Welcome back, everybody!!! IT'S THE SEASON FINALE!!! Who do you think will make it to the end? I'm really hoping Negan bites it tonight. I've really had all I can take of this guy. Sure, I love Jeffrey Dean Morgan, but I hate Negan, and he can take Eugene with him. I officially hate that dude. He is in the boat with Lori and Andrea. He's got to go...

Opening with Rick and little Carl on a farm. I'm still ticked that they killed Carl. I could do without the closeups of the walkers. Where is the little Savior Alden going? Siddiq telling Rick about his mother's story, and he is telling him about Carl getting bit. He said that Carl died paying respect to a woman he never knew, but it was dangerous. Jerry and Ezekiel talking philosophy. Daryl thinks that Dwight might be setting them up. Morgan is hearing things. That's not a good sign, and he almost killed Henry. He has slipped. Maggie tells the Saviors they are staying behind. Rick tells Morgan that maybe he should stay. Morgan tells Rick that they are worse than they were. He tells Rick that he has crossed into the wrong because they have lost everything good. Rick says they haven't. He says that they have lost everything so let's finish it. They have all left Hilltop.

Dwight has been demoted to one of those dirty jogging suits and from the looks been beaten. Of course, the weasel Eugene has arrived with bullets. He is giving tips. Eugene is volunteering, and Negan is taking Gabriel with him, and then telling them that he sacrificed a group of his own men to give fake intel to Rick. Now, Morgan is now seeing Jared. Rick and the crew found the other map that is a fake. Gabriel just threw himself out of the moving car, because that's a good idea. What does he think he is going to do? HE IS BLIND!!!! I mean what is the plan, Gabriel?

Where is he going to go with no peripheral vision? Of course, Eugene is the one who catches him. Negan hits him in the bat. Now, Jesus and Morgan are talking. Jesus what are you talking about? Jesus tells him to use the pointed end for the dead, and the dull end for the living. Saviors are attacking the Hilltop, and Negan just announced to our guys that they are surrounded. He is telling him that Dwight set them up not on purpose. He is going to let Dwight watch them die, and he is going to kill Gabriel, too. Eugene set up all the Saviors with bad bullets!!!! The fight is on!!! Negan is on the run!!! The Hilltop guys have left. The Hilltop Saviors are going to help Tara slow down the Saviors. Jesus is able to get through to the MOrgan about killing. Bombs are going off outside Hilltop. Aaron and Oceanside arrived and are bombing the Saviors!! What? Negan's people are surrendering? Rick is chasing Negan, but he is out of bullets. Negan is hiding behind a tree, and he hits Rick in the gut. There is so much going on right now!!!!

They are in hand to hand combat, and you know Negan is not going to fight fair. What's with the stain glassed windows. Rick tells him that his people have surrendered. Rick is also hurt badly. Rick is trying to compromise with this dude. He tells Negan they don't have to fight. He used one of the broken stain glass window panes to slit Negan's throat. He tells him that Carl didn't know what he was talking about. Maggie wants Negan dead, but Rick is telling them that Negan is still alive, that all of of this is for what. He tells them all to go home, and let's start over. He says that there has to be something after. Rosita asked Eugene if he did the sabotage. He says he did. Then, she punched him for the puke. Morgan takes off his armor and tells Carol to give it to Henry. Rick is under the tree asking for forgiveness. This is so freaking corny. The war is over, and no one important died. Seriously, this is...Negan should be dead, Rick. I'm with Maggie. 

Alden wants to stay behind and help build the Hilltop. They are helping the Sancutary people put their stuff back together. What is Daryl up to with Dwight? He brought Dwight back to where he killed Denise. Dwight says that he knows that he has to pay. He was just happy to see Negan taken down. He apologizes to Daryl. Daryl gives him the keys to the truck and tells him to leave, find Sherry, and never come back, or he will kill him. Morgan has arrived at the trash heap. He tells Jadis that Rick wants her to come to Hilltop. He tells her that she does not want to be alone. Jadis tells him her name is Anne. He tells her that he is going to stay. That he needs to. Dwight finds Sherry's note. Ezekiel, Jerry, Carol, and Henry have arrived back at the Kingdom. Maggie and Jesus and talking, she is going to build up Hilltop, but she believes that Rick and Michonne are wrong about Negan, and she is going to show them. Daryl comes out of the dark to agree with them. Michonne and Rick have Negan captive. They are going to put him in a cell for the rest of his life. He is going to get to see them rebuild. He is going to be a symbol of the wrong way. Gabriel is back at his church in Alexandria. He thanks God, and he says he understands now, and he can see. Rick is writing a letter to Carl. He said he helped him remember who he was. He said that he showed them a new world and how to live in it. Sigh...

I'm not sure how I feel about this ending, but the war is over. Negan is still alive and, probably, plotting. Maggie, Jesus, and Daryl are definitely plotting to kill Negan. Michonne and Rick are going to start a new world...until the next bad guy comes along. It's been a season, y'all!!! Enjoy Fear the Walking Dead, see you guys in October!!!!!

Welcome back, everybody!!! Last week, we had a little issue with the old cable company, and well, hopefully, all the problems have been rectified. Only one more episode until the season finale. 

Opens with Rick reading Carl's letter and looking at Judith. Awwww, Carl is reading it, and reminiscing about the happy days with family before the fall. Jerry walking with the littlest baby. Showing everybody in the calm before the storm. He is talking about everybody finding a way to peace. That if Negan won't do it, that he should. Carl wants the killing to stop. So, Michonne is about to read what Carl wrote to Negan, huh, why did she wait this long. It wasn't like Rick has been around to stop her. 

Of course, Gregory is back with the Saviors and talking to Simon. I hate this dude. Oh, so Simon thinks he's in charge, and he does not know that Negan is back. Uh-oh, so stuff is going to hit the fan tonight. Speaking of stuff, Gregory has a ton of it coming out of his mouth right now. Simon is like, dude, you are a dead man. Wow, this speech Gregory!!! That big talk lasted all of five seconds. He is going to be coffee boy for Simon. Dumb. The ladies of Oceanside has said that Aaron is on his own. Eugene is still making these people eat some mac and cheese and sardines...eww. He has turned into a boss who is trying to boss the guys into the number of bullets they need to keep Simon. He has Gabriel masked up. Gabriel is trying to screw up the bullets. Gabriel is falling back to the scared Gabriel. Ugh...Eugene has taken him off the line and told him to go sit in the corner and keep his crying to a minimum. LOL...Rosita and Daryl have kidnapped Eugene. A whistle, and Dwight sees that Negan is back. Dwight told him Simon was number two, and he was just following Simon. He tells him to remember this conversation when the time comes. 

Ha, Simon, Negan's home. He is talking about screwing up Hilltop. He doesn't know that Negan knows about the Heapsters. Negan says that he should have taken out Simon in the beginning. He makes Simon get on his knees and tells him all is forgiven. They want to keep Hilltop cut off. Negan plans to try to snipe them until they are scared to leave. He holds Dwight back and sends the rest off. I think Negan picked up that girl savior who got away from Dwight. I think Dwight is going to die tonight. 

Eugene is already getting on Daryl's nerves. Eugene is trying to justify his becoming "Negan." Eugene blames Rick. Rosita says he'll live, but they will keep him for his knowledge. Someone may be in the bushes watching them. Dwight is still in spy mode, but in comes Simon, who still wants to take over the Sanctuary after Negan let him go. Simon is planning a mutiny against Dwight. Dwight is siding with Simon? What? One or both of them is dead tonight.

Eugene is up to...eww, he just threw up all over Rosita. Of course, he is hiding in the ashes. Whatever happens to Eugene now, I'm done with him. Walkers are stalking Aaron, who at this point is running on fumes. Yet, Aaron took out five of the Walkers, before he wakes up to the ladies of Oceanside. He gives them a King Theoden fight speech before passing out again.

Dwight is back where he started earlier tonight. Simon and his mutiny crew with Gregory...LOL...really? This is the crew that is going to take out Negan. Simon wants to take out Negan and then destroy the Hilltop. Dwight turned on Simon...LOL. Whooo. Took out the whole crew except Dwight and Gregory. Simon asked Dwight why. Dwight says Negan would win. Now, Negan tells Simon that he knows about the garbage people. Then, he goes all Ric Flair. To be the man you've got to beat the man. Simon is still talking trash as he is about to fight Negan. Negan is holding up well considering he's been in a wreck and a fight, and Gregory is trying to sneak out. For Real Dwight, you are going to trust Gregory? Well, Negan just choked Simon to death. 

This commercial for next week's The Walking Dead with Negan bringing Gabriel as a hostage reminds me of Hershel. Gregory actually came back to Hilltop and brought the map that Dwight gave him. Now, Dwight and Negan are together in the bowels of the Sanctuary, and Negan has "made him his right hand man." I knew it!!! I knew that's who he picked up. The girl who escaped. She has told on Dwight. Negan used Gregory to send his fake plan. He said he thought about killing Dwight, but he has some other plans for Dwight. Negan wants the bullet order filled by tomorrow morning. Eugene is full Negan, and he will fulfill his orders. Man, Negan put Simon on the fence. Michonne is talking to Negan. She tells him to shut and listen. She is reading Carl's letter to Negan. He said the same thing to Negan that he said to Rick. Negan said that he will not accept their surrender. He only wants them dead. That Rick started this, and their destruction is the only way to start over. Season Finale Next Week!!!! Looks like they are meeting on the battle field!!!

Who is Jadis hiding? She's pretending to be dead as they kill her people. She has an Ikea room in one of the containers? Why does she have Negan's bat? FYI, I am hating CableOne right now. They are giving me a thousand reasons to cut the cord. She has Negan tied to a rolling dolly.

Carol and Ezekiel are talking. Ezekiel wants to look for Henry, and Carol does not want to go. Ezekiel can not believe that she does not want to go. He tells her that he thought she was brave, but she is a coward. Tara tells Daryl that she is clean, and Dwight used a clean arrow. Daryl still does not trust Dwight. Now, Michonne is reading Carl's letter and offers it to Rick to read, but he does not. Rick reveals to Michonne that he has not read Carl's letter. She told him that she did the same thing when it happened to her. She tells him that Andrea stopped her, and she is going to stop him. He's not leaving until he reads the letter. Morgan is off to find Henry and Ezekiel. Carol decides she is going with Morgan. Maggie and the rest are now meeting to see about the Saviors. They believe they don't have enough ammo. Rosita reminds them about Eugene "the bullet maker." Negan tells Jadis that the murder of her people wasn't part of his plan. She doesn't need to hear that as she puts the bat next to his head to shut it up

Missed a piece sorry guys, but I came back to Morgan and Carol trying to pick up Henry's trail. Rick decides to go after the Saviors after seeing Carl's hat. Alden (finally got his name) the "good savior" tells Rick about the dive bar. Negan is mostly loose now and has a gun and flare as Jadis pushes a corpse between him and her. I messed up with this segment. Sorry guys, important phone call. Hopefully, I will not miss any more.

Morgan and Carol have come across a walker herd. They see a Walker coming toward them impelled with Henry's stick. Morgan is determined to continue after he killed the walker. Morgan tells Carol she saves people, and he watches them die. Carol tells him that he knew that she could come back, and she knows that he can come back, too. Morgan says that he has to be the one to kill Henry. Jadis and Negan are discussing as Negan threatens to burn her pictures which is all she has left of her people. He tells Jadis that the bat was named after his wife Lucille. There is a helicopter. What is this? Jadis signaled, but it's gone. He tells her that he can settle the debt, and she does not burn the bat. Rick comes across the herd and Morgan. Morgan's cheese has definitely slid off the cracker. Rick tells Morgan that he is out there for them and to finish it. They will finish it together. They see a hand and leg, and then Rick gets knocked out.

Rick and Morgan have been captured by the runaway Saviors. Jared needs to die. For reals. They think that is they give Rick and Morgan to Negan that they will have a win. The other Saviors want out. Rick is trying to convince them that his way is a way to a fresh start for all of them. Jared, of course, does not believe them. Rick is telling them a herd is on the way. Jared is telling them that he saw Morgan kill one of his own men. Morgan agrees saying that he came here to kill all of them, but that the herd is still coming, and he should save his bullets. He says it doesn't matter because everybody turns, and here comes the herd. Finally somebody knocks the crap out of Jared. The other Saviors free Rick and Morgan. Then, Rick and Morgan killed the Saviors, except Jared who is trying to escape. Morgan sees him though. Jared sucker punches Morgan and has him down, but Morgan throws him off and locks him in with the walkers who summarily eat him. One Savior is still alive, and Rick tells him that he lied and put a bullet in his head. Morgan walks past Rick saying "Everybody turns." Rick tells Morgan that he saved him. He asked him why did Morgan save him. Morgan tells Rick that he saved him because his son was there. Rick is looking at himself covered in blood in a broken mirror.

Negan tells Jadis that she did not lose her. He insists that she tell him about the helicopter. He tells her to come with him. She chooses to stay. Carol has found Henry. She apologizes and says that he can survive. I thought Zeke went out to look. Carol brought him back. 

Carol and Zeke holding hands, and Morgan and Rick made it back. Morgan told Henry that he killed the men who killed his brother. Henry apologizes for that. Morgan ends crying alone. Jadis brings in a suitcase. As she contemplates. Negan picks up a hitchhiker. He tells the guards that they are to keep it quiet. Rosita and Daryl have found Eugene's warehouse. Rick has showered. He thanks Michonne and tells her he is sorry and that he loves her. She leaves him alone to read Carl's letter. Episode ends with Rick reading the letter. Only two episodes left...

Until next week...
