Rick’s group managed to take out a few more Saviors in this week’s adventure, but their victory may have come at a very big price: kidnapped Carol and Maggie are both so traumatized by recent events and the things they’ve been tasked to do in their daily battle to survive that both women seem to have reached a point where they need a timeout on all the killing.
But with the impending arrival of ultimate TWD villain Negan, Carol and Maggie’s crisis couldn’t come at a worse time for their friends.
Kidnapped
A voice on the walkie-talkie had informed Rick that Carol and Maggie were in the custody of Saviors at the end of last week’s episode, and we meet the voice right away: she’s Paula (guest star Alicia Witt), who quickly establishes herself as the leader of a Saviors offshoot group that also includes Molly, Shell, and Donnie. The group snuck up on Carol and Maggie as they were on lookout duty outside the Saviors’ main hideout — the one Rick and the others successfully attacked — and though Carol manages to shoot Donnie in the arm, Paula and the others take Carol and Maggie hostage.
Getting to Know You
Paula kills a walker — knife from the back of the head straight through the face — just as it’s inches from Maggie’s face, and then tells the gagged and bound Maggie and Carol to sit on the floor, on opposite sides of a small room in the plant. “You’re wondering if there’s a way out of this,” she tells Carol. “There isn’t. Not unless I say so.” As the Savior women drag the body of the walker Paula killed out of the room, its rosary beads catch on Carol’s leg. Carol picks them up and stashes them in her pocket before they notice.
Carol: “You sure about that?”
Paula: “I’m alive.”
Carol: “With those people. Those killers.”
Paula: “Your people are killers, Carol. Makes you a killer.”
Carol: “You. You’re the one… you’re the one who’s afraid to die. And you’re going to. You will die. That’s what’s gonna happen if you don’t work this out.”
Paula: “Are you going to kill me?”
Carol: “I hope not.”
