4-10 Fishing & Smoking (remix)

Pain. Pain is the great equalizer, the secret to life. From the time I was a boy, I learned to always inflict pain faster than my opponent, to never let pain guide my decisions, and always harness. The pain for my own strength. The Great Quake brought misery and death to a careless number of people, but it made me a god ruler of my domain, the greatest bounty hunter. Do you ever live? No one, No one dares run from TJ. Swinson except one. They call her the lone survivor, the savior of the refugees, But she is my greatest bounty ever. This is life on the changing Earth. I'm glad you decided to take Surge. He's always protected me. I wish you could take your too. So do I, mister Lee. But Gerber will have to do. I won't be able to get messages out to you. I know you. Make sure you bring her home. This is it, TJ. I will not fail, sir, and get the. Hell out of here and get the job done. I'll be back as soon as I can. DJ Carl is here until we meet again, Sir. You take care of him. Surge. You'lly wheels sooner. I know. You ready for this TJ. Let's go get the girly. This is Bishop. He'll be going with us all the way. Bishop TG, nice to meet you. What do you do? I'm a medic and. My right arm this is Dallas. She'll take the suv back to base after she drops us off at the ferry. From there we'll be refugees looking for sanctuary and happy to lend their fighting skills for the cause. Always happy to lend a helping hand, especially when I get to bring home America more at the end of the day, the Supreme General Trophy. Let's go get her all. I got to like a cool. Maybe from you can be around. I will lead the huns. You have no where to go. Your escape is my show. Oh the stars are line. Up? You army? Are you? She did what? General Merkley has a guard on her, but she evaded him. She certainly keeps life interesting. I assume she's been confined to base. She goes from the tent to the mess to the gym, and that's it. You oversee it both days. But she has a guard on our twenty four to seven. Where you've been spending your time. I met this woman, Michelle in Reno. Miss long legs. Huh, yes, she's well. She's something I have not had in a lot of years. I feel you. I can't wait for my something to finally get back home. We lost Nevada. We did, It's gone, Patrick, The water just kept coming. How are resources here tight? We need to take Denver if we want to survive the winner. That's the plan, but we need more volunteers. The fighters want to know where Eric is. Are you ready to reveal her location? Not yet, but soon? Time miss moving fast? I am moving slong. All days. Time pass know where to go. I watch that slip of lake. As far as I can see. I left, uh straight, it did not bother. I'll be home later where you had it. I'm going to do some drawing, but you don't have your sketch book. I've been working with clay on rock. That sounds cool. You'll have to show me that sometime. I was hoping to have some time together as a family. I'm going to spend the afternoon with Meghan by the lake. I promised Trucker we would go swimming. Then, I, boy, who are you? If they did? Who's gonna go swim in? You? Are? You are. Well? At least Starr agrees with us, don't you superstar? Actually, Kyle is going to head out with the next patrol team. We were going to go into town for dinner tonight. You still got me, baby, I guess so. Oh I'm not good enough for you. Now I'll make it worth your while. Oh Mom, come. On, bye mom? Bye dad? Yeah? Come on? Why do I get scared when you have that look in your eyes? What look? I promise we won't break many rules. The training field. This should be fun. Victoria, can you cover us? I know we only have a couple hours before Hensley, we'll be looking for us. We'll be back before then. You know, I will come on. Bit's through here. This is the backside of the homesteads. Where have you been spending your time lately? You'll see Heger? Hello, Karen? Who do you have with you today? You know you're not supposed to tell anyone about the back root? This is my husband Eddie. All right? That works. I have heard a lot about you. I am there and this is my brother in arms. Ned. That's funny because I haven't heard much about you. Nice to meet you. I am not surprised. This woman is quite a mystery. Sometimes she sneaks back and forth. I have figured people have their. Own business and it isn't any of my concern. You got any smoke? We can't stay long. Oh right, girl, don't get your pennies wrinkled up. I have done here. Let us head back to the forge. Wow, this is incredible. What do you think I do around here? Sitting around here yanking my chain all day? Meadow is the game. And earns my game. Very nice, guys? Do sound. Got of work myself? The Please wake me up? The feeling enough? Oh? If you're not in uniform? Nah? My wife keeps me in shape. I train a lot, but I'd rather grow food. I do keep myself ready, but I'm not sold on one oppressive force over another. Makes me worry. Respect your superiors, but neil to know what Thor would smile upon you, my friend. It's been a while since I had anything like that. I'm good, guys. How do you like the Homestead Garden? They're running a very tight system. I have some suggestions to make the pumps more efficient. I know what I need to do. Eddy, we gotta go. She keeps you on a tight schedule. Yeh, see the boss. I feel your pain, brother, it was very nice meeting you. I am going to get Lars to talk to you about that system. I think it could help anytime. Babe, we have to go. Don't let me keep you. There. You are. That was close. Karen Henley will be here any second. Sorry, it won't happen a yet. Good evening, prevaate case you're headed to dinner. You know there's no one back in the town. No, I think we're gonna skip dinner tonight. Hey everyone, this is Phil Radley from the Matter of Facts podcast Voice and the Role of cole verges.

For the deacon. We only have one focused gentleman. I'm just saying, Tram better have a big man out there in the stream. Snipers in the dea wars. Teaching, fight us over here everywhere else over there, that's us boys, name Sinry Chester. What's your training background? Private defense contracting? Arms up so I can scan you for a chip. I don't have a chip. No, you don't have. You fought with the Mercenary Army before now. I survived my family down south, but the war over took my land and the took my family. I'm ready for some payback, all right? These men with you, yes, sir, we met along the way. I'd proudly die in battle with any of them. Good. It makes my job easier. Here's your tent number. You report your Lieutenant Colonel Dusty Jackson in the morning. Oh five hundred, Yes, sir, we'll be there. Nicely done, TJ Or should I say, Henry. You're going to have to leave Sheila in your dent. Henry, You're probably right. Let's get cleaned up and go get a drink. What we have been walking all day. I'm not going to bed without a shot. There's a bottle that you are big Surgery. I'm going to get a drink. If you want to stay in sleep. Do it. I'll go with you. TJ. I'm a game. What about you, Carl. I'm going to bed. We've got an early morning. See Surgery, there's no shame in it. I'm going then, let's go. You same with one that you don't. I'm done with sec instances. As a. Dinner was excellent, Kyle. I've never eaten noodles like that before. Robin bowls are made with all kinds of ingredients. Kind of like survival stew with noodles, survival ste. Yeah, as you travel, you pick all of the edibles that you can find. You put it all together in a pot and water. Oooh, survival stew sounds delightful. Hey, don't knock it till you try it. But I have to admit some stews are better than others. Romen is kind of the same way. What are you looking at me like that for? What was that for? You're so beautiful, Kyle. You know I'm not ready for another relationship. It's just been too rough. After Sean, mister fumble bumble. You shouldn't lose any sleep over him. You didn't know him like I did. But we jumped into things so fast, and before I knew it, we were married and then he left me. I'm not going to leave you. I would run away with you right now. No, you wouldn't. I sure would. Let's go. I can't do that anymore either. My folks need me, and nothing is going to get easier for them. We are in too deep now. I know I'm just teasing. Trust me. I knew immediately I would die for that woman if someone asked. Me, don't even say that. I'm just saying I'm all in as well. Thanks, Kyle. I'm going to go get us another drink. If the waitress is that busy, she could probably use a hand. That's the daughter teaching. What was her name, sky Star? Yeah, that's right over there. I'm going to talk to through. No, you can't. She may be able to identify you. Good, I'll take her out back and. We can't blow our cover surgery. Shut your damn out, fish you you go talk to her? Why scout it? Okay? Teaching? Hi? Hello, I know you're from somewhere. I haven't been in town long. Where are you from? I just came in from Texas? Or weren't you with. That band the Renegades? Yeah? I knew I saw you somewhere. That was a. Great show in Louisiana. What are you doing here managing another band? No? I left the. Band and came out west when the Northern invasion happened. That's why I'm here to help take back the North. You're fighting with the forces. I sure am, are you? I do fight, but I also cook in the mess. No, I actually cook for the general. No kidding? Look at you? Can I help you, mister Crenshaw? This lady is spoken for. That's funny because she didn't mention that to me. Well, I'm sure you just misunderstood. She's fired too beautiful to be with a pretty boy like yourself. Okay, that's quite enough, gentleman. I can speak for myself, and no, I am not spoken for, Thank you. Star. Wait what did she sound like a feisty ass woman just like her mother? What'd you find out. She's cooking for the general? Oh that's nice and private. Baby. I'm coming coming for you, baby, I'm coming man, come Manoya baby, I'm coming coming. Foy up, baby, I'm coming coming, foy. Baby again, I'm coming. It's so nice that you came by in the morning. I know you're not a morning person. But you are. I missed you. Roxy is so excited to get to learn from your mom again. Star went on and on about the leather outfit Roxy was going to make her so she could look sexy. I don't think Kyle cares about a leather outfit. He is rather spending with her, isn't he? Is she scared because of what happened with what was that guy's name, Sean? I don't think so. What about Dexter? Has he had a girlfriend? He liked this girl, Carolyn and Minnesota, but she was the mayor's daughter. She was just playing him. Well, at least he got to play. Oh, come on, he's always been good friends with Meggan. They've been spending a lot of time together lately. Knock knock, Good morning, Hi Nancy. How are we this morning? Can't complain? How is your night with Walter? What's this now? It was very nice? Oh? Dang, play on player. She didn't tell you no, Yes, I'm not in m loop. Come on, let's go get some breakfast. One if we know. For one another, we just know. We'm both figser. Just waiting. Hi.

Well, I don't want to be there. Staff Sergeant Berkeley will be the den of me. And why do you go You can make a living or at least survive on your artwork. I have to protect my mom. That's why the staff sergeant has it out for me. He knows who my mom is. Your mother? Your mother seems like she can take care of herself. Yeah, but they would use me to get to her. Who would the federal forces? I'm sorry, I'm not supposed to talk about it. What did your mother do. She's always fought for me and I can't even. Why would they come after her family? It doesn't add up. Son, they would I saw with my owner eyes, and all I could do was run like a coward. Come with me. Wow, it's a beautiful training room. My passion for painting comes from my love of the sword. I'm not worthy of your training, sir. You know what I did. I've already decided. If you turn me down now, it would be a great insult. But sir, I have a bit truthful with you. Does this have to do with your mother? Yes, sir, my name is Daniel Moore. I'm the son of Erica Moore, the lone survivor of Sacramaro. Good for you, son, that's even more reason for me to train you. But Sir Daniel, I'm more concerned with the side of yourself you keep buried, not the temporary lie you're living to keep your family safe. Here, take this training sword. The sword is an extension of yourself, a brush that you can use to paint your imagery onto the battlefield. Think of painting, think of the image you want to create. Work your sword like your brush. Good. Now, learn to work outside of your palate, feel the emotion behind the strokes, and let them flow out of the end of the sword. A good Dad, that's very good. You must know yourself inside if you expect to influence the energy outside of you. I could stop the mister Roland. You kill my friends, shot of down like they were, I say my grammar, But I ran away and hid. They would have captured me to get my mom. Who would have been my fault? Sounds to me like you. Let wisdom and your brilliant colors guide your life. The path before us is not always clear, but if we put one foot in front of the other, the strokes in the canvas become an inspiration for others. And now, my young student, he must let your feet carry you home. Me have much to learn tomorrow. Thank you, mister Rowan. I'll expect you right after lunch tomorrow. Yes, sir, I'll be here. I don't want to be trout, wanna be done. I want to be stuck in the stool, don't want to be trapped, don't want to be down looking for a new s. Hi, Carmen, Pi Daniel, where are you coming back from so quickly? I was just out drawing, you know me? There's so much activity here. I haven't seen you at oh after morning PT. We are going to have a big soccer game tomorrow. Are you gonna play? I don't think so common. I told this lady that I would do a portrait of her. Are you serious? What's up, dude? You haven't been acting like yourself lately. I know, I just need time to think. It's nice to be able to relax once in a while. His staff started to Murky's always on me at PT. I just needed up break. That guy sure does have it out for you. I think maybe he's just pissed his dad put him in charge of training the kids. But why you? Who knows? My mom? Oh that makes sense? Or his underwear or too tight and his balls are getting crushed all day. I gotta go my gray light. Grandpa will be waiting for me. I think we're all going to dinner tonight. Anyway, Let me tell my mom what's up and I'll go with you. That would be great. Hi, Daniel, I haven't seen you around in a while. I've been busy. I guess so your mom just left to get cleaned up for dinner. We're going over there to meet them? Is that Okay, Mom, sounds good to me. You want to. Look for new s, I gotta go. Why the afternoon is still young? I know, I just can't shake a feeling, and I gotta go check it out. You worry about her too much. With good reason. You saw what she did to the mayor's wife because that grunt couldn't keep his eyes on her. She only needs a minute to get into trouble. Why is it your problem? Patrick? So Eric is my responsibility. I molded that woman for resistance. I trained her to be the fighter she is. When you create something like that, you can't just let it run wild. Give yourself too much credit. You don't think existed in her before. You got a hold of her. You know it did. But I honed it, read it, encouraged it. I needed her story, her tenacity, and her heart. She turned me into the man you love, and I was helping her make a stand. Then I guess I should be thanking her. Go do what you gotta do and take it easy on the woman. She's been through a lot. I will don't worry. How's she doing? Staff Sergeant? Oh ah, good sir, she's in the bathroom right now. Though. That's fine. I'm headed over to talk with Lieutenant Colonel Vergess. I'll be black. I have to hang the pandana for Erica. I can get allah, I can get allah. Yeah, Because with you, it's trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble. Try to set you free, try to let it be. Well. If you it's trouble. Mm wow, coupka, that must have been one hell of a bomb you dropped in there. I'm not really feeling that good. You're looking tired and your eyes are all boodshot. Maybe it's allergies of something. You should go see your father in law. I think i'll just go back to the tent. I can talk to him when he comes home. I'll walk you there. No, really, first, Sergeant, it's fine. I insist, Erica. Well, if you insist, but let's go. But you've got that trouble right and drawing of it. But I ask Phenomena, you go on and saye try to be fable. It just makes. You guys. Wait here, I'll be back. Where are you headed to my contact? I'm going with you. You have my consulting services. I'm going come on, sir, as you were Rodriguez, what do you got for me. God, you could make it, Sir. We've located a place to secure the target. Well done, Rodriguez, explain yourself. Behind the base building, there's a hole in the fence. The target leaves the base, traveling down a wooded path to the homestead. Parameter, there's a whole there. And Edika visits with some guy at the homesteads. Is she under guard? No? Such sounds like easy pickings, Commander, What about the husband. It goes out to the gardens and the homesteads and trains in the gym. He'll be much harder to acquire. The kids. Star works in the kitchens, The eldest boy, Dexter, works for the Merks on sniping and scout teams, and the youngest boy, Daniel, goes into the homesteads each day after the training at the base. In the morning, the whole family is using Elias's here. First Sergeant Bennet's hiding them. Someone got a promotion where his first Sergeant Bennett. He trains teams most days, but at nights and in the morning he has a lady friend that he spends most of his time with. To see Nowhereica sneaks out. I don't think so, sir. She has a female guard that wastes in the Murk training center. He's been getting that relaxed. It could be our lucky day. Thanks for the information, Rodriguez. Let's go through some scouting before the night falls. Sounds like I'm plan. Hi, Les Magical. Maybe jam I'm from you and al.

Visit prepperbroadcasting dot com for your dose of self reliance and independence. You've been hitting it really hardly, right every afternoon. Well, you've been out playing smooth cheap as. Let's see what you're pushing these days. Then, honestly, I haven't been in here much. I've been out on the field, practicing martial arts, forums, sprints, and working on agility. It sounds like excuses to me. Are we gonna train or argue? Don't get all defensive. I was just checking on your progress. I'm actually going to spend the afternoon with Michelle. I was just seeing how you're doing. You too, are getting really close, aren't you. I like spending time with her it's been a while since I found. A woman like that. That's good, Bennett, It's about time. Well, I'll catch up with you later. He's poking around a lot. He'll be so busy with Michelle he'll never even notice I'm gone. Your search pattern is still off, cupcake, Son of a bitch. There's a hole in the fence over the river and through the woods. Where are you growing up? Scotch to a hole in the back of the homestead fence? Who are those guys smoking and fishing the homestead fighters? Oh? Yeah, she's been training her butt off that. Sneaky little I can get Nollah, I can get Nolla. Yeah, because with you is job travel travel, job. Hi, Nancy? Hi? Patrick is Eddie around? No? He should be at the mess though. Didn't he eat with Erica? He had to help his mom with a project before lunch, so they ate separately. I know he's headed out to the homestead after lunch. Is everything okay? For sergeant? Knowing my daughter, she's probably off somewhere causing trouble. You know her too well, ma'am you too take care? Now? Why I plead tied on and down a by keep us up? You got my trouble. I'm enjoyab bit, but my husband. No, you go hi, and. You guys mind if I join you. You're not out with Michelle this afternoon? Oh yeah, Michelle, it's spending on after you with. Eric Thissen't I miss long Legs? Yes, Mitchell, we met Marino and connected again here. I'm not out with Michelle today because I was going to train with Erica. Where is she? Sounds like trouble brewing, and wouldn't you know I just finished up? Yeah, me too. I gotta get back to the kids. And I'm gonna get back and check on hanging well. Bennett, where is she? That's what I was going to ask you. Don't you have a guard on her? Yeah? Her guard is posted out at the abandoned training field where Erica should be. I'll deal with that later. Sounds like you got a problem. Vince, We have a problem. Did you know she goes and hangs out with the fighters from Homestaffs. They're out there fishing and doing drugs. You mean the Colorado Boys. They're nice guys, Bennett. She already took me to meet them. Did you know Gear makes knives really good ones too? You like him as far as the drugs, it's just a little weed, Bennett, Like, Uh, she's been through hell and now she must hide so that she's not hunted every day. She hates not being able to rally the troops, so smokes a little weed down again to fight off the physical and psychological thing. Cares. You're fine with your wife gallivanting around with men like that, aren't you worried about? What about her cheating? Okay, Bennett, beyond the fact that I trust Erica with one hundred percent of everything that I am. If you got to know those guys, you find out they're all family men. They're no more interested in Erica for the same reason that you are. She should be training and preparing for Denver, not filling her days with R and R. Look who's talking. She's been on lockdown, left. Alone to train all day, So she. Met some new friends in the process. She's safe in their walls. Maybe you're right, thence we've all been run through the ringer. Maybe we all need some time to get our soul strength. She'll be ready when you need her. You know her. She'll step up to whatever plate you need her to. So Bennett, don't be too hard on her and her guard for letting her take a break. What do you care about her guard? You didn't know. Erica and Victoria go way back. Victoria was one of her first students at the Las Vegas camp. The skills Erica gave her landed her in a prison where Merkley found her. Those sneaky women, they didn't say anything about that. I had absolutely no idea. Victoria is loyal to Erica. Getting her in trouble won't do either of them very well. You know what, Vince, what's that? It's a good thing. I came to find you before he went off and did something stupid. See, you can teach an old dog new. Tricks, you know, Vince. It's been a while since we got in the ring together. That because I'm not stupid. I'll be ready when you need me too. With how getting in the ring with. You job, A're enjoy a bit. We're not as phenomena. You go insane, China. It just made the same. Job. Hello cupcake, Holy. Shit, Bennett, what are you trying to do? Give me a heart attack? Where's your guard? Erica? She's back up the field. What were you doing? You followed me? You can see the lake from the fence. You know exactly what I was doing. I do and I'm not happy, but I am trying to understand it. You are. I would have liked to see some self discipline and focus on training, but overkill can be a bad thing too. Sometimes the soul needs time to heal. I'm also not filled with your choice of friends. I like that you're free to choose your own friends. I just want you to know my opinion. Are you just messive with me? Bennett? I know you're an alien impostor what happened to the real Bennett? I understand how hard it is to be hidden here. The major problem I'm having with your route is the lack of a guard. You know how impossible one on three could be. You're not wrong. Gleeson knows you're leaving right. You can tell me. She won't receive a formal. Reprimand yeah, she knows I want her to go with you. She can wait hidden there the hole in the homesteaders fence. Thanks Bennett. I really wasn't expecting that. I'm not letting you off the hook completely. I want you training at least every other day in the afternoon, and since you aren't putting as much time in the afternoon. We'll just have to step up morning sessions, Steph, Sargeant Gleeson, are you missing something yet, sir Steph. I'm obviously not happy with the situation. Erica and I have discussed it and you are to follow her. Yes, sir. This lack of attention to detail will cause you some extra work in the morning. Pet Sessions, I expect to see you in the ring with me tomorrow and we'll start specializing your training. Yes, sir, I'm. Getting tired of taking orders from that redneck TJ. She was getting lonely, spending all day in the tit by herself. See that sergeant over there teaching the kids. Yeah, that's General Merkley's kid. No wonder he looks so pissed off. What else do you got? Are we going to be able to pull this off? It's going to be a trick, Carl. I thought Bennett busting Erica on the trail was going to kill that opportunity. But she's back out. There, really, and it allows the guard goes with her the female, Yes, sir, easy pickings. What about the rest of the family, you know? On the fine of assassination jobs, Carl and that was the order. I've been thinking about it. The tent at night, there's a lot of guards around. It's the only time they're all together. Ben, and is it with them? We get Eric on the trail and the rest of the tent that night. Hell, with just one female guard, you and I could take them and we can have a surgery. Gerber Ambishop finished the job at the tent. It made just work. I know it will come on. Let's change the route. There's their tent. See, they're all in there playing cards. They're used to Erica's absence. Now we just need to know when she'll be on the trail. Did you connect with our contract in Sedulia. Yes, sir, They've got the information on the command units in Denver and the people to give us another invasion for us, but they are lacking weapons. Do we have surplus to arm them? We do, Sir. I'd like to have a larger force, mercenaries trained. What's the problem the people, They're tired, they want a moment, a calm. They'll never have it. They'll become slaves and outcasts to the Central region. They already are, Sir. One step at a time. If we take Denver, we control the West. What's our timeline? Look like Cassidy was gonna pull as many forces from the South as she could bolster the militia forces. I'll have to see what she comes up with. When is she expected back? I don't know, sir. Communications have been slow. Let me know as soon as we have the answer. We need coordination with the force we have left in the north. Yes, sir, sir, can I get a moment of your time? What's up, Bennett? What do you know about the guys that lead the Homesteaders defense? The Colorado Boys? Good guys. Cassidy's related to Gear. He's a cool guy, goes on and on about his Viking GUIDs. They're all good fighters. I haven't got a chance to know them very well. Why I saw them training in the gym? I was curious why they weren't fighting with us. I wouldn't worry about them. They don't bother us. We don't bother them. How's Eric had been doing? Good? Just good? There's no Erica news. Nope, she's been training in under Guard. Okay, anyway, thanks sir. I'm going to meet Michelle for dinner. I'll see you later. As I can see. I love them. Straight. It did not bother me.

Here you go. This one is ready for a handle. I'm on it. The refugee fighters are going to love this. Here. Everyone must have a knife. Hello, little sister, when did you get back in town? Hi? Jear? How the hell are you? I cannot complain? Well, I could, but it wouldn't make a difference. Then it told me Erica was here with you. I gotta say, I'm surprised you took. That well, Erica. This is Karen. What do I take well? Karen? What are you talking about? Is really Erica Moore? I'm the lone survivor of Sacramento. You're the what the fuck? I'm sorry, dear. I wanted to tell you, but I couldn't. If the fans knew I was here, it would put everyone in danger. You bitch, you killed my father. I could break you like a tag jeer. She's jeered, don't I challenged her. I hated her. We fought with Nige to the death, and she's a skilled warrior. I have the scars to prove it. But she's also a skilled leader. Think about what you're doing. The resistance needs her alive. I could give a shit about resistance. My father was a misdirected coward and he died at a woman's hands. She's my friend and a respected fighter. I will never forgive you. If you do this cure told the truth. You need to want it go. I have more reason to respect her than. I do my own father. I loved Dad, but what's done is done. She did what she did to save the soldier. She was with her warrior spirit dominated that day. It wasn't easy for me to come to terms with it either, but I have. This is life now, are you okay? Yeah? It's nice to see you, Cassidy. I didn't realize this was your brother. Cheer took his Nordic name after Dad formed the Western Resistance. It is a name I could respect. The Nordic God smiled upon me the day that I made it official. Erica, can you come with me? We need to talk. Sure, you can talk here. You don't want to hear about this. It's just resistance talk. Maybe I do. Okay? Then, Philip, will you check the perimeter? Yes, ma'am. Eli do you want to lay it out. The time to von Denver's fast approaching. The last quay took a big toll in the central region. They lost a new clear power play on the Illinois coastline. The fall I was affecting the Appalachian region as well. We're having a hard time getting people out because the ships can't move through the radiation. While the fans deal with that, we need to be taking the western region. It's time to step out of the shadows, Erica, and start. Rallying the truth. It's about time. Are you gonna fight with us? Brother? I need to discuss this with my family and the fighters. That battle may be too close for us. What if they come here to the homestead while you forces are in Denver. You can make your own decision, just like you always have. I'll let you know when we're ready to head out. Come on, I need to speak with General Merkley. I can't walk out the gay, Cassidy, Then how the heck do you get home? There's a hole in the fence that I use. I'm not authorized to be here. I'll just sneak out, get my guard and meet you at the base. Philip, go and get her guard over here. We're walking out the gate. Erica Moore will not sneak around in my home. Is everything okay? Cassidy and says, we use the gate. But Bennett, I have the authority here. Hello, young lady, it's great to have you back. Thanks Lurs. It appears my brother there's been keeping everything in order. Why is she inside the homesteads? She's my guest. Do you know what this woman did? She she caused the mayor's wife to lose an eye, and she broke three of her ribs. She probably hadn't coming. Do you know who this is, Lars, I guess not. This is Erica Moore, the lone survivor of Sacramento and the savior of the refugees, and my. Son saved your grandson. Just say, you know I expected you to be bigger. You're just the little thing, mean but little. I thought the same thing. And lords, but this woman can fight. I get that a lot. We'll see you boys later. Come on, Erica, try to make space your third in salons A push pastor Gleason? Okay, dad, come on, can we have. To get you out of here? There were here? Now fall back to the compound. Did you hear that? I heard that. It's pasted the time when she comes back by something happened. Come on, hey, gurly, excuse me, what's going on? Haven't you heard Cassidy Baker returned and the loan survivor self is here. We're taking dev but sure to victory. Well freedom, What would you do with a girly? What are we going to do now? The game board just changed completely. We'll have to regroup, scout it again and come up with a new plan. Who knows how long it'll take. We can do this, Tja. We're so close, much closer than I've been before. We'll stick around and see if we can't get the job done. Same truth. That was fun there goes our cover. It doesn't matter anyways. Where's General Merkley. Don't look at me like that you knew what would happen? Seriously, Bennett, I was going to sneak back out, but Cassidy insists that we use the gate. Are you wonder her orders? No? But whose orders are you to follow? Yours, sir? But she said there was no way Erica Moore was sneaking around her home. The great Erica Moore. Don't let it go to your head, Cupcake. Ow you've started up quite a hornets nest. Now, Erica Nickelton, go check it out. Yes, sir, Two dead and one injured, just from a stroll across the camp. Cassidy insists that we use the gate. Bryant's no sirt. New recruits. They want help. They heard Erica is here and they want to fight with her. We'll need all the help we can get to take denver is Eric okay? Intact? Well, I guess the ja is up. Cassidy made one howl of a grand appearance. Don't you try to run away from shadows, They always catch up. Learn to face whatever demon's come your way. Don't become the stranger too hard labor. There's no the way. Hear me, I say, if you this straight and if you win to way, you gonna get the way. See if you can take some ray, you get twice the sign, my. Friend, same, You'll get there.
