Hershel Greene

This is 

The End of The World —

We don't GET to be upset.

We all got jobs to do. 

Maggie :

(sobs ) 

WHY aren't you in quarantine? 

Hershel: 

I'm no good to anyone in there. 

Maggie :

Daddy, please. 

Hershel: 

Maggie, dear — there are people in there SUFFERING. 

I can bring their fever down 

and keep them stable. 

Maggie :

Daryl's getting the antibiotics. 

Hershel: 

Some of these people won't LAST 12 hours....!

Maggie :

I can't let you do this. 

Hershel: 

Maggie, Glenn's in there. 

What's going on? 

Hershel: 

Elderberries. 

My wife used to make tea with them. 

They're a natural ‘flu remedy. 

Caleb's too sick to help. I can.

 

There's so many times we haven't been able to do anything to change What Was Happening-- 

What Was Happening TO Us. 

We wished we could, 

but we couldn't. 

This time, I can. I know I can. 

So I have to. 

Rick :

Hershel, if you go in there, you're gonna get sick. 

Hershel: 

Wait, we don't KNOW that. 

What we •do• know is that these people's symptoms •need• to be controlled. 

Hershel, please. 

We can wait. 

Hershel: 

LISTEN, damn it! 

You step outside, 

you risk your life. 

You take a drink of water, 

you risk your life. 

And nowadays you breathe, 

and you risk your life. 

Every moment now you don't have A Choice — 

The only thing you CAN choose 

is what you're risking it FOR. 

Now, I can make these people feel BETTER and HANG ON a little bit longer. 

I can SAVE Lives. 

That's reason enough 

to risk mine.

And you know that.
