Deaths of Ben and Billy

First Appearance of Fr. Gabriel Stokes, Greg and Charlie.

On the road, Andrea discovers a van, which still has the keys in it. When she opens the doors of van, she finds mattresses. Rick thinks it could work, and Andrea is interested in it. She says it's like Christmas had come early this year. Carl asks if they skipped last Christmas. Dale and Abraham get the van working and they contend with who's going to sleep in the van.
At night, Rick is on watch duty. He remembers his phone, which he has been carrying around. He picks up the receiver slowly, and hears Lori's voice. Lori "says" that they should talk about Carl. Rick quickly puts phone back in its place and stares into the night.

In the morning, everyone is packing up the truck. Andrea wonders where Ben and Billy are, Dale says they are in the woods, taking a leak. Andrea goes after them, only to see that Ben has murdered Billy with a knife. Ben says he didn't hurt his brain, and tries to hug a shocked Andrea. Dale shows up and starts to cry, when realizes what has happened. Rick comes to see what's wrong, and is surprised. He tells Carl, who had followed him, to go back to camp and tell that they're not driving anywhere today and they should put the camp up again. Carl starts to run back to camp.

After Billy's grave had been erected, group is discussing about what they're going to do with Ben. When Andrea says that he didn't even know why did she put him in the back of the van, Abraham thinks that it makes him more dangerous. Dale says he's just a boy, and Michonne emphasises that he is a boy who doesn't understand murder. Abraham asks if this would have happened in the time when there were not zombies, he would have been placed in therapy for at least twenty years, and he maybe wouldn't be cured. Rick asks what Abraham is suggesting, and he says "what needs to be done".

Andrea starts to scream that they want to kill a little boy. Abraham becomes silent and Maggie takes Sophia with her to somewhere else. Glenn wants to come with, but Maggie commands him to talk some sense into everyone. Dale asks if Abraham is serious, and he is. Andrea isn't going to listen to another word of the conversation and leaves. Dale goes after her and tells everyone to be ashamed of themselves. Glenn asks are they really considering killing a child, and Rick agrees. He says that Ben's age doesn't really matter, and they don't know when he's going to snap again. Morgan asks are they any of their group who would be able to do that. Suddenly, a priest shows up and asks if they could spare a moment to talk about The Lord.

Michonne asks if this man is real, and Abraham tells him to put his hands on the air and say who he is. The Preacher, identified as Fr. Gabriel Stokes, sayd he's a traveller who has ran out of food, and he has no kind of weapons. Abraham checks him and they believe him. Gabriel tells them he's been hiding in his church for a long time, and couple days ago he ran out of food. He says they couldtravel to his church, Rick says they might do that later, and tells somebody show him where the food is.

At night, Dale is talking to Andrea about roamers, which they haven't seen all day. Andrea suddenly changes the topic to Ben, what they're going to do with him. Dale says he's going to keep watch on the van. He isn't going to let anyone kill him, and Andrea asks if they should sleep in th van. Dale doesn't know should they. Meanwhile, Carl sneaks out of his tent. He runs to the van, opens it, and sees Ben. He asks if Carl is scared of him, and Carl disagrees. Suddenly, Rick wakes up to shot.

Rick tells Carl to stay in his tent, while everyone is assembling in front of van, only to find Ben's body. Dale yells that he wants to see this coward who killed his son. Dale collapses and Andrea comforts him. Dale is still angry about loss of his son. Morgan sees Carl running to his tent. Glenn says he didn't see anybody going anywhere. Rick reveals that they may never know who killed Ben.

After pitching another cross, this time next to Billy's grave, the group decides to leave. Dale suspects Carl of the murder, and Rick promises that he was sleeping right next to him. Morgan gives a mysterious look to Carl. Gabriel suggests that he should say a few words to Dale before they leave. Rick says he should let him go, and asks if he even knows whats going on. Gabriel does and he gives a speech saying the boys have left to the kindom of heaven, and Rick tells him that he might keep his theories to himself.

Abraham asks Eugene if his radiophone works, but it doesn't. Abraham yells that they should leave now. When they leave, two humans in the woods are talking about that what they should do with them. The other one says that they're going to follow them.
