The Walking Dead (2010–…): Season 6, Episode 11 - Knots Untie - full transcript

Abraham: So there we were,

scraping our sacks
in the sandbox.

Open targets in the dunes.

All of us sweating and swearing.

Sure as hell beat sitting on
our asses 30 clicks to nowhere

waiting for
our humpbacked friend

to defecate the keys
to our transport.

Sasha: Camels don't eat keys.

They do, it did.

And it shit it out. (chuckles)

I shit you not.



You're an idiot.

I've never denied it.

(giggles)

Brave new world.

I still can't stop thinking
about Maggie having a pup.

In this.

What about it?

You know, the way things go.

The way they can.

Yeah.

Maybe that's why.

Because the way things go.

Uh...

You already called me an idiot.



Never had to.

(chuckles) Yeah.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Nope.

I'm, uh,

starting a new shift.

The watch post on Baggarly.

That so?

Yeah, I already
talked to Eugene.

He wants to help out more.

Said he'd take over
my patrol with you.

Uh...

how about that?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

How about that?

Um...

see you around?

Yeah.

Yeah.

See you around, Abraham.

(sighs)

Hey.

Hey, Abraham.

Hey.

You're still here?

You know Eugene's
gonna start patrolling?

Mm-hmm.

He asked me to teach him how
to fieldstrip automatics.

He's gonna teach me chemistry.

Mm.

You can't teach chemistry.

- (laughs) Really?
- Mm-mm.

(moans)

Sweet flaming mercy.

That was just... beyond.

Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah?

Mm.

Catch.

It's from the fuel truck.

Had to crack a brake light.

You made this?

Thought your neck
looked a little lonely.

Rosita Espinosa,

you are damn near
perfection, you know that?

(chuckles)

Show me.

In the shower.

In a minute.

(water running)

Glenn: Maggie.

Hey.

We get the trellises in, we
can start going vertically.

Double our yield of
tomatoes per square foot.

We can only keep stretching
our rations so far.

Still haven't seen a single bud.

Babe.

It'll grow.

We're gonna be okay.

(gate opens)

(sighs)

What the hell are you
doing in our house?

I'm, uh, sitting on the steps

looking at this painting,

waiting for your mom
and dad to get dressed.

Hi...

- I'm Jesus.
- (door opens)

(footsteps approach)

Carl, hey, um...

- (door closes)
- (hammers click)

It's... it's okay.

Rick: You said we should talk.

So let's talk.

So, how'd you get out?

One guard can't cover two exits

or third floor windows.

Knots untie
and locks get picked.

- Entropy comes from order, right?
- Right.

I checked out your arsenal.

I haven't seen anything
like that in a long time.

You're well-equipped, but
your provisions are low.

Very low for the amount
of people you have.

- 54?
- More than that.

Well, I appreciate the cookie.

My compliments to the chef.

Yeah, she ain't here.

Look, we got off to a bad start.

But we're on the same side...
the living side.

You and Rick had every reason
to leave me out there,

but you didn't.

I'm from a place
that's a lot like this one.

Part of my job is searching out
other settlements to trade with.

I took your truck because
my community needs things,

and both of you
looked like trouble.

I was wrong.

You're good people.

And this is a good place.

I think our communities may be in
a position to help each other.

Do you have food?

We've started
to raise livestock.

We scavenge, we grow.

Everything from
tomatoes to sorghum.

Tell us why we should
believe you.

I'll show you.

If we take a car, I can take
you back home in a day,

and you can all see for yourselves who
we are and what we have to offer.

Wait, you're looking
for more settlements.

You mean you're already
trading with other groups?

Your world's about to get
a whole lot bigger.

(theme music playing)

Here.

Homemade oat cake.

Complex carbohydrates, omega-3s.

Nah, I'm good.

We're gonna make a pit stop.
I'll pick up something then.

Like rabies?

Is this 'cause I tried
to get you that stuff?

Yeah.

And you remind me
of someone I used to know.

Well...

I hope it tastes
better than it looks.

'Cause it looks like shit.

Shit's still better
than roadkill.

Okay, maybe... just eat it.

You sure?

No.

But if he's telling the truth,

this could be
the start of everything.

(chatter)

Look, I was gonna tell you
about me and Michonne,

but it just happened.

It just happened.

Last night.

This is... this is different.

It's cool.

All right.

Well, get your stuff.

Gabriel can take care
of Judith while we're gone.

No, I'm not coming.

Someone's gotta stay back,
keep this place safe.

A kid with a messed-up face
probably wouldn't make

the best first
impression anyway.

(babbling)

Let's chew up some asphalt!

Hey.

Can I ask you a question?

Sure.

When you were, uh,
pouring the Bisquick,

were you trying
to make pancakes?

Uh...

yes?

Oh, okay, um...

it's something that
we talked about, yeah.

- Yeah.
- Why?

No, I just...

Well, given the precarious

state of affairs
on any given Sunday,

I am damn near floored
that you or anyone else

would have the cojones
to make a call like that.

I mean, well...

we're trying to build
something, me and her.

All of us.

For the record,

I see rain coming,
I'm wearing galoshes.

I double up.

(brakes squealing)

Yo, Rick. What's going on?

We got a crash ahead.

Looks like it just happened.

It's one of ours.

(walkers snarling)

If this is a trick,
it won't end well for you.

My people are in trouble.

They don't... we don't
have a lot of fighters.

I know how it looks,
but I'll play it out.

Can I borrow a gun?

No.

We got tracks right here.

(bangs on door)

Jesus: They gotta be in there.

We moving in or what?

How do we know this ain't
firecrackers in a trash can?

You don't.

We'll get your people.

You're staying here
with one of us.

That's the deal.

- Glenn: Will you stay?
- Maggie: Yeah.

Y'all go. Just be careful.

Yeah.

We're gonna be careful.

Just hurry.

You hear me whistle, shoot him.

I will.

(walkers snarling)

(snarling continues)

- (grunting)
- (flesh squelching)

Come on out.
We're not gonna hurt you.

We're friends of Jesus.
We're here to get you out.

- There more of you?
- Two more. They ran ahead.

(walkers snarling)

(snarling)

(clatter)

Come on.

We're with Jesus. Let's go.

I can't go with you.
I'm looking for my friend.

He's close, and he's
hurt from the crash.

(walkers snarling)

- (man yelling)
- (walker snarling)

No!

Daryl: Come on, man, let's go.

Come on!

- You got him?
- Go.

Come on. Come on.

(walker growls)

Name's Harlan, by the way.

Maggie.

That's my husband, Glenn.

Harlan: We're bringing
back medication,

so you may have saved more people
than just us back there, Glenn.

- You're a doctor?
- Yeah, that's right.

You have any prenatal
vitamins in there?

- For you?
- Mm-hmm.

Well, uh, I was
an obstetrician before,

and I most definitely owe you.

So, I'd say you two
just hit the jackpot.

You okay, Freddie?

For a second back there,

just when I thought
he was gonna...

I saw my wife.

She died before all this.

(voice breaking)
Just when I thought it was over,

there she was.

(laughs)

Clear as day.

(splats)

(tires spinning)

Damn it.

(revs motor)

A storm must've passed through.

We're stuck.

No worries. We're here.

That's us.

That's the Hilltop.

Man: Stop right there.

- Whoa!
- Daryl: You gonna make us?

Jesus, what the hell is this?

Open the gates, Cal.
Freddie's hurt.

Look, sorry about these guys.

They get antsy standing up there

all day doing nothing.

They give up the weapons.
Then we'll open the gates.

Why don't you come
down here and get 'em?

Gentlemen, look, we vouch for
these people, all right?

They saved us out there.

Jesus: Lower the spears.

Look, I'm not
taking any chances.

Tell your guy Gregory
to come out here.

No.

Don't you see
what just happened?

I'm letting you keep your guns.

Look, we ran out
of ammo months ago.

I like you people.

I trust you.

Trust us.

Open the gates, Cal.

(gates squeaking)

(clucking)

Hey, thanks again.

Come see me whenever. I'm just over
here in the medical trailer, okay?

There was a materials yard
for a power company nearby.

That's how we put up the walls.

A lot of people came
from a FEMA camp.

Trailers came with them.

How did people find
out about this place?

That's called Barrington House.

The family that owned it gave
it to the state in the '30s.

The state turned it into
a living history museum.

Every elementary school for 50 miles
used to come here for field trips.

The place was running a long time before
the modern world built up around it.

I think people came here
because they figured

it'd keep running after
the modern world broke down.

Those windows up there let us see
for miles in every direction.

It's perfect for security.

Come on. I'll show you inside.

Good gracious, Ignatius.

Jesus: Most of the rooms have
been converted to living spaces.

Even the ones
that weren't bedrooms.

People live here
and the trailers?

We plan to build.

There's babies being born.

Jesus.

You're back.

With guests.

Jesus:
Everyone, this is Gregory.

He keeps the trains
running on time around here.

I'm the boss.

Well, I'm Rick.
We have a community...

Why don't y'all
go get cleaned up, hmm?

We're fine.

Jesus will show you where
you can get washed up.

Then come back down here
when you're ready.

It's hard to keep
this place clean.

Yeah. Sure.

Follow me.

You clean up first.
You talk to him.

Why?

I shouldn't.

And you gotta start
doing these things.

How long do you think Rick and
Michonne been ugging bumplies?

I don't know.

You ever think about it?

Settling down?

You think shit's settled?

Gregory.

- Natalie, right?
- Maggie.

That's pretty close.

Not really.

She calls them like she sees them.
I like that.

Come in, let's chat.

Yeah.

I... I came to this
place once before,

when it was a museum,

this, um, Chamber
of Commerce thing.

Love that painting.

I never figured it'd be mine,

here it is.

It's like it was waiting
for me the whole time.

Hmm.

Jesus told me your group saved Dr.
Carson.

Obviously, a doctor's
a rare commodity today,

so I want to thank you
for bringing ours back.

My husband saved him.

I'll be sure to thank him, too.

This place, what you have here,

has been here since the start?

That's right.

And how... how is it...
how have you survived here?

You're looking at how.
I'm good at this.

And I don't get
hung up on the details.

Where you live, is it as
nice as the Hilltop Colony?

It's just different.

How do you feed everyone?

Jesus said you had land
for gardens, but no crops.

We just started planting.

- Planting what?
- Cucumbers, tomatoes.

Oh, crops... soy,
corn, hemp, sorghum.

- Garden stuff.
- But you have guns,

so I assume you have
a decent weapons cache.

It's decent.

And your infirmary,
is it stocked?

Is yours?

We came here hoping
to talk trade.

Do you have enough
here for that?

You see what I have here.

You see what I've built.

Jesus said that your food situation
was challenged right now.

You don't keep people fed,
it comes apart.

Let's speak the common
tongue here, huh?

You don't have shit.

Now, I'm happy to help.
I'm a nice guy.

But we can't just give
things away for free.

How's this?

Since you can't offer much, I'll let
your people work here for their share.

You'd be a welcome addition
to the community,

a smart and beautiful woman.

Getting back
to that common tongue,

I can tell ya, I can make
it worth your while.

- Let me stop you right there.
- Listen, honey.

Stop coming on to me
with calling me honey.

You don't have any ammunition.

Who said that?

You're low on medication.

You need things. We need things.

What, are you gonna give us a bottle
of aspirin and a box of bullets?

Our communities
can help each other.

Thank you, Natalie.
Been a good talk.

We can help each other.

We're doing fine.

Are you?

Jesus: We want to generate trade.
Gregory does.

But ammo isn't something
we urgently need.

- Well, how's that?
- The walls hold.

We just brought in
more medicine.

Gregory wants
the best deal possible.

Yeah, well, we want things, too.

Rick: We need food.

We came all this way,
we're gonna get it.

I will talk to him

and we will work this out.

Circumstances change.

We're doing well now,
and you will next.

I will make him understand that.

Can you give me a few days?

We can.

Yeah.

(soft laugh)

What's wrong?

They're back.

Gregory: Nathan, what
happened to everybody else?

Where's Tim and Marsha?

They're dead.

- Negan?
- Yeah.

- We had a deal.
- Man: He said it wasn't enough.

Was the drop light?

Gregory: No.

They still have Craig.

They said they'd keep him
alive, return him to us,

if I deliver a message to you.

So, tell me.

I'm sorry.

- (groans)
- (flesh squelches)

Get off of me! I had to!

(grunting)

- (ears ringing)
- (heart pounding)

Sasha's voice: Maybe that's why.

Because the way things go.

(screams)

- (yells)
- Glenn: Hey!

Stay back! Anybody
who tries to stop me

is killing my brother!

Michonne: Drop it.

(groaning)

(groaning)

What?

Nathan! You killed him.

He tried to kill
Gregory, then me.

(grunts)

Ah!

Don't.

Drop it now!

I don't think I will.

Everyone, this is over!

(panting)

It's over.

Ethan was our friend,
but let's not pretend

he was anything more than
a coward who attacked us.

He did this.

And these people stopped him.

(crying)

What can I do?

Put the gun away.

You've done enough.

You need to know

that things aren't
as simple as they might seem.

Just give me some time.

(groaning)

- Daryl: Hey, man.
- Huh?

You good?

Yeah.

I'm better than all right.

(laughs)

(Abraham grunts)

(door opens)

Jesus: Dr. Carson was
able to patch Gregory up.

He's in pain, but he'll live.

So, what happens now?

Things like that
don't usually happen here,

but, uh, it's settled.

We heard the name Negan.

A while back, Daryl and Abraham
had a run-in with his men.

Who is he?

Negan's the head of a group of
people he calls the Saviors.

As soon as the walls were
built, the Saviors showed up.

They met with Gregory
on behalf of their boss.

They made a lot of demands,
even more threats.

And he killed one of us... Rory.

He was 16 years old.

They beat him to death
right in front of us.

Said we needed to understand,
right off the bat.

Gregory's not exactly
good at confrontation.

He's not the leader
I would've chosen,

but he helped make
this place what it is,

and the people like him.

He made the deal.

Jesus: Half of everything.

Our supplies, our crops,

our livestock,
it goes to the Saviors.

And what do you get in return?

They don't attack this place.

They don't kill us.

Why not just kill them?

Most of the people here don't
even know how to fight,

even if we had ammo.

Well, how many people
does Negan have?

We don't know.

We've seen groups as big as 20.

Now, hold up. So, they
show up, they kill a kid,

and you give them
half of everything?

These dicks just got
a good story.

The bogeyman, he ain't shit.

Well, how do you know?

A month ago, we took
his guys out PDQ.

Left them in pieces and puddles.

You know, we'll do it.

If we go get your man back,
kill Negan, take out his boys,

will you hook us up?

We want food, medicine,
and one of them cows.

Confrontation's never been
something we've had trouble with.

I'll take it to Gregory.

They have food, we don't.

We don't have
enough of anything.

Except us.

What we can do.

This is the trade.

It's gonna cost us something.

(door opens)

Gregory's up. He wants to talk.

To Maggie.

He wants to talk to Maggie.

You got this.

Deanna was right about you.

I'm sorry in advance.
Gregory can be a real prick.

I know.

(knock on door)

Come in.

Mm.

Sorry for the gloom.

They have me
on these antibiotics

that make me sensitive
to the sunlight.

This is agony.

It's like somebody's twisting my
intestines with a cement mixer.

It could've been worse.

You're lucky we were here.

Jesus told you about our offer?

He did.

What makes you think you can
do what we haven't done?

We've handled people like Negan.

- How?
- They're dead.

We can get your man back.

I don't know if Craig's
worth the trouble.

I mean, it's his
brother who did this.

He was fighting to save
someone he loves.

He was afraid.

That makes him weak.

Frankly, I don't know if I want
him back in our gene pool.

My dad used to tell me forgiveness
takes more strength than anger.

Yeah, I guess.

He's a hell of a cook.

He makes these amazing baked
eggs with green tomatoes.

You give us supplies,
we'll save Craig

and take care of Negan
and the Saviors, permanently.

(Gregory laughs)

I'm sorry, I find this whole
conversation pretty funny.

I mean, you balked
when I proposed

that your people work for
our supplies, but now...

isn't that exactly
what's happening here?

See, I had leverage
and I used it.

See? It wasn't personal.

Yes.

We need food. You have it.

We're willing to work for it.

Then I'll get supplies
for your people.

Good.

I'll talk to Jesus and he'll
make the arrangements.

See, this was fun.

Exciting.

Half.

Excuse me?

Half of what you have.

I saw what happened out there.

Negan's expecting
more supplies from this place.

And more and more.

And if it keeps going like that,

pretty soon you won't
have anything left.

What happens then?

Without ammo,
without fighters...

you'd be a dead man.

So half of everything you have

right now

or the deal's off.

You see?

I have leverage.

(groans)

Congratulations.

You have yourself a deal.

You want anything else?
Kidney, maybe?

Not that...

but I do want something.

Even Negan didn't get
this much up front.

What?

Jesus said you've been taking supplies
to Negan since the beginning.

We're gonna get Craig back.

The only way to get Craig back
is to bring them Gregory's head.

We're gonna get Craig back.

How?

We need to know what you
know about Negan's compound.

We need your help.

We need you to come.

Yeah.

Okay.

You got room
for one more, right?

I mean, we're talking about
righting the world here.

Plus, you still have my knives.

(chuckles)

Hey, you up for this?

It's gonna be a fight.

We'll win.

We have to.

We'll win.

(heart beating)

(sighs)
