As Lee, Randy, Howard, and Molly walk back to their group, suddenly they hear a noise, and it sounds like a wood floor has been stepped on. When the noise stops, they begin to walk further to investigate where the noise came from, and then Ben shows up with something on his hand.
Randy and Howard: Aaaaah!
Molly: Jesus!
Lee: Shit! Ben!
Howard: What the cheese, Ben?!
Ben: Sorry, Sorry. I just got spooked by those bell. And then I heard someone coming…
Randy: It's okay, Ben. We're all spooked too.
Howard: From your jumpscare, duh!
Ben: I said I'm sorry.
Lee: Did you leave Clementine alone?
Ben: No, Kenny, Bucky, and the others are with her. We still can't open that armory door; he sent me out to look for something we can use to bust it open.
I found this.
Ben shows them something in his hand, and it's a hatchet, much to Randy, Howard, and Lee's horror.
Lee: Um Ben... Where did you get that?
Ben: I just found it. It was stuck in a door handle at the end of the hallway back there.
Lee: Oh no...
Randy: Ben, that's the hatchet that holds the door, so the walkers won't get it! What do you think you're doing?
Howard: BEN! YOU'RE A HONKIN IDIOT!
The walkers burst in from the front door.
Lee: Shit!
Howard: They're coming!
Molly attacks them while Lee tries to aim a gun at one of the walkers. As Molly manages to kill a few walkers, but suddenly one of them grabs her pickaxe.
Molly: LEE! Shoot this fucker!
Randy: Lee! Hurry!
The walker gets shot, and Molly is free. Lee was surprised that it wasn't him who shot the walker.
Randy: Great shot, Lee!
Molly: Thanks.
Lee: It wasn't me...
Howard: It was Clementine, guys.
Lee and Randy turn around, and in their shock, they see Clementine holding the gun.
Molly: Good going, kid. Nice shot.
Clementine: Thanks…
Lee and Randy are proud of Clementine.
Randy: Good job, Clem!
Lee, Randy, Howard, Clementine, Molly, and Ben left the hallway and ran to the classroom when more walkers showed up. Upon getting inside the classroom, Brie holds the door shut and stands by it to make sure no walkers get in. Kenny heard what happened outside.
Kenny: What the fuck is going on?
Randy: They're coming!
Kenny: Oh, shit.
Bucky: Oh no... I can hear them from the outside.
Vernon: That oughta hold 'em.
Brie: Sure… but now how do we get out?
Kenny: Through the armory If we can just get this damn door open.
Howard: Are you done with the door yet? We need to get the cheese out of here!
Kenny: Not yet. I'm trying!
Kenny tries to bust down the door. Ben then gave the hatchet to Lee, who was now feeling disappointed to Ben
Kenny: Come on... damn you!
Ben: This is my fault... All my fault!
Christa: What the hell's he babbling about?
Randy: Ben, not now!
Christa: No, I want to know what he meant.
Christa looked at Ben with stern and curious looks.
Christa: What do you mean, this is all your fault?
Bucky: Ben. Please don't!
Ben: Kenny, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, man…
Kenny: Kid, this ain't the best time! Whatever you did, save it for later!
Ben: I opened the door, I let them in…
Kenny: I said save it for after we get outta here!
Howard: Fine! Go ahead and tell him, you shoob!
Douglas(rc9gn): Yeah, I want to hear what Ben said!
Howard: SHUT IT, DOUGLAS (rc9gn)!
Randy: Ben, we don't have time for this now!
Ben: I'm sorry, Randy. I can't do this anymore. He's got a right to know.
Christa: Know what?
Lee: Ben! Shut the fuck up!
Ben: Fuck you, Lee! I can't do this anymore!
Ben decided to confess everything that happened.
Ben: It's been me all along. Putting all of us in danger. Katjaa and Duck... It was all me. It was all me.
Kenny finally busts down the armory door and is shocked when he hears Ben.
Kenny: Wait a minute… what are you saying?
Bucky: Ben. Please.
Ben: It was me who made the deal with the bandits at the motor inn, slipping them supplies. I thought maybe I could keep them off our backs. When it got discovered, that's when Duck…
Kenny, upon hearing what Ben says after bashing the door open, becomes furious and attacks Ben, only to be held back by Vernon, Randy, and Lee while Bucky shields Ben.
Lee: Kenny! Enough! Calm down, man!
Randy: Kenny, I know you're angry, but Ben didn't mean to do this. This is all just a mistake!
Kenny: I don't give a fuck! You little pissant! You are fucking dead, you hear me? Dead! My wife and child, you got them both fucking killed!
Lee: Kenny! I said calm the fuck down!
Howard: Yeah, Kenny. You should save your rage for later. Once we arrived in the mansion, you could beat his skinny butt.
Lee, Randy, and Bucky: HOWARD!
Howard: What? It's all his fault in the first place.
Lee, Vernon, and Randy let go of Kenny once he calmed down, Molly sarcastically said.
Molly: Nice group you got here.
Lee: Not the time, Molly.
Kenny: If this asshole thinks he's getting on my boat after what he did, he's out of his motherfucking mind! You hear me, shitbird? You can stay behind and fucking rot!
Bucky: Kenny, please! Forgive Ben.
Kenny: Shut UP, KID!
Bucky took a deep breath and said,
Bucky: You know what. I'm also involved with Ben's theft of supplies. Instead of telling you guys, I helped Ben because I knew how he felt and because he's my friend too. There! There's no secret anymore that I'm hiding from you.
Bucky's confession enraged Kenny even more.
Kenny: YOU FUCKING BROWNNOSER!
Lee: Kenny, I know you're upset. I understand, but you don't get to make a decision like that on your own. We're all in this together. We're a group.
Kenny: Sure! Take a vote! This is America; fuck it! But before you all decide, there's something you oughta know.
Randy: No, Kenny! I agree with Lee. We're a group, and you know Ben didn't mean any harm, and Bucky is trying to help keep the bandits away.
Kenny: Shut up, Randy! Am I supposed to give a crap about their good intentions?
Kenny decided to make a decision about escaping with a boat.
Kenny: The boat's not big for all of us. Somebody's gotta be left behind, might as well be those pieces of shit right here!
Kenny decided to vote Ben and Bucky behind
Douglas(rc9gn): Woah, woah, woah! You didn't intend to leave Bucky behind either, didn't you?
Kenny: I'm been serious, Douglas! This brownnoser should tell us about this shitbird stealing the supplies instead of helping!
Douglas(rc9gn): Can't we just leave Ben and not Bucky?
Kenny: NO!
Christa: Well, I vote we leave them. I'm sorry, boys. I know you two mean well, but all I want to do is get back to Omid. And you boys put that at risk.
Howard: I say we get rid of them. I don't want to stay longer with a pair of shoobies.
Douglas(rc9gn): I abstain from voting, sorry.
Clementine: Wait, don't I get a vote?
Lee: Of course you do.
Clementine: Ben's nice. And Bucky's kind and funny. They're my friends! We don't leave friends behind. That's my vote.
Clem's vote made Christa want to change her vote.
Christa: On second thoughts. I think gonna abstain. What about you guys?
Lee: I've seen enough of Crawford to know that becoming like them is the beginning of the end. I vote Ben and Bucky stays with us.
Randy: I agree. Ben and Bucky may make mistakes, but everyone makes mistakes, and we have a right to give them second chances. I want them to stay.
This makes Clementine happy, while Howard looks at Randy in disappointment.
Brie: What about the rest of us, don't we get a say in-
Brie questions whether she and Vernon get a vote or not, only to be interrupted as walkers break through the classroom door and bite Brie to death through disembowelment. As Vernon watches in horror,
Vernon: BRIE!
Molly: Now, can we go?
Randy: Let's go!
Lee: Damn right, Vernon! Come on!
Everyone runs into the armory. Lee tries to close the armory door but is unable to do so because the lock broke due to Kenny's force beforehand. The armory room turned out to be the bell tower.
Lee: So much for the armory.
Kenny: What's left of it?
Christa: A few rounds, that's it.
Howard: You couldn't close the door behind us?
Lee: I couldn't; the lock was busted!
Kenny: Great, just fucking great... Come on, there's gotta be a way out down here!
As the group climbs down the stairs. Lee opens the door, only to find the room infested with walkers.
Kenny: FUCK!
Lee closes the door, and he and Randy stay behind the door.
Lee: That's not gonna hold. Back upstairs.
The group goes back upstairs.
Kenny notices the shotgun on a guard's corpse.
Kenny: Lee, look!
Kenny took it, handed Lee a shotgun, and left. As the group begins to head up, the walkers burst in, and Lee shoots them while climbing the stairs with Randy by his side. Suddenly, a step breaks and Randy's leg gets trapped.
Randy: Ugh, I'm stuck!
Lee: Shit!
Lee sees this and shoots the walkers while Randy tries to free his leg, which he manages to do.
Randy: Thanks!
Lee: Don't mention it!
As they went upstairs, suddenly the walker came from the armory and was about to get Randy, who was nearby, but it was shot down by Christa. Lee kills some walkers upstairs with his hatchet, while Randy, who had a hunting knife in his pocket, kills some of them too. Unfortunately, Lee lost his hatchet from the last walker he killed, and he and Randy managed to reach the top floor and reunite with the group.
Clementine: Lee!
Howard: Cunningham!
Clementine hugs Lee.
Lee: It's all right, Clem. I'm fine.
Randy: Is there any way out of here?
Christa: This leads to the roof, we might be able to find a way down from there.
Vernon: You didn't come into town from the railroad did you?
Howard: Yeah, why's that?
Vernon: Never mind. I can see the sewer where we came in from here. I think we can do this.
Kenny: Well what are we waiting for? Go! Go!
The group uses the ladder to climb down from the bell tower. Upon every one (except Ben, Lee, and Randy) vacating,
Lee: Ben, come on, let's go!
The bell rings, and the trio covers their ears.
Randy: Ahh! My honkin eardrums!
A walker that had been hanging from the bell eventually grabs hold of Ben. Lee and Randy notice it, and Lee shoots it, which causes the walker to fall and Ben too, but Lee and Randy immediately grab Ben's hand.
Randy: Hold on, Ben! We got you!
Lee: Ben, climb up! Come on, you can do it!
Ben: There's no time! You two have to go now!
Randy: No, We're going to save you!
Lee: Quit fucking around, Ben! Come on!
Ben: Let go, damnit! Get Clem and the others out of here! And thank Bucky for being a good friend to me.
Kenny: Lee, Randy,
Lee looks at Kenny, who was waiting for them. More walkers show up, and Kenny leaves.
Ben: Guys. We all know.
As they were about to lose his grip.
Ben: Let me go.
Despite Ben's pleas, Randy and Lee pulled him up,
Ben: Why?
Randy: Not time! Just go!
Lee: Go! Go! Go!
Lee, Randy, and Ben climb down, making it out alive.
