Previously on The Walking Dead: World Beyond.
We know where the gas is.
So we destroy the gas?
This is an escape?
Dr. Belshaw wasn't killed in a laboratory accident.
They murdered her.
Come with me. There's no other way.
Our plan doesn't work without you.
-What's going on? -Sergeant Mills' team
is on its way to deal with the Perimeters.
-Fire teams are moving into position. -̨And our mutinous scientists?
Shoot to kill. Eliminate some to traumatize the many.
It's them. Negate on my go.
Three, two, ho.
Ho.
They're sending us a signal,
so we're gonna send one back.
They brought us to this.
No going back now.
Team Delta, report.
Pierce, tell me what is going on down there, now.
Explosions in tunnels one through five.
I lost contact. We walked into a trap.
Where did they get explosives?
They're scientists, Jadis.
This is Leo Bennett.
I want to speak with Warrant Officer Stokes.
Dr. Bennett.
Those soldiers may mean nothing to you,
but they've dedicated their lives to fighting for a future.
A future you're putting at great risk
for every living person on this planet.
That was just for show. We're prepared to escalate.
You should know you've crossed a very serious line.
You destroyed our home,
and an entire surviving city of living persons,
and you tried to hide that from us.
We're done with the CRM.
We're leaving. All of us.
Today.
You think you're in a position to bargain with me.
I do.
We have Mason Beale.
You're lying.
He left on an evacuation transport with the other students.
Mason.
Please.
Officer Stokes, it's me.
Please get me out of here.
What do you want, Dr. Bennett?
Two transport trucks, biggest ones you got.
Full tanks of gas.
No tricks.
And where do you plan on going?
You abandoning your role in someday finding a cure, Doctor?
Saving our entire species?
You're really willing to throw that away?
You're murderers and liars.
We can't take that deal.
Let us go. We'll find another way to save everyone eventually.
Even you people.
Everyone with you feel the same way?
Are you all so quick to abandon the safety and security we've given you?
You won't find that again outside our walls.
There is no progress out there.
Only death, and the dead.
Ask Hope.
She'll tell you.
She's seen it.
You have 30 minutes to get the trucks backed up
to the service entrance near Guard Gate One.
We don't want to have to hurt the boy,
but like I said,
we're prepared to escalate.
You'll get your trucks.
And may I be the first to congratulate you
on roping a lot of smart people into a breathlessly stupid
suicide mission.
Jesus, Jadis.
The hell are we gonna do?
The entire point of your mission
was to ensure that Hope Bennett
understood the importance of a future.
She does.
It sounds like they all do.
Just not one that involves us wiping out their home.
You blame 'em?
It's not my fault the CRM couldn't keep a lid on that.
What's taking the kid so long?
He's coming.
What?
You were just trying to help me.
You don't deserve this.
Sometimes, helping hurts like hell.
Besides, it wasn't j-just about you.
I can get her on the walkie.
-You have something you want to say? -No.
I can't risk blowing her cover or the plan.
But…
Thank you.
Hey.
I'm sorry for what she did to you.
She thought she was helping the world.
-Sometimes helping hurts like hell. -Hey.
Sorry. I, uh…
I found the vodka, but not the antibiotics.
You're out.
Forceps are in the kit. Use the fire to sterilize them.
You're gonna have to hold me down
while the kid digs out the bullet, just like we said, Plaskett.
-What if something happens? -It won't.
It won't.
So long as you hold me down tight.
If I move an inch, the kid nicks my intestines, it's over, so yeah.
I guess there's that. Okay.
Come on.
Tight.
Okay.
Make sure you get a good grip before you pull it out.
Yeah.
-Do you understand? -Yeah.
You good?
Yes, okay.
Okay, kid. Go.
Go.
Nice and easy.
I think I got it.
Nice work, kid.
Kill zone should be at capacity.
Stick to the plan.
Find your friends.
Go.
I'll be fine.
No tricks, see?
Wouldn't wanna risk pulling something while you've got Beale's kid.
If it were up to me, I'd put a bullet in your head right now
for killing my men in those tunnels.
I want these trucks backed up to the service entrance.
Keys in the ignition.
If I see you again…
I'll kill you.
What the hell goes on in here, anyway?
How about you ask your old man?
Real stand-up guy, that Major General.
Iris?
-Trucks are ready. -The others and I are heading out.
We should keep radio communications to a minimum.
-Let me know when you've made it out. -We will. You got this.
As long as they think it's all of us leaving,
that we've got him, they shouldn't try anything.
Be safe.
I'm supposed to be saying that to the two of you.
Well, if this works,
we'll be right behind you.
No goodbyes.
Right?
Yeah.
Take care of them.
Always.
You take care of them.
All eyes are gonna be on you for this part.
That's the plan.
-Ready? -Yeah.
You watch him.
Alright, we'll be back in ten.
Hey, Hope?
There's nowhere you can go that's better.
-Who said you could talk? -What if you never find this again?
What if this is our last chance at a future and you blow it?
Ignore him. He doesn't know shit about what they've done.
Yeah. Maybe it's time we tell him.
Hope.
Come on, let's go.
Should be about a mile out now.
We're clear to peel off and meet the others.
You still have Will's map of the research place?
Yeah. Why?
We're making a stop first.
Maybe you should have gone with them.
Hm?
-Felix and Hope, I mean. -Oh.
She'll be fine.
Yeah? How about you?
How are you doing?
I'm okay.
Just…
thinking about what comes next.
Do you ever think about that?
Well, a lot's happened pretty fast.
And now it's ending pretty fast.
For as long as I can remember, it was just me and my uncle.
You know, finding our way, and making our own luck.
Trying to, uh…
Trying to make a shitty world a little less shitty.
But…
Could be nice, if it was the two of us doing that.
Once this is all over.
Oh yeah?
Where would you want to go?
Ooh…
I… I've, I've always wanted to go to the Getty Museum.
-You know, see what's left of it. -Hm.
You know, granted, it's not the Louvre.
-Nuh-uh. No. -No.
But it's got a good collection.
Ocean views.
Big lawns.
Yeah.
We could grow our own crops.
This is it.
We get in, set the charges, and we get out.
And hope the others meet us with the gas masks.
It's pretty warm in here for cold storage.
Yeah.
Think the outage knocked it out?
No, it's a different grid.
They all thawed out.
Stay behind me.
Shut the freezer door!
Hope, hang tight.
Their heads are still frozen.
You should be proud, Hope.
This place…
It's safe.
It's good for everybody.
This is your home now.
Hope!
Hope.
You okay?
Yeah. Let's plant the charges and get out of here.
Fuck this place.
She moved it.
-All of it. -How?
I don't know.
-But they cut the power, the empties… -They knew we were coming.
Yeah, we gotta go.
Wait. You think they're still here?
We saw 'em leave.
No, we saw two trucks leave.
That's what they wanted us to see.
The Bennetts' motives are based on a sense of justice.
We've already seen how far they'll go.
If they found the vial, they found the gas.
They wouldn't leave without trying to destroy it.
But they won't.
They won't get out of here alive.
Officer Stokes.
Western checkpoint just called in a Code 6.
A thousand incoming from south southwest.
We're minutes away from a full breach.
-It would've been spotted before-- -I know.
Western patrols were redirected to the tunnels.
Divert them with disruption charges,
and send all other available teams to the western gates.
If we don't hold the line, we could lose everything.
The gas has to be here somewhere. We just need to find it.
No, there's no time. They know we're still here.
So we use the charges to do some damage as we leave.
No. Silas is already leading a cluster here to do that for us.
She's right. We stick to the exit plan.
-What do we do with him? -That doesn't change.
We drop him off someplace a ways out, and radio the CRM to pick him up.
And Portland? We're just giving up on a whole city?
We can't save anyone until we save ourselves.
Once we're out, we radio the others about the change of plans.
We'll figure it out from there.
-Where is it? -What? What are you talking about?
-Iris, how would he know? -Your dad's the head of this place.
He wouldn't do what you're accusing him of without a reason.
-He's saner than any of you assholes. -You know this place, the protocols--
I don't know shit about any gas.
-What do you want me to say? -Iris, stop!
Okay, okay, okay, okay. Alright.
We're gonna figure this out, okay?
We leave, now.
Let's go!
Pierce, what's the status?
Checkpoints three and four have been breached.
What about disruption charges?
Teams are trying to clear a path to the copters.
There's just too many.
This is crazy.
I'm suiting up. I'm gonna help hold the line.
You're staying here with me.
Why?
Ready the jeep.
There's business here left to resolve.
Okay. Medical supply room should be right in front of us.
That means the way in is either this way or that way.
You go that way, I'll go this way.
Yeah.
Hey.
Thanks for doing this. You could have just gone with the others, but…
So much hasn't worked out, but this will.
It'll work out.
Hey.
-Plaskett. -Webb.
What are you doing here?
Hey, I-I'm just getting a--
Don't.
Not another step.
Okay.
Sounds like the big guy came through.
More eyes the CRM has on them, the less they'll have on us.
You guys, we gotta get out of here, or their problem's gonna be ours.
Seems clear.
Which Hummer is it?
Four-door, furthest back.
Used my uncle's ring-around-the-rosie routine to lift them off the crew.
Webb.
What's going on?
They pulled all the soldiers to the gates.
Needed manpower quick, so they brought in some cadets.
You're one of them, aren't you?
-The insurgents we're looking for. -What? No.
-No, I-I'm here to-- -Yeah, you are.
Those friends you were trying to find?
You're them.
Damn it, I got orders to shoot on sight.
No, it's okay.
I'm here for Dennis. He's hurt really bad.
I-I'm just getting antibiotics,
that's it, then I'm going back to the outpost.
You're lying.
I can't let you leave here alive.
You don't let me go, Dennis is gonna die.
Then he'll die.
I'm sorry, man. I got orders--
Who was that guy?
It doesn't matter. He'll be out for a while.
I, uh, found the way in.
Yeah. It wasn't marked very well.
The signage in this place leaves, uh, something to be desired.
What? I told you it'll work out.
Come on.
Found 'em.
Good. Come on, let's go.
You're dead, Plaskett.
Open the door!
We're not making it back to the jeep.
I think I know a way out.
Hold fire.
Officer Carlucci has a gun on Mason Beale.
Team Alpha, stand fast.
We have the Bennetts where we want them.
Let's chat, just us.
Switch to 2800.
Privacy code.
You want out of here,
and we want Mason Beale.
How shall we do this?
We turn him over to you unharmed once we're out.
And that only happens when you let us drive off in this Hummer.
Unacceptable.
You haven't shown me anything to make me trust you.
We don't trust you.
So there's you…
And there's us…
And a giant column of the dead coming.
Let's see who blinks first.
You didn't want to listen.
Now here we are, in a no-win situation.
If you try anything at all,
I swear to God, I will kill him.
And then what?
You're out of luck.
And so will you be,
because without Mason, there's nothing to stop us
from gunning all of you down.
And how would Beale feel if his son came back without kneecaps?
I get it.
You're angry.
You blame the CRM for all your troubles, but this?
This is the outcome of your actions, not ours.
Are you pleased with your results?
You did this. You didn't give us a choice.
We didn't want any of this.
You clearly don't understand.
The CRM wasn't our ally. Not ours, not Portland's.
You lied. You covered up a genocide!
This is the only world you've ever known.
You're far too young to appreciate all that has been lost.
You murdered 100,000 people!
They were gonna die anyway.
The military made the hard choices so the civilians wouldn't have to.
Two years ago,
the CRM's modeling revealed that the Alliance would soon become
a drain on the Civic Republic's resources.
Omaha, the Campus Colony, Portland…
had become too reliant.
They'd never be fully self-sustaining.
So it was only a matter of time
before thousands faced a famine of devastating proportions.
At best, those thousands would have died slowly.
At worst,
disease and conflict would have spread to the Civic Republic itself.
And then?
The light of the world…
Extinguished, forever.
Death wins.
We made the choice to spare them that by ending it quickly for them,
so that there could be a chance for humanity to survive.
What we did to your home was mercy.
We made sure all assets were extracted,
including 10,000 children,
and the greatest minds were sent here,
to contribute to scientific progress
under our protection.
People like Dr. Bennett, and of course, you, Hope.
Those who died became an essential part
of our study to end reanimation.
Their legacy will be stopping the dead from walking this world.
What gives you the right to choose who lives and who dies?
You look at the world from your limited perspectives,
and you criticize the CRM
when it is our work that made your very existence possible.
You rant about injustice and unfairness
while you compromise and possibly destroy
the hard-earned advances of so many that came before you.
The CRM makes the hard choices so you don't have to.
Well, take a look around at your great plan at work.
All you're doing is stopping the march towards scientific progress,
denying the world the path to its rightful future.
And why?
Because you're mad at us.
It could be cute,
if it wasn't so pathetic.
And so dangerous.
One! One-shot kill.
-Get down! -I got him.
Percy!
Drop it.
Wrong choice, Jennifer.
No.
You.
-You did this. -No.
No, no. This, this was you. This was…
You did this, you and your goddamn family.
You killed him.
All you had to do was come with us, and everybody would have been okay.
It's what he deserved.
It's what she deserved. Look at what you've done!
My sister was right.
You're them.
You're the same. You don't give a shit. You never did.
-You killed him-- -Hope?
Don't.
I should have seen it.
What they are, and I didn't!
And he's dead, and I should have seen it!
You do this to him…
You'd be doing something to yourself.
All over again.
Don't.
Get in!
Iris.
Go!
Come on!
Move.
I said move!
Guess your mother was right about you.
My mother's got nothing to do with this.
If you were gonna shoot me, you'd have done it by now.
Reinforcements are on the way.
If you spare my life, I'll give you a five-, ten-minute head start.
You've got skills.
You might even stand a chance. What do you say? Yes?
Help! Somebody help.
Please, somebody.
Help!
Major General,
I appreciate the additional troops to secure the facility, but if I may…
It's critical we move up the timeline on Portland.
Nothing can be allowed to prevent that.
The scientists are a priority, but--
Yes, sir. We are compromised.
The Bennetts know about Portland, they've told the others.
They've been receiving information from a sympathizer
I have every intention of bringing to justice.
The scientists will be retrieved, and their research will resume.
I will make sure of it.
I wish that I had been brought in sooner to prevent this,
but I will fix it.
Yes. Yes, sir. Of course.
Thank you for placing your trust in me.
I will not let you down.
You sure this is it?
Yep. With the gas out of play,
I had Will and Indira head to the underground mall, but…
So why isn't Dad answering?
He should have been here with everybody else.
I'll try him again.
Felix to Leo, you copy?
Leo, come in.
Felix to Leo. You copy?
Leo…
Felix. Go ahead.
You alright?
Yeah. Tire blew.
Spikes in the road.
Loaded as many as we could onto the second truck and sent it ahead.
Where are you?
Two miles due west of the rendezvous.
Lost some time detouring around a cluster.
I think we can patch the tire,
but whoever left the spikes can't be far behind.
Alright. Sit tight, I'm on my way.
Copy that.
Look, the Hummer's too easy to spot from the air.
I'll go on foot.
Y'all good to wait up ahead for the others?
Yeah. Yeah, we're good.
Yeah?
Hey.
Dennis?
Hey.
What happened?
I got a little too friendly with a bullet.
What happened to you?
Hope?
We got the meds for Dennis,
but we need to stop by the outpost before we meet with Indira.
Wait. Where is everybody?
Where's Percy?
No.
My dad's in trouble.
Felix went to go try and help him,
but even if they make it, if we make it,
the gas is probably already on its way to Portland.
The CRM won.
They're gonna destroy another city, and we can't do shit about it.
Come in. Anyone? You read me?
Huck?
Yeah.
Hey, um… I think I found something.
You still got that C-4?
Yeah, we have it.
Why?
Hey, what did you find?
Where are you? ou find?
