The Walking Dead, Promises Broken: Things To Note

Will Negan and Maggie reconcile for good?

6) As Father Gabriel scouts Meridian, one of the Reapers can be seen driving a truck. Considering how big of a plot point the failure of gas came to be in the last couple of seasons of Fear The Walking Dead, one has to wonder: Where did The Reapers get the fresh gas from?

7) Negan and Maggie’s conversation about Meridian is the first time since Glenn’s death that either has really addressed how the Saviors saw the attack on the satellite outpost back in season six’s “Not Tomorrow Yet.”

8) Additionally, Negan also addresses Gracie, whose birth parents (Or, at least, her father) Rick and Daryl’s team killed in the assault on the insurance office outpost in season eight’s second episode, “The Damned,” and how good and evil are often a matter of perspective in the apocalypse.

9) What’s more, during this discussion, we see from Negan’s perspective the burden of leadership, specifically, what he had to do for those left behind (Family, friends, significant others, etc.) when members of his army were killed. While we often saw this from Rick’s perspective (With Glenn, Abraham, Spencer, Olivia, and Sasha, to name a few), this is the first time we’ve seen it from Negan’s perspective, only before having it hinted at by Morales.
