Yes, it’s another TWD spinoff, but centering it on the delicate relationship between Negan and Maggie makes for what the franchise does best.
’s Michelle Hurd, interrogates her. She fights her off and escapes just as Negan, the guy she was looking for, arrives at the bar. Maggie tells him that he is wanted by the “New Babylon Marshalls.” This is a new group/location. Later, we hear one of its guys named Perlie Armstrong describe it as a nice, safe couple of blocks. It’s not clear whether or not Negan lived there, but he is wanted for a crime he allegedly committed there. He’s been on the run from the Marshalls for some time.
Representatives from the New Babylon Marshalls show up at the bar. They torture the employees for information about Negan and then kill them for aiding and abetting a fugitive. Bye, Michelle Hurd! Meanwhile, Maggie and Negan observe smoke that is regularly admitted from a building and determine that it might be the Croat’s location.
Negan and Maggie creep through the empty city streets and are met not by the Croat’s men but by Perlie Armstong. He tries to humanize himself to Maggie so she won’t kill him. There’s that question of whether or not Maggie is a villain again. In the final scene, the Croat is called away to the roof of his lair. There, a bloody hostage is trying to escape. He scrambles like a carnival geek over the rooftops to a zipline, which the Croat cuts while the hostage is in midair. It seems like an awful way to die and an awful way to run a community. You let part of your infrastructure collapse just to watch one dude drop? Come on. I’m intrigued and I’m scared, but I’m not exactly impressed by him yet.
