The group's spirit is at an all-time low, as they grieve their [[Recap/TheWalkingDeadS05E08Coda recent]] [[Recap/TheWalkingDeadS05E09WhatHappenedAndWhatsGoingOn losses]]. Worse still, they are out of food, water, and fuel, and now forced to walk on foot, they are now fatigued, dehydrated, and more downtrodden than ever. In this drought, Sasha fails to find water, Daryl only finds a worm to eat, and Maggie is near catatonic. Carl gives Maggie a broken music box as a tribute to Beth, and Gabriel tries to console Maggie. The preacher is harshly rejected by Maggie, citing his letting his congregation die to save himself.

Daryl breaks off from the group to try to hunt, and comes across an abandoned barn. He starts smoking a cigarette, crying both over Beth's death and his inability to feel anything. When he returns to the group, he finds them spooked, as they've found a bunch of water bottles with a note saying they're "from a friend". After all they've been through, the group refuses to drink the water, presuming it to be a trap, and move on. Miraculously, it begins raining, to the group's joy, and Gabriel apologizes to God for doubting Him.

Glenn asks Maggie to talk to him, and finally, Maggie opens up to her husband about her trauma: after Hershel died, it broke her so badly that she believed Beth was dead as well. Learning she was alive and then that she wasn't in the same day hurt her, and she admits that she used to think they were living in "the bad part", but now isn't sure if she wants to go on. Glenn assures her that she does, and finally gets her to take a drink.

In the forest, Maggie stares off blankly into the distance. A walker approaches her, but gets caught in the tree branches. She slowly turns around and dispatches it before staring out again.
Elsewhere, most of the group has become jaded and disaffected with their limited supplies and [[Recap/TheWalkingDeadS05E09WhatHappenedAndWhatsGoingOn recent losses]]. Daryl digs up a worm before eating it, while Sasha tries and fails to find a viable source of clean water for the others.
At the same time, the group's vehicles run out of fuel, and they are forced to walk on foot. As they march along the road, a group of walkers begins to trail far behind them. Carl gives Maggie a music box to keep her spirits up and remind her of Beth, while Gabriel attempts to console her and is harshly rebuffed.
The group continues walking, and the pack of walkers grows in numbers. Sasha attempts to rally the group to take them on, but Michonne tells her not to act impulsively like Tyreese did [[Recap/TheWalkingDeads04E03Isolation after Karen's death]]. Sasha goes silent again.
When they reach a bridge, the fatigued group uses the steep foothills on either side to lure the walkers in and drop them down so they're no longer a threat. However, as they knock the walkers over the side, Sasha breaks with the plan and begins expending energy using her knife to take them on. Rick and the others are forced to help, and one nearly bites him before Daryl and Carol return from a nearby scouting trip and save him.
They continue on and split off again to find supplies when they come upon a handful of abandoned cars. Maggie discovers a bound female walker in the trunk and asks Glenn to kill it for her, while Daryl finds a mauled deer but leaves it in fear that it was consumed by a walker.
When they all meet up again, Abraham [[DrowningMySorrows begins drinking]] to dull his pain. Rosita responds that it won't make things easier and the situation [[TemptingFate can't get any worse]]. Suddenly, a group of wild dogs appear from the forest and begin to bark and threaten the group. They are suddenly shot down by Sasha. Although Rick is bothered by the waste of ammunition, he sets up a fire so they can cook the animals.
As everyone eats, Noah refuses and thinks about Tyreese's attempts to help him come to terms with the world. Sasha coldly tells him that he won't survive, and walks out. At the same time, a bothered Gabriel rips off his cleric's collar and tosses it into the fire while Maggie looks on in shock.
The group resumes their trek, and Glenn tries to keep everyone's spirits up. Daryl breaks off from the group for a moment and goes to sit under a tree. He sees a cabin in the distance and smokes a cigarette before breaking down over Beth's death.
After he returns, the group finds a cache of water bottles on the road, along with a note that says it's from a "friend". Understandably weary, they assume it's a trap and keep walking. Soon after, it begins to rain and the group drinks the falling water with happiness. Joy turns to worry when they realize the rain is a prelude to a bad thunderstorm, and Daryl leads them to the cabin he found.
They make it inside just as the storm starts and settle in for the night. In an attempt to rationalize their situation, Rick tells them a story about his grandfather, who fought in UsefulNotes/WorldWarII and went into combat believing he would die for several years before returning home. Rick rationalizes that the group ''is'' the "[[TitleDrop walking dead]]", as they have to get themselves into that mentality in order to keep fighting.
When the group goes to get some sleep, Daryl peeks outside the barn door and sees a horde of walkers. When they attempt to get in, he braces the door by himself. Seeing this, everyone goes to the door and pushes back against the horde to keep them from entering, while the storm grows louder...
Maggie wakes up the next morning, and Daryl gives her Beth's knife as a gift. He also tells her that he fixed the music box Carl gave her, and they both go outside. They see a startling sight - the storm has destroyed most of the walkers, with the ones left caught under fallen logs.

The horde of Walkers that has them under siege is wiped out by a thunderstorm -- while leaving the barn the group is in untouched. In the former case, Father Gabriel explicitly apologizes to God for doubting, in the latter case, Sasha and Maggie note they should have been crushed by the storm. Then, right after Aaron arrives, the music box that hadn't worked a few moments ago spontaneously starts up. It's left to the viewer to decide whether this is all happy coincidence, or something else.

* TheAloner: Daryl is slipping back into this, much like after Sophia's death and the fall of the prison.
* BeingWatched: The group has been watched by Aaron for clearly some time, as he knows Rick's name and leaves them a bunch of water.
* BrokenBird: Maggie after losing her father and Beth, and Sasha from losing Bob and Tyreese.
* BrutalHonesty: Abraham flatly tells Sasha that her recklessness will only cause more and more problems.
* CombatPragmatist: Low on energy from starvation and thirst, the group elects to simply lure a herd of walkers close to a bridge, then trick them over the ledge.
* ContinuityNod: Maggie mentions the loss of her father.
** Maggie and Sasha's hostile reaction to the well-dressed, friendly Aaron likely has just a little bit to do with the memory Terminus and the last time they were welcomed by such a man.
* DeathGlare: Sasha gives one to Noah, likely blaming him for her brother's death. Abraham also has a steely one for Eugene when he tries to test the mysterious cache of water left for them.
* DrowningMySorrows: Abraham drinks from the bottle of booze to satisfy his thirst, but it's plainly clear he's using it for comfort as well.
* ManlyTears: Daryl when smoking by a barn.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: In most other situations, a torrential downpour would be a bad thing. Here, it gives the group some much needed water and refreshment.
* ProperlyParanoid: The group's reaction to a load of water being delivered "from a friend" and then to Aaron appearing out of nowhere is wholly justified given what they've gone through with Terminus, among other people.
* RuleOfSymbolism: The music box begins to play just as Aaron arrives and promises good news.
* SecondEpisodeIntroduction: Like Abraham, Eugene and Rosita a year prior, Aaron makes his debut in the second episode of the second half of the season.
* ShootTheDog: Sasha literally does this to a pack of wild dogs that were menacing the group, but it does give them their first solid meal in who knows how long.
* TitleDrop: Rick finally says it.
