Daryl: ...I could do that.

Rick looks at T-Dog.

T-Dog: ...Only if we get those guns first. I'm not strollin' the streets of Atlanta with just my hood intentions, okay?

[Camp]

The group makes it up the hill to find Jim digging. They all stop walking. Jim is jamming the shovel into the dirt.

Shane: ...Hey, Jim.

He doesn't respond.

Shane: ...Jim, why don't you hold up, alright? Just give me a second here, please.

Jim stops digging and he sticks the shovel into the dirt. He looks at Shane.

Jim: What do you want?

Shane: We're all just a little concerned, man, that's all.

Louis: Dale says you've been out here for hours.

Jim looks at Dale.

Jim: So?

Shane: So why are you diggin'?

Jim doesn't respond.

Shane: ...What, you headin' to China, Jim? He says with a chuckle.

Jim smiles.

Jim: What does it matter? I'm not hurtin' anyone.

He stops smiling and continues to dig.

Dale: Yeah, except maybe YOURSELF; it's--it's a-hundred-DEGREES today! You can't keep this up.

Jim: Sure I can! Watch me! He says, aggressively digging into the dirt.

Lori walks up.

Lori: Jim, they're not gonna say it, so I will. You're scarin' people.

Jim stands up straight and stops digging.

Lori: You're scarin' my son. And Carol's daughter.

Jim: They got nothin' to be scared of... I mean, what the hell, people? I'm out her by myself--why don't you all just go and leave me the hell alone?

He continues to dig.

Shane: ...We think that you need to take a break, okay?

He walks up.

Shane: Why don't you go and get yourself in the shade? Some food maybe. I'll tell you what, maybe in a little bit, I...I'll help you myself. Jim. Just tell me what it's about. Why don't you just go ahead and give me that shovel?

Jim sticks the shovel in the ground.

Jim: Or what?

Shane: There is no or what. I'm ASKIN' you. I'm comin' to you and I'm askin' you, please. I don't wanna have to take it from ya.

Jim: If I don't, then what? Then you're gonna bear my face in like Ed Peletier, aren't you?

Shane looks down.

Jim: Y'all seen his face, huh?! What's LEFT of it!

Jim looks at Shane.

Jim: See, now, that's what happens when someone crosses you.

Shane: ...That was different, Jim. He says as Jim continues to dig.

Amy: You weren't there. Ed was out of control; he was hurting his wife.

Jim stops again.

Jim: That is THEIR marriage, that is not his! He is not judge and jury. Who voted you king BOSS, huh?
