The Walking Dead

Previously on AMC's "The Walking Dead"...

I knew that I could count on you

to deliver my plan to Rick.

He's gonna lead them

directly into the line of fire.

We will change Savior history.

I just wanted to make it

so that the bullets didn't work.

You have to find peace with Negan.

Show everyone that they can be safe again without killing.

Winning is about killing every last one of you.

I remember.

Saw she was up, so...

How'd itappen?

Please tell me.

My mother's dead.

She was bit.

I had to watch her die.

Not long ago.

And she believed people, their... their souls...

were trapped in the bodies of the monsters...

that killing the dead

lets the living move on into an afterlife.

Carl was taking me back to your community,

and I told him what my mother believed.

And we saw a few of the dead.

He wanted to honor her.

I think he was trying to show me that I could trust him.

That's how it happened.

He died paying respects

to a woman he never knew.

But it was dangerous.

It was dangerous, and I didn't think about that.

I should've.

But all that's left of the people we lose,

what was theirs...

are their ideas.

Thank you.

We're gonna beat 'em today.

We are.

And when we do, will you come back to the Kingdom?

I won't run away again.

Maybe.

How you doin', boss?

If this morning is to be our last,

it will be a fine morning, indeed.

This isn't the last of shit.

It could be for some of our ranks.

I accept that.

I'm not accepting shit.

It's not simple acceptance or pessimism, no.

Not that.

But to justify everything we've lost,

we must risk losing everything.

We're not losing shit...

Jerry.

All right.

We'll stick to this road, keep to the trees,

we'll get there quicker.

Plus, we can keep an eye on the road that way.

Yeah, if they're planning anything, we'll see it.

You think you can trust Gregory?

What he told us?

I locked him up inside the house.

He knew I wouldn't let him walk around free.

He knew he was coming back to that.

He doesn't believe in anything except himself,

and he'd have to believe in the Saviors a whole lot

to send us into a trap

and think it would work out for him.

Unless Dwight didn't tell him.

That asshole could be setting us up.

Morgan.

Morgan, what is it?

They're gone.

They're doing something.

They were, uh...

They were gone... him.

They were coming in.

I asked Maggie if we could clear the walkers from the wall.

We... drew them away so we wouldn't

have to worry about 'em when we rolled out.

He did.

Let's keep gettin' ready, everyone.

First team's going in 20.

He said when we roll out.

You and your people aren't coming.

You can be here.

But you're not us.

As long as we got that straight.

Maybe you shouldn't come with us.

I have to.

You've done plenty.

I have to.

- Morgan... - Rick.

I have to. I have t-to...

It's not me.

It's everybody else, and I'm gonna keep 'em alive.

I'm gonna keep Henry from... f...

We...

We are worse than we were... me and you.

We are.

Giving your word to those men back at the bar.

I mean, it's what it took, yeah, but...

But that was something else.

That was something wrong for you.

And we crossed into it because... because...

we've both lost everything, everything good.

What...

What does it matter if we spend whatever's left

on keeping people alive?

Because we haven't lost everything.

- Not yet. - We have.

And we can't go back.

So let's just finish this.

Sucks, don't it, D?

I mean, even with that disgusting,

knotted cheese on the side of your face,

you once had these people's respect.

But now?

Well, now you don't have a damn thing.

Load him up.

There's my bullet maker.

Attaché in tow

and order fulfilled PDQ, as promised.

Every munition personally quality-controlled

by yours truly.

Sleep be damned and efforts be tripled,

the deed is done.

Take yourself a tester.

Huh.

Regina laid out the plan for you, right?

That's why I requested the ride-along.

Depending on the terrain and timing,

the pump and priming,

I believe we should attempt a one-fell-swooper.

A firing line that would minimize chaos opportunity

and alpha-to-omega this thing in less than 10.

Are you sure that's something you want to see?

More of a "need to" thing.

Look at you.

Let's load up, roll out!

Lance, Duke... Boylan Road.

Map will show you where I'll be if there's trouble.

No, we got this one locked down, Jefe.

Damn straight you do.

Idiots.

Why don't you tag along, Gabey?

It's a nice drive.

I got some shit that I want to confess.

Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.

Probably.

Any second now.

Now, those men I sent out down there on that road

setting up that roadblock with the dead

not knowing they're joining their cold asses any second.

Because Rick and his band of pricks,

they're gonna hit them hard.

You know, I don't enjoy sacrificing my own people.

You know that, right?

I mean, those guys back there, they came up with Simon.

Some of us had to take one for the team,

it may as well be them.

I still don't understand.

Ricky was slipped some intel,

make him think he can get the jump on me.

The thing is, it came from a less-than-reliable source,

so if I were him, I'd be scouting ahead.

Taking out that little road-block crew

is gonna make Rick think he's got the real story,

where I'll really be.

They'll come to get me.

But, see, that is the trap.

And that is how we will get them.

They're going to find a map with the time and place I'll be

and they're gonna believe it.

Because they will have killed all those poor bastards.

Hey, hey, hey! I give up!

I give... I'm done!

Aah!

Dude! That was messed up.

I mean, Jesus.

Unh! Aah!

You don't die, right?

Man...

You oughta try it sometime.

Listen...

You don't think you can kill your way out of this,

seeing everybody else go, do you?

Huh?

'Cause let me tell you...

not gonna happen.

Morgan?

Are you with us?

Good people, found something on our quarry.

What is it?

A list and another map.

And what appear to be other facts.

They're lining up Saviors on the Old Mill Road.

That's where Negan will be.
