00:00Previously on Dead City
00:07Look, I'm going to get that methane
00:09With your help or without it
00:11Exploratory mission, huh?
00:14Because we're just the first wave
00:15The conscripts
00:17We should go, we should
00:19We can't go
00:20I can't go
00:22She stays here just like this
00:24It's her best chance for recovery
00:26Get the Barazzi ready
00:27We've got work to do
00:29It's all going to be okay now
00:31Everything's going to work out
00:59It's all going to work out
03:03Well, hello.
03:04Hey!
03:05Fuck off!
03:06How are you?
03:08How's it going?
03:09I've got good news.
03:11Negan's willing to meet.
03:12We're going to get the kids together for a play date.
03:15Now some moms are going to talk strategy.
03:17I better get the fucking keys to the city when this is all done.
03:20Call me mayor.
03:21Any sign of the grill yet?
03:22It's so strange to think that centuries ago, so long ago, these same weapons were used for
03:32the same purpose.
03:33That's how long we've been at this killing thing, right?
03:37Not that it isn't for a good cause, cause we gotta kill people to get the old world back
03:42so we can just keep on killing people.
03:44I asked you about the girl.
03:45What?
03:46The girl.
03:47Oh, the girl.
03:48Oh, I'm sure she's fine.
03:50Yeah, she was catching up to that woman and her kid.
03:54That's what I'd be doing because those two are just a barrel of laughs.
03:59Relax.
04:00Don't worry about it.
04:03You're already making new friends.
04:21Where is she?
04:23It's not what you think.
04:25She came to me.
04:27She said that she'd kill Negan, but she couldn't get to the church cause she was,
04:32I don't know, sick or hurt, so we just gave her a lift.
04:35You don't know what you've done.
04:38Well, clearly she didn't pull it off, right?
04:41Cause she doesn't want to kill him.
04:42She's confused.
04:43It's not, that's not what it's about.
04:46Well, what's it about?
04:47Is she like his kid or something?
04:53See the look in your face?
04:57Ah!
05:00Come on.
05:01This is good.
05:04I knew Negan mattered to her.
05:06And now, thanks to you, I know she matters to him.
05:09So if things go sideways for us, she's our insurance.
05:12You're touching her, I swear to God, that'll be the last thing you do.
05:14I'm not saying it needs to go down that way.
05:17I hope it doesn't, truly.
05:20See?
05:21This is fun.
05:23It's what I'm talking about.
05:25The fun of the game.
05:27You know what else, on top of everything?
05:29I learned something new about you.
05:31Behind all this gruff cowboy act, you're a softie.
05:35I learned something about you too.
05:38Yeah.
05:40They're asking for you upstairs.
05:58The show's about to start.
06:08You don't have to stick around if you don't have the stomach for it.
06:13Like I said, I have nowhere to go.
06:16I'm with you all the way.
06:22Although, I guess I could be here more in spirit, per se.
06:28Open, or I'll just...
06:58Help!
06:59What?
07:01I'll just break it down.
07:02I can't...
07:05Don't break it down.
07:07Oh!
07:08I'll just leave a sec!
07:09I can't!
07:10Don't break it down.
07:12Oh, my god!
07:13Oh, my God!
07:14Oh, my God!
07:15Oh, my God!
07:16Oh, my God!
07:17Oh, my God!
07:18Oh, my God!
07:19Oh, my God!
07:20Oh, my God!
07:21I was hoping we'd get to meet.
07:46You're everything I was expecting and more.
07:51I'm sure.
07:54Where's my son?
07:55Oh, he's here, of his own volition.
08:02You must be famished.
08:21Aren't you supposed to be dead?
08:34There was a body.
08:36Oh, so you've been to my humble pied-à-terre?
08:40Yes, that was one of the already dead.
08:44I let her burn until she got nice and crispy.
08:48There's that more I was waiting for.
09:02Give it.
09:04I don't want to have to punish you.
09:08I don't want to have to punish you.
09:23Or anyone else.
09:28I don't want to have to punish you.
09:30I don't want to have to punish you.
09:32I don't want to be the only chance of blaming you but worse.
09:35I want to nut this one.
09:37I love you.
09:38I love you.
09:39I love you.
09:39I love you.
09:40I love you.
09:41I love you.
09:41I love you.
09:42Oh, my God.
10:12Up, up, up, up, careful, careful, careful, down, down, easy, nicely, fingers, watch your fingers, gentle, good, well done.
10:31I figured you could use a new piece, you know, to help pull the room together.
10:36Seeing as how that old one's been there for 150 years, call it a housewarming gift.
10:43It looks used.
10:45Oh, it was. By the Spanish. 13th century.
10:49Um, where's your buddy, by the way?
10:53Oh, the Croat. He, uh, was taking a leave of absence.
10:58Some shit like that.
11:00Oh, I got something for you, too. A little welcome gift.
11:05See, I know we have a little talking to do. We got to plot our next moves, right?
11:08We both know the new Babylon isn't done with us yet, so please step up.
11:14Help yourselves.
11:16Something's on.
11:17Don't want to strategize on an empty stomach.
11:20You know, actually, we ate before we can't. I don't think we should waste any more time.
11:28You got somewhere to be?
11:30No, no, no. It's just what you said. New Babylon is just starting.
11:35Who's to say they're not here right now on this island?
11:38Rather than food, let's just dive into our thoughts. I've got so many.
11:43Oh, I have no doubt. But see, the thing is, if so much work was put into this big, beautiful feast,
11:48that I'd hate to have it go to waste. I'd feel like such a bad host.
12:08Go ahead. You eat. We'll wait.
12:13You think I put something in the food.
12:16Of course not.
12:30Your loss.
12:43We're good?
12:55We're good.
12:56We're good.
13:13I know you think I'm using your son.
13:42You're right. I am.
13:45The old world was rigged, designed to break us and rip us apart.
13:54But Herschel never knew that world, which is why he can dream up something that you and I never could.
14:02We'll, of course, need someone to protect that new world.
14:07I'd hoped that person could be Negan.
14:14But thoughts can be deceiving.
14:18Herschel told me what you were capable of.
14:21But the fact that you're here now, you still haven't given up.
14:29I'm only sorry it took me so long to see it.
14:33So that is what all of this is about.
14:37You want me to come at Negan.
14:42Huh.
14:43I would have thought that we would have this in common, wanting Negan dead.
14:49But I understand when Negan is up, you feel the need to knock him down.
14:58And when he's down, you have to prop him back up.
15:02You're stuck in a loop.
15:06You can't let it go.
15:07You can't let him go.
15:10And how could you?
15:12He murdered your husband violently, pliefully.
15:20After losing so many people who meant so much to you.
15:25Your mother.
15:28Your father.
15:31Your sister.
15:34And now your son.
15:37He needed you.
15:41But how could you be there for him?
15:44When you couldn't be there for yourself.
15:50It's okay, Maggie.
15:52You can still get him back.
15:57Negan is still out there.
15:59Widowing wives and orphaning children.
16:04Only you can stop him.
16:07Only you can kill him.
16:12Don't do it for me.
16:15Do it for you.
16:17Do it for Herschel.
16:20Set yourselves free.
16:22No!
16:29No!
16:33No!
16:40No!
16:41No!
16:43No!
16:44No!
16:44Statue!
17:00Statue!
17:14Statue!
17:44Statue!
17:48Go!
18:04There he is!
18:14I have to leave him.
18:19Stop!
18:26Stop!
18:30Stop!
18:32Let's go.
19:02Let's go.
19:32I didn't know she'd hit your head like that.
20:00I'm sorry.
20:12She said that you talked.
20:17You were right.
20:24I'm not over it.
20:26I've never been over it.
20:28I think about him all the time.
20:33I think about what he did.
20:36And I know that I have to let it go.
20:38I know that it's the only way.
20:43No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to do it.
20:47I know you tried.
20:56But it's like you said.
21:02It's not working.
21:06I want us to be a family.
21:09I want to move on.
21:11And be free.
21:13But there's only one way.
21:23And then we can just be done with it.
21:26We can start over.
21:37Okay.
21:41I'll finish it.
21:43Then I'll come back for you.
21:44So this is what you used to encrest the bodies.
22:06The bombs.
22:07You really came up here just to look at those cannons.
22:16Definitely.
22:18It's because of them that you defeated New Babylon on the water.
22:22If history were a conflagration,
22:25then these cannons would be the embers.
22:28Or is it because you're a huge fucking pussy
22:30who doesn't want to be at the church
22:32while shit goes down?
22:33Was that boat there before?
22:54Um.
23:03Who are you?
23:11Who are you with?
23:14New Babylon.
23:33Who are you with?
23:47Let's go.
24:17Girl, don't be scared.
24:20It's me, your old pal.
24:28What?
24:33Are you okay? Are you okay?
24:48It was him. This guy.
24:51He got me to do this.
24:53The rest of his people, they're hiding in the park.
24:56Oh, there's dozens of them, like 50 at least.
24:59They ambushed us, they took hostages.
25:01Now you know how I care about my people.
25:03I couldn't just, like...
25:12Megan, I know things about New Babylon.
25:16I do. I know how they operate.
25:18And with the methane, we can beat them.
25:21And then we can bring back the old world.
25:25The way it used to be.
25:26Not just a couple of blocks, but the whole city.
25:28The old fucking planet.
25:30And then you and me will be back on top.
25:32The winners.
25:33With all the spoils.
25:35Just like it used to be.
25:37On your knees.
25:47On your knees.
26:05You too, Marshal.
26:07Yes.
26:37Eenie, meenie, miney, moe.
26:46Catch a tiger by his toe.
26:52If he hollers, let him go.
26:58Eenie, meenie, miney.
27:07You know what, fuck it.
27:22See, you're the one that I really want to kill first.
27:25Megan, no, come on, please. Please!
27:28There's nothing we can't do, you and me! The methane!
27:30The methane! The goddamn methane!
27:33That is all you talk about!
27:37You really want the methane that bad?
27:44Take it.
27:46Take it.
27:53Take it.
27:55Take it.
27:56No!
28:26I got this.
28:56You shouldn't have come here.
29:10Glad you did.
29:13See, I know what you're thinking.
29:19See, you're thinking, you should have shot me when you had the chance.
29:24And you'd be right.
29:31You sure as shit should have.
29:40Thing is, now, well now it's too late.
29:52You should have shot me.
29:59You should have shot me.
30:07Whatever you think you saw, it's not like that.
30:22I was protecting her.
30:23I hate me.
30:24See, I am so fucking sick of maybes.
30:29See, I am so fucking sick of maybes.
30:36You are too late.
30:37I will be trying.
30:39I will be trying to get a fire.
30:42I will do it.
30:43I will be trying to get a fire.
30:45I am so fucking sick.
30:46Oh, my God.
31:16Oh, my God.
31:46Oh, my God.
32:16Oh, my God.
32:46No.

35:34No.
35:36No.
35:38No.
35:40No.
35:42No.
35:44No.
35:45I was, I was so busy looking out for her, thinking I was looking out for her, I missed it, I just, I just missed it, that's how, how she died, she died alone.
36:15There's something I gotta do, I have to go.
36:45You promised.
36:57You promised.
37:13You, you said you understood, you said we could start over, but you didn't mean it, you just, it's the same as it always is.
37:35We were wrong.
37:42It's not like how we said, and killing Negan would only make it worse.
37:50And that's not how we're gonna...
37:53Don't!
38:00Whatever.
38:02It doesn't matter.
38:04She and I all get there together.
38:06I know what you're going through.
38:10You think that you wanna run off and be somebody different.
38:15You wanna hurt me.
38:17You wanna hurt me back.
38:21Just know.
38:22Right, cause you got it all figured out.
38:24Cause you did so fucking perfectly yourself.
38:28Just know I will always be here for you.
38:34I won't leave the city.
38:39I won't leave the city.
39:04Only you've found that.
39:05Just know what you wanted.
39:27I got my feet to me.
39:29I got that...
39:30That's why we're done.
39:31New Babylon.
39:40Second wave.
39:43That's it, then.
39:45I'll get the methane and...
39:48So where do we go from here?
40:01Walking through the woods, a man comes to a fork in his path.
40:18To go left is to go home.
40:21His past.
40:24To go right is to go out into the unknown.
40:27His future.
40:28He knows his past.
40:32It's comforting.
40:34But will it be like he remembers?
40:38And his future is full of possibilities, but...
40:42What if he gets lost?
40:46Which way does he go?
40:53He goes left.
40:54Back home to the way things were.
41:02But all that's waiting for him is an old story that hurts too much to remember.
41:08So he goes right.
41:14But there's nothing there for him either.
41:19Because what's the future without the past?
41:25What's an ending without that old story?
41:28The truth is, there is only one way forward.
41:34One way to move on.
41:39We gotta work through what was.
41:46To get to what will be.
41:48It's a path that's hard and rough.
41:55All uphill.
41:58We keep thinking we'll never make it.
42:04Sometimes we see where we're headed.
42:06We catch a glimpse of the mountaintop.
42:12It's so beautiful.
42:14It takes our breath away.
42:17But then we lose our footing.
42:20We tumble backwards.
42:22Right back to the bottom.
42:26So that it feels like we'll never get up again.
42:28But we do.
42:34We help each other up.
42:36And the path becomes much clearer now.
42:41We move on.
42:44Together.
42:48And we get there.
42:50I was hoping we'd get to meet.
43:01Lisa started on the show last year.
43:02And for all of the season,
43:04we haven't been able to work together.
43:05I've never done a scene in this series with another woman.
43:09So finally, we get to meet.
43:11God, was I happy.
43:12I would have thought that we would have this in common,
43:16wanting Negan dead.
43:17I think my talk with Maggie is manipulation.
43:22All I really want is for her to kill Negan.
43:24Don't do it for me.
43:26Do it for Herschel.
43:28Set yourselves free.
43:39Negan just gets screwed.
43:41Do you know what I mean?
43:43It's the culmination
43:44of the years of tension
43:47that have wound her so tightly
43:49and in some ways kept her upright
43:50that then she's able to just
43:52release in a way that you'd
43:54she'd never otherwise be able to release.
43:56I think for Lauren and Jeffrey,
43:58it was a big deal
43:59and it was a big moment.
44:01Grab the bat.
44:03And go.
44:04I have never picked up that bat.
44:10The moment that Maggie actually picks it up
44:13sent chills down my spine.
44:15Holding it,
44:16it was just an interesting transfer of energy
44:18that was surprising to me.
44:20When Ginny emerges as a walker
44:31from the cell,
44:32it was powerful for all of us,
44:33you know,
44:34because not only is this character dying,
44:35this is the actor's last scene.
44:38The Negan-Ginny storyline
44:40was such an important part of last season
44:42to then kind of take that away
44:45and build it elsewhere.
44:46It was an interesting way to go.
44:49All levels.
44:50It was a hard scene,
44:51but a beautiful scene
44:52and she was a good walker
44:53and we were all emotional that day.
44:59I think we know,
45:01you and I,
45:02and I think the audience will know.
45:03It's exactly how it played out with Lucille.
45:06And it breaks him
45:07because he loves Ginny.
45:16You promised.
45:22Herschel,
45:23he keeps sort of expecting
45:25that maybe this time
45:26he and his mom can move past
45:28the trauma that seems to be holding them back,
45:31the Negan of it all.
45:32And every time
45:33he makes himself vulnerable
45:34and lets himself believe
45:36that they can move past this,
45:37he's reminded that they're not over it
45:40and that they're not past it.
45:41And then it hurts all over again for him
45:43and so he lashes out.
45:44Just know I will always be here for you.
45:47I won't leave the city.
45:49To me,
45:49it's like the kernel
45:50of what could be
45:52some kind of new relationship.
45:54They got a long way to go,
45:55but for a second,
45:56you could see a glimpse
45:56of the type of relationship
45:58that these two could have
45:59that they could work through this.
46:00So where do we go from here?
46:03We end the season
46:03on Negan, Maggie, and Armstrong
46:05inspired to work together
46:07to fight for a better world.
46:09And that world
46:10is not going to be the Dama's world
46:11and it's not going to be
46:12New Babylon's world.
46:13It's something else.
46:15I think that it means
46:16that this story's not over yet.
46:18There is only one way forward.
46:21We got to work through what was.
46:24To get to what will be.
46:43We got to work through that.
46:45We got to work through it.
46:45We'll be right back with you.
