Has the cost of killing become too much for Carol to handle?
Or can she handle the bloodshed enough to escape her captors?
He suggests they give up Carol and Maggie for their man and their lives.

With the words Killing Floor stamped on the ground, Carol and Maggie find themselves in a Saviors safehouse.
This house is anything but safe, with walkers having infested the place since anyone last inhabited it.
While doing so the Saviors mistake Carols little show as signs of weakness.
But perhaps the worst among them is the solitary man, who Carol shot in the arm.
The pain is worsening, and their scout crew is still 30 minutes out.
He wants to kill Carol, or at the very least have her pay an arm for an arm.
NEXT: Time to hatch an escape plan.
They want answers from their two captives, but so too does Carol.
He needed to be stopped.
And Carol receives some information she likely didnt expect.
But Paula, no, shes not weak.
Paula asks if Carol will be the one to kill her.
I hope not, Carol says in perhaps her most honest moment since shes been held prisoner.
Largely unfazed, Paula radios Rick (who radioed earlier) to make the trade.
She agrees to it and plans to meet in a nearby field in 10 minutes.
The call worries her, though.
Fleeing the room, she eventually finds Maggie, who has also been left alone.
They have to finish this.
They have to kill these Saviors.
So they hatch a plan.
He bleeds out, but he was already dead and is now beginning to turn.
NEXT: Has killing become too much for Carol to handle?
Paula appears, gun blazing, and Carol threatens her with return fire.
She baits Carol, who just keeps begging Paula to run so she doesnt have to kill her.
She slashes at Maggies stomach as the two tussle, until Carol shoots her dead at point blank range.
Conveniently, Paulas men radio in that theyre approaching as her screams echo throughout the base.
And so Carol and Maggie hatch one final plan.
It also gives them a brief respite as Carol considers the blood she has shed.
Maggie tells her not to worry because whats done is done.
Its best not to think about it, especially as they have a new task at hand.
The door slightly ajar, the two monitor these newcomers movements as Carol lights up a cigarette.
And faced with the death of his fellow Saviors, Rick asks their captive Primo to talk.
