The Walking Dead does Leah give Daryl another ultimatum?
By Renee Hansen
The Walking Dead has introduced the Reapers, and as many have guessed, Leah was among this group. They are a highly skilled, tight-knit group who are ruthless to others as well as to those within their ranks who don’t follow the rules. We were introduced to their leader, a religious zealot named Pope, but what comes next?
In the next episode of The Walking Dead, 1106 “On the Inside,” we will see more of the Reapers. The promo sneak peek is only 30 seconds long, but we can a lot is going on with this group. Daryl is now among their group and had his ‘trial by fire,’ which he passed and is now being accepted as one of them.
Viewers know that Daryl plans to get closer to Pope to kill him for revenge for Maggie and everyone else. But, at what cost?
The Walking Dead, Leah issues an ultimatum to Daryl
Daryl was surprised to see Leah once again and even more surprised that she was part of the Reapers. He had searched for her after she left the cabin, not knowing if she was kidnapped or left on her own. He had decided his place was with her after she gave him a choice.
The fact that she was involved in his torture from the Reapers can not sit well with him. But, Daryl is a survivor and will do what he needs to ensure he comes out of this situation alive. He is playing their game to cozy up to Pope, learn what he can, and most likely kill Pope.
In the promo for “On the Inside,” the Reapers are on the move. Have they discovered the satellite house where Maggie, Negan, Elijah and Gabe have taken shelter? We know they are searching for Maggie.
We also see Frost in a chair, most likely receiving more beatings as they try to extract information from him.
One thing that stands out is Leah’s comment, “You are either with us or your not.” It appears she is talking to Daryl.
If she remembers, the last time she gave him an ultimatum that didn’t play out as she had hoped. Does she think it will work out this time? What is she expecting him to do to prove his loyalties to the Reapers? Most likely something terrible.
The Walking Dead “On the Inside” airs on AMC on September 26. This episode is available to stream now on AMC+.
