1. Where did everyone from Alexandria go? How do they know the horde is coming? They all packed up and went to an abandoned hospital, which, for some reason, they keep calling "the tower". I'm not sure why, but the two has to be the same place because the EMERGENCY sign is shown to be on the main building, where they are, but at the same time, inside the building, Negan makes a direct comment on "moving to an abandoned tower". 2. Is Negan now being accepted by the Alexandrians? Does someone vouch for him? This isn't a specific topic. He's shown cooking, but he has no dialogue with anyone but Lydia. 3. Does Judith tell anyone about Michonne leaving to find Rick? What are their reactions? I don't think she told anyone. She tells Daryl that she spoke to Michonne after the fire and that she said she has to go help some people she met because they need her. Judith says nothing further about this, so I got the impression that up until that point, she hadn't told Daryl about her convo with Michonne at all. 4. What’s Judith and Daryl doing out in the woods? Judith tells him that she wants to learn what he does. Then, she gets upset over a Whisperer who Daryl abandons in a ditch. She tells Daryl she wants to be back home with her family. She's worried Michonne isn't coming back and she's worried Daryl would leave too. He tells her he can't promise otherwise because he can't lie to her, but that she has a whole lot of family back home. I think Daryl has some great lines in this scene. 5. What is Lydia doing in this episode? How does she react to Alpha’s death? Is Negan the one to tell her? She's busy sulking at the hospital. We don't see her first reaction because she seems to already know. But she's upset at Negan for trying to dictate her how she should be feeling or reacting. After snapping at him, he holds her and comforts her. 6. What do Judith and Lydia talk about? Judith tells her she's sorry about her mother's death, asks her if she misses her, Lydia tells her that not everyone gets to have a mom like Judith's. 7. Is Doggo still a good boy? VERY! He gets so many pettings from Carol. 8. Do Carol and Daryl talk? What do they discuss? They have no dialogue in this episode. Daryl is outside the whole time. 9. What happens with Aaron and Alden in the windmill? They are spying on Beta and the horde, making sure they are still headed for Oceanside, as expected. They stay on their tail to make sure they are on track, but when Beta and the horde change course, Aaron and Alden are apparently captured by the Whisperers. 10. Does anyone die? How? Daryl kills a Whisperer who has left the group on her own because she thinks Beta has "lost it" after what happened to Alpha. She begs Daryl to let her turn, but Daryl kills her because she has no useful information to give them. 11. What is Beta’s plan? Does he make it to Oceanside? We don't know. He seems to hear walkers talking to him in his head. He doesn't make it to Oceanside because he decides that they are not foolish and that they are expecting them, so they end up changing course for the hospital. 12. Do we learn anything about Connie’s fate? No. 13. Is Daryl aware that Magna made it out of the cave? This is not shown but I think he must be because Magna is at the hospital too. I assume Daryl also got there with everyone and then left by himself to walk the perimeter. 14. Is there a plan in place on how to deal with Beta and the horde? Yes, but we never find out what it is because apparently the plan needs the horde to be at Oceanside, but Beta changes direction and that's that. 15. What’s up with Princess in this episode? Do Eugene, Yumiko, and Ezekiel let her join them? Princess decides to take a detour and gets the gang in a mine field because she was having too much fun and didn't want it to end. Obviously, it backfires. She also promises them transportation, "wheels", which turn out to be bicycles. She gets on Yumiko's last nerve and has an arrow pointed at her face, so she tells them that she was just too scared they'd leave again. Eugene sympathizes with her and in the end, it's Yumiko who asks her to join them. 16. What happens during their journey? We leave things off with them once they ask Princess to join them. We don't see the rest of the journey. 17. Do they finally meet Stephanie? If so, what is she like? No. 18. Anything else interesting? - Carol and Kelly go outside to get some wiring from a car for Luke who is busy building something because "everyone is counting on him". Once outside on the road and inside the car, Carol apologizes to Kelly, Kelly says she believes Connie is alive and that she understands why Carol did all of it. - There's a cat in this episode and I think we're led to believe that the poor thing is the reason why Beta realizes that everyone is at the hospital. He sees the cat running in the forest and starts going off about "faith" and "reward". I think they follow the cat to the hospital. Extras: Didn’t see Rosita at the hospital. Gabriel is at the tower and we do see him there, learning sign language from Kelly and telling Dianne that it's her turn to watch. I didn't see RJ either. Regarding the ending of the episode: While Daryl and Judith are out in the woods, Daryl gets a radio call from Gabriel, but he's breaking up and Daryl can't hear him clearly. He mentions "being surrounded", and we see Beta with the enormous horde, approaching the hospital building.
