Molly was woken up early that morning by Hank, who led her up to the roof and to her assignment. "Today we're gonna be workin' on the crane, bringin' soil up here for the greenhouse" he told her.
"Yeah, I know the drill, I've done this job before" she droned.
Hank smirked and walked to the other side of the crane so that he was opposite Molly. "The soil is already tied together and attached so this should be easy, so lets haul some ass"
Molly reached for the crank while Hank kept an eye on the pen bellow. "So..." He began, trying to make conversation. "What do you think of the new people?"
"You mean the prisoners?" Molly replied venomously.
"There are no prisoners here, it's just... Work release" he stated, trying his best to justify the situation.
"Who are these new people exactly?" She asked, going back to his previous question.
"You know, the kid, the bearded man, and the Indian lady" he told her.
"You mean the rest of them have been here before?". People actually escaped from here? Molly questioned inside her head.
"Yeah, they got out a while back but Bill tracked 'em down"
"Why would he do that? Why not just let them go?" What could Carver possibly gain from it?
"Bill thinks that Rebecca, the pregnant lady, is carrying his child."
"And what if it's not?" Molly dared to question.
"Bill doesn't care. He'll raise the child as his own. Anyway, Alvin, who could be the real father, probably won't be around for much longer. After what he did to George, he's gonna to pay" Hank's voice darkened at his last sentence.
There were muffled voices coming from below but Molly ignored them. She had taken her hands off the crank by now and was invested in the conversation "What's that supposed to mean?". Clearly she had missed something.
Hank was about to say something when he noticed something going on in the pen "Shit, what's happenin' down there?" He questioned aloud and leaning over the edge of the roof.
Molly leaned over and stared down into the yard to see the group gathered together with Carver addressing them. He then walked up to Carlos and ordered him to do something. She glanced at Hank who returned her gaze and shrugged. She glanced back down at the pen and watched as Carlos lifted his hand and slapped his daughter across the face, the force of the blow knocking her to the ground.
"Oh my god" Molly breathed in disbelief.
Hank pushed himself off the ledge and straightened himself up, while shaking his head bitterly. "Damn" he murmured simply.
"That was fucked up" Molly stated bluntly. "Now, hang on. Don't jump to conclusions. There must have been a reason behind it" Hank replied, his attempts to justify the situation were failing miserably.
"Your boss just ordered a man to slap his own daughter. What kind of a person does that?!"
Hank sighed and moved back towards the crane "Look, it wasn't always like this, y'know. Things were different. This was a good place in the eyes of all of the community. It's just stressful for Bill, that's all. He is in charge of a huge amount of people and on top of that, he has a baby on the way." He informed her. "Lets just get back to work, alright? We can't slack off"
Molly began to turn the crank when a creaking sound came from the wooden support beams "I think it's going to give"
Hank grimaced and looked at the soil "Just keep bringing it up" he ordered.
She continued to turn the crank when another creak came from the beams. A moment later there was a loud snap, and thump echoed through the courtyard as the soil collided with the ground.
"God damn this thing!" Hank exclaimed angrily.

I agree with Molly. That is fucked up. Keep on the good work.

I will, o0HeaDShoT0oMolly and Hank's relationship is a bit better than her relationship with any of the other guards.

Molly grimaced "It broken?" She asked.
Hank stared down at the rope and hook which had been bringing the soil up "The rope snapped" he murmured "Goddammit" he growled, kicking the crane frustratedly "This thing can't support much weight at all. I'm gonna have to get Stan up here to fix it" he stated, removing the walkie talkie from his belt.
"Why is Carver expanding and using up all his resources when there's stuff within the settlement that needs fixing?" She questioned aloud.
"The expansion is Bill's main priority. It's his big fucking plan"
"Isn't it better to fix something old than try and build something new?"
"Well..." Hank began, before scratching his beard and looking puzzled "I don't know what Bill's mindset is. I just do what I'm told. Being a guard, that's my job. I do what I can and if I'm needed for a job with one of you lot in the pen then I do it"
"So... Since this things broken, what am I suppose to do?" She asked. "I'm out of work, after all"
Hank paused "I'm sure Tavia can find something for you to do. I'll call her up". He lifted the radio to his mouth and held down the button "Hey, Tavia, where are ya?"
A crackle came from the radio "I'm escorting Clementine to the armoury, why?" Tavia's muffled voice answered.
"The crane broke and I'm going to get Stan to fix it, but that means Molly doesn't have an assignment. Could you find something for her to do?"
"Send her down here and I'll find her something" Tavia replied.
"Sure thing. Hank out" and with that he turned his radio off and attracted it to his belt. He then turned towards Molly "You heard her, get down to the armoury to find your replacement assignment. I'll sort out the crane"
Molly nodded and turned to leave. "And please don't run off again. You'll just end up getting yourself in trouble again" he advised her.
"Don't worry, I won't. I'm done trying to get out of here" she replied dryly.
Hank nodded briefly and went back to examining the crane while Molly made her way over to the fire exit and made her way down into the hardware store.

Man, Carver's camp must've lowered her self-confidence during the past week she spent there. But hopefully, Clem and Ken can help bring it back up. As well as a cold served dish of revenge.

I'm glad I did something right. You figured out that Molly has had her confidence smashed to bits.

I'm taking a bit of a break. My minds on other things. Namely episode 5. I'll pick up where I left off once I get over being a broken, depressed, wreck.

I understand.
Also, we don't even know for sure what's gonna happen in the finale. But if worse comes to worse, (Mainly for Kenny's sake), I'll do something to help make up for it.
Plus, you can always write this in some sort of way that'll help prevent it from happening.

Well, worse didn't come to worse after all. What I was thinking of doing was if Kenny's death wasn't preventable was start a memorial dedicated to him. But since he can still live, I see no need for it. Also, I think we both know what Molly would really do in that certain situation. So, with all that's said and done, I'll leave you to it, pal.
