The woman who was riding shotgun with him saw all of this then got away. When Dwight ran into that Savior patrol, he asked if anyone had seen her and they said she was still missing in action. So no one knows of Dwight's betrayal until she turns up.cinemarchaeologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507603255666191405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-34552447644441107542018-03-14T13:01:58.701-04:002018-03-14T13:01:58.701-04:00It was also never shown/explained, how they got aw...It was also never shown/explained, how they got away from the walker surrounded compound in the first place (other than firing a few rounds into the approaching dead on the lower level of the building).henkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05741910689369376036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-89523420168339883892018-03-14T13:00:14.146-04:002018-03-14T13:00:14.146-04:00Didn't Dwight even mention in this episode, th...Didn't Dwight even mention in this episode, that one of them got away and if he'd be back with the Saviours, that it would be his death sentence?henkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05741910689369376036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-88907299620681843262018-03-12T19:35:41.705-04:002018-03-12T19:35:41.705-04:00Thanks for the info... another one I'm a littl...Thanks for the info... another one I'm a little hazy on is the Dwight thing: does anyone in Saviorland know of his betrayal? I think he mentioned this at the swamp, that they'd kill him if he ever went back, but when he meets of with some of them, and grabs a rifle, he willingly saunters right back to the main group as Negan himself is making his zombie-goo speech... So, nobody DOES know of his turncoat actions and he was lying? Because if anyone did, then going back with them and not murdering them as soon as he had a chance was the same as committing suicide, right?<br /><br />Again, I may have missed some actual relevant info in episodes past as this show is getting pretty sleep-inducing, but I honestly don't know what the hell's going on here...

They surrounded the Sanctuary with zombies, wiped out the outposts and the heads of the communities were going to meet at Sanctuary and... maybe the Saviors would eventually surrender? Something like that, or that's how it unfolded (or failed to unfold).cinemarchaeologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507603255666191405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-23344442686087157292018-03-12T15:16:37.898-04:002018-03-12T15:16:37.898-04:001 - The fact that Negan doesn't know yet is, o...1 - The fact that Negan doesn't know yet is, of course, absurd. His men may not know Negan told him to only kill one but they'd certainly talk about it with their comrades after they returned--Negan doesn't kill entire communities and this would have probably been the first time they'd been told to do such a thing.<br /><br />2 - I don't remember any prior mention of a food shortage. The Safe Zone was blown to bits and probably looted of anything like that but the Kingdom and Hilltop should still have a good supply. Hilltop is somewhat crippled by the decision to take in a bunch of Saviors who have to be fed, and, of course, the Safe Zoners are just more mouths they'll have to feed but the writers couldn't wait for them to arrive to introduce the idea of shortage. If they had, what else would Maggie talk about while this filler ep played out?<br /><br />The Saviors wouldn't have carted off the Kingdom's food, which appeared to be plentiful; it was their intention to move into that community until the Sanctuary could be cleaned up. This is definitely something that should be addressed but won't be.cinemarchaeologisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507603255666191405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-40691543129998742802018-03-12T14:54:46.738-04:002018-03-12T14:54:46.738-04:00Might have missed it in a previous write-up, but d...Might have missed it in a previous write-up, but did the show ever spell out Rick's grand plan for defeating the Saviors?John Rottenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07736420410333742002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-585323794423400780.post-46687478184780565172018-03-12T05:09:06.392-04:002018-03-12T05:09:06.392-04:00Couple questions you may have insight for:

However they showed a sneak peek for next week's ep and he's still there driving a car in a convoy with Negan. Are we to believe that nobody informed Negan, the person everybody kneels for and become absolutely lost without, about Simon's defiance?<br /><br />2- Was there any mention of a food shortage before? Seems strange there isn't enough food now since they don't have to supply the Saviors any more... Jim The Hammerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05769117930223573357noreply@blogger.com
