The hype of the hit TV series ‘The Walking Dead’ just keeps getting bigger and better what with the success of its recent episode entitled ‘Knots Untie’. So if you are one of those people who haven’t seen it, then you better watch it if you don’t want to miss out on some amazing and intense stories.
With that, let us have a recap on the recent episode so watch out for some major spoilers.
It turns out that Abe just can’t keep his mind off Sasha who was his ex-patrol buddy who got herself transferred to another schedule with a different partner. Even when his wife is still around, Abe just can’t stop thinking of Sasha and a potential love story with her. This week Sasha opened things up by telling TWD’s favorite ginger that her daily assignment was changing and they wouldn’t be seeing each other so often. Abraham was quietly devastated, which would have been charming if he wasn’t still dating Rosita.
Meanwhile, the group discovered the Jesus’ community who seemed to be always on the ground tilling for crops. They can’t protect their selves what with a no supply of ammos and only spears to protect themselves. The group is out of ammo and without anyone willing to stand up to aggressors, Gregory, a well-dressed former plutocrat who leads the pack, has agreed to the terms of Negan’s protection racket, which appears to be the Saviors’ main way of subsisting without doing any cultivation of its own.
Negan and his Saviors have been taxing this second walled community for 50% of everything they grow, and when these extortionist rates aren’t enough to stop the killing and kidnapping, Rick and company offer up their services, for 50% of everything. On their way there, Rick’s group comes across a car accident. Somehow some of Jesus’ people have crashed and are now hiding out in a big, dark, scary building. Rick and friends go rescue them.
The show is wasting a golden opportunity to characterize Negan through his victims and the chaos and violence he’s left in his wake. Instead, we just have Maggie’s warning that helping The Hilltop is "gonna cost us something."
The show pretty much disappointed some of its fans by not really giving much justice to Negan but otherwise, they can still make up for it on the next episode. So watch out what happens next.
