(Present) Maria is moved to a separate room to Sean, Talia and Ruby, Greg enters the room and begins to question her, he asks where she has been, how she joined Alberto, if she had any family still alive, that question angers her, she spits in his face and says “screw you”, Greg explains “that will happen later, but first I need to know everything there is to know about the people in your group”, Thomas is getting his arm patched up by Michelle, “just like the day we met” he says, “look I may charge an arm and leg but you are taking it way to literal” she says.
(Flashback) Thomas has just been shot in the leg by Alec, Anthony and Lee head off to get the medical team, Thomas begins hallucinating and passes out, when he wakes up, he finds Michelle sewing his wound, “who are you” Thomas asks, “just a woman that was passing by, your lucky your friends were able to find me, this would have got bad real fast if I didn't start when I did, I'm Michelle” she says “and don't worry, everything is gonna be ok”
(Present) Melissa, Kimmy and Julie return, they are worried when they see Alec and Steven are not back yet, they tell Alberto what happened and that they took Maria, Alberto tells Oscar to get Mark and Katy and for Stacy to get Jill and Mini, he invites them into his house, “the hostiles have taken Maria, killed Eli and Alec and Steven are yet to be found, and as I continue to find it hard to let you guys in the painful truth is, I need you guys, and that the survival of everybody here is are good people depends on you guys” he tells them to follow him as he heads down into his basement he unlocks the doors and tells the group “this is all we will need” the door opens and they see that it has been filled with guns and ammo, “this is not all, I have something else I would like to show you guys, meet me out front” they all begin to leave “except you Jill, I need to talk to you” he tells her. Maria is still refusing to give up the information about her group, she doesn't want to put them in danger, they are her new family, and she doesn't wanna see them die as well, she thinks back to what Christian had said to her, her envy to make decisions will get her killed, if she had stayed back like Jill had said she wouldn't be here. Greg isn't getting anything out of her and calls Thomas in, Maria immediately recognises him and begins to try and fight her way out of the chair she is tied to, “I WILL KILL YOU” she screams, Thomas pulls out a knife, and Maria says “do what you want, you already killed one of my families, I'm not gonna let you hurt another, you want to kill me, THEN KILL ME” Thomas tells her “I'm not gonna kill you, but you are gonna wish I had”
(Flashback) Thomas and Michelle have been seeing each other for a little under two months, they still have their extraction orders, he looks at the photo of the person they are after, Michelle enters the tent and says Anthony and Lee have found somebody, a man is dragged into their camp to be held for questioning, it's Greg.
(Present) Alberto tells Jill “if you are going to stay, if you people are gonna live amongst mine then we need to be honest with each other” Jill agrees “we will be and we will help you win this war” Alberto explains “it's not a war, not yet” Jill goes to leave and Alberto asks one more thing “how much do you know about Annie?” Jill questions why he is asking “I can't help but shake this feeling that somewhere, somehow I know her” Jill tells him “she just a young scared girl, and I saved her”. Alec and Steven are walking along a road, they are heading back to the Safe Haven when Alec stops, Steven asks him what he is doing and Alec says “I can't go back, I've done some things and it's about time I faced them” Steven questions what he is talking about but Alec turns around and walks away, Steven considers following him but he needs to get back and see if everybody else made it back in alive, Doug is worried about Maria, with Zakhai still missing Maria is the last person from his little group who is alive, Cassie comes to see him and wants to hook up again but he tells her he is not in the mood, over at the Base, Greg asks Taylor to join him in his tent for dinner, Zakhai isn't on board with the idea but Taylor wants to do it, “he is a good person, and he knows what I have been through, it'll just be talk, I promise” Jill and Alberto meet the others at the gate, Alberto tells them to follow him, Thomas continues to question Maria, but she isn't talking, he he punching her in the face every time she refuses, he then pulls out his knife, and tells her “I'm not a cruel man, so I'll be honest, this is gonna hurt” he starts inserting the knife under her fingernails, Maria tries to scream but nothing comes out, she passes out.
(Flashback) Thomas is doing the same thing to Greg, and is failing to get anything out of him, as Thomas is about to leave Greg tells him “tonight, everything will change” Thomas is unsure as to what he means and is considering killing Greg just as a precaution, he climbs into bed with Michelle and talks to her about his concerns, she tells him “it fine, I love you, and after tonight, everything will change” Thomas asks her what she is talking about, soon the sound of gunfire makes him rush from his room, he runs outside to see his own army men killing each other, he pulls out his gun but doesn't know who to shoot, who is good and who is bad, soon the gun fire stops and Greg emerges from the cells, Greg explains that “thank you everybody for what you have done, we can now live here in peace, the weak were weeded out and the strong have prevailed” he approaches Thomas “and what about you, are you one of the weak, or are you strong?” everybody is watching him waiting to answer, including Michelle who is on board with Greg, “I'm one of the strong” Thomas says, he is scared, not scared of what just happened but scared of how quickly Greg was able to manipulate his people.
(Present) Alberto goes to an old run down barn, “back at the Safe Haven I have a room locked up in basement, you saw that it was full of guns, but that's not all we have, when I met Eli we managed to escape from a large herd in this, and now that he is dead I realised how stupid it was to keep this a secret, it can only fit two people so if what is about to come does turn bad then this can be a way out for anybody who wants it” Alberto opens the barn door to reveal a two seater small plane, “now I know a lot of you probably don't have flight experience but we have enough fuel here for me to teach a few of you” Jill thanks him for telling them this, she now trusts him a lot more, the group head back to the Safe Haven, Jill decides to try and get to know Alberto better and asks about his life before, “well I grew up in Mexico, I had always dreamed of moving to America, and after a few trips up I decide it was time to move, I had a little trouble getting my citizenship but after studying every tiny detail about this place I finally managed to get it about 6 months ago” he tells her “just in time for the election” she says. Alberto remembers voting and seeing the panel at the airport where The President was giving a speech, the speech made Alberto decide to vote for him, but the thing he remembers seeing was Annie sitting on a chair in the background. Thomas leaves the cells and goes to see Greg who asks Taylor to be excused for a minute, Thomas tells him that Maria is a part of Taylor and Zakhai's group, and that they have Annie, Greg pulls out his radio and says “I know the signals are down but we have done it, we found the President's daughter”.
Next Episode: This Means War
we find out more about Greg and Alberto's leadership and the Safe Haven try to get Maria back.
What do you think Alberto will do now that he knows he has the person the Base wants? How will Jill react to finding out the person she has been protecting has kept this big secret from her? Where did Alec go and will he come back? And do you think Thomas decided to stay with Greg just for Michelle or because he is as bad as the others?
I honestly think he'll protect Annie, if he hates the other group as much as he seems to then he'll keep her safe just to spite them, atleast I hope thats all lol. I think Jill will be pissed but forgive her since everyone has her secrets, and it honestly wouldn't surprise me if somehow Jill already knew. Alec probably went back to where he shot Thomas, and he'll be back when the fighting starts. I think Thomas would easily throw Michelle under the bus to save himself but who know's maybe he has changed a little.
