How are you here to meet your fellow survivor and you are carrying a weapon?

Boy, don’t annoy me.

She has her own weapon as well…

A gun. Wow, I guess living alone in the world for a year makes you suspicious of everything.

She let him in.

And she is new to the area. So where has she been living all this while?

She has been nomadic all this while and chose a house that was for sale. She said it was because most houses that were for sale before the pandemic hit were the only houses with no bodies inside.

That is a smart strategy. It keeps her safe from catching the illness.

They are moving to his house.

This is nice. They both need the company.

Ish said he has never brought a proper girl home before.

Well, the circumstance you are in is not proper either.

They are in his home.

This situation they’re in is so, I don’t know the words to describe it but they are forced to trust each other because they are all each other has.

Humans are social beings and they are happy to have someone to talk to even though that person is a complete stranger.

Oh my God…

Ish had tied up a noose to kill himself with.

She checked his pantry and he had a mice infestation.

and he hadn’t noticed all this while. Weird.

Is this his personal warehouse or he went to a shop’s warehouse?

It is a supermarket.

There are dead bodies in the supermarket: a mother and a child.

There’s a rat in the supermarket.

What in the Lassa fever hell?! I hope this rat storyline is not going to lead to a death by the end of this episode?

She is dragging his cooking.

Girl, you’re going to have to teach him how to season his food. That man has just been eating to survive and not for the enjoyment.

Ish is catching fish now.

I guess, they are on their way to cooking proper meals.

By the way, the lady’s name is EMMA.

Emma has great survival skills. She made Ish fish, while she went to the forest to search for plants or mushrooms they could eat.

She also made him build a contraption for them to plant.

She even helped to groom him.

Wow, she is truly the angel Ish says that she is.

She also has him making a chicken coop.

That’s nice. They are officially LIVING rather than existing and waiting to die.

I guess they are Adam and Eve-ing this situation they are in.

Whatever you do, please don’t have children. Just let the world perish after you are gone.

Ish journals…

Smart…

He is doing the solar for them to have power.

He fell from the roof and hurt his back.

and leg.

This is going to set them back on their power plans for at least two weeks.

Not him trying to act macho.

You fell from the roof, my guy. It is okay to be hurt.

Emma said something that was so honest about their relationship.

Well, nature arranged you.

Oh my God, she was once married with kids before.

Moving on must be so sad for her. She might even have survivor’s guilt.

Emma is pregnant.

There are enough condoms for y’all not to have kids and you still did?

Why?

Who is going to deliver that baby? What about immunisation? Healthcare?

How will this child survive when you’re gone?

I’m tired of these two. They are so dumb.

That explains why she was reminiscing about the family she had lost because she was already two months pregnant.

Exactly! Which was why you two should have used condoms. How are you having sex with a woman of childbearing age WITHOUT A CONDOM and thinking a baby won’t happen?!

Or did Emma tell you she was sterile?

Ish is at the library collecting books on obstetrics and gynaecology.

This rats again. Hmm, I hope somebody is not going to die in this episode. My heart can’t take it.

They now have chickens and Ish is already thinking of which one to slaughter.

Emma is craving meat and Ish decides to go hunt even though he doesn’t know how to.

He goes out and finds cows just chilling.

Are they now wild animals or is this a signal that people live in the area?

He killed that white cow and had to read a book on how to butcher it.

It was a traumatic experience for him.

Lucky is eating the raw meat.

Is this a foreshadowing of something evil about to happen in this episode?

Isherwood finally finished laying the solar panels.

What is left is to connect them to the inverter and batteries.

He did it!!!

These rats again.

There are thousands of rats and they are all heading to their house because he killed a cow – basically meat i.e. food.

I’m nervous.

He is burning their trash while she is shooting the rats.

Isn’t that a waste of bullets?

Look at all these rats.

Jesus!

Lucky is outside.

Now they have to unseal their house.

Cats came to save the day.

Hallelujah!

Year 2

Their baby is coming.

I am so worried for her.

This is why you don’t have a child in the stone age.

They had a daughter.

Their arranged marriage is now a love marriage.

Emma named their daughter after his mother.

Emma took out her braids.

Emma put this up. Why?

Someone has found them.

I hope this person is not a demon.

Final Thoughts.

I love this show. It is so slept on by the general public but it is a gem. It is such a good show.
