Maggie claims she’s there for justice, not revenge. I remember how much I broke you breaking open your husband’s head like I did,” taunts Negan. Negan looks at Maggie and says, “I remember you screaming in that clearing. The moment’s come and Maggie is face-to-face with Negan ( Jeffrey Dean Morgan). Michonne hands over the keys after a final warning that Maggie might not be able to live with herself after she kills Negan. Maggie gets emotional as she says she can’t keep living like this, and Michonne even tears up. Maggie has suffered a year and a half and refuses to suffer any longer. She tries to get Michonne to admit that if Negan butchered Rick in front of her and left her with a baby to raise alone she’d do the same thing. Maggie insists killing Negan would help start things over. She’s furious Michonne and Rick took away the only thing she wanted – getting to see Glenn’s murderer die.
She admits she’s not sure what Glenn would have wanted, but she never got to say goodbye. Michonne refuses to budge even though Maggie reminds her what Negan did. Maggie carries the crowbar as a weapon and demands Michonne get out of her way when she heads over to kill Negan. The calm is shattered by the surprise arrival of Maggie. Over at Alexandria, Judith and Michonne ( Danai Gurira) are going about their day like normal. Rick manages to get back on his horse who has, once again, remained bizarrely calm with all the walkers nearby. He breaks through a wall and barely escapes ahead of the front of the horde. Rick jolts awake in time to avoid the bite. Rick apologizes to Shane and then Shane screams, “Wake up!” in his face in the dream, just as a walker’s about to make a meal out of the slumbering, wounded Rick. He has to dig down deep to get this done. Shane warns Rick he has to remember when he was mean and dirty and return that way to finish this job now.
The talk does turn serious when they discuss Shane’s final days. It’s a good-natured reunion in which they call each other assholes, but out of love. “Good thing she ain’t got my ears, man,” laughs Shane. Shane asks after his baby girl, and they joke about whether Judith has Shane’s eyes or nose. He passes out again and has a dream in which he’s talking to Shane Walsh! (Welcome back Jon Bernthal, however temporarily!) They talk and Rick says he’s looking for his family. The cabin was the scene of a shootout and the walls are dotted with bullet holes. He stumbles into a cabin and rips apart sheets to try and stop the bleeding.
He and the horse pick up the pace and disappear from sight of the horde. Rick notices a mailbox up ahead and has a renewed burst of energy. Maggie’s current weapon of choice is the crowbar and she’s brutal wielding it. Meanwhile, Maggie ( Lauren Cohan) and Dianne (Kerry Cahill) continue their ride to Alexandria, taking out walkers as they come upon them. The walkers nearly reach him as he briefly passes out while scenes from his past flash through his head. He tries to talk himself into staying awake but he’s having a rough time of it. He warns her if it’s a trick, there will be consequences.īack with Rick, his white horse has turned a disturbing shade of pink from the blood. Stumbling away, he makes it to his very patient horse, climbs in the saddle, and sets off on a slow pace just ahead of the merging hordes.Įlsewhere, Jadis (Pollyanna McIntosh) attempts to start a car as the voice on the walkie talkie asks for her location and if she has the “A.” She gives her location and says she has the “A” and is ready for transport. The slowest bunch of walkers ever appearing in The Walking Dead can’t close the 20’ gap before Rick can muster the strength to remove the rebar. He finally takes his own advice and wakes up, still pierced by rebar with blood pouring from his wound. The very emotional season nine episode five opens with injured Rick telling an unconscious Rick in a hospital bed to wake up.
