Rick, who appears to have duties culling walkers, leans against a brick wall with a bloodied face. As the scene transitions to a shot of him holding a dead cellphone with Michonne's face carved on the screen, he declares, "I have to keep trying. I won't stop, I'm getting there. I'm getting home."

As for Michonne, she continues her search, coming across abandoned cruise ships and encountering kindred spirits along the way. "It's been so long," she cries.

Like Rick, Michonne possesses a matching smart phone with an engraving of two people and his name alongside a Japanese inscription. As she holds up her device, one of her travel companions translates, "You know what it says, the Japanese? Believe a little longer."

In addition to the lovers' quest to reunite, the trailer also teases Rick's struggle with the Civic Republic Military which he's seemingly forced to join.

“Why do you even think I'm going to go along with all of this?” he exclaims to CRM Leaser Major General Beale (Terry O'Quinn). Over scenes of soldiers and battle artillery that prove his military strength, Beale answers, "Because everything will change."

Elsewhere Michonne deals with her own set of problems. When a bomb of yellow gas detonates in an abandoned city, she screams, "Scatter!" before the fumes can engulf her and her companions.

Tension between Rick and Beale seem to bubble over when Rick screams, "This isn't everything! You don’t get to choose for the world, you don't get to choose for me!”

As the trailer ends with scenes of car chases, helicopters shooting missiles into buildings and more slaughtered zombies, Rick concludes ominously, "This broken world shall be put together."
