.
- Any idea how many?
- Two, but there could be more.
They have to know
this place isn't safe.
They do know.
I knew.
My wife turned close to the start.
And my son and I...
I couldn't kill her.
Couldn't bring myself
to leave her behind, so...
we stayed...
even after we shouldn't have.
Your son?
I lost him when he couldn't
bring himself to kill her, either.
What were their names?
She was Jenny.
He's Dwayne.
Wait.
Wait.
Get down!
Stay down!
What the hell is that?
Those people, they came in that.
Why are they leaving?
Maybe they got what they came for.
Ready, Skidmark?
Go!
Thank you for the car.
Three more traps to check.
We're going home, Skidmark.
We're going.
- What if he finds her?
- He won't.
This is what Charlie does.
She was at the stadium for weeks
before we found out
what she was up to.
It's here.
- It was behind the semi.
- OK.
Find someplace he won't.
When he leaves, open the gate.
Copy.
Skidmark!
I'm in his car.
He's about to leave.
Hey, get out of there.
We're coming in.
You know how long I've been waiting
to drop this hammer?
Turn her into Swiss cheese?
- No, stay put.
- Charlie.
- I can handle it.
- Charlie!
Hey, Charlie!
Charlie!
I thought you might be hungry.
It's OK.
You can read it if you want.
I gave it to someone once.
Someone about your age.
It helped both of us
get through some tough times.
John, June, do you copy?
Still out of range,
looking for Sherry.
We can't wait any longer.
We've got to go back to the woods.
This web of the dead, Al's got to be
on the other side of it.
- Yeah.
- She's not there.
In the woods -
that's not where they are.
"They"?
We saw them.
When they first came here.
We saw them
when they set up their camp.
Why didn't you tell us that
when we found you?
You don't have to be
afraid of us, Dylan.
You know that, right?
Yeah?
Hey, could you...
Could you show us...
where you saw that camp?
There.
Thank you.
We're going to find our friend
and we're going to find
the people who did this.
Walkie us if you hear
from the others.
Leave us the tow truck.
I'll fix the CB, contact Strand,
and see where he's at with the plane.
You can't do that on your own.
I'll help.
The sooner you get the plane,
the sooner you can leave, right?
The sooner we can all leave.
You be careful.

Oh, no.
Where's the six pack?
Brewski or abdominal?
You ain't gonna find either here.
The instrument gauges. We need those.

Olly olly oxen free.

We would, but my brother's been
itching to bring down the hammer.
Hammer?
Coming in hot.
Hug the van, Dan.
Time to stir up some beef.
Now!
Come on!
Hit it again!
We got a problem, guys.
He's stuck under us.
Don't give up on me yet, Daniel.
Hey!
Hey!
Come on!
Hey!
Over here!
Come on!
Come on! Right here! Right here!
Oh, shit.
Oh, my God.
Soup's on. Get the ladle.
I'm not gonna shoot you in the face.
Now we just have to test it.
Thank you for helping me.
Dylan? Dylan, pick up.

It's the truth.
I think they can help us, too.
He's right.
We can all help each other.
Please...
let's put down our weapons.
Annie.
Thank you.
Dylan said some other people
came here... before us.
People who scared you.
We think they might be
the ones who took Al.
Who are they?
Our offer still stands.
You can come with us.
We just need to know where Al is.
Look, we can help you
find your friend.
But like we said before,
we can't leave.
Why?
People back at the camp.
They were your parents, right?
You've been there.
I'm sorry.
What were you going to tell her?
That every day
brings a chance to start over.
A chance to get it right.
Something tells me
you need to hear that, too.
Wait.
Where are you going?
There's a reason I've been here
on my own for this long.
I need to go and take care of it.
Well... you want company?
Your friends need you here.
But I set the record player up.
Look after Skidmark.
You're welcome to stay
until you help your friends.
Everything here, consider it yours.
Except for this.
A friend asked me to save this
for when things get better.
Hey.
Here goes.
Strand?
Are you there?
Do you copy?
Hey. We're here, Luciana.
Are you OK?
Yes! How is it going with the plane?
We managed to help someone with it,
but in so doing, the engines
were damaged beyond repair.
It won't fly?
I wish I had better news.
But we'll find a way
to bring you home.
The pilot.
In the book, he crashes
his plane in the desert.
How did he get out?
He fixed his plane, put it back
together and flew away.
So why don't you do that?
If he can do it, so can you.
We saw them here a few weeks ago.
They had weapons, uniforms.
- Any idea how many?
- Two, but there could be more.
They have to know
this place isn't safe.
They do know.
I knew.
My wife turned close to the start.
And my son and I...
I couldn't kill her.
Couldn't bring myself
to leave her behind, so...
we stayed...
even after we shouldn't have.
Your son?
I lost him when he couldn't
bring himself to kill her, either.
What were their names?
She was Jenny.
He's Dwayne.
Wait.
Wait.
Get down!
Stay down!
What the hell is that?
Those people, they came in that.
Why are they leaving?
Maybe they got what they came for.
