We are back with part two of s4ep10. No visuals with this one. Wall of text post.
We come back with Alicia laying on the floor but no Charlie on the couch. Oh no, Charlie is back upstairs with those photos.
Alicia runs up to her and says” You can’t be in here”
Charlie: No
Alicia: Get up
Charlie: No. someone might come back for them. Someone might try to find them
Alicia; Who?
Charlie: Someone
Alicia: Anyone who gave a shit about these people is dead
Charlie: You don’t know that. Look, I’m not trying to make up for what I did. Okay? I know that I can’t. I know I’m garbage but I’m doing this.
Alicia: Do whatever you want. It’s not going to make you feel any better about any of it.
Alicia walks away. Back downstairs Alicia is trying to relight that fireplace again. Fireplace lit Charlie comes in stating ” The wind is getting stronger” and starts sorting out those photos again
Alicia; Charlie. Charlie look I know what you are trying to do. No one’s gone until they’re gone. I’ve been trying to believe it too, to feel better about what I’ve done, but I can’t because sometimes when you’re gone, you’re just gone. okay? And these people are definitely gone. These pictures aren’t going to change that.
Charlie: Why do you care?
Oh no, the glass window broke in the living room but the walkers get blown away by the wind.
Oh no, the house is falling apart and Alicia says” the basement”
Oh no, the basement is really flooded now. Can’t stay here. As they run back up the stairs you hear crashing sounds and the house collapses. They are now trapped in a flooded basement. Charlie “ what will we do?” and Alicia looks around and sees the outside entrance to the basement. Oh no, its bolted shut from outside. With no way out and the basement flooding, Alicia finds two trunks to stand on to keep their heads above water.
Alicia; We’re just gonna have to wait it out. We will get out.
Neither look convinced and Alicia grabs Charlie’s hand. They both look pretty scared.
Charlie: I don’t want to die.
Alicia: I know
Charlie: I don’t want to become one of them. I saw my parents after they turned. I didn’t think it was real. And they came back. Like that.
Alicia: I’m sorry
Charlie: I try to remember what they looked like before, but… I can’t. I just can’t. I wish I had a picture of them. Do you still have the gun?
Alicia shaking her head “ No, No I can’t. I can’t’
Charlie: No Alicia, I just I can’t end up like them. I can’t. I don’t want to end up like them.
Alicia: I can’t
Charlie: Your mom, your brother. They’re all gone…
Alicia: Stop it
Charlie: because of me
Alicia: Stop it
Charlie: I took them away from you.
Alicia: Charlie! No, I’m not doing it.
Charlie: We’re not going to make it.
Alicia: We’re gonna make it out. We’re going to make it out.
Charlie: We’re not and you know that.
Alicia: We are. We’re…
Charlie: We won’t! You know that! So please just do it. Just do it. I… I know that you want to. I can’t end up like them. I just can’t
Alicia thinks for a minute, looks Charlie in the eyes and pulls out the gun. She points it at her head and starts flashing back to her brother dying, her mother and then a flashback of Nick smiling, Madison throwing the flare.
Alicia in tears “ I…I can’t.” Taking the gun away from Charlie’s head “I can’t. I’m sorry. I can’t. I can.. I can’t”
Then a loud crashing sound and something fell on the door. It was the tree walker. They escape the basement and see the house did collapse. Then the tree walker comes towards them and Alicia shoots him.
Next, we see Alicia putting markers on the graves of the dead family. Here comes Charlie.
Charlie: Did you do that for me or you?
Alicia: I did it for the people who could come back.
Charlie has Alicia weapon. “ I found this in the house”
Alicia: You keep it. .. so you’re good at finding things?
Charlie: Yeah
Alicia finds some of the pictures of that dead family and puts them in a jar and places it on their graves.
Charlie: I can see her in you. Even if you can’t. She’s there.
Alicia contemplates her words. “I left Morgan alone in the storm. I walked away from him. I walked away from all of them.”
Charlie: I’m good at finding things.
Looks like Alicia and Charlie are road tripping.
Alicia: Close your eyes
Charlie: Why?
Alicia: I’m going to take you to the beach. I didn’t say it before but it’s one of my favorite places to go. You’re in the car. The windows are down. You can feel the air. it’s soft. It smells like salt. That’s how you know you’re close. Then you hear the waves. And you see the beach. You take off your shoes. put your feet on the sand. You can feel the sand in between your toes as you walk towards the water. And when you go in it’s cold at first. But the longer you stay in the more you don’t want to get out. And you float. And you look back at all the people on the beach. Are you there?
Charlie: I’m in the water. it’s really blue. I’m looking back to the shore and
Alicia: And what?
Charlie: I can see them. My mom and dad. I can.. I can see them again
At Casa Strand no sign of anyone but a wrecked house from the storm. Morgan’s truck is destroyed and at the bus nobody either.
Charlie: We have to find them
Alicia: Charlie
Charlie: No we– We have to find them and help them
Alicia: We don’t know if they’re alive. They’re gone. Charlie… things don’t get better. And they’re not going to. They’re only gonna get worse… til we’re not around to see how bad they can get.
A walker comes around the bus and Alicia takes the weapon from Charlie to kill the walker. Alicia looks at the weapon and turns back to Charlie.
Alicia: Come on
We then see them walking back towards the house
