[hide][top]Recap

Kelly, Michael, and Pegs continue on their journey to find the other survivors after escaping from the beach. Trying to continue south, they find a road blocked off by cars. Pegs and Kelly worry that it may be a trap, but Michael points out that the area had too many exit routes. They also notice a sign that says “Rescue,” with an arrow pointing in the direction they were headed. Pegs turns on the radio, browsing the channels and hearing some chatter. The signal comes through with a lot of static, but the people on the other side refer to an outpost. The scene cuts to Angel and Kalani as they get closer to the military base. They decide to move the broken gate out of the way in order to save their tires from getting punctured. Getting into the base, they go through the area, finding cages of MREs that had already been eaten. They do manage to find a unit’s cage that still had some, giving them an opportunity to bring food back to the tower.
The episode continues to give high hopes for the people in the tower and their survival. All hints seem to suggest that Michael, Kelly, and Pegs are heading in the right direction in order to find other survivors. Michael attempts to not get their hopes up, suggesting that it would be better than getting disappointed. Between the sign and the radio signal, they seem to be closer to finding the other group of survivors. However, it is unknown whether this other group is friendly or not. The blockade of cars seems to suggest that they are doing anything they can to keep a large group of zombies from getting to their home.
Finding food in the military outpost, Kalani and Angel also suggests that the residents of the tower will have the opportunity to have food be rationed a bit easier. Kalani and Angel seem to jaw at one another throughout the whole search, but do work together for the greater good. Both parties get through the episode with only a few minor incidents, each having to fight off a single zombie with nobody hurt. However, with both groups being in such unknown areas, it is left open on how many more zombies are in the area.

As Angel and Kalani go through the military base, they begin noticing footsteps in the area, causing Angel to take guard as Kalani secures the MREs. Regardless of his slow nature, Kalani takes over pulling the pallet while Angel begins searching for the armory. Unfortunately, somebody else had made it to the base and cleared out the guns that were left. Knowing that there wasn’t anything left, Angel continues to give Kalani and the pallet cover. Getting out of the door, Angel holds the doors shut so that Kalani can load the pallet and get the truck started. The fast zombies stop banging at the door but are replaced by a big one heading their way. Angel gets to the car and they begin to gain space on the chasing zombie, but Kalani blows out the right front tire through the gate. Leaving the food and the truck behind, they run through some buildings and are trapped in a dead end with a locked door. Preparing to fight until they die, the door is opened as Skittles gives them a bit more of a fleeting chance.
Meanwhile, Michael, Kelly, and Pegs continue to follow the signs, counting 7 signs on the way. Needing to go to the bathroom, Michael finally gets to stop, finding a place by a house that seemed a bit safer. Unfortunately, he is held up by 2 men near the house by the names of Victor and Fernando. After a bit of talking and threats that Kelly and Pegs may think they were hostile, the situation is diffused. Victor informs them that there was a rescue, but is not able to go into much detail before being informed that a wave was heading towards “Outpost 1,” telling the group that they had to move quickly.
Both groups give a wave of emotion for what the future holds for the survivors. Angel and Kalani find that the weapons and ammo had already been looted, but do manage to get the MREs loaded into the truck. Unfortunately, they are forced to leave the truck as they were chased by one of the big zombies, only able to escape death by Skittles coming out of nowhere. Also, in the other group, Michael, Pegs, and Kelly finally meet up with another group of survivors but are told that there was no actual rescue. It is also left open on how many are in Victor and Fernando’s group. Being that Victor was cut off, the audience is also left wondering what happened to the rescue station where the signs were pointing as well.
