Man, that's... that's enough.
Yeah, man. No problem, man.
Did great in there, buddy.
You were very brave.
H-Hey!
Don't worry, li'l dude. You're home, see?
Safe and sound.
Apples?
Come on. Let's go take a look.
Thank you.
I'll take a witch hat.
- Good choice. - Thank you.
Hey! You're one of the new people, right?
I heard you all lived out in the wasteland,
killing rotters?
- Yeah, I guess. - Cool.
So, there's probably nothing you're afraid of, huh?
Come on, I'll show you where all the good candy's at.
And I'm Mei.
Jude.
Cool name.
So, uh, what do you think?
It takes a minute to get used to all this, you know?
You know, this place was up and running
long before we ever got here.
Maybe we don't have to do anything to make it work.
No, there's always something you got to do to make it work.
Want another one?
Oh, hello! Happy Halloween!
And here's one for you...
and one for you.
They're delicious, aren't they? You like 'em?
And first place goes to...
dressed as our very own Mercer...
Celeste!
And this year's grand prize is...
10 lottery tickets!
Let's take some pictures.
Thank you all for coming out today.
You all look fantastic,
and I'm so happy you're out here for Halloween.
I always thought she was so classy.
I never knew anything about her.
Mm, I used to read a lot of tabloids.
Hey! You two look busy.
Connie's reporting for the paper.
We've got a full day.
How's work?
"It's nice to be reporting again,
but Commonwealth news isn't exactly...
...hard-hitting."
Have you, uh, met Pamela yet?
"I interviewed her once, before the world fell."
Yeah, and you also got her uncle kicked out of Congress, so...
That was you?
"We gotta go.
We have a lot to do before the masquerade ball."
See you later.
You should ask her to dance.
I gotta get to work.
Hey. Catch up later?
Yeah. See ya later.
Thanks for watching Coco.
I'll come by tonight to pick her up.
You know, why don't I just keep her overnight?
You're sure to be exhausted after the late shift.
You sure?
Yeah, of course.
Okay, well, thank you.
I'll, uh... I'll get her before your Bible study.
Okay.
Shh, shh, shh.
Aww! Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
Thank you. Bye.
- Hi. - Hey.
- How's the place? Getting any better? - Hell, no.
No, I think this place is literally made out of paper.
You sleeping?
Nah. No, no.
Can't wait 'til basic's over and we get new apartments.
Worrying about money again is so weird.
It's not forever.
Ready, set, go!
Tide's turning and Ezra's back in the game!
Just when we thought it was over.
There is no telling how this ends!
Ezekiel, come play!
Nothing I'd love more,
but I gotta take care of these little guys.
- Us too. - Okay.
Okay, okay, let's thank Ezekiel
for letting us use Shiva's collar, huh?
It was the cherry on top of that sweet costume, right?
Sorry, bud. We gotta give it back.
You know, Ezra...
your dad saved this from Hilltop when it burned
because he knew how precious it was to me.
But there's something actually more precious,
and that is your family.
So this leash is yours, on two conditions.
One, that it always makes you as happy as it made me.
And two, that you honor Shiva's memory
and always think of her when you play with it.
You have fun, buddy.
Ezekiel, you sure?
Yeah, just be careful. It's a chain.
Who's hungry? Yeah?
Looks like they had fun today.
Oh, I think it was good for everybody.
Yeah.
How are you feeling?
Also good.
- Excuse me. - Mm.
How was your doctor's appointment?
Fine. No changes.
Have you heard from Maggie or Lydia?
I'm sure they're okay.
Are you?
On a beautiful day like today?
Never better.
Oh, gosh. I'm so sorry!
I'm... I'm such a klutz!
Carol?
What are you doing here?
Sorry.
Snooping.
I was worried about Ezekiel.
What do you want to know?
Well, I know that he needs surgery,
and I know that he's in line.
How long before you get to number 147?
Too long.
Patients aren't aware of their place in line,
so can you do me a favor and keep that yourself?
Mm-hmm. Of course.
Does Ezekiel know how bad his chances are?
He knows the odds aren't good.
But he doesn't know
there's likely no chance he'll get the surgery
unless by some miracle he moves up the line.
I'm sorry. I wish I could do more.
Welcome to the kill house.
In this exercise, killing is not your primary goal.
I'm looking for speed and teamwork.
Two teams of two will start the course simultaneously.
One team goes through the house on the right,
the other team takes the house on the left.
There's one weapon per team that must be shared.
Your objective... get through the house
and all the rotters inside.
There will be a rotter marked in red at the end of each house.
First team to take out their red gets one step closer
to earning their stripes.
But fail to work as a unit...
see what you get.
Hart, you're with Thomas.
Espinosa, Green.
Quintana, Johnson.
Dixon, Daniels.
Team up.
You mind if I go with Espinosa? We make a good team.
Did I ask for your opinion?
Espinosa, Green.
Dixon, Daniels.
You're up first.
We got this. I know you're the fastest,
and I'm the baddest, so we're good.
Let's do this.
Hey. I'm Jake.
'Sup, Jake?
Aah!
I got it!
Clear.
Move.
Take it!
Keep going!
Aah!
Espinosa!
Dixon!
And what was that?
He was good. I was right there.
I said speed and teamwork.
Green, Espinosa. Nicely done.
Dixon.
You're with me.
Wow.
You have to get this. It's so good.
I don't have any money.
Oh. Don't you get an allowance?
Hey! Who's your friend, Jude?
Hi, Princess! This is Mei.
Oh, I see Mei got the memo. I dig her already.
You guys need any help?
Um, I think I'm ready to check out.
Oh, rock on. Good taste.
Well, pleasure doing business, and come back anytime, ladies.
You didn't have to.
It's a gift. For a friend
Can I have the receipt?
Oh, don't worry about paying me back.
I'd like it as a reminder. Of a good day.
None of these are going to work.
- Seriously? - None of these.
This is ridiculous.
I'm not angry, I'm just frustrated.
She wants something worthy of tonight's guests.
That isn't it.
We did the best we could with the time we had.
She knows you'll come through.
Aah!
Hi.
Espinosa, we don't need you for this.
I volunteered.
Give her a bag. I love volunteers.
Especially ones that look like that.
Right here.
Alright. Let's see what Santa brought me.
This supposed to be funny?
He gets the newest ones for his drills.
Advanced military training, Mercer.
Advanced military training.
It's fine.
Hey, careful with that one.
This toothpick?
Yeah. It's not worth my time.
You gotta swing all the way through.
That thing is pathetic. Belongs on a wall.
Alright. Release the rotters.
With me.
Two at a time, on my count.
Three, two, one.
Why did you do that?! You...
Are you serious?
This is the future soldier of the Commonwealth?
You shouldn't have intervened. He would've been fine.
Did I fail another team-building exercise?
You're used to handling things on your own. I get that.
But that's not how it works around here.
Sometimes we have to set each other up to win.
What does that have to do with that little prick's ego?
This place is as good as anything I've seen.
It'll give you a decent life if you can cut it.
And I want you to succeed.
But you gotta get out of your own damn way.
You get lost out there?
Sorry. Long line at the kitchen.
Here you go.
How was your day?
- What? - How was your day?
It was great.
- I made a new friend. - Oh, yeah?
She got me a record.
You ever heard of Motorhead?
That's good stuff.
Here, boy.
Oh. Hi!
- Daryl? - Yeah?
Can I get an allowance?
Can we wait a little while 'til my job settles?
Then we'll talk about it again?
So, we can stay?
Do you want to stay?
Even after Alexandria is all cleaned up?
- I do! - Yeah?
It's nice.
I think as long as my mom knows
where to find us, I want to stay.
Yeah, no. It's way too tight.
Tell Max we'll have something by tonight.
How did you know?
My mother always taught me to be observant.
So, you found a way to get outside the walls, huh?
Mm...
What do you want from me?
I have a friend who's waiting for surgery,
and I need you to get him to the front of the line.
That's a big ask.
Difficult stuff.
Not for you.
First things first.
I need to make sure this wine goes over well.
Oh, it will.
Mmm! I can almost taste it.
Shame, my kids don't even know what mango is.
Well, maybe they'll have some one day.
My kids?
Not anytime soon.
Thank you.
Want some wine?
We hear it's really good.
Thank you.
Cheers.
What's wrong?
Not really my scene.
You know, I was cool being on the other side of this.
But this... this is your world, not mine.
Okay. Just take it easy.
If this is how the other half lives,
might as well enjoy it, right?
Mm. Thank you.
On your left! On your left!
- Shot over here! - This way!
- Good to see you, sir! - Enjoy the party.
- Quick photo?
One more look. This way, sir.
Wow. He hates you.
That was a hate smile.
Hey, Mercer! Echate pa ca!
Gonna need a translation.
I just wanted to say hi.
You look very handsome tonight. Súper guapo.
It's not my thing.
Oh, it is. Trust me.
You know, uh...
I hate these big events.
Kinda boring.
You want to make it more interesting?
Join me?
I would be honored.
Name?
She's with me.
There's a dress code.
Princess!
Pamela, how do you like the wine?
It's fine.
If you'll excuse me, Lance, I'm due for an interview.
Oh, and we need to get a meeting on the books
about this Alexandria thing.
- I have questions. - I have a pitch.
I'm sure you do.
Connie, so lovely to see you again.
Kelly, nice to meet you.
I hope you're enjoying the festivities.
"Such an eventful day.
But speaking on the record,
do you celebrate every holiday with such grandeur here?"
Traditions provide comfort and structure in uncertain times.
So, yes, we treasure our holidays here.
But Halloween is extra special.
You may remember from my father's time in the White House
that it was his favorite.
He always loved a good masquerade ball.
"What would your father say about the class divide
on display here?"
Well, we're lucky you've found us.
We appreciate and celebrate every single person
who contributes to our vibrant community.
In fact, I want to introduce you to someone.
Carrie is last year's lottery winner.
This is her first masquerade ball!
If you'll excuse me.
- Excuse me, Pamela, I'm... - Excuse me. I'm sorry.
Ms. Milton has a very strict itinerary tonight.
That guy looks so familiar.
Yeah, I kicked his ass in the train car.
- That Trooper? - Uh-huh.
Why is he serving food?
Testing, testing.
Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention
for a moment, please?
It is my honor tonight to introduce someone
who needs no introduction.
Our esteemed leader,
the governor of the Commonwealth,
Ms. Pamela Milton!
Thank you all for coming out this evening.
Tonight, I have the great pleasure
of giving you a sneak peek at something truly special.
This is the work of the brilliant Alexa Park,
who is here tonight.
Don't be shy, Alexa.
It took Ms. Park nine months
to lovingly create this painting.
Like many of our citizens,
she sustained serious injuries out in the world
before she found sanctuary at the Commonwealth.
Thanks to my father's sacrifices,
we are all here.
Brick by brick and block by block,
we're putting the world back together
the way it was.
My father would be so proud
to see what the Commonwealth is today.
How much this place protects and cares for all its citizens.
Bullshit!
This is bullshit!
- Sir, that's enough... - Does anyone here really believe
the Commonwealth cares for all its citizens?
Do you know who I am?
Sir, this isn't the time.
Please, you need to stop.
Don't come any closer!
I just want to talk.
Will you please just talk to me?!
I would've died for this place. What's my name?!
I don't know. But I'd like to.
Tyler Davis. I was a Trooper.
I tried and I tried to reach you.
One mistake and I lost everything.
I came here to talk to you, to make you listen.
Tyler. I want to listen.
Let's talk, just the two of us...
Don't lie!
This is what you care about.
Fancy parties and paintings.
Not people like me.
We're nothing to you. Disposable.
You're wrong, Tyler.
I see you.
I see you're hurting and I want to fix that.
But first, you have to promise not to hurt anyone else.
Please put down the knife and let my assistant go.
Her name is Max.
I'm like you.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm okay. I'm okay.
Just gonna stand there?
Go after him!
Get him.
South wing and roof, all clear.
I need a status on Dixon.
Got nowhere to go.
You taking me in?
You gonna give me a choice?
Shit, I didn't mean to...
I just wanted to talk to her,
to get her to understand.
But that was never gonna happen.
Stop!
Don't do that.
I screwed up protocols with a prisoner.
I got beat up.
Lost my apartment, my spending card...
I have no way to help my sister or kids.
You got a sister.
That means you got family.
A lot of us don't get to have that anymore.
Don't take that away from her. It's not fair.
Turn around.
Let's go.
You caught the bastard.
Finally did something right.
No.
No, you caught him.
Go ahead. Take him to your mom.
He could have grabbed anyone.
Well done, Sebastian.
Remove him.
You think getting rid of me solves anything?
There are thousands more like me.
Resist the Commonwealth!
Visibility for workers!
Equality for all!
Are there thousands more?
No.
Make sure.
Inside, please, miss. Let's go.
How'd the wine go over?
Great.
It was a good first step.
What's next?
I'm glad you asked.
Murphy, you're on the door.
Katz, Lewis, split the wait staff.
Figure out how he gained access.
Did he have help? I want answers.
Espinosa.
Your friend on the wait staff.
- Yeah. - See if she knows anything.
Yes, sir.
So, did you work with him long?
No, we never even met.
Oh, really? It's such a small crew here.
You think I'm lying?
I'm just trying to figure out what happened.
I think it's pretty clear.
Didn't you hear what he said?
Yeah, that there were others.
What do you think he meant by that?
No idea.
But for what it's worth, I believe him.
This place is like a city from before.
You remember.
Yeah, I do.
But you're doing this.
So, you don't know how he got in?
Nope.
Great.
I wasn't expecting you.
Well, it's nice to see you, too.
Come in.
Thanks.
Oh!
Vintage?
Yes. I am a lady of high caliber.
The highest.
Wasn't that something today?
Oh.
They really know how to throw a party around here, don't they?
Kids had a blast.
Yeah.
He would've loved it.
Yeah.
I know that this was too painful before, but...
This belongs to you.
- You should keep it. - No, no, no.
I want you to have it.
This place can be a fresh start.
If you want it to be.
How are you? Really?
Just great.
Still finding reasons to smile.
Well, then...
To fresh starts.
Mm.
It's not bad. It's not bad at all.
- You always took the big glass. - Mm-hmm.
You look awesome.
Thanks.
And you look official.
Yeah? You think so?
Hm.
I don't feel official.
Hey, I got you something.
Yes!
