First he took Daryl prisoner.

Then it looked like he and Daryl were going to team up.

Then he stole all of Daryls stuff.

Then he had his wife taken away and half his face burned off.

Then he had his manhood munched on by Eugene.

Then… you know what?

You get the point.

And the point is the dude has been through some stuff.

But what does that mean going forward into season 8 (which premieres Oct. 22 on AMC)?

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: So how is Dwight as we pick things up here in season 8?

Hes in between two islands and every move that he makes, he has to be extremely careful.

Hes on a personal battle to seek justice for himself and others.

The angel on his left shoulder is talking a little louder now than the devil on his right.

Hes done some bad things and hes trying to bring justice back for himself.

I think thats kind of a good summation of where hes at right now.

But again, right now hes kind of in his own universe at this point.

What are his thoughts on Daryl now because their relationship is so fascinating.

Daryl was also first there when you meet Dwight and hes sort of this mirror to his past.

Its a difficult thing because they despise each other.

Its complicated out here in the post-apocalyptic world, man.

Its kind of disheartening to me because Im like F!

Maybe I didnt do my job good enough.

Its a big move to do that in this world.

But I do think theyre pulling for him.

Slowly but surely, theyre starting to grasp or understand this guy a little better, which is nice.

Im not just popping behind trees and doing that anymore.
