The Walking Dead 808 recap: ‘How It’s Gotta Be’
I Saw It Happen
There are dead Saviors all over the road and Dwight calls out that it’s over. Tara rushes in with a gun at his head. Dwight says he did everything they asked of him. He can’t go back because Regina got away. Daryl asks if what he did is how they got out but he says Eugene helped. He wants Negan to die. Daryl takes his jacket back. Michonne says they need to get back, now, and Rosita looks at Dwight and helps him to his feet.
Maggie watches as the body is lowered into the box. She writes that they have 38 more of Negan’s men and orders them to stand down. She orders the box to be left in the open where Negan can find it.
Gavin says he liked Ezekiel and doesn’t know why he had to go this far. He is going to be taken back to Negan alive.
They check the grate and go inside to get back to Alexandria. Dwight apologizes to Michonne and gets in. In the distance, Walkers approach. She doesn’t get in.
Rick approaches Alexandria’s walls and finds his own house standing. He goes inside and calls for Carl, Judith and Michonne. He finds Negan, who hits him with Lucille. Negan has plans for him. As he swings, Rick ducks and asks if he ever stops talking. “Nope!” he says. Negan tells him about how Carl impressed him by offering to die. He’s going to make him his top guy. Rick attacks Negan and they start fighting. Rick gets his gun and runs away after Negan throws him out the window.

Michonne is there in Alexandria too and starts clearing the Walkers. One of the Saviors captures her but she quickly kills him. She takes out her rage on him when Rick finds her. He asks where everyone is and she leads him to the tunnels. They’re all there, even Judith.
