Maggie Page #3

I mean, how many other

people have people

locked away? You know?

What should Bonnie have done?

What would you do?

What should my dad

do to me? Quarantine?

Do you know

what it's like there?

My uncle works

at the hospital in KC.

He said that they tell

people everything's nice.

That they'll--

they'll hold your hand

until the end,

but they don't.

They throw you in a big room

with everyone else.

They don't

separate the phases.

Everyone's all

bunched up together,

people eating people,

and they don't care.

So what would you do?

You know what

I would do to me?

I'd put a gun right here.

Bang.

Mason's a dick.

He's just afraid.

Yeah, but he's still a dick.

You know he stayed over

the night before I got bit?

Played video games

and got into all of Dad's beer.

And when he found out,

he put me to work in the

field the next morning.

She looked really bad, Mag.

I don't know why I went

over to her, but I did.

Felt bad, I guess.

I told her to stay there,

but when I turned around

to call for Dad...

she bit me.

I could see it in her eyes.

She regretted it.

Probably didn't

even know she did it.

Then Dad showed up.

He shot her in the chest

and in the head.

I'm sorry.

- It's not your fault.

No. No. I mean...

about us.

I figured I'd done

something wrong.

No. I was just...

scared, I guess.

Yeah. Me, too.

I missed you.

I missed you, too.

I missed that.

So did I.

Well...

Thanks.

Yeah. I'm gonna see you

again this weekend, right?

Yeah. I promise.

Okay. Well, I'm going

to hold you to it.

Yeah, when don't you?

Hey, wait. Wait.

I love you, okay?

I love you, too.

-I'm gonna let you go.

-Okay.

Dad?

Hey.

There's no need to shout.

He's downstairs.

-Let me see.

-Not too close.

I'll be fine.

Do you smell that?

No.

Are you sure?

It smells like food.

It's probably your father

cooking up something

you shouldn't have.

I'll get the drops.

Wade?

Caroline?

You find the drops?

No! No. Hold on a sec.

Oh, hey, did you find them?

Thanks.

So, what was Dad cooking?

-Caroline?

-Oh, uh...

Nothing. Hm... Nothing.

Maggie? Phone!

Hello?

Trent?

What?

Trent.

Please.

Just open the door.

Please.

What are you doing in here?

Just let me talk to him.

Trent?

Maggie.

I can't open the door.

I smelled him, Mag.

I can't go to quarantine.

We're ready for the extraction

and will confirm with you

-that we are en route.

-Easy, gentlemen. Easy.

Go ahead with the extraction.

Your uncle said he

would take care of you!

-He said it wouldn't

be like the others.

-I won't go!

Look, I know

that you're scared.

I am, too.

But you are so strong.

I've always seen that in you.

Just... just let me in!

This is the police.

We are entering the home!

Let's go.

Get away from the door,

Maggie.

Maggie? Please?

You need to open the door!

Come on, son.

It's time.

Trent?

Just open the door.

Step back, son.

Dad? Please? Dad, please!

-Dad! Dad! Dad!

-Listen.

-It's gonna be okay! Trent!

-Maggie!

- It's gonna be okay!

Go home, Maggie.

Just go home.

Dais? Maggie!

Wade? Oh!

- Maggie!

Wade!

Wade!

We have to take her in!

-No! No! No!

-We have to take her in now!

No!

Look at me. Look at me.

Good, Daisy baby.

That's good.

Now tell me.

What happened?

-Hey, come on.

-Don't!

I'm not moving!

I'm not moving.

He was afraid of me.

I didn't know it.

I didn't know it.

I swear, I didn't know it.

I didn't know it.

What was?

What was afraid of you?

The fox. The fox.

I heard--

I heard it and then I--

and then

I caught it in the trap,

and it smelled...

I couldn't stop.

I couldn't stop.

I couldn't stop.

Daddy, I just

wanted to help it!

Daddy, I just wanted

to help it! I'm sorry!

Don't.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Wade, please,

just call them.

It's time now.

She has to go in.

What if it was Molly?

Or Bobby?

After everything

that we've been through,

you still think

it's about that?

I've loved her

like she was my own,

but she's

not her anymore.

-Wade, please.

-Don't.

I'm chewing so loud.

She was afraid of me,

wasn't she?

When did she leave?

Yesterday.

I don't feel well.

You got enough

firewood there?

Well, if you'd get

the power turned back on again,

I wouldn't have

to do this everyday.

Well, you know

that's not my department.

So, why are you here?

Need to talk

to you about Mag.

The time's come, Wade.

Can we see her?

- This is bullshit.

- Holt.

No. She's well beyond the time.

She needs to be in quarantine.

We've got

an entire town to protect!

I'm going

to the house, Wade.

You know she needs

to be in quarantine.

Wade...

Get out of my way.

Now, come on, boys.

We don't need this.

Wade, just...

let us take a look at her.

All right?

You're not gonna

take her in.

--Wade!

--Wade!

- Stop it!

Leave us alone.

Maggie, you tell me

you're doing okay,

and we'll leave. All right?

- Ray, look at her.

I'm all right.

Good.

That's all

I needed to know.

Get your ass in the car.

Get in the goddamn car.

- Now, Ray...

- Shut up and listen.

I'll be back.

Between now and then,

you need to figure out

what you're gonna do.

I'm sorry about

what happened. I am...

but you and her ain't

the only ones in this town.

- Are you okay?

- Are you?

- Yeah.

- What happened?

- Sit down.

They wanna

take me away, don't they?

Don't worry.

You're not going anywhere.

There's something

I want to show you.

It's Mama's garden.

But how?

It was your idea.

Before you ran off,

you said that I should plant

some daisies in Mom's garden.

That they would grow.

After you left,

I planted some.

And when we came back,

this was here.

It's the most

beautiful thing ever.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

You have to promise me

that you'll do it.

Please.

Promise me that

you'll make it stop.

I just can't...

I can't do it anymore.

You know?

Please, Dad. Please?

You have to do it.

Please.

- Please.

-Okay, baby.

This is what they

give the quarantined.

You want

my personal opinion?

Use that instead.

Hey, munchkins.

I just wanted to call

to say that I love you guys.

Bobby, Holly.

I just wanted to say...

Is that you, Holly?

Tell him thank you

for bringing me home.

I just...

It was horrible.

I'm so lucky

to have you.

- Dais?

- -No.

No.

Maggie, what happened?

--Maggie!

Maggie! Snap out of it!

Maggie! Snap out of it!

--Come on!

Come on, don't do this!

Not yet. Maggie?

Snap out of it. Come on.

Daddy?

Daddy?

- That's my girl.

-That's my baby.

-Daddy.
