T-Dog suggests that the group heads to the Georgian Atlantic Coast as in the early days of the apocalypse, there were rumors that the military was stationed there and sending people to some nearby islands to survive the apocalypse.
A young girl, Rachel Ward, kills a walker on the beach. Soon after, she spots another body that has washed up on the shore. Assuming it's a soon-to-be-walker, Rachel moves in for the kill. Her older companion, Cyndie, stops her. Cyndie points out that the body (which is revealed to be Tara), is still alive, but unconscious. Rachel reminds Cyndie that they're supposed to kill all strangers they encounter. However, Cyndie persuades her to spare Tara's life and drags Tara's body up the beach.
Cyndie later returns to the beach and finds Tara asleep in the hiding spot where she left her. Cyndie leaves a fish wrapped in cloth, a couple of water bottles, and a spear next to Tara then walks away. Tara, who had only been pretending to sleep, follows Cyndie into the woods.
A walker washes up on shore and Judith cuts it down before re-joining Michonne, Daryl, and the others in a combat training exercise on the Oceanside beach. Aaron leads a shield-wielding front line to a washed-up boat where Jerry and Ezekiel repeatedly open the hatch to let walkers out in waves. In an organized effort, the archers take out the first wave, the spear-wielders the second, and the melee weapons third. The walkers quickly break down the door and the army finishes them off.
Back on the beach, Kelly and Connie are helping Rachel and some other Oceanside residents with dragging a net, when Kelly nearly trips over a pile of nets, despite being warned repeatedly about it. Kelly tells Connie she's worried her gradual hearing loss will prevent her from translating for her. Connie assures her that she'll be okay and they should see their deafness as a superpower. Suddenly, Dog runs over with Daryl following behind. Kelly gives Connie a look suggesting she and Daryl are into each other, but Connie just rolls her eyes.
On a dock, Ezekiel and Daryl look out at the ocean. They have a conversation about Ezekiel's time in a zoo. He was only scared of birds back then. Connie comes up and delivers Dog to Daryl with a note saying, "Think you lost something." He communicates with her in ASL and she tells him that he signs with a southern accent. Suddenly, Carol arrives on a boat. She awkwardly greets Ezekiel and quickly moves on to talk to Daryl, who lifts her up in a hug.
The Atlantic Coast appears in the archival footage shown at the beginning of "Family" as Judith narrates past events of the show to the audience before the episode's story begins.
