5 questions we still have after The Walking Dead 710 ‘New Best Friends’
By Adam Carlson
#3. Can The Scavengers be trusted?
One of the biggest questions that is getting lost in the shuffle involves the new community that was introduced at the junkyard. Led by Jadis, this is a group that is very unique to the apocalypse, is organized, and obedient.
The Scavengers seem like an honorable group, but there is a chance they could be playing Rick and the others as tools to get food and weapons without putting themselves in any kind of danger from The Saviors.
Now that they have half the jars of food and are waiting on a delivery of weapons, what is keeping them from not turning their backs on the people of Alexandria? And even though Rick passed the test with the spiked and armored walkers, do they trust their new associates?
The dynamic between these two communities will be an interesting one to watch going forward. While they could be great soldiers in the war against Negan and The Saviors, trusting strangers isn’t always the best move to make.
