• Hershel Greene : Just tell us what this is. Please.

  The Governor : It isn't personal.

  Hershel Greene : Than what is it?

  The Governor : Michonne, I want you to know... Penny, my daughter, she was dead. I know that now. Now, I don't want to hurt you. I don't want to hurt anyone. I need the prison, that's it. There are people I need to keep alive. You two are gonna help me take it. No one needs to die.

  Michonne : I'm gonna kill you.

  The Governor : No, you won't.

  Michonne : I'm gonna take my...

  Hershel Greene : Stop it. You want the prison?

  The Governor : Yeah. And I will take it as peacefully as I can.

  Hershel Greene : Governor...

  The Governor : Don't call me that.

  Hershel Greene : Your people, our people, we can find away to live together. These people you need to keep alive, do you love them?

  The Governor : You're a good man, Hershel. A better man than Rick.

  Hershel Greene : Everything you said, the way you've said it, you've changed. So has Rick.

  The Governor : The two of us will never be able to live together. Michonne and I, we'll never be able to live together.

  Hershel Greene : We'll find a way.

  The Governor : I found a way! I'm trying hard. There's all kinds of ways I could do this. This way, you get to live and I get to be...

  Hershel Greene : You say you want to take this prison as peacefully as possible. That means you'd be willing to hurt people to get it. My daughters would be there. That's who you'd be hurting. If you understand what it's like to have a daughter, then how could you threaten to kill someone else's?

  The Governor : Because they aren't mine.

• Rick Grimes : [points to Tara]  You. You in the ponytails. Is this what you want? Is this what any one of you want?

  Mitch Dolgen : What we want is what you got. Period. Time for you to leave, asshole.

  Rick Grimes : Look, I've fought him before. And after, we took in his old friends. They've become leaders in what we have here. Now you put down your weapons, walk through those gates... you're one of us. We let go of all of it, and nobody dies. Everyone who's alive right now. Everyone's who's made it this far. We've all done the worst kinds of things just to stay alive. But we can still come back. We're not too far gone. We get to come back. I know... we all can change.

  The Governor : Liar.

• The Governor : Rick! Come down here. We need to talk.

  Rick Grimes : It's not up to me. There's a council now. They run this place.

  The Governor : Is Hershel on the council? What about Michonne? She on the council, too?

  Rick Grimes : I don't make decisions anymore.

  The Governor : You're making the decisions today, Rick. Come down here. Let's have that talk.
