Life And Death

This is the twenty-sixth episode of Old Man Dwight.

Story
Beckett: Wow. I can;t believe you got through my security. But, Kaylee, I think you went too far on Wyatt. Chopping him to pieces? That's just cruel.
 * Beckett is amazed to see that the group has survived this far.

Kaylee: He tried to kill the children!

Beckett: Sorry about that. He gets a little...agressive when threatened.

Ryan: Why are you kidnapping skilled people from various communites and forcing them into slave labor?

Beckett: Ryan, you'll understand in time. We are trying to end the suffering of the apoclaypse. A way to feel happy and safe again.

Kevin: But, does that justify slavery, torture, and killing?

Beckett: It does. It's all for a greater purpose.

Kaylee: He may be right.

Kevin: What are you saying, Kaylee?

Kaylee: This cure can create a safe place for our children and our children's children and so on.

Beckett: Now, those are some words I want to hear.

Kevin: You...TRAITOR! Beckett: Soon, you'll all understand what we go through in order to achieve this new world.
 * Beckett pulls out a handgun and shoots Kevin in the head.

Tate: You're insane.

Beckett: Or, are you? Tate, you were one of our finest gatherers of workers. Why you left, I did not know?

Tate: You used my brother!

Beckett: Your brother is dead.

Tate: Don't you dare talk about my brother! Beckett: Why are you doing this? I was your mentor.
 * Tate pulls out a handgun and points it at Beckett.

Tate: Not anymore. Kaylee: Why did you do that?
 * Tate shot Beckett in the head. Kaylee gets furious.

Tate: He's insane. He justifies slavery, torture, and murder.

Kaylee: I want to cure the plague. Nick: Why did she get so insane?
 * Kaylee leaves to gather all the research equipment.

Tate: Beckett is very convincing. Kaylee: Kids, you're coming with me.
 * She walks back into Beckett's office.

Kids (Except Zoey): Yes Kaylee.

Zoey: No, I'm not going! I'm not leaving Sam!

Kaylee: What importance does he have to you?

Zoey: He gave me a home. A family. And I'm not leaving my family.

Kaylee: Allright. Suit yourself. Annie: Can't believe she went nuts.
 * Kaylee takes off with the kids and the equipment.
