![]() ![]() Of course, one wonders why it took four previous armed conflicts between the Saviors and the Alexandrians to get to this point, considering the Saviors seems to have unlimited numbers and can somehow magically keep tabs on a single RV driving around the country side, but the obvious answer seems to be that Negan couldn’t show up until the finale, so everyone had to vamp. If this seems like a gratuitous show of power on the part of the Saviors, that at least seems to be the point, since they’re determined to break the Ricketeers’ spirit. At least this show of manpower makes Rick and the others finally realize, hey, there might be a lot more Saviors than they thought! (Here’s some zombies chained together! Here’s an entire wall of logs!) To say this gets tedious very quickly is an understatement. ![]() It’s also determined to draw the non-tension out for as long as possible, so we get a 90-minute slog where Rick and the others drive around in an RV, trying to get Maggie to the Hilltop doctor, only to find all the roads barred by increasingly unlikely Savior blockades. ![]() From Rick assuring Maggie that the Ricketeers can do anything as long as they’re all together, to a Savior literally asking Rick if today might be the last day on Earth for someone he loves, the episode lays it on nice and thick. So here we are at the finale at last, and if it wasn’t obvious from last week’s “next time on,” the episode itself makes it quite clear that someone is going to die.

It’s a huge moment for the comics, and the show has been treating it as such, considering how it’s given most of the cast an intense case of the stupids in order to draw out the conflict between the Alexandrians and the Saviors to the finale. Which means yes, I know when Negan first shows up in the comic, he kills a major character with a barbwire baseball bat. Did he commit suicide or did The Saviors do that to him?Ģ0) The Saviors shooting at The Group’s feet rather than at them is the same thing the Termites did to Rick, Daryl, Michonne, and Carl in the season four finale, “A”.Ģ1) The fact The Saviors didn’t shoot the RV is further proof of their intent to corral Rick and company, something Rick himself observes later on.Confession time: wWhile I never read a “Walking Dead” comic, I do know about some major events that have happened in them.
