While adjusting to life in Alexandria, Daryl finds himself in an unlikely friendship with Aaron, and they discover they have more in common than they originally thought. This story is mainly Aaron/Daryl, but becomes Aaron/Paul R. for a few chapters later in the story before returning to the original pairing.

An incident leaves Aaron devastated, and at the same time a mysterious man joins the group. Not only does Daryl have to take care of the new threat Alexandria is facing, but he has to face his own demons as well.

Dean discovers a few truths about himself when he and Cas are forced to go undercover on a hunt to the very last place Dean ever thought he'd find himself: a gay resort, called "Last Hope", geared towards failing homosexual relationships.
