Rick’s eyes. The calm is gone. The survivalist is back. But now, he’s terrified not of the dead—but of the living he must protect from the poison inside his own walls.

The screen is black. We hear soft rain and the squeak of a rocking chair. FADE IN: A pair of weathered hands hovering over a small, brown seed. The hands push the seed into a mound of dark, rich soil. The camera pulls back to reveal RICK GRIMES. He looks older, thinner. His beard is full, but his eyes are calm. He wears a worn flannel shirt, sleeves rolled up, revealing calloused hands. He’s not a sheriff anymore. He’s a farmer. Behind him, the prison yard is transformed. Raised garden beds overflow with tomatoes, cucumbers, and corn. Chickens peck in a wire coop. Children—Lizzie, Mika, and a few new faces—run between the fences, laughing. A pig snorts. Rick looks at it with a soft, almost paternal smile. TITLE CARD: THIRTY DAYS WITHOUT AN ACCIDENT The Walking Dead Season 4 - Episode 1
