...tries to get to me,

is gonna have to get through them.

Morgan Jones? I'm not worried about him.

The warheads are separating.

I'm sorry it has to end this way.

I can hear her, Morgan.

Oh, it's alright.

Go.

Go, go!

Didn't she just go to sleep?

Think so.

Let's go.

You're good.

I know, baby.

I know, I know. Shh.

It's alright. You're doing great.

There you go.

Come here. Come here.

You're doing good.

It's alright.

It's alright. I got you.

What's wrong?

It's the same as last time, alright?

She's hungry.

Anyone there?

I said, anyone there?!

Shoo.

Aw, shit.

Oh, God.

You hear that?

What is it?

I don't know.

Over here!

Ohh!

- Ahh! - Oh!

Fred, it's just a damn rat.

Ah, shit. I clipped it.

Come on. Let's go.

Damn it.

I'm right here!

I said I'm right here!

Didn't you hear me?!

You can rob me!

You can take everything from me!

I mean it!!

I don't even want to be here!

I don't want to be here anymore!

Sync corrections by srjanapala

Come on.

You don't want to try some of this?

No? Okay.

- I don't know. - She ain't gonna eat it.

If she's hungry, she will.

She's not ready for solids.

Alright, so it's my turn to go out.

Maybe I'll have better luck.

No. No, I'll go.

Hey, wait. Stop. What?

Stop.

There's a reason why there's a limit.

You were exposed once before all this.

- I know. - And we talked about the

fallout and the weather patterns and...

and the readings you were getting, and you said six hours.

That was you. You said

six hours is the longest

that either one of us could be out there.

You said that, right?

Yeah.

Then it's my turn, Grace.

And I'll be back before the clock hits zero.

You'll be fine.

Maybe sing to her.

That used to soothe Duane.

Oh. Okay.

Okay. Please, just... just for a little bit.

Just for a little bit.

Please, please, just for a little bit!

Please, just for a little bit.

Oh, God.

Okay.

Okay. I know.

I know.

I know.

I know. I know. It's not fair.

You didn't ask to be here, and neither did I.

I know. I know.

I know.

I know what he said.

I know what he said, but I can't.

I can't sing to you.

I'm sorry. I can't.

"Baby Please Forgive Me" playing...

Please listen.

Okay. Shh.

It's alright. It's alright. Okay.

- ♪ No matter how hard I try ♪ - There you go.

There you go. Good girl.

Okay.

"Cabin On The Hill" playing...

It's okay.

Hey.

It's just me.

You were right.

She likes music.

Did you find formula?

No.

But I'll be honest, I didn't really look for it.

I've been working on something else instead.

What?

This is our way out of here.

You serious?

It is safe for all of us.

I made sure of it.

I made this out of a smock

I found in the ship's dental kit.

It'll protect her from the background radiation.

It's alright.

It's okay.

Be good.

And the air... the air inside here

is as clean as it is inside the sub.

We should get in.

We know the number of warheads on that missile...

How they spread out, their yield,

and that the fallout will probably cover

a couple hundred miles in any direction, but with the fuel

I got from the sub's diesels, we can make it out.

- It's too far. It'll take too long. - I can get as far as need

to get in less than six hours,

even if some of the roads

- are busted up. - We don't even know what it's like

- out there. - I have stripped this thing of

- everything we don't need, Grace. - Morgan...

It is light and it is fast.

Why are you doing this?

This is not what you wanted.

I know it, and it's no place for a baby.

So, we should go.

We can build something someplace else that would actually last.

You're doing this for me?

And for Mo.

Hey.

You can even pick the music.

It's a road trip, right?

And it'll keep Mo sleeping.

"I'll Put That Gambling Down" playing...

"Untie The Ribbon" playing...

♪ I'm standing in the glow ♪

♪ Of the bridges I have burned ♪

It's a lot worse than I thought.

The bombs detonated on the ground.

If they didn't burn clean,

there could be a lot

of dangerous stuff out here

that'll stick around for a long time.

It's a good thing we're getting out of here.

The really dangerous stuff... You can't see it.

This won't even pick it up.

It's gonna get a lot worse before it gets better, Morgan.

We're heading in the right direction.

- That's what matters. - That's what I'm trying to tell you.

- You don't know that. - Well, I...

I feel it.

Everything I've been through and everything you've been through.

Ain't we due a break?

♪ It's a game no one can win ♪

We okay?

We're a lot closer to ground zero than I thought.

You certain we're on the right road?

Yeah.

That town up ahead's on the map.

Maybe things are gonna get worse before they get better.

Morgan, we need to talk.

About what?

About what happens when we get...

wherever we get.

What do you mean "what happens"?

There's a playlist of songs I left on this tape.

- What is this? - I hope you listen to them...

No... they'll make you smile.

- Turn it off. - I didn't know

- this was on there. - Morgan, make it stop.

- Okay. I'm trying. - Turn it...

- Stop it right now! Turn it off! - I'm trying.

Morgan, please stop it!

- "In Drea ms" playing... - I don't want to hear that song!

Turn it off!

Morgan!

Ah!

♪ I close my eyes ♪

♪ Then I drift away ♪

♪ Into the magic night ♪

Stop it!

♪ I softly... ♪

Stop it, Morgan!

It's out. It's out.

- It's out. - I don't want to hear it!

I don't want to hear it! Make it stop!

Ah, the wheel's bent.

Can't drive on it.

Can you fix it?

Thought I saw a body shop back there.

How much time do you need?

How much time can we spare?

30 minutes.

We better move.

Hey.

Hey, what the hell are you doing?

Once you fix the car, you take the baby and you go.

- What? - The car will be lighter.

You'll get farther.

The rations will last you longer.

- You don't have to do this. - The clock is ticking.

None of that will make enough of a difference.

I'll get the shop open and you can move the car.

Oh, come on. Put your mask back on, please.

- No, there's no... - Put it on.

- There's no time to argue! - Put it on.

You and the baby need every second you can get.

What we need is you.

That's not true, Morgan.

You've been doing all the heavy lifting

on your own already.

- You'll die. - I know.

And I'm okay with that.

You're okay with it?

I didn't want any of this, Morgan.

I knew what it was gonna be like.

I knew how hard it would be,

how it would all probably end in the same place,

but take longer

and be a hell of a lot more painful.

We heard Mo crying. We had to go to her.

We have to take care of her.

You decided that.

You put the gun down and now you have to live

with that decision, but I don't.

I'm sorry, Morgan,

- but I can't... - Hey.

- I can't... - Just put

- the mask on. Come on. - I can't do this,

and I don't have it in me.

Sorry to interrupt the quarrel.

But we don't really have time for that shit.

Careful, Bea!

Hey, don't.

Rufus.

- Where is she? - Rufus, come back!

If you're smart, you'll do the same.

I hear her.

They've got her. She's here.

Oh, hi. Hi, baby.

Hey, you stay away from her.

Look, if you want this car, you can take it.

It's just that Mo, our little baby, she's inside,

and we just want to take her someplace safe.

Mo?

Her name's Emma.

And she's not your baby.

She's ours.

Mommy's here. Mommy's here.

Did you even feed my baby?

We shouldn't get close.

I think those are Beta burns.

They may have been exposed to worse stuff, too.

Okay.

What's with the bandages?

Are you hurt?

Were you close to the blast?

Just change the tire.

See, I have to protect that child,

and it doesn't matter whose kid you think she is.

Are you hearing the clicking?

Wasn't going that fast 'til you two showed up.

You wanna help?

Fix the damn tire.

Fred, come help me.

- I can get us out of this. - He'll shoot you.

No, I can stop him before.

Shh. Please, please, be quiet.

Shh. I know. I know, I know.

It's okay. It's okay.

Exactly what are they exposing her to?

Depends where they've been.

Right now, I'm more worried about this running out.

She can survive them. She can't survive this.

We fix the car, make sure

that we have everything we need, then we move.

Okay. This won't take long.

I meant what I said before.

I may not want to be here, but I'm not giving up now.

Not like this. Not with them.

Not when I know you and Mo could end up dead, too.

- You mean that? - I do.

But I'm still here.

I'm not with the person I really want to be with.

You mean Athena?

I'm never gonna apologize for giving you

and that baby another day.

Did you really think that we can be some kind of family with Mo?

I can't do that. It won't be the same.

Doesn't mean it won't be something.

Bea, you gotta keep her quiet.

Shh, shh. Shh, shh, shh. Please, be quiet.

Please, please, please.Bea.

I know, Fred, I'm trying. You got to stop her.

- I'm trying. - Hurry up!

I'm going as fast as I can.

- Shut her up! - I'm trying!

You remember what happened last time?

Shoot them!

That'll just draw more.

Grace, get the tape.

Shh. Shh. Shh.

What happened to those walkers?

They're from the crater. Be careful.

They fall apart when you hit 'em,

and you don't want them to fall apart on you.

Shh. Shh. Shh. Shh.

She likes it.

Trust me.

How'd you know?

Door's rotted. It's not gonna hold.

It'll hold, as long as more don't show up.

What's your name?

I helped you, didn't I?

I want what's best for her, too.

I'm Bea.

Alright, Bea. I'm Grace.

And that's Morgan.

My husband... He's called Fred.

Bea, this ain't a potluck in the church basement!

Are you from this town?

Did you live here?

Across the street. In the old honky tonk.

Were there others with you?

People lived in all these buildings.

Ones connected by the strings. It's how we talked.

Wrap it up, Bea.

The dead ain't known for their patience.

We need to leave.

For her.

It's not safe here.

We know.

I wasn't lying when I said we want what's best for her.

We can... We can fit in the car.

We can all leave together.

She's right. We know the way out of here.

We know a safe path we can take.

You know about Padre, too?

- What's Padre? - Be quiet, Bea.

Your daughter could still be out there.

You could still find her.

She may need you, and we can...

We can help because the car's ready to go.

Bea.

Put her things in the car and get in.

Against the wall.

Back up.

You did this, right?

I wouldn't endanger her.

Much obliged.

We'll never forget how you folks helped our family.

But the masks... can we at least get them back

if you're gonna leave us stranded here?

Aah!

Don't!

You damage the car, no one leaves.

They might be able to get her someplace safe.

This isn't about her.

This is about you, because you're scared.

Already lost one child.

Not gonna let that happen again.

I lost a child, too!

Then you know why I have to do this!

Morgan!

Out!

Grace! Don't let Mo out of your sight!

I'm not one of them.

Not yet.

Let's keep it that way.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

How close were you to the blast?

A few miles.

- Is that how you got those burns? - No.

We were in the root cellar when the bombs went off.

We got these...

later.

I know... I know we don't have much time left.

I-I just want to get Emma someplace safe before the end.

I've been in your shoes before.

Still am in some ways.

It's why I'm telling you she is not your child to take.

She's not yours, either.

Not by blood, but I made her father a promise

that I would build a better world for her.

Least I can do is take her someplace

where... that might be possible.

I knew that you were taking her someplace safe.

If the only way that I could get her back

was to keep her from getting to that place,

I'd let you take her.

Yeah, but that's not what happened back there.

Where were you taking her?

We're taking her outside the fallout.

We tried doing what you were doing.

There was a storm after the bomb went off.

Pushed all that stuff in the air clear toward Louisiana.

So, we scrounged up enough gas

that still burned to make the trip.

Least we thought it was enough.

How do you think we ended up like this?

You keep driving that way, you'll end up just like us.

So, where were you trying to take her just now?

I'll show you.

There.

There it is.

What is it?

We know it's safe.

We know it's better than here.

How?

They don't want anyone saying.

- Who doesn't? - People on the radio.

And you're sure this is where it is?

If you don't tell us, how can we help you get there?

We know where it's not.

And there's only one more direction to go looking.

Searching like that, you're gonna get yourself killed.

It's too late for that.

You're gonna get her killed.

I would... never do that to her.

Morgan and I... We have a place.

It's not much,

but it's protected from everything out here.

We had to leave because we didn't have enough food.

For her, for us.

If you come back with us, and bring some of those supplies

you have here, we could buy time.

Does it look like we have time?

She does.

We can't stay here much longer.

We need to get back to the car.

I'll fix the tire. We'll get on the road.

She's gonna draw more.

The batteries.

We need to get to the car now.

How we doing?

We've got to go back to the sub.

It's the only way to make sure she stays safe.

We've used half the gas we had.

It's pretty much now or never.

We just need to know where we're going

and what Padre actually is.

What is Padre?

What you said before,

about me being scared,

you're right.

I am.

But I'm not the only one one.

I'm doing the only thing that we can.

Because you're scared of admitting

what you wanted to build for Mo might not be possible.

Maybe you're right.

But this thing I wanted to build

was just something close to what I once had.

I'm not even talking much.

I'm talking about sitting at a table with the woman

I love, sharing a meal and getting angry at our kid

because he's reading comics instead of talking to us.

And I'm telling you that might not be possible.

I don't know what you want me to do.

Don't listen to these people.

Take her back to the sub.

Shit. Morgan?

Who the hell is that?

Let's not find out.

Morgan. Get Mo inside.

Keep her safe.

You take cover if you're staying.

Get in the back, and keep her quiet.

Who... Who is it?

Stop!

Take another step and I'll shoot.

Please be quiet.

Please. Please. Shh. Please. Please be quiet.

Shh. Please, please, please.

We gotta go back to Emma!

Do you hear something?

The hell really happened to your baby?

Please stop. Please stop. Please stop.

Please stop. Please stop. Please stop crying!

Stop crying.

Please stop.

Please.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

Bea.

Bea.

I'm sorry, but she was already gone.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. She's not gone.

She's inside with Fred.

You know that's not her, and it's okay to admit it,

because that's how you start saying goodbye

and how stop repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

She was sick like us. She was... She was...

She was... not doing well.

She was in pain, and she started crying.

She wouldn't stop.

What are you saying?

Fred didn't want her to suffer.

Grace!

Grace!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Emma.

Grace, can you hear me?

Grace!

Grace, can you hear me?

It'll better this way. I promise.

Grace! Grace, listen!

Morgan?

It'll be better. I promise.

Shh.

"It's Time To Quit Crying" playing...

Doesn't feel right, leaving her behind.

I get it.

But she wants to spend the time

she has left with her husband and child.

I'm sorry, Grace.

You don't have to say it.

No, I almost got her killed.

- You saved her. - Only 'cause I was chasing after

what I needed.

I should've listened to you.

I just wanted to give you and her something more

than what we have.

You didn't fail her.

You didn't fail me.

But you would still rather die than live out here with me.

Not because of what's out here.

Not because of anything you did.

Maybe we're just trying too hard.

Reaching for too much.

We are trying so hard to fix ourselves,

can't even recognize that it might be alright

just to be a little bit broken.

You're not replacing Athena, Grace.

You know that, right?

♪ So, it's time to quit grieving ♪

- I know. - Hmm.

♪ And it's time to quit crying ♪

We don't want any trouble.

Well, that makes two of us.

This is our sub.

Last I checked, the USS Pennsylvania

belonged to the Pacific Fleet.

You been following us?

You the one that came with us on the road?

Look, I said we don't want any trouble.

And that sounds like trouble.

Just thought you'd come and steal from us, is that it?

Morgan.

Morgan Jones?

How do you know that name?

Victor's told us all about you.

Victor? Victor's alive?

Oh, very much so.

And here we thought this, uh, scout was gonna be a bust.

You must be...

Grace.

He's told us all about you, too.

How would you like to secure yourself a place in the Tower?

The Tower?

Sorry, Morgan, you didn't make the cut.

Victor's building a place removed from the fallout.

Safe from the world around it.

An ark that will carry us into the future.

The place is actually safe?

He's doing everything you couldn't.

Food, water, security.

What do you say, Grace?

We could use someone with your expertise.

I know what he did to Morgan.

I'm not interested in what he's offering.

- I don't want it. - You don't have to do that.

- Yes, I do. - You should think about it.

It's what I want.

He's gonna be disappointed.

Let's go.

Hey, wait. Wait.

Look, Morgan, I already told you...

- you're not welcome. - Okay,

but what about the baby?

- Morgan. - What about her?

- She could use a good home. - Morgan, no.

If Victor is building a place for the future,

he's gonna need people to live in it, right?

You'd give her up?

I will do whatever's best for her.

Morgan, no. She's staying with us.

Whatever Strand's building, it's not gonna be what we have.

She's right.

It's gonna be better.

It's your only chance, Grace,

for you and the baby.

Victor's memory is long and sharp.

We're staying.

Suit yourself.

Here we go. Here, here, here.

Oh, they raided the pantry, too?

Nothing left to take.

Wait.

If he didn't run us off the road,

who came after us?

I'm not sure.

But we got more immediate problems.

Mo's gonna be hungry again soon.

Morgan.

Morgan, look at that.

She's crawling.

We're gonna have to baby-proof a whole submarine.

Great job, Mo!

Morgan.

Morgan, look.

Look at that. There's something under here.

What the hell?

Lift.

There's enough to last us for months.

- Powdered milk. - Powdered milk.

We got powdered milk.

Yeah!

I'm sorry, brother.

Mr. Jones may have got the best of me today...

but there's always tomorrow.

You shouldn't be out here without protection.

Is it really as dangerous as you said?

I-I-I-I don't know.

I'm done listening to you, Morgan.

I will come for you, Victor.

Bring it.

June!

Sync corrections by srjanapala

We titled this episode "Six Hours"

because it is the amount of time that Grace has calculated

that she and Morgan can be out

before they are exposed to a dangerous amount of radiation.

It was very important to us, uh, that this episode

really illustrate just how devastated the world has been.

I don't ever want to be here!

This episode really is about Morgan and Grace

and their very different viewpoints on being parents

and, specifically, being parents to baby Mo.

Morgan, as he was at the end of season six,

is nurturing that baby.

He's the one waking up and taking care of it.

And you can see this just haunted look

on Grace's eyes as she's watching the baby cry.

She is not emotionally connected.

It was about creating kind of that sense of tension

and, uh, at the same time, I think,

start to make the audience wonder

if there was something more underneath it,

uh, as we'll later find out.

This episode required our baby Mo

to do a lot of crying.

Come on.

But there was no problem there.

In this episode, the baby is a...

Is a fantastic crier.

It's an Emmy-worthy performance from this baby.

Did you find the formula?

No.

I've been working on something else instead.

We wanted this episode to start off at a place

of this kind of bizarre take on a family road trip

through the nuclear apocalypse.

We started to think about other apocalyptic fiction

that we're fans of, and, you know, of course,

"Mad Max" came to mind, and we thought it would be really cool

to do something that was kind of a-a nod to that.

It's safe for all of us.

This vehicle is kind of hermetically sealed

with duct tape and plastic, um,

and has fuel tanks so they can drive a long range.

And it also means you need a... You need a very particular

kind of car seat.

The initial inspiration Andrew and I had

for Bea and Fred was "Invisible Man."

And based on some research we've done on survivors of,

uh, Hiroshima and other nuclear events,

just seeing, you know, what long-term effects

of radiation burns would look like.

They've got her. She's here. Ohh!

Mommy's here. Mommy's here.

Bea and Fred kidnap baby Mo and are threatening to take her

into what will probably be her certain death.

It does something for Grace. I think it starts

to awaken kind of that maternal instinct.

You're gonna get her killed.

Never.

For Morgan,

seeing Grace take even that first step

makes him realize that, you know, his dream

of having a family again might not be totally gone.

These two people... Morgan and Grace...

are able to find a way forward together with shared purpose,

and, ultimately for Grace, that's about, uh,

connecting with this baby in a way that she never thought she could.

Morgan Jones?

How do you know that name?

I think we can see from the look on Morgan's face

when Howard tells him Victor is alive

that he's not too thrilled.

Both Grace and Morgan know what Strand did

at the end of season six. He tried to kill Morgan.

Whatever Strand's building, it's not gonna be what we have.

She's right. It's gonna be better.

This moment speaks to a larger conflict

that's gonna play out over the course of the season,

which is a bit of a Morgan versus Strand,

where Strand wants to shove it in Morgan's face

how much he beat him

and how he's going to do what Morgan couldn't.

Morgan, look at that.

She's crawling!

And the crawling leads to the discovery of the food.

What the hell?

God!

They'll always remember Mo's first crawl

actually kept them alive.

Powdered milk.

- We got powdered milk! - Yeah!

At the end of the episode, when we see a figure

walk up to the burnt box that says "Morgan Jones"

and we see that figure lift the head up

and we see him take his mask off and we realize it's Emile's face

looking back at walker Emile,

um, and, uh, we realize that he actually had a twin brother.

When we cast Demetrius Grosse in the role of Emile

and we saw his audition and then we saw his dailies come in,

we knew, you know, he was an amazing actor

and he really brought something special to this role.

These are good. What's in 'em?

A chef never reveals his secrets.

Besides, it's my brother's recipe.

We wanted to find a way to bring this character...

or to bring Demetrius back... even if it wasn't as Emile.

Mr. Jones may have got the best of me today.

But there's always tomorrow.

We got the chance to do it, and can't wait

to see what people think of... of that episode.
