What happened to the town?

Apologies if this has been brought up before. I'm not sure if I missed something or not, but what happened to the town with that church that was our goal in Amid the Ruins? It's like Arvo mentions the house and suddenly everyone forgot we were supposed to be heading for a town that was surely closer if Kenny had hopes of reaching it by nightfall or whatever he said, and was... well, a town. Surely something more promising than a single house with food, no? Was it ever even mentioned in the episode at all? It's like the two big choices were Wellington or Howe's, and I'm just thinking, "Well, how about that town we still haven't gone to check out? It may be safe and have people, like Wellington, and we know where it is, like Howe's."

Only explanation I can come up with is that they thought the house was a lot closer than it was, due to Arvo being vague, and then when Kenny got the truck started, he decided to head right to Wellington. Still, you'd think at one point someone would be like, "Hey, remember that place with the church which was the entire reason we came out here in the snow to begin with...?"

  • I know right? Come on Breckon... You're better than this.

  • Yeah, I guess I hadn't thought about it, but it doesn't make sense - like they changed the beginning of episode 5 for some reason, and cropped out the town. Maybe the house was a last minute thing they pulled off because their original idea didn't work out.
