The Walking Dead Season 10 Episode 5 Review

Warning: The following contains spoilers for Sun'due south The Walking Expressionless . If you read on, you may weep.

And (some of) yous thought yous were Negan'southward biggest fan! Sunday's episode of The Walking Dead revealed that the Saviors' erstwhile leader has for some time had a secret admirer who'south even more ardent near him than he himself has always been. "What Information technology E'er Is" as well brought Daryl and Connie a baby stride closer to the buss nosotros all expect is coming, shed new low-cal on the origins of Yumiko and Magna'southward relationship and began pounding nails into the bury of a beloved hero. Which i? Proceed reading.

'I Tin can'T SAY THAT I Recall RATING WALKERS ON HOTNESS' | Subsequently the hour began with an uncommonly well-directed and -edited prologue in which Kelly'south worsening hearing loss put her at hazard of becoming Walker Chow, we cut to a runaway Negan every bit he was approached past Brandon. "Who's that?" you lot ask. Proficient question. In the comics, he was Earl and Tammy Rose'south obnoxious son, but here, he seemed to be the obnoxious offspring of Saviors; in any case, he was obnoxious and had manifestly had long idolized the reformed (or at least reforming) bad guy. And he was dying — foreshadowing! — to ingratiate himself with his anti-hero. Before taking off after Negan, Brandon had fifty-fifty swiped his iconic leather jacket and a bat that he presently wrapped in barbed wire. (I don't retrieve that was the original Lucille, right?)

Almost every bit rapidly as I doubtable viewers did, Negan tired of his sycophant's visitor (even though rating walkers on their hotness seemed like a pretty hilarious time-killer). The pair had just happened upon a site that Brandon thought would brand a rad new Sanctuary when they heard screams. Leaping into action, Negan saved a woman named Amelia and her son Milo from walkers. Alone with Glenn and Abraham's murderer, Brandon suggested that they bump off the duo and search for the stash of weapons that he somehow imagined that they had. In response, Negan suggested that Brandon head on back to Alexandria. But… but… what would he tell them? Where would he say he'd been? "I don't give a s—," Negan replied, "merely every bit long as I don't take to meet that gluey, creepy-ass face of yours e'er again." And they say breaking up is hard to do!

'SEEMS AS GOOD A Time AS Any TO Principal THE PUEBLO Fine art OF Basket-WEAVING' | At Hilltop, the master concerns of the twenty-four hour period were fixing the wall (Eugene), bitching about "twiddling our thumbs" instead of attacking the Whisperers (Earl, starring in a one-geezer production of Grumpy Onetime Men) and figuring out who kept stealing supplies. When Yumiko turned for answers to Magna, who'd been guarding the cellar during the concluding heist, her girlfriend responded by briefly mumbling, then cranking up the record player. Clearly, they had washed no kissing since their tiff, much less kissing and making upwards. After Daryl, Dog and Siddiq arrived following a search for Negan, Hilltop'southward hunters returned home — minus Kelly. So off Daryl, Dog and Connie went to find her.

When Connie beat herself upwardly over her sister'due south disappearance, Daryl stopped their search — look, what? — to tell her about the time he'd saved Merle during a drunk-fishing mishap. The story made Connie laugh, but um, final nosotros had seen, a walker had been nigh to tap Kelly on the shoulder. Priorities, people! After the trio were joined by Magna, who apparently was contemplating taking a vow of silence, Dog led them to Kelly — and the stolen supplies. Turned out, she and Magna had been stocking upwardly (I reckoned in example things went due south). Erm, let's tell everybody that they only found the supplies rather than stole them, Connie suggested to Daryl. Back at Hilltop, Ezekiel reluctantly showed Siddiq that he had a tumor the size of a golf brawl and remarked on the irony that, before the end of the world, thyroid cancer had had a 98-percent survival rate. "At present nosotros both know what information technology means."

'A GUARDIAN TAKEN IS ANOTHER LOST' | While Aaron was out, presumably looking for Negan, he spied Gamma killing a walker, spilling its guts and pushing its remains into a creek. I thought maybe she was trying to poison our protagonists' h2o supply, merely when she returned to Whisperers HQ, we learned that she was actually building a dam of corpses, per Alpha'south orders. She'd but come up back for 1 more guardian. (Um, she couldn't have constitute one in the woods? Kelly couldn't seem to avoid 'em!) Overhearing, a random Whisperer suggested that Blastoff finish dropping trees and declaring borders, and instead unleash the horde. This was a jumbo mistake on his part. Blastoff put his motion to a vote, and when he received no support whatsoever, she murdered him. "That'south democracy for you," she quipped before telling Gamma that she could take him. Subsequently all, "you said you wanted another guardian."

When Gamma returned to dam-making with a savour that hinted at how damaged and disturbed she was, she wound upwards cut her hand. Immediately, Aaron threw her a bar of soap and bandages, and tried (futilely) to initiate a conversation. Returning to the Whisperers' camp, Gamma filled in Alpha, who wondered aloud whether "the homo with the metal arm" might be of use, should her 3rd in command "article of clothing a new mask." Meanwhile, Negan gave Milo an elaborate explanation of what nut-tapping was and offered to testify him and his mom to Hilltop. Or as shut to it as he dared get, at least. Alas, by the fourth dimension he returned from gathering firewood, Amelia and Milo had been slaughtered past Brandon, who'd thought Negan had told him to become lost as a examination. In a fury, Negan picked up a rock and bashed Brandon'due south obnoxious skull in. He then picked upwardly his old jacket and barbed-wire-covered bat and stalked off.

'I THINK YOU SHOULD FIND Some other Place TO SLEEP' | After Daryl & Co. returned to Hilltop with Kelly and the supplies, Yumiko and Magna had another argument, this fourth dimension over the former'due south perceived suspicion that the latter was the thief (which — am I mistaken? — she and Kelly were). "For thirteen years, that'south how you've looked at me," Magna said. On the contrary, Yumiko had idea when she met her former client that Magna was an innocent person who was mad at everyone because she'd never had anyone to trust. In plow, Magna said some things that made information technology sound like she'd killed a human being who'd abused (or maybe murdered?) her young cousin. So they'd both killed, she added. Withal Yumiko however gave her that await. At a vague impasse, Miko suggested that her girlfriend crash elsewhere that evening.

Nearby, before Daryl took off for Alexandria with Siddiq and Dog, Connie apologized for asking him to lie for Kelly and Magna. "Family unit," she signed. When he indicated that he understood, she signed that the 2 of them were family, likewise. On the radio with Dante, Siddiq learned that Rosita had caught a problems, nothing serious. When Siddiq asked Dante to put Ballad on, Ezekiel took his place backside the mic but chickened out earlier speaking with his erstwhile queen. Finally, Negan crossed into Whisperers territory and began dispatching guardians in hopes of attracting the skin-wearers that Amelia had chosen "hissers." When he came confront to gnarly face with Beta, he remarked, "All correct, you big-ass freak, allow'southward do this." Question was, what was "this"? So, what did you think of "What It Ever Is"? Were you surprised by Ezekiel's prognosis? Relieved that Negan offed Brandon? Bummed that "Donnie" are all the same dancing effectually their feelings?
