    Alicia caught Charlie in the house she was taking shelter in from a really bad storm with a tornado and walkers

    Alicia Clark: I just wanted to be left alone. You should have left me alone. Why are you here? Did you follow me? You can't be here. You can't be here.

    Alicia tries to leave but gets knocked out and before the walkers could get her Charlie saved her by dragging her back inside then hid in a room.

    Alicia: No! No! No! Why did you bring me back here? Why did you do that? I know you're in there! Why won't you just say something? Alright. If you're not gonna talk, then listen. My mom died saving me. Saving Nick, saving everyone. Because you led Mel and Ennis to the place we built. Because you lied to us. And then you shot my brother. And I watched him bleed to death. And I... I couldn't do anything but watch him die. Watch him realize he was going to die. And it didn't happen fast. He was aware. He was in pain. He knew you did it. He knew the person he tried to save killed him. And maybe that made him feel like his life didn't mean anything. I can't send you out there! But if you're in this house with me, then I'll probably kill you. I don't know if I want to kill you. I just know I probably will. I'm trying to be like my mom. I'm trying to believe what she believed, do what she did. Because that's all I have left of her. That's the only thing that keeps her alive. If I kill... If I kill you... I won't let you take that away from me again. You may be a kid, Charlie. But you know what you did. And that makes you garbage. It makes you a waste of a person. Worse than something stumbling around out there tearing into people. See, I hope you live to a ripe old age so you have to remember what you did. What you did, who you are... And how you can never, ever... make up for it.

    Later Charlie comes out but Alicia finds the gun in her pocket

    Alicia: Is this the same gun you... I told you, you couldn't be here. I told you I didn't want to be around you. Did you come here to kill me? Is that it? Get me before I could get you?

    Charlie shakes her head no

    Alicia: You expect me to believe that? Get out of here. Go.

    Charlie tries to end her life but Alicia stops her

    Charlie: I'm sorry. I'm trying.

    Alicia: Charlie! Alicia shows the gun This wasn't for me, was it? It was for you. Everyone's telling me all the reasons to keep going. But I think you and I both know that's not the deal. There are no good reasons. I think you might've had the right idea. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna let you do it.

    Charlie: Why did you save me? Was it because you wanted me to live with it? What I did?

    Alicia: Idk. But yeah, you're gonna have to live with it. You don't get off the hook that easy. What did you think I was gonna say? I saved you because I see something in you? Because I forgive you for what you did to my family? I'm not gonna say that. It's not true. I can't help you. So whatever it is you're looking for, you're not gonna get it. Not from me. You have to live with what you've done. Just like I have. Even if all that's waiting for you on the other end is being out on that porch just like them. points at corpses
