The Walking Dead continues as we see what happened after last week’s explosive episode. Here’s your first look and synopsis of “The King, The Widow and Rick.”

The Kingdom has been dealt a massive blow while Alexandria and the Hilltop haven’t suffered nearly the kind of losses as Ezekiel’s community. With the Saviors still on the run, Rick wants to assess one of his former allies while Maggie must deal with a big decision.

Here’s the official synopsis of The Walking Dead episode 806 “The Big Scary U” from AMC:

"“With things looking up for Rick and the group, an argument breaks out at the Hilltop; the consequences of the decision are life versus death.”"

At the end of “The Big Scary U” Rick was on his way to see Jadis at the Sanctuary. He hasn’t seen her since she betrayed him in Alexandria by seeming to side with Negan, only to abandon both sides after the fighting broke out. Rick has a lot more to bargain with this time around, so will he force her to fall in line this time, or is he looking to get those guns back?

While Rick deals with Jadis and the Scavengers, Jesus arrives at the Hilltop with the Saviors who surrendered, but this will no doubt be problematic because the Hilltop doesn’t have a place to keep prisoners. Maggie has to keep people safe as her top priority, so how can she do that if they have Saviors inside the walls with no way to keep them contained?

Morgan already voiced his displeasure at having the Saviors as prisoners, as did Tara, but Jesus remained resolute. What will happen if Maggie doesn’t see things his way?
