Rick leads the group out of Atlanta. On the highway, they are stopped by a threat unlike anything they have seen before. The group searches for someone who has gone missing.
Coming to the aid of another, Rick discovers a possible safe haven. Shane must go on a dangerous mission to get badly needed medical supplies.
The group desperately awaits Shane's return. Shane finds himself trapped in a school, surrounded by the undead. Daryl and Andrea search for someone in the woods.
Shane makes a deadly sacrifice which leads to unusual behaviour and self-distancing. The rest of the group tries to hang on somewhere between living to die and dying to live.
Glenn, the only one breaking barriers between both groups, knows far too much for his comfort level. Daryl finds a sign of life and, in his delirium, tries to make it back to the farm alive.
Secrets are told and secrets are revealed. Hershel refuses to acknowledge the world's new reality. Andrea comes out of her shell. Everyone is becoming more and more aware that "everything is food for something."
