The Walking Dead season 10: Alpha’s 5 best moments
By Sonya Iryna
5. Eyes Inside Alexandria
Season 10, episode 8 “The World Before”
Coming right on the heels of Dante’s shocking murder of Siddiq was the revelation that Dante was a spy planted inside Alexandria by Alpha to terrorize the people there and to help her carry out her plan to systematically dismantle the civilization they had built. On her orders Dante turned off the water filtration system so that people would become sick from drinking the water, which she contaminated with walker guts at the source. She also used her control of the lands around Alexandria to make it harder for them to find food.
Dante was one of the Whisperers who slaughtered the survivors in the barn and beheaded them yet he lived among them wreaking havoc and gathering intelligence for Alpha. It was risky for her send Dante in there when there was a possibility that Siddiq might recognize him, but Alpha was so arrogant she placed him inside anyway. And no one caught on, until Dante murdered Siddiq, so perhaps her confidence in her own abilities was justified.
One thing is for sure: Her vast intellect combined with her total amorality made Alpha truly terrifying because was capable of just about anything. Placing a spy inside the walls of Alexandria is cunning, but using a spy that already participated in the slaughter of people who lived in that community is some next -level evilness.
