[Rick tells Jessie that Pete needs to be stopped]

Rick Grimes:
He's hitting you. He's hurting you. It has to stop.

Jessie Anderson:
[Jessie pauses to see that Rick knows] It will.

Rick Grimes:
How?

Jessie Anderson:
There are things in his life that happened.

Rick Grimes:
I don't care.

Jessie Anderson:
Look, it was like this before and he got help. I helped him and things were good. I can fix it.

Rick Grimes:
No, you can't. But I can.

Jessie Anderson:
No, what - What can you do? What are you gonna do? You gonna put him in jail? You're only gonna make things worse.

Rick Grimes:
If it's gotten worse, it means he's killed you. That's what's next. And I'm not gonna let that happen.

Jessie Anderson:
[Jessie pauses before asking Rick questions] Why do you care? Why is this so important to you? Now? You've made it. You have a home for your kids. Rick, what are you doing?

Rick Grimes:
I'm trying to help.

Jessie Anderson:
I don't know that. I'm married. Okay? I can take care of myself. We have to take care of ourselves.

[Jessie goes back into her house as Rick walks out in the street, seeing the happy people talk, walk their dog, reading a book, and then Sam with a red balloon]

Jessie Anderson:
[Rick enters into Jessie's home where she's crying to herself] What are you doing?

Rick Grimes:
[Rick's voice shakes] You know Sam asked for a gun? To protect you.

Jessie Anderson:
[Jessie cries and asks for Rick to leave] You shouldn't be here.

Rick Grimes:
Jessie, in here, you can't see it, but it's the same. It's the same as out there. We have food and roofs over our heads, but you don't get to just live. You don't get to put it off or wish it away, Jessie. If you don't fight, you die. And... and I don't want you to die.

Rick Grimes:
[Jessie raises her eyes with tears in them and looks close at Rick] I can - I can help you. I can keep you and your boys safe. I can. All you have to do is say yes.

Jessie Anderson:
[Jessie whispers to Rick] Would you do this for someone else? Would you do this for anyone?

Rick Grimes:
[Rick looks down before whispering back] No. No.

Jessie Anderson:
[Jessie whispers low] Yes.

Pete Anderson:
[Rick and Jessie silently stare into each other's eyes when Pete walks into the room] Rick.
