"Good morning" David tells Carl.
"Good morning" Carl says it back.
"How did you sleep after your nightmare?" David asked Carl.
"Okay I guess.. Look David there's something I got to tell you" Carl tells David.
"What is it?"
"Last night when I went to give those blankets to sarah,-"
"Sarah?!" Asks David.
"Oh, that's right that was your girlfriends name, that's the name of that girl who is locked up in Block B"
"Oh."
"You okay?" Asks Carl.
"Yeah, yeah"
"You sure?"
"Yeah Carl. I'm fine."
"Alright."
"Now what did you want to tell me?"
"Oh... I'm sorry I snapped at you."
"Carl it's fine I understand you don't have to apologize for that! Come here"
David says while pulling Carl over for a kiss.
Judith starts crying. Carl starts to get up.
"No it's okay I got her" David tells Carl.
David gets up and grabs Judith from her crib."sh sh sh sh" David says while bouncing her back to sleep.
"Hey Carl do you mind if I have a word with you?" Asked Jarrod.
"Sure Jarrod. I'll be right back David"
"Alright"
"So what'cha need?" Carl asked Jarrod.
"Well seeing how its only me in Block c I was wondering if I could take the empty cell that's in here?"
"Oh.. Wow. It's only you." Carl says while remember his dad and Tyreese and Michone.
"Uh. Yeah sure. Of course"
Carl tells David.
"Alright thanks man , I know my dad will appreciate it."
"No problem"
"David I'll be right back I'm gonna go check on the girl"
"Alright no hurry"
Carl heads to Block B.
"Glenn, door." Carl says.
"I got it!" Says Maggie while unlocking the door.
"Thanks" Carl told her.
Carl walks up to Sarah.
"We need to talk" Carl tells Sarah.
"We gonna talk through bars or you gonna let me out?" Sarah asked.
"Follow me" says Carl while letting Sarah out of her cell.
The two of them start to walk out.
"You sure that's a good idea Carl?"
Glenn asked.
Carl ignored Glenn.
"About last night"
"Your right it was a mistake." Sarah interrupts.
"I'm sorry" Carl apologized.
"Don't be, it was fun, we just shouldn't do that again"
"Agreed"
"And I heard you had a girlfriend" Sarah teases Carl.
"Not exactly" says Carl.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, it's just, there is this guy. And when I met him we were both really lonely. So we sort of Hooked up. And now I'm not sure"
"Oh, so are you gay?"
"No. Well I didn't think so."
"Do you love this guy?"
"Well yeah but sort of like a brother, you know?"
"Yeah. I don't know, this new world changed a lot of us in a lot of ways."
"Yep... so? Did you have a boyfriend?" Carl asked Sarah.
"Yeah.. His name was Henry Gills.
We dated for about a year and a half. Then when this all started he left with his family, said he needed to get to Colorado, family there or something."
"Oh I'm sorry to hear that., how have you survived all this time?"
"I met this guy with an RV kind of a pervert. But it kept me safe and gave me a home. Anyways his name was Aaron Forest. He used to bribe me to do things for him. And in order for me to stay I had to do something's I'm not proud of." Sarah explained.
"Well we have all had to do things we're not proud of, granted it might not be the same things, but we all lost a little bit with the coming of this new world" Said Carl.
"Yeah I guess you are right." Sarah agreed.
"Carl?" David called.
"Yeah David?" Carl yells back.
"Oh so this is David? Ooh he's Australian?" Sarah teased.
"I know." Carl said smiling.
Seemingly frustrated David says,
"Where have you been? I can't get Judith to s-"
"Okay!" Carl interrupted him,
"I'll be in, in a minute."
"Who's Judith" Sarah asked.
"Uhm, I'll tell you later" Carl told her.
"Mmkay."
"So how long do you think I'll be here?" Sarah asked?
"We'll your not off the hook yet. When we get back I'm still gonna have to put you in that cell." Carl said feeling a little guilty about it.
"What? Why? Don't you trust me?" Asked Sarah.
"Yeah but, I know Glenn heard us last night. And he's already mad I took you out today."
"But you're the leader right? Who cares what that asain thinks"
"First, 'that Asians name is Glenn. 2nd, being the leader doesn't mean 'doing what ever the hell you want' It means doing what's right without loosing respect from the group"
"Wow" Sarah responded
"What?"
"You really are a good leader, that's kind of hot."
Carl smiled.
"Thank you."
The two lock eyes for a moment.
"Want to see the guard tower?"
Carl asked Sarah.
"yeah" Sarah said staring at Carls eyes.
the two of them go off towards the tower.
The sun is at the top of it's peek.
when arriving at the towers, carl opens the door and looks back to see Sarah standing there.
"You coming?" Carl asked.
"oh, yeah- of course" said Sarah as she followed Carl up the Guards towers.
