Sunday’s episode of “TWD” would’ve been a perfect backdoor pilot for the former Carol and Daryl spin-off. Jace Downs/AMC Warning: There are spoilers ahead for season 11, episode 21 of “The Walking Dead,” “Outpost 22. ” Insider breaks down some small details you may have missed on Sunday’s episode.
Sunday’s episode may have hinted at the jumping-off point for two of the “TWD” spin-offs. Sunday’s episode appeared to give us a potential setup for the Maggie and Negan “TWD” spin-off. Did Sunday’s episode offer hints of how Negan and Maggie wind up on a spin-off together?Peter Kramer/AMCOn Sunday’s episode, we learn that Maggie has been separated from her son, Hershel.
Later, Negan gets separated from his wife, Annie, who gets transported to a nameless Commonwealth work site. We’ve known Maggie and Negan are teaming up in a spin-off premiering next spring. Fans have noticed that neither Hershel nor Annie have been seen in promotional materials for the series.
Perhaps the former enemies unite on the road in order to reconnect with their loved ones. While Maggie doesn’t care for Negan, who killed her husband Glenn, we know she has a soft spot for Annie, who’s pregnant. Sunday’s episode also may have dropped a hint about Daryl’s spin-off.
Is Daryl going to wind up getting a “designation two” label by the end of the show?Jace Downs/AMCConnie was being transported to an unknown location after being labeled “designation two. “A Commonwealth soldier told Daryl he only knew rumors about designation two, saying, “They’re taken somewhere far away. They’re never seen again.
“We know Daryl will mysteriously wind up in France on his “TWD” spin-off. Perhaps he’ll wind up heading wherever Connie was originally supposed to go. Gabriel tells a Commonwealth soldier that “fear can make us do things that bring shame,” channeling his dark entry onto the series.
Gabriel was likely referencing his dark past while reaching out to a Commonwealth soldier. AMC, Gene Page/AMCGabriel was likely referencing himself with that statement. When we first met Gabriel on season five, we learned he cowardly locked his congregation out of his church in order to survive.
They were all killed by the undead. It was definitely Gabriel’s lowest moment. Ezekiel hasn’t forgotten that Negan’s group slaughtered his people, calling out his many transgressions.
Ezekiel lets Negan know how he really feels about him on Sunday’s episode. Jace Downs/AMCSunday’s episode explains in one line of dialogue why we’ve never seen Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Khary Payton’s characters interact since the end of the war against the Saviors. Ezekiel reveals he never forgave Negan for the hell he put their groups through on seasons seven and eight.
In a shocking moment, Zeke called out Negan’s heinous misdeeds. “I stayed away from you for years for a reason,” Ezekiel said. “Melting people’s faces with irons? Coercing women into marrying you? Slaughtering my people? That shit I have not forgotten.
Nobody has. “In addition to the Dwight reference about melting people’s faces, it’s the first time anyone has really chewed Negan out for his controversial treatment of women on the show. As a reminder, Negan had a harem of women he forced to marry him if they wanted their families to survive.
Ezekiel also holds anger toward Negan because, as he mentioned, Negan’s Saviors brutally gunned down many of Ezekiel’s friends and followers. Zeke barely made it out alive. Both Zeke and Negan were leaders of very different communities.
It’s likely difficult for Ezekiel, who ruled as a fair and just leader of the Kingdom community, to respect and see eye to eye with a leader like Negan who ruled with fear and submission. Maggie’s speech at the end of the episode has serious Rick vibes. Maggie channels Rick on Sunday’s episode.
AMC, composite by Kirsten Acuna/InsiderAt the episode’s end, Maggie lights a torch under Daryl, Carol, Connie, and the rest of the group when they learn that the Commonwealth is foolishly holding their friends prisoner at their old stomping grounds. “Milton has underestimated us since day one. We are gonna get our kids, take back our home, and make it right.
And Pamela’s never going to see it coming,” Maggie tells the group. This entire scene mirrors the energy of the season four finale’s final moments. Trapped in a train car by the Terminus cannibals, Rick Grimes rallies together the survivors with one of the show’s most memorable line drops when he says, “They’re gonna feel pretty stupid when they find out.
. . they’re fucking with the wrong people.
“Both Maggie and Daryl were present for that season four speech. It’s fitting that one of the two leads the charge against the Commonwealth with a moment that’s reminiscent of another time they were underestimated. Read the original article on Insider.
