A leaked description of The Walking Dead Season 7 premiere also revealed news about Daryl, and it doesn’t look good for the fan favorite character.
[WARNING: POTENTIAL THE WALKING DEAD SEASON 7 SPOILERS AHEAD]
The Spoiling Dead fan site published photos of a disheveled Daryl hanging out with Negan a few months ago, leading many to believe he might not be returning to Alexandria. The image of Daryl featured the actor wearing beige scrubs with a red “A” spray painted on the front. Well, now The Spoiling Dead has revealed alleged details about Daryl’s time with Negan, which includes an episode dedicated to the two characters. Check it out below.
Episode 7.2
Characters: Daryl, Negan, Dwight, Sherry, Saviors
Location: The majority of the episode takes place at the Sanctuary. There was also filming in different areas around Griffin for a car chase scene
Highlights:
• Seems to focus on the inner-workings of the Sanctuary
• Daryl is tortured as a prisoner. Might make a failed escape attempt.
• Dwight is involved in a chase scene where he and a few other Saviors chase down a rogue savior who has escaped the Sanctuary.
Not only is Negan potentially killing two characters, but he’s also taking Daryl away from Rick. If the deaths don’t break Rick, losing Daryl certainly will. Negan rules in fear; as long as he has Daryl, he holds power over Alexandria. Daryl has become a vital part of the community. Without Daryl there isn’t anyone to hunt or track enemies. Daryl is the protector of Alexandria.
Damn, Rick is so screwed.
Still, the introduction of Negan will provide a nice power shift in The Walking Dead . Rick’s group had become too powerful and forgot there are other survivors out there who’ve probably experienced far worse. If only Rick had listened to Jedi Morgan and tried to talk to Negan. Now Morgan’s off trying to keep Carol from doing something stupid and Rick’s weaker than ever.
This season’s gonna be a good one. The Walking Dead Season 7 premieres Oct. 23 on AMC.
