Attack of the swamp walkers
The Saviors are out in full force.
Turns out, theyre literally right on top of them and didnt even know it.
Meanwhile, Carson and Gabriel are lost.

The good father, going blind from the virus attacking his system, cant read the map properly.
Let God be their guide.
Carson, however, isnt so eager to let Jesus take the wheel just yet.
Gabriel claims this could be their salvation.
(Spoiler: It may seem that way, but its not.
I mean, Gabriels blind, but Carson has two eyes, right?)
At Hilltop, the death of Gavin still weighs on Morgan and Henry.
The child sits by the Savior pen, trying to figure out which one of them killed his brother.
Morgan is contemplating telling him, until Carol comes up to relieve them of watch duty.
Good news for the Saviors, since the kid is creeping them out.
The cabin Gabriel and Carson find is a radio post.
It seems to have been for one lonely resident who was radioing hopeful messages into the void.
(According to the radio log, he never got a signal.)
Just another thing were gonna ignore at this juncture.
Shes probably still out there.
Maggies conundrum with the Saviors is only getting worse.
The nice one a.k.a.
But food and Maggies patience are coming to an end, so thats a no for now.
And its a hard no for Gregory.
(Recap continues on the next page)
By this point, Daryl & Co. have entered the swamp.
Yes, thank god, this seems like an opportunity for a real tension-building walker battle.
There are only so many episodes of talking and walking that I can take.
Just kidding it isnt that suspenseful.
One walker pops up to attack Rosita, but she feels it emerge when she steps on it.
The others present themselves to Daryl and Siddiq and dont move from their places as the pair go in.
We dont get to see them cut them down either.
Leaving the others in the group alone, she marches Dwight at gunpoint while he kills the walker stragglers.
He apologizes for killing Denise, which catches Tara off guard.
Carson and Gabriels good luck is running out.
They all nod their heads as they listen like,Yup, yup, thats totally reasonable.
He then asks about Laura, the Savior who witnessed his betrayal, and whaddya know?!
no one has seen her.
So problem solved for the time being!
Dwight can go back to the Saviors and not get killed.
Were left with Negan formulating a new plan of attack.
If something from them gets in you, you die, you join the club, he says.
Cutting open a walker strung up on his gate, he coats Lucille in its blood.
Does this mean next week will actually bring more action, more…anything?
There are five more episodes left, so itll probably be strung out over three of them.
