MVP from The Walking Dead episode 914: Learning from the past
By Adam Carlson
Which character stood out the most from season 9 episode 14 of The Walking Dead titled “Scars” to be named the MVP from the Sunday, Mar. 17 episode?
When it comes to creating intense and dramatic scenes, few do it better than The Walking Dead. This week, the focus was put on scars, whether they are reminders of the past or stories to tell in the future.
The popular AMC zombie drama show got everything set up for the fair to happen at the Kingdom and helped Michonne understand that she can’t close off the world because of fear of being stabbed in the back.
Because of that, a Most Valuable Person was named from season 9 episode 14 titled “Scars” and the decision wasn’t that difficult to make.
The MVP from TWD 914 was Michonne!
The reason Michonne has been so standoffish and isolated was revealed in the past to be due to events fans never saw happen on-screen. In “Scars”, those scenes were shown and not only explain why she was how she was but that it made a big impact on Judith as well.
Easing up a bit to allow the fair thanks to Judith, Michonne’s story involving Joscelyn, a group of kids, and the abduction of kids from Alexandria was sure to make viewers’ jaws drop at least once…and for different reasons.
Despite being disturbed by having to kill her former friend and children, Michonne was still able to sit down with Judith to talk about what happened and learned a lot by doing so. The dialogue opened up talk of helping those in need, remembering those lost along the way, and being open to trusting people if they earn it.
In the present, she made the decision to go with Judith to the fair and see the people she had been ignoring. This opens up the dialogue between the communities again and could result in a much brighter future for Alexandria as well as survivors everywhere.
Other options for MVP during this episode were Daryl Dixon or Judith Grimes, but Michonne should be the overwhelming choice from “Scars”.
Do you agree that Michonne is the Most Valuable Person from season 9 episode 14 of The Walking Dead or would you have chosen someone else for that honor? Let us know in the comments!
