For a second there, I thought maybe we had Alpha all wrong.
She even gave their weapons back and kindly pointed them to the way home.
But Alpha proves shes even more deranged and dangerous than anyone thought.
Its not like there werent plenty of clues along the way that something wicked was this way coming.
A rather ominous sign: nearby in the dirt lies a bloody H necklace.
The Faire finally kicks off with, of course, a Zeke speech.
Jerry wanted to call this thing the First Annual Intercommunity Reunification (a.k.a.
FAIR; good one, Jerry!)
but Zeke opted for the rather yawn-inducing Fair of New Beginning.
The next order of business is Michonne calling a meeting of the leaders to deal with Lydias return.
Again, theres no way this picturesque scene doesnt end in horror.
I am officially ready for a full hour of Daryl and Connie alone.
If you only knew, King.
If you only knew.
Lydia could have screamed for help and prevented the massacre that was to follow.
Instead, she lets Alpha go, and Momma A will later tell Daryl that shesoverher kid.
My daw-dah isnt a concern anymoah, Alpha says.
She nevah lived up to expectations.
She also talks shit about the alliance, calling it a joke.
Your communities are a shrine to a long-dead world.
My people, the Whisperers, we live as nature intended.
Alpha flexes hard by leading Daryl to a herd larger than any hes seen before.
Thats the Whisperer army, and if its steered toward the communities, theyre in big trouble.
Peace cant come this easily, right?
Alpha sets up a literal jaw-dropper.
The identity reveal of each chattering zombified head is excruciating.
Lets be honest I can live without that bunch.
Things get worse as we cut from the Faire to the crime scene.
Then comes a straight-up Brad-Pitt-in-Sevenmove with the final deadhead.
The King and Queen have lost their son.
Alden is single and the survivors have suffered a 50 percent decrease in semi-licensed physicians.
Hilltop has lost its third leader, counting Maggie but not counting the worthless Gregory.
(Could Daryl be the next in line?
Theyre running out of c-suite material, fast.)
Cant go back to movie night when your friends and loved ones were beheaded by your neighbors.
Let the Whisperers War begin.
