Tonight’s FTWD episode begins with John wanting to have a chat with Victor about how Howard acts, throwing people over the tower if he finds them with a walkie-talkie. June tells John not to bother, the only thing Victor likes is the sound of his own voice. The only thing Victor will change is John. A man walks in and says they found another walkie-talkie, this one was with Howard.

John goes to Victor and tells him that he has concerns about how is running the place. Then, we see Howard being thrown over the tower, he tells Victor he was framed. Victor says he needs people he can trust, now more than ever. Victor lets him live but says he can’t believe a word he says, he looks over at John and says he needs proof and he is going to get it for him. The phone rings, and Baby Mo is missing. Victor turns to Howard and tells him to find her by sunrise or he will finish what happened on the roof of the tower. Then, Victor tells John he doesn’t trust Howard, he wants him to find Baby Mo. John gives Victor advice, he tells he knows how doing the wrong thing for the right reason, doesn’t end well.

John speaks to Mo’s nanny and many others who don’t know where the baby is. Last, he speaks to June and says he knows that she is upset about what happened to Ali, did she take the baby? June says they want the same thing and the only way to get that is to take out Victor. Morgan and the others are not going to make a move if the baby is in the tower. John says Victor was right, the resistance was real, and she is part of it. John asks her about the walkie in Howard’s room, she says that wasn’t her.

John then goes to Howard’s room and looks around, saying it is quite the collection. John says that Victor asked him to look for the baby too and he has to question him like he would anyone else. Howard pours himself a drink. John mentions Howard’s wife and son and asks where they are. He says he doesn’t know, his wife left him before the walkers arrived. He tells him about the “Travis letter” the most important document in Texas history.

He forged something and all the papers that praised him were smearing him. His wife packed her bags and left him. But here, in the tower, he has made history. Rangers show up and say the baby is not outside, they combed the place. John asks about the people he threw off the roof, and how that plays into his legacy. He says he is not proud of everything he has had to do.

John finds June and Baby Mo, he figured where she was because of the mud on her boots. John tells her it is not safe. June says Morgan is posted about half a mile away. All of a sudden, a flood of water comes in and breaks a gate that was separating them from the walkers. They manage to secure it and John takes Baby Mo, he tells June that he can’t let her take her. June tells him that he lost a child too and they have to give her the best chance. John tells her that he has a plan in motion, he planted the walkie.

She tells him that when he planted the purse and had Teddy thrown in jail it ruined his life, he has to stop or he will ruin his life again. June tells him to guard her with his life, She is going to get through those walkers just like Mickey did. John says they are going to make it, and June yells at him to go. John says he is not leaving, he shoots a couple of walkers but only has one bullet left and can’t use it. John tells June that Baby Mo will die out there, just like Charley and him who have both have been exposed. June calls Grace and says she needs some help.

Grace is late, John tells June that he was careful and quick bringing Charley back from that building and still got exposed. He thought John was going to be his legacy and he cannot lose another child. Victor and Howard show up, who tells Victor that they identified the resistance. Howard starts laughing when he hears Baby Mo, he takes her and tells Victor that he told him he would find her. Victor says he didn’t find her, John did. Howard looks furious, this was a chance to redeem himself in front of Victor.

On the roof of the tower, Victor has John and Howard. Victor asks John if he believes in this place. Victor tells John to push him over the edge. John tells Victor he doesn’t deserve it because he framed Howard to gain an audience with him. Victor tells John that he will send Howard over the edge, or he will bring up Grace or June. John does it and tells him he threw a lot of people over.

Back in Howard’s room, John finds a bottle and starts drinking, a lot. He looks at Howard’s family photo and turns it over. The door opens and Victor walks in with Baby Mo and says I thought you were off the sauce but far be it for me to judge. Then Victor tells him to pour him one and toasts to their future. Victor tells him to feel free to junk all the stuff in the room, Howard has no need for it now.

There is a record player and Victor plays some classical music and turns up the volume. Victor tells him that he doesn’t want what happened today to happen ever again. Victor says he knows that Grace and June were in on it, he is going to keep Baby Mo and raise her himself. John asks how he first into all of this, Victor tells him to do what he has to keep the baby safe. John tells her that he really wants her to love him, and let him help change the place. John says he was never going to listen to what he was going to say. John picks up a gun and whacks Victor in the back of the head, then calls Morgan who is just beyond the wall. John picks up Baby Mo and tells Morgan that he is bringing her to him.

John gets suited up and tells June that he is going to do this, he wants to do it. Grace tells Mo to be brave, then hands her to John who puts her under the armor that he is wearing. Grace tells him not to stop until he gets to Morgan. June tells him that he needs to go, he tells her it is never too late and thanks to her for making him remember that.

Victor is awake, his head is sore, and he is ready to find Baby Mo. Meanwhile, John is going through a load of walkers, he says Howard the walker on the ground reaches out to him. Victor is on the roof, John is so close to Morgan. Grace and June are watching when rangers come in and take them away. Victor tells Wes to get the big antenna. John makes it to Morgan, but he has been bitten, he sacrificed himself for Baby Mo. Victor radios Morgan and tells him that he will kill Grace and June if he steps inside the tower and he calls for more people to join him. Morgan keeps walking away with Baby Mo.

THE END!
