Rory: Wait, are you breaking up with Hannah?
David: What? No. You wish.
Rory: Uh...I've had my fair share, thank you.
Finally, David brings Rory to a cliff and point out ahead of him.
David: Right there.
Rory walks up next to David to see the large settlement of Berrington across from them and under the large mountains ahead.
Rory: Holy shit. It's a whole fucking town. We made it!
David watches her as Rory starts to shake a bit and her breathing becomes shallow.
David: Rory?
Rory looks up at David.
Rory: I-I'm fine. Have you told anyone else?
David shakes his head no.
David: Saw an armed patrol of five go from town to an outpost, over there.
David points off to his left and Rory looks to where he is, which is an old ski lodge.
David: Few more outpost in between. They have electricity, guns...and a lot of people.
He gives a worried look towards Rory.
Rory: We'll figure it out.
David: Okay. Assuming they're in there, how do we get to them?
Rory: We can corner one of the patrols and get confirmation, then I dunno, we use the patrol as bait to lure them out.
David: Yeah. I'm sure they'll gladly sell them out.
Rory: Well, then we torture them til we do.
David laughs.
David: (disbelief) Do you hear yourself right now?
Rory: Okay, what do you want to do?
David scoffs.
David: We shouldn't hurt innocent people just to get what we want.
Stephan: "Innocent"?
Startled, Rory and David turn to be approached by an African-American man in his early 50's, bearing a black and grey beard.
David: Stephan....sir.
Stephan: David. Rory....what do you mean by innocent? These people were the same people that killed Wes and his people.
David: With all due respect, Stephan...Wes and Tobin deserted us.
Stephan: My point being is that these people are stopping us from achieving our goal....we've come far...and we can finish this.
David: Stephan....
David sighs.
David: Goddammit....
Rory: What do you want do? What the hell is going on with you?
David folds his lips.
Stephan: You didn't tell her, did you?
Rory: Tell me what?
Stephan: Have you noticed Hannah's stomach?
David looks out towards the city before he turns back to Rory.
David: Hannah's pregnant. Six weeks.....and yes, it's mine.
Rory, disbelieved and jealous, turns her lips.
Rory: Oh....wow...
David: Look, it's not just that.
Rory: Should I bake you a cake, then? Which frosting would you prefer? Blue or pink?
