The Walking Dead, Season 8, Episode 8




So, this episode begins with Negan and Eugene having a chat about getting rid of the walkers that are outside.  Negan agrees with Eugene's suggestion that they use their bullets to clear the horde. It works well and then Negan is ready to move on to his next plan. Rick  gets out of his prison when he is rescued by Carol and Jerry. The three of them head off to tell the others what is happening. Eugene lets Gabriel go back to the Hilltop even though he is really sick.


Maggie is horrified when Simon turns up at the Hilltop with Jerry, who he has captured. He wants his men in return for him. Maggie has to agree but Simon shoots a resident anyway. Maggie is annoyed and she kills one of the prisoners. In the Kingdom, the Saviours are telling people that they will be used to build up the Sanctuary again. Ezekiel doesn't want this so he creates a diversion so that his people can escape. He locks himself into the Kingdom with the Saviours. Carol and Morgan see this.



Negan and his crew arrive at Alexandria and pronounce that it is theirs now. Carl tries to bargain with Negan and this allows the residents to crawl into the sewers and escape. Daryl has set up a trap and some of the Saviours get caught in it. On of them sees Dwight on the other side and they escape to tell negan that Dwight has switched sides. Negan and his men bomb the place and they  break inside Alexandria. Rick arrives back and he finds the place smoking. He goes to look for Carl and Judith but he finds Negan waiting for him. There is a fight. Rick has to escape when he gets badly hurt. He goes into the sewers where Michonne and Carl are. He and Michonne are horrified when Carl reveals that he has been bitten by a walker.

This was a good episode, with plenty of action. The ending was sad when it was revealed that Carl will be leaving the group. I was surprised that they killed off such a main character. Anyway, this was a decent episode.
