The walking dead season 7 episode 3 summary

He also makes a good point about possibly overthrowing Negan, вЂњThereвЂ™ s only one of him and all of us.вЂќ Yeah, how did Negan come to run this criminal empire? A gang of power-hungry thugs and a mass of exploited workers no oneвЂ™s thought of a coup before? Everyone literally has to kneel when he walks past! A baseball bat canвЂ™t stop bullets! Hopefully thereвЂ™s a story there. Sandwich Guy would rather die, and drops to his knees, asking Dwight to kill him. After a tedious segment where Dwight is menaced by walkers that are falling off a freeway overpass, he tracks down Sandwich Guy and starts taking him back to Negan. It is, of course, Sandwich Guy, so Dwight offers to track him down personally. Norman Reedus and Christine Evangelista in вЂњThe Walking Dead.вЂќДwight gets a report that someone has stolen some goods and made a run for it. ItвЂ™s a hell of a lot better than being dead.вЂќ That may be, but not everyone feels that way. They each try to put on a brave face, but their pain and misery is palpable. In one of the episodeвЂ™s better moments, Dwight runs into Sherry in a stairwell, and they exchange awkward, insincere small talk. Dwight used to be one of NeganвЂ™s indentured servants, working to provide meds for his sister-in-law, until they all decided to escape, and we saw how that turned out. In a backstory that is strongly hinted at throughout the episode, and then eventually just explained outright to Daryl by Negan, after Dwight returned to the Saviors back in Season 6, his wife Sherry bargained for his life by offering to marry Negan, and Dwight just had his face burned instead. Dwight is one of NeganвЂ™s bright young go-getters, but he still has serious doubts about his Glorious Leader. What this episode reveals is that there are cracks in the SaviorsвЂ™ foundation. Yes, there are some Negan speeches in this episode, and no, NeganвЂ™s whole вЂњIвЂ™m really cheerful about being so menacingвЂќ shtick is still not particularly compelling.

Negan offers him three choices: to be a walker on his perimeter fence, to work for points like the indentured servants, or be one of his top guys. At one point, DarylвЂ™s cell door is left unlocked to see if heвЂ™ll try to escape, and when he inevitably does, he gets a righteous beat down. Austin Amelio and Jeffrey Dean Morgan in вЂњ The Walking Dead.вЂќДwightвЂ™s the point man on breaking Daryl, but Negan chips in as well.
