Yep, I forget that sometimes but Maggie and Daryl saved her life when she was first born so they’re like second parents to her.

[@kevinnaber790]

Judith had seen Pamela at target practice so she ran to push Maggie out of the way and took the shot that was aimed at Maggie, probably because Oceanside and Hilltop followed her. Good thing that Tommi is a thoracic surgeon and now we have a major character with a shoulder or chest wound. In the background of several scenes of Pamela’s office, she has awards for marksmanship and we saw her in the episode that introduced Sebastian with either a huge shotgun or elephant rifle and making excellent distance shots in a later episode when she has a ‘hunt’ with Maggie. It’s also implied that Pamela wanted to be a sport shooter but was brought into politics when her father became president. They packed a lot of details into this season, would have been better without so much with the Reapers in part A, but there are lines that tell us that Connie was a congressional and possibly White House correspondent and that she and her family knew the Miltons, that Mercer and Max’s father was a general and Mercer was a West Point graduate.

For some reason Judith said “Daddy.” The best way this ends? Judith loses consciousness and at the end she finally wakes up, and somehow Rick is there, and she calls him Daddy. The series finale NEEDS to be worth the wait. The best thing would be to see Rick and Michonne.

[@amyfender1]

I think the secret saying that Judith is referring to in the beginning sequence is "We're the ones who live"

[@Fliim]

Rick was actually using whisperer techniques and was the walker that got into the jeep. He then made it all the way in the commonwealth and Judith saw him in the crowd of walkers as she was being carried by Daryl. “Daddy” as she said. He makes sure Daryl is able to get her to safety. He reveals himself to the group that is surrounded, taking off his whisperer attire, he reveals the murder jacket. Absolute mayhem breaks out. True Rick is back to save his family. Cornered Pamela takes Ezikel hostage, but Michonne is in the rafters waiting to strike. Jumping down, sword in hand the Milton’s are no more. Ezikel lives. Daryl gets Judith to Yumicos brother in which he saves her. However Daryl is sacked and taken away by an unknown entity. Though Rick got his family back, he lost his brother. We then see shots of the aftermath and the Union they come up with. Some amazing scenes with Mercer doing his work. A call back scene where Rick is sitting with Judith as he did with Carl, then a small time jump. Judith fully recovered. Carol as the new commonwealth Governor, Rick back at Alexandria with Michonne, RJ, and Judith. Jerry, his kid and wife with Ezikel starting a new kingdom. Of course Gabriel goes back to start a church at Alexandria with his daughter. We get a shot of him mourning Rosita who gave the ultimate sacrifice to save her child. Lydia and Elija set of to get Daryl in anyway they can. Post credit scene - Daryl contacts home and finally finds out Rick is alive and Judith is okay. With the final line being “I’m coming home brother” -Daryl This is what I want, I know it’s not happening but my goodness it’d be the darndest coolest thing ever.

[@brendanlucchino6640]

[@mycelia_ow]

I know someone that knows a scriptwriter, who took some images of some early scripts. These might have been changed, but essentially the CRM is the one that brought variant walkers to the Commonwealth along with the horde. Their goal is to take over the Commwealth, no more Lance had sped this up a bit. Rick is leading on the front lines commanding the CRM takeover, not knowing his group is there. We don't have that many scenes with Rick interacting with the group, he's only shown closer to the end, and then again after the time jump (post credit scene + Michonne). There's more in-between all of that but it's just a basic summary and it's not even 1/4th of the script. The second and last post credit scene is a teaser scene for Rick's show.

[@captain4318]

Well, can't wait for their reaction to the finale. In all 11 seasons I haven't cried a single time, but bawled my eyes out during the finale.

[@asiahenry7798]

So Carl and Judith took bullets meant for someone else. This episode is the culmination of all their previous big bads, and it is awesome to watch!

[@taneshah.1260]

That Ezekiel/ Negan convo was EVERYTHING. Also, if Jerry dies because he went back out for Elijah, I'm gonna be pissed.

[@VeezyTheGreat]

I got a feeling Jerry will discover Elijah as a walker. Just seeing Luke and Jules and not seeing Elijah makes me wonder now.

[@fojemo1661]

I HAD GOOSEBUMPS WITH THAT INTRO. The mini reunion of Lori, Carl, Michionne, and Rick. The way Judith put Rick's hat on RJ and how RJ looked up. GOOSEBUMPS! And that was just the intro. If this is how amazing the penultimate episode is, I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE FINALE!!!

[@KCohere33]

This is the first episode, his talk with King E, that I started to consider Negan redeemed. He is actually owning up to his actions. Maybe having his own family to lose finally gave him some perspective. If King E can get past things with him, as much of an angel as he is, then that says a lot. Maggie hearing their talk makes her teaming with him for the spin-off, make more sense.

[@mycelia_ow]

He's been owning up since the start of season 10 but yea now he's expressing it more instead of trying to hide away his feelings.

Nikki and Steve, I read about the deleted scene in the final episode. After Daryl rides off, there's a van powered by corn or whatever in Atlanta where Rick rode the horse. A guy and girl are there with a few others. The guy gets on the radio and says "Hello...is anybody out there? This is Rick Grimes" The man sending that message is RJ and the lady is Judith with the other children that are now adults. Before the screen fades to black, a message comes back "Hello?" This is around a 10yr time jump.

[@TomTomson81]

It is impossible for Judith to die. She is just following in the footsteps of her father and brother. Every Grimes is shot and survived. But Judith writes a diary (she did in the Whisperer season), which Carl did in the comics. Therefore, it is very possible that she dies and someone just reads her diary.

[@Rknowles813]

No way she dies. 100% believe she lives until the end. At the very least, she won't die until she reunites with Rick and Michonne. If not, it'll be worse than killing off Carl.

Walkers/herds in alleyways and streets are so scary and stressful. I get a heart attack everytime, like in season 6 with Glenn on top of the dumpster. I used to play the Walking Dead: Survivalist Instinct game and purposefully attract a large amount of walkers just to trap me in an alleyway and I figure out ways to survive.

[@therese1584]

My issue with Negan and with everyone that says if we’d met him first is: 1) Rick never made his followers say they were “Rick” to hide himself 2) Rick didn’t tell his people to kill one of each new group’s people to make them fall in line, and 3) Rick didn’t have a class system where some people were not only workers ant also extendible. OH and Rick didn’t have a harem. A coerced harem at that. Rick has his faults. Negan’s are megomeniac.

[@NikkiStevenReact]

See the thing about storytelling is if the story was told from Negan’s point of view, the story would be told for the audience to understand it and side with it. Unless they told a main story from a villain’s point of view, writing would make Negan’s way make sense to the audience

[@pieck5460]

Rick was hitting on a married woman Jesse the same way Shane was, Rick made baby Gracie fatherless over an assumption, Rick slaughtered captured saviour workers even after they helped him and Morgon remove their restraints and find their weapons. Rick slit a dude's throat who was trying to save his brother from the saviours and proceeded to save him from the outpost anyway making that death meaningless. Rick killed people indiscriminately in the satellite outpost and we were shown in the following season that a good amount of them were just slaves/workers like Alden who was loyal to Maggie. We can go on and on about who did what and Negan may of done bad deeds but in comparison to literally every other villain he still was capable of changing and Rick was the reason for that. Seems you have an issue with certain fans not Negan because he literally acknowledges he will never be better than those he waged war against. Negan's change and development is part of the good that Rick is trying to bring back into the world.

Hi guys. No matter how much Negan redeems himself, no matter how much you admire his courage and compassion, for me, he will always be emotionally disposable after what he did to Glen and Abraham. There have been a lot of horrible deaths over the years on this show, but Glen hit me harder than most. Negan is a great character and should be part of the show, but if it's any of the original stars of the show or him? I'll be thinking of Glen when and if he finally goes down. Cheers!

[@NikkiStevenReact]

So those 2 deaths will always just erase all the lives he’s saved the past couple seasons? What’s the point of redemption stories then?

[@peterchristopherbanlon]

@@NikkiStevenReact There's a lot more than those two lives Negan took, but I get your point. Like I said, Negan is a great character and is more than welcome to redeem himself. Who doesn't love a good redemption story. I personally can't forgive him even though I know a lot of folks will. I'm not for summarily executing the newfound family man, but I won't lose any sleep when the character dies. Thanks for the reply. Cheers!

[@NikkiStevenReact]

@savage beast shit and damn all you want, don’t think there’s any penalties. Who was responsible for an entire outpost being murdered in their sleep? Innocent people just trying to survive. It’s like the other side is never mentioned. Negan is the core reason our people won the war with the whisperers. He saved Judith and dog. He served years in jail during the apocalypse. Willing to sacrifice himself for the group to live this season. At some point, got to accept the past and realize characters change. Full redemption story.

[@peterchristopherbanlon]

@@NikkiStevenReact Wow! Okay. You're just as passionate about Negan the villain turned hero as I am resentful of the man who killed a member of my TV family. I love you guys. I deliberately wait for your reaction when I can watch it week earlier. That should say it all. Cheers!

[@NikkiStevenReact]

Negan is two things for me. One of the greatest villains this show has seen and one of the best redemption stories I’ve watched. I loved Glen and Abe too but I also believe in time served and god deeds deserve acknowledgment. With the right rehabilitation, I think people can change. As much pain as he caused all of us, he’s done so much good in saving people too.

that comment about the flashback omg, thats a good theory, ive always like the its a dream of one of the characters... and we end up back at the beginning (no spoilers ) i havent seen anything that was just a theory.

I don’t give monkeys left nuts !! My favourite line

[@jdizzlemynizzle5085]

Judith getting shot was an homage to when Carl got shot, she mentions Carl several times throughout the episode.

[@Obscur888]

I was sooooooooo waiting for this one!!!

[@farmerjay420]

Common Wealth showed up S8 ep 11 the lady in the van who gave Maggie, the key to the future think Pamela, may have taken over within those years between Rick, vanishing.

I'm guessing this is how certain characters will have their spinoffs. They will probably be separated because of this. Don't know if Judith will still be with Daryl or not, or if she'll even end up in Norman's show. I'm also thinking Negan and Maggie will be separated by this. Maybe they get on a train and that's how they end up somewhere else by the look of trailer for their show. Again, I don't think Rick is gonna show up for the finale. The spinoffs will continue the story that will then tie up everything and bring everyone together again for a final reunion. However long these spinoffs will last. I will be watching the special events taking place for the series finale next week. I'm gonna be crying of course. I don't know if it will happen or not but Andy Lincoln showing up at the show reunion would be the cherry on top and leave me bawling like a baby lol.

Totally agree! I think that’s all just end in a cliffhanger and we’ll see how they decide to do this. Because it was supposed to be three films. People forget that because when Rick left in season nine - They announced right then and there was gonna be three films to conclude the whole story. But then Covid happened and I think that’s why they’re doing these little mini seasons instead of a film.

[@yvetterodriguez2550]

@@Ashley_e You know what would be cool? If this whole time Andy was busy filming for the show way before the pandemic hit. Just to show us the time passing by for his character. To see him change through time up until present day would be awesome. Same for Danai. I'm also interested in seeing Jadis and Rick and how it went down with them on their end. I want the backstory on them two cuz I'm guessing Rick is also leading a revolt on his side of whatever part of the world he's at and is acting like he's one of them, the CRM, to get much more info on what's going everywhere around the world. Not just about what's happened to the world but also with the walkers. I'm getting the feel that him and Jadis have a plan and it's all gonna come together back at square one: his people. That'd be sick. But first, I sure hope to see him find Maggie and Negan and see those 3 interact. I don't know what's gonna happen with Daryl or what the point is for having Norman do the spinoff. Last we saw, his character is trying to save Judith and his people. I can't picture him leaving or being far away from his family/friends. So something drastic has to happen for him to have a spinoff. Maybe he eventually ends up finding Maggie and Negan to then those 3 get saved by Rick and then all of them head back home to save their people and end the show with Rick saying there is a safe place close to what society use to look like and if they follow the train tracks it'll lead them to it. And this will be the finale. Of course the walkers will still be around but Rick will let them know they have the weapons and enough people to contain the walkers and take back the world.

I remember arguing with Negan fans when he first came into the story. But I do believe everyone deserves a second chance. "Forgive so that you may also be forgiven".

[@wrl_882]

Your right about Carl, he could drive us nuts but we miss him all the time. It's literally like raising a child. You love him but then get frustrated all the time with him. Also the more I watch, the more I worry for Judith

[@Son-Of-David1990]

15:39 you totally missed a cool reference with them whispering to eachother!

[@investmentguru9920]

[@teddysclips2391]

Has anyone else ever noticed that every grimes get shot….but it only happens once they receive or have had the hat not any time before kinda nervous for RJ

[@Tyler-gq6pf]

I like that "Labyrinth" hoodie and it is a good movie by the way. 🐬(dolphin)

[@mirtieraczo5842]

I didn't see this episode because I'm currently in a physical rehabilitation center and my roommate keeps her TV at heavy metal concert level volume so I cannot hear. I'm just going to wait until it's over to watch it. I'm here to request that you react to a show called Banshee. It aired on Cinemax from 2013 - 2016 and it is such a kickass show! I tell everyone who will listen to watch it and they all love it.. It's about a recently paroled master thief who assumes the identity of Sheriff Lucas Hood in Banshee, Pa., where his former lover and partner in crime relocated years ago and reinvented herself as Carrie Hopewell, the wife of the town's prosecutor. As Lucas attempts to reunite with Carrie and keep his past a secret, he resumes his life of crime, even as he's hunted by the shadowy gangsters he betrayed years earlier, including a mob boss who seeks revenge against Lucas and Carrie for the jewel heist that landed Lucas in prison. It's very explicit with a lot of sex and a lot of violence but I promise you, it is so good. Please consider reacting to it. I believe you can find it on Hulu. Just check our the first episode please, then you can decide. Thank you for any consideration.🙂

[@garyblackburn849]

Look, with the spinoffs coming up, we know what characters will make it for sure. Everyone else is on the chopping block, nobody else is safe. My guesses as to who dies: Lydia Jerry Elijah Connie Judith

[@Velshin1986]

Carol and Gabriel and Aaron

Judith Shove Maggie Out Of The Way To Save Her And She Took The Bullet Instead

[@BrianHeise1983]

Aaron telling Lydia she's "so loved" hits even harder when you remember he was so untrusting and so vehemently against her and adding her to the community back at the start of the whisperers saga. Like the look on his face is equal parts concern and apology.

[@mscdilly51]

OK so I was scrolling back through some old Nikki and Steve reactions and saw the Rick Grimes last episode. Poor Nikki was crying so hard 😭😭😭. But what really caught my attention was how FRIGGIN BUFFED STEVE IS NOW😳💪💪🏋‍♂️🏋‍♀️🏋 I was like daaayuuumm❗️❗️❗️

[@itsyourbasicmario919]

Nikki I love your makeup, is so good❤️

[@roycerambo6339]
