WARNING: If you don't want to know what happened in this episode, don't read this photo recap! 

Ears ringing, dust swirling and settling, everyone is coming to after the shock bombing right as the Newmerica vote was about to be read. What's happening? First, help survivors and zombie-vivors. Some of whom are impaled on large items now protruding from their bodies.

It's not long before the Zs smell fresh blood, and there don't seem to be enough biscuits to go around. Doc and the crew defend the living. Yep, it's this again.

Many once-human delegates are now "talkers." Warren, George and Estes huddle up. He has sources saying a talker was behind the bombing. But why? The vote was a landslide -- with Z talkers as full citizens. And where is George's Z-pal, Dante?

A perimeter breach and lockdown means everyone is on high alert. Meanwhile, Citizen's camera may have caught the culprit on film. Estes quickly appears and demands Citizen hand over the camera. To review, of course. And noticeably before anyone else can. Suspicious…

Murphy is on the run -- sensing the need for a scapegoat during a sabotage and lockdown. He sneaks and battles his way out, and does not seem to notice that he's being followed.

Estes speaks to all of Altura. He announces that Dante is a person of interest and calls for a quarantine of all talkers. Things are taking a quick turn for the way worse.

Dante rushes the gates and escapes Altura grounds in a van -- with Murphy along for the ride. They escape into Z territory. And then Murphy falls off the van and Dante keeps driving.

Warren, Doc and Citizen go on the run. They are taking George to her home in Pacifica and looking for answers. And it would  be nice to find Murphy and Dante, while they're at it.

Estes gets a status report on everyone's whereabouts and the captive talkers. One who is roaming free? Pandora, and Estes is in no hurry to fence her in. What has she talked him into? It definitely looks like she's working him. With her tongue.

Murphy is still being followed, even across this wasteland. When his stalker catches up, turns out it's Wesson. From Murphytown. Bonus: He's thrilled to see Murphy. And he's got one dozen blended friends, they have vehicles, and they want to take him to Limbo. OK? OK!

The on-the-run crew snaked a truck from some humans that were out hunting Zs. They used a limping lure to lead them down a dirt road and then took their truck. On their way to Pacifica, they find some talkers that had escaped with Dante and were tortured, killed and then strung up and burned. It's horrifying. And where's Dante?

Talkers are being held behind barbed wire, without biscuits. When Sun Mei and Sarge give Marjorie one, there's a fast crush at the fence, and then a collapsed wall and an escape.

Starved for biscuits and now escaped, zombies are attacking all over Altura. 10K rushes off to help someone and is quickly surrounded. And -- OMG -- bit! Is this it? After all this time? 10K! Red to the rescue - she chops off his arm at the bite. But it's not over --

In order for 10K and Red to get away, Sarge jumps into the fray. As the Zs bite her and close in, Sarge takes the pin out of a grenade and makes the ultimate sacrifice.

Warren, Doc, CZ and George bury the bodies of the tortured talkers. They wonder who could have done this -- and who is responsible for the bombing. Still on Dante's trail, searching for answers, they continue their journey to Pacifica.
