Summary
He meets the girl on the first, butter yellow day of summer, three months before she dies. The afternoon is melting towards evening when she appears at the sagging fence around his property, white sneakers stained red with dust, her knees knobbly as a child’s. Behind her, the sycamores bristle with readiness for the season, their shade dense and creek-water cool. Panting at her side is the dog. Daryl squints at the pair from inside his workshop, and stands up slowly, his arms wet and cloudy with clay to the elbows, his right leg stiff from crouching.

Summary
They found the prison. They cleared it. That makes it theirs. Doesn't it?
Carol hopes so. Sophia's not so sure. But Daryl will show them. They've found a place. A safe place, finally. What they've been looking for all winter. It's going to work out, this time. Rick's going to settle down, Lori's going to have her baby, and they're all going to be able to build something for themselves. Something good.
Daryl's going to make sure of it.

Summary
Decades after Daryl Dixon was murdered a small fleet of construction equipment shows up on the ridge just over his grave. Bright yellow backhoes and bulldozers rip down the trees, level the earth, and a few weeks later a construction crew is swarming all over this patch of Daryl’s woods. They start in the spring, Daryl finds out the exact date when he spots an open newspaper with March 2, 2010 under the headline. Boyd Guthrie and the rest of the Savage Sons beat Daryl to death behind Willie’s Bar in the early hours of October 14, 1979. Over thirty years ago now.

Summary
Alexandria is the safest place they’ve been since the prison fell, and while that’s all well and good, the lack of constant danger leaves a gaping hole in their lives which can be filled only by the emotional turmoil of their not-always-so-distant pasts. Add a sick Daryl to the mix, and it’s really no wonder Rick starts thinking that safe isn’t necessarily all it’s cracked up to be.
