A bottle of water doesn't seem like the type of thing someone would be able to drug and she doesn't know why anyone would want to drug Nate anyway, not here in Darrow. But his pupils are just so big and he's seeing things that aren't really here and Beth realizes with a start that she's frightened. Really frightened. This isn't the kind of fear that comes with walkers, the cold sort of calming fear that had come over her when she had been trying to get out of Grady. This is something else entirely, something bigger than that.

She's afraid for Nate. Afraid what might have been done to him, afraid of what he's seeing. Mostly afraid she won't know what to do in order to stop it.

"Should I call an ambulance for you?" she asks. "If I call one, they're... they're not gonna see your brother either. They're gonna want to take you." She doesn't ask if he's okay with that, she knows he won't be, but she doesn't know what else to do. Feeling helpless isn't something Beth is used to and she doesn't like it. She likes knowing how to help, how to take control, and right now she's lost.
