Daryl and Carol are out for a walk, and see some Cherokee Rose flowers, and Daryl apologizes for blowing up. He insists that Sophia is still out there, mostly because finding her is his only purpose in life. So sad. Carol gently touches the flower, and hopefully says they'll find her. Yup, so dead.
Hershel, Rick and Jimmy are having a mite of trouble lassoing the zombies and getting them to willingly go to the barn. Turns out this used to be Otis's job. Otis was so useful.
Maggie carries some vegetables and Glennn tries to make amends. He explains that he had to tell everyone about the walkers because they are dangerous creatures. He forgot for a while, and let himself be zombie bait in the well because it was like a real life video game (almost adorable there, Glennn). He remembers when he saved her in the pharmacy -- he can't deal with the only person he cares about being put in the path of danger. He's tired of secrets, because that's what gets people killed. He'd rather she be pissed at him and alive. He looks kind of cute without the hat. Wonder if he'll find a way to wash egg out of it at any point, or if he'll swipe one from a dead body, or if he'll just go sans hat for a while. Anyway, he starts to walk out and Maggie calls him back and kisses him. While I still don't think she can really emote, this is probably the most realistic relationship on the show... now that he's not acting like a 7-year-old.
Shane tracks Dale out into the woods, and Dale cracks that he should have used that skill to find Sophia. He's not wrong, but he's still an ass. He's wrapped all of the guns in a plastic bag, which seems like it will do little to keep them dry in the middle of a swamp where there is presumably a moderate amount of rain. Also, he's putting his whole camp in danger, taking away the weapons in order to stop one person. He really should have consulted someone before making this possibly life-changing decision on his own. What if they had to leave the farm immediately, and he didn't have time to trek into the swamp to get the weapons? What if another herd came through and put people in danger? It's really poor planning on his part. Shane wants the weapons and basically goads Dale into shooting him. He wants Dale to shut up and stop being so preachy. So do I! Shane and I have so much in common, aside from that whole shooting someone in the act of self-preservation thing. Dale holds a gun to Shane's chest and says that this kill or be killed world is where Shane belongs. Dale doesn't really care if he dies quickly at least he was a good human being. Hmm... being alive, or being principled... Shane is clearly the only one here who has the foresight to look at the bigger picture. Anyway, Dale doesn't shoot him and gives him the weapons.
