So now that they're all caught up, Andrea asks Merle what he wants, and Merle says to Michonne, "There she sits, four walls around her, roof over her head, medicine in her veins, she wants to know what I want from her." Basically, he wants a thank you. Michonne says he had a gun on them, and Merle chuckles, "Well, who ain't had a gun on them in the past year? I'd think I'd piss my pants if some stranger came walking up with his mitts in his pockets." Or waving a white flag, as the case may be. Andrea interrupts his rant with a thank you, and he takes it and crosses the room. The leader of the rescue party enters from a door near him and murmurs in Merle's ear for a moment, then asks the ladies how they're feeling. They're not open to his friendly attitude, though, wanting their weapons back and wondering why they're under guard. The tall man says he doesn't know them and needs to protect his people, and Andrea asks what the hell the deal was with stabbing dead men in the head. Right, Andrea doesn't have that memo, and neither does Michonne, apparently. "However we die, we all turn," the man tells them. "I put them out of their misery." As for Andrea and Michonne, he says they're guests, not prisoners, but if they want to leave they'll need to wait until morning, since they don't open the gate after dusk. He suggests Andrea get a good night sleep, anyway, still looking like death warmed over the way she still does, and then invites them over to his place the next day on their way out to pick up extra ammo, supplies, and even a car if they want. He seems so nice for somebody who gives you the screaming heebie-jeebies.
