Where Angels Die
Todd: Do you really think that your people are gonna come and attack? What is wrong with those people?

Lawrence: Scott is a sick son of a bitch. But I respected the man. After the deaths of Hal and Tom, Scott went a little crazy. We had to leave. He has killed his own before, and did so with Gale, but he was never that pissed

Todd: Hmm

''The two stand near each other, waiting to kill whatever would come their way ''

Todd: So… You and Kara. How Long?

Lawrence: Damn near a year. You have anyone?

Todd: I kinda had ma eye on Clio. Hell, most guys here probably had a little something poppin’ out of their pants

Lawrence: ‘Cept Trevor

Todd: Who is that again?

Lawrence: Trevor is young, but completely in love with Annie

Todd: That blond chick. The older one?

Lawrence: Yea

Todd: I can see that. I’m 48, but I could see that

''Lawrence chuckles to himself ''

Todd: I hear you’re getting hitched

Lawrence: Somehow. Ain’t nothing left in this world important but Kara

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Todd: And the weeds

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: What?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Todd: Zombies, biters, whatever the fuck you call them. They look like they’re high as a fucking kite. So I call them weedheads

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: That makes sense

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lisa: So why are we out here?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Paul: Tobias, Clio and Calloway were said to have been running back to tell where the people’s camp was. According to Tobias, it was near our camp

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lisa: What did Clio and Calloway say?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Paul: That’s the thing. Tobias said Calloway was becoming surrounded and ran away, and Clio stayed behind when the people ran after him

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Reagan: And that’s where we come in

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lisa: What do we do?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Paul: We find their camp

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Ryan: Now we watch

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Stephanie: I see no sign of any of those dumb bastards

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Steven: Well keep looking

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Ryan: I can’t believe they took Lawrence hostage. And the Ames family

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Steven: Lawrence is smart he can figure it out

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chhkk “Ryan, do you copy, over?”

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chhkk Ryan: You don’t have to say over, Chad, this ain’t space or police academy

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chhkk Chad: I don’t give a shit

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chhkk Ryan: What did you want?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chhkk Chad: You killed them yet?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chhkk Ryan: No. We haven’t seen them

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chhkk Chad: Well get to it. Over and out

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Ryan: Stephanie, please tell you found them

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Stephanie: Out there. Two people

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Todd: It’s been a while. Do you think they got them yet?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: Tobias is speedy; I hope they caught him

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Todd: Probably fast for crossing the border to sell his drugs

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: He isn’t Mexican. He’s Puerto Rican

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Todd: Oh. It doesn’t matter anyway

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''The pair stares down at their feet, and an awkward silence ensues ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Todd: Do you think we should head back…?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">KPOW

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: Oh Shit! Todd!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Todd lays on the ground, blood pouring from his head as someone tries to snipe Lawrence as he runs away ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Casmir: What’s wrong Lawrence?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: Todd is dead

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Malcolm: What?!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: Someone sniped at us and shot him in the head

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Parker: Fuck

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: Did you catch Tobias and the others?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Malcolm: … Yes

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: Where are they?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Kara: Clio is dead. Shot somebody and this kid killed her

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: What about Tobias and Calloway?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Trevor: Didn’t stop them. Didn’t find them

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaiah: What is it?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: Lawrence returned, but Todd is dead

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Julia: Who’s Todd?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: He was part of their group. The bearded guy

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Snow: Somebody died?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: It’s nothing you need to worry about

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Judas: But dad…

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: No buts

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Snow: I assume Sidney and Yakov know

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Judas: He probably does, but he won’t talk to us

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: He’s been through a lot, god dammit, that doesn’t mean he won’t talk to you. He saw his parents both get eaten alive and some people killed his little sister. You should feel sorry for him

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Julia: Isaac! You’re scaring the kids

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaiah: Go run along and play with the Sidney and Yakov

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Snow: Okay

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaiah: We shouldn’t have left

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: Stop saying that, you saw how he killed Gale. Scott is fucking crazy

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Julia: The kids looked up to Gale, they can’t know he died ‘cause of Scott

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: Well we should tell them. For God’s sakes, Snow is fifteen and Judas is eleven. They have a right to know why we came

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">''Judas quickly comes into the tent, followed by Snow ''

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Judas: Yakov and Sidney were making out. It was gross

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Lawrence: I thought they would come after us. We don’t need any guards right now

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chance: We’ll see them before they see us

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Savannah: Are you sure?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Chance: Of course I’m sure we’ve got snipers pointed in the only way they can come in. I don’t think they’ll get in

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Howard: You thought wrong muthafucker

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Corey: For crying out loud, get the fuck up Chad

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Sophie: Keep focus Corey

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Howard: Please don’t kill me. It wasn’t my fucking idea. Scott told me to do it. I had no intention of

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Savannah: What?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Malcolm: Look. I’m sorry about Chance. He was a great man. You guys really helped me out in West Virginia. I was glad to be his friend

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Savannah: You never knew him that well. You never knew what he was truly like. You never knew how much he cared, not just for me; but for everyone else. And he died because he was watching for all of our safety. He just couldn’t finish his work. He couldn’t wait

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Malcolm: Wait for what?

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Savannah: Yesterday, he… he proposed to me in our tent, found a ring on Hal’s finger when they attacked and took it. He gave it to me last night. We were gonna tell everyone earlier today, and we would hope to get married before we died

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:200%">Isaac: I’m going to miss her
