Plot Synopsis
In the previous issue, Chris and Julie had committed to shooting each other in a suicide pact. However, it doesn't go as planned, and Chris shoots Julie too soon. Rick finds Tyreese hugging his dead daughter's body and hears Chris explaining that they were supposed to kill each other at the same time. Julie then turns and attempts to bite Tyreese.

Rick is not able to get a clean shot, so Chris shoots her. Tyreese then chokes Chris to death in a rage and then continues to beat the animated corpse of Chris. The next day while discussing it they realize that they don't need to be bitten for them to turn.

Rick returns to the Atlanta Camp to kill the reanimated Shane, Rick explains to Shane that he was a good man, Rick then kills Shane, but Rick doesn't rebury him. Rick then leaves and heads back to the prison.

Glenn and Maggie Greene find the barbershop in the prison where they have sex and cut their hair. Susie and Rachel later go and find it to cut their hair too.

Tyreese, Glenn, Andrea and Billy head inside the gym to clear it; however, Tyreese attacks the zombies suicidally and they are forced to leave him behind.
