Time For Spaghetti
It’s midnight on the clock and Eugene turns on the light. He stares at the ceiling before getting up to take a drink of wine. He’s upset. He lays down again and turns off the light. Then he turns it on again and weeps.
Carl can’t see through the smoke but he sees the people moving in. He smiles when he sees his hat. He finds a house and leans against the door, but it soon explodes. He runs off and spots a burning cross in the distance. He’s hurt, but he limps along.
Tara and Daryl wait and Tara says the Saviors didn’t get out because of the truck. Rosita says she made a mistake by going to the Sanctuary, because that got Sasha killed. In the distance, Dwight and Regina approach. Dwight leads the trucks forward and Regina says they’re going to be killed but he keeps driving. Dwight manages to get out and he spots Daryl and Michonne. He starts shooting at the Saviors. He kills them all except for Regina, who shoots Dwight in the shoulder. She knows he did it on purpose.
The truck rolls through the gates and Negan laughs as he walks in. He says they could have used the solar panels. He notes that the convoy must have gotten away. He tells everyone to find Carl but not to kill him. He wants him alive. He wants everything burned except for Rick’s house, which is where he’s going to make some spaghetti.
Carl runs into some Saviors but he manages to light a smoke bomb and get away. He makes it to the grate in the ground.
