Quotes
-
Rick Grimes : You're a man of God. Have some faith.
Hershel Greene : I can't profess to understand God's plan. Christ promised the resurrection of the dead. I just thought he had something a little different in mind.
-
Carol Peletier : [to Daryl, as they all sit around a campfire with T-Dog keeping watch and Rick patrolling the area] We're not safe with him. Keeping something like that from us. Why do you need him? He's just gonna pull you down.
Daryl Dixon : Nah. Rick's done all right by me.
Carol Peletier : You're his henchman... and I'm a burden. We deserve better.
Daryl Dixon : What do you want?
Carol Peletier : A man of honor.
Daryl Dixon : Rick has honor.
Maggie Greene : [to Glenn after hearing Carol] I think we should take our chances.
Hershel Greene : Don't be foolish. There's no food, no fuel, no ammo.
Beth Greene : [Hearing a sound nearby] What was that?
Daryl Dixon : [as they all stand up] Could be anything. A raccoon, a possum...
Glenn Rhee : ...A walker.
Carol Peletier : We need to leave. I mean, what are we waiting for?
Theodore 'T-Dog' Douglas : Which way?
Maggie Greene : It came from over there.
Beth Greene : Back from where we came.
Maggie Greene : Yeah.
Rick Grimes : The last thing we need is for everyone to go running off in the dark. We don't have the vehicles. No one's traveling on foot.
Hershel Greene : Don't panic.
Maggie Greene : I'm not. I'm not sitting here waiting for another herd to blow through. We need to move now.
Rick Grimes : No one's going anywhere.
[Everyone begins to stare at Rick, silently questioning him]
Carol Peletier : Do something.
Rick Grimes : I AM DOING SOMETHING! I'm keeping this group together, ALIVE! I've been doing that all along, no matter what! I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS! I KILLED MY BEST FRIEND FOR YOU PEOPLE, FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!
[They all stare at him in disbelief and shock]
Rick Grimes : You saw what he was like... how he pushed me... how he compromised us... how he threatened us. He staged the whole Randall thing, led me out to put a bullet in my back. He gave me no CHOICE! He was my friend, but he came after me.
[Carl hugs Lori and begins crying into her shoulder]
Rick Grimes : My hands are clean.
[They still stand there in shock and disbelief]
Rick Grimes : Maybe you people are better off without me. Go ahead... I say there's a place for us, but maybe, maybe it's just another pipe dream. May... Maybe I'm fooling myself again. What? Why don't... Why don't you go on and find out yourself! Send me a postcard!
[Nobody does or says anything]
Rick Grimes : Go on, there's the door. Think you can do better? Let's see how far you get.
[They continue to remain silent]
Rick Grimes : No takers? Fine. We get one thing straight: You're staying. This isn't a democracy anymore.
[He walks off to continue patrolling the area, as everyone stands there, still in silence as the camera pans over the trees and focuses on the prison off in the distance]

Rick Grimes : [Cocks gun] We're not leaving.
Hershel Greene : We can't stay here.
Maggie Greene : What if there's another snaprel? Wood pallet won't stop another one of those rounds.
Beth Greene : We can't even go outside.
Carol Peletier : Within the daylight.
Glenn Rhee : If Rick says we're not running, we're not running!
Merle Dixon : [Locked behind a cell] No? Better to live like rats.
Rick Grimes : You got a better idea?
Merle Dixon : Yeah, we should've slid outta here last night, live to fight another day. But we lost that window, didn't we? Now, I'm sure he's got scouts on every road out of this place by now.
Daryl Dixon : We ain't scared of that prick.
Merle Dixon : Y'all should be. That truck-through-the-fence thing? That's just him ringing the doorbell. We might have some thick walls to hide behind, but he's got the guns and the numbers. And if he takes the high ground around this place, shoot, he could just starve us out if he wanted to.
Maggie Greene : Let's put him in the other cell block!
Daryl Dixon : No. He's gotta point.
Maggie Greene : [to Merle] THIS IS ALL YOU! YOU STARTED THIS!
Beth Greene : What's the difference whose fault it is? What do we do?
Hershel Greene : I said we should leave. Now, Axel's dead. We can't just sit here.
[Rick turns to leave the cell block, walking out on the conversation]
Hershel Greene : GET BACK HERE!
[Rick stops in his tracks, as Hershel, on his crutches, walks over to Rick]
Hershel Greene : You're slipping, Rick. We've all seen it, we understand why. But now is not the time! You once said this isn't a democracy. Now you have to own up to that. I put my family's life in your hands. So, get your head clear and do something.
Rick Grimes : [Opening the door to a loading dock and looks out; Carl then comes out] You shouldn't be out here.
Carl Grimes : I'm a good shot.
Rick Grimes : Yes, you are.
Carl Grimes : Hey, Dad?
Rick Grimes : Yeah?
Carl Grimes : If I say something, will you promise not to be mad?
Rick Grimes : I won't get mad.
Carl Grimes : You should stop.
Rick Grimes : Stop what?
Carl Grimes : Being the leader.
[Rick turns to look at him]
Carl Grimes : Have Hershel and Daryl handle things. You deserve a rest.
[He continues to look at Carl, as Carl walks away]

Rick Grimes : [Hugging Lori] What happened to you?
Lori Grimes : I was in a car accident.
Rick Grimes : Accident? How?
Lori Grimes : I went looking for you.
Shane Walsh : Snuck out on her own. I brought her back.
Rick Grimes : Are you crazy? You could-...
Theodore 'T-Dog' Douglas : Who the Hell is that?
[Seeing Randall in the backseat of the car, tied up and blindfolded]
Glenn Rhee : That's Randall.
Rick Grimes : [Back inside the house] We couldn't just leave him behind. He would've bled out... if he lived that long.
Glenn Rhee : It's gotten bad in town.
Andrea Harrison : What do we do with him?
Hershel Greene : I repaired his calf muscle as best I can, but he'll probably have nerve damage. He won't be on his feet for, at least, a week.
Rick Grimes : When he is, we give him a canteen, take him out to the main roads, send him on his way.
Andrea Harrison : Isn't that the same as leaving him for the walkers?
Rick Grimes : He'll have a fighting chance.
Shane Walsh : Just gonna let him go? He knows where we are.
Rick Grimes : He was blindfolded the whole way here. He's not a threat.
Shane Walsh : Not a threat. How many more of them were there? You killed 3 of there men, you took one of them hostage, but they just ain't gonna come looking for him.
Rick Grimes : They left him for dead! No one is looking!
Theodore 'T-Dog' Douglas : We should still post a guard.
Hershel Greene : He's out cold right now. Will be for hours.
Shane Walsh : [Sarcastically] You know, I'm gonna get him some flowers and candy.
[He starts to walk away]
Shane Walsh : Look at this folks, we're back in Fantasy Land!
[Continues walking away]
Hershel Greene : You know, we haven't even dealt with what you did at my barn, yet! Let me make this perfectly clear once and for all. This is my farm and I wanted you gone. Rick talked me out of it, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. So, do us both a favor: Keep your mouth shut!
[Shane walks away, storms out the front door]
Rick Grimes : [to Hershel] Look, we're not gonna do anything about today. Let's just cool off.
