We’re right down to the final 3 weeks of The Walking Dead‘s seventh season — and in line with the occasions of the episode that aired Sunday, March 19, the subsequent two weeks are going to be as action-packed and probably devastating as the rest we’ve observed from the AMC drama.
In the newest episode, titled “The Other Side,” a surprise discuss with from the Saviors at the Hilltop threw a hasty plot into motion, as two survivors went rogue and attempted to take out Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) on my own. But issues didn’t pass consistent with plan in a wide variety of ways, and now, there’s no telling what is going to happen next or who will live to tell the tale.
Happenings at the Hilltop
Because so much display screen time in weeks previous was once spent on the thrilling, prolonged struggle for possession of that junkyard cat statue, the latest goings-on at the Hilltop have been conveyed by the use of montage. The short of it: Maggie (Lauren Cohan) used to be laborious at paintings and sporting a healthy, growing fetus; Enid (Katelyn Nacon) has learned to make artfully organized fruit plates; Daryl (Norman Reedus) sulked a lot and Jesus (Tom Payne) casually got here out as gay, y’know, only for the record.
That caught us up to the provide, and a wonder discuss with from the Saviors that despatched Maggie and Daryl scurrying for a hiding spot in the root cellar — maintaining in thoughts that if both of them is found, they’ll be in a wide variety of hassle. As it turned out, the Saviors were there for any other function: Having, erm, by accident thrown their physician into a bellows remaining week (whoopsie!), they needed a alternative doctor. But a near-miss down in the cellar made for a pivotal moment between Maggie and Daryl, who has been ate up through guilt over Glenn’s death since this season’s first episode. And no longer best did Mags reassure Daryl that she didn’t blame him, she gave him a way of function: “We must win,” she stated. “Help me win.”
Suicide Girls
Urgh, that awkward second when you are on a two-person suicide squad along with your lifeless boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend. After a hasty go out from the Hilltop, Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) and Rosita (Christian Serratos) set off together to take out Negan — simplest Rosita’s persisted saltiness over her breakup with Abraham (Michael Cudlitz) was actually killing the staff spirit.
But Sasha, bless her, kept making an attempt, till she managed to convince Rosita to open up about her previous. Turns out, all her bomb-defusing, gun-slinging, knot-tying survival abilities had been picked up from a litany of former boyfriends who she’d use and then lose once she’d discovered all she may from them; type of like a zombie apocalypse version of leaning in. The revelation resulted in a bonding second over their shared love and respect for Abraham, and ohmigod, did those two just grow to be absolute best buddies? Maybe not exactly, nevertheless it used to be certainly a turning point in their relationship … or what used to be left of it, anyway.
A Change of Plans
While staking out the Saviors’ compound, Rosita and Sasha had noticed Eugene (Josh McDermitt) ordering other folks round down below and assumed that he used to be “playing some attitude,” which turned out to be more or less 1,000 p.c more good thing about the doubt than Eugene deserved. When the women risked dying to bust their comrade out, he sniveled, “I didn’t ask you to return here!” and fled again inside to cry and pet the jar of pickles that he’s nicknamed “my precious,” almost certainly as a result of he is the worst.
And that used to be most effective the first nasty marvel. Back in the backyard, Sasha slipped through the fence and then closed it, locking herself in and Rosita out — because sometime during their bonding sesh, Sasha had determined that the other woman was once unquestionably not expendable. And whilst Sasha stormed the building, weapons blazing, Rosita may do not anything but run … directly into the path of a shadowy determine toting a crossbow.
Is Rosita about to get the showdown she’s been aching for? Or has Daryl confirmed up to lend a hand her save the day? We’ll know subsequent week. In the interim, fingers crossed that Sasha isn’t staring down the industry finish of Negan’s baseball bat right now.
