One look at Sasha in this moment, and it’s clear: This is a person who is ready for war.Once again, THE WALKING DEAD premiered its next episode, titled “Go Getters”, last Sunday night. As if Sasha’s new status as a battle commander wasn’t already obvious at that point, she’s seen later in the episode sharpening a knife and smoking Abraham’s last remaining cigar. What’s more, Sasha makes Jesus promise to keep the plan between them for now - no Gregory, obviously, but also no Maggie.

She’s not only keeping a watchful eye on Maggie, but also making plans to strike back against Negan: Sasha commands Jesus to follow the Saviors back to their compound, so they can find out how to locate Negan if needed. Like Maggie, Sasha’s embodying the spirit of her departed loved one, specifically Abraham’s protective and proactive nature. Maggie - Maggie Rhee.” It’s a powerful moment for the widowed heroine, someone Jesus later identifies as a person who could one day lead the Hilltop.

Maggie punches Gregory across the face, and makes her new name and purpose heard loud and clear: “This is our home now, so you’ll learn to start calling me by my name.

Jesus finally convinces Gregory to let Maggie and Sasha stay at the Hilltop, but it’s not all water under the bridge. He protected Maggie and Sasha out of self-interest, as he would have been the first person Simon killed on learning about the two Alexandrians in the Hilltop’s midst. Of course, Gregory wasn’t acting out of kindness. Simon identifies himself as Gregory’s very own Negan, and Gregory makes tribute to the man by offering him a secret stash of booze - just as it appeared that Gregory was about to surrender Maggie and Sasha instead. He owns responsibility for the previous night’s assault on the Hilltop, which was meant to remind Gregory about the “service” the Saviors provide. Simon takes Gregory aside for a very tense conversation. The next morning, Negan’s lieutenant Simon (Steven Ogg) and several Saviors show up at the Hilltop. But Sasha and Jesus’ hand-to-hand combat skills, combined with Maggie using a tractor to crush the armored car, are more than enough to win the day. It’s an unusually chaotic scene: An armored car sits in the center of the compound blasting music, as the dead pour in through the Hilltop’s open gates. Alongside fellow ass-kicker Jesus (Tom Payne), the three seasoned zombie killers join together to battle back a walker assault on the Hilltop. Night falls, and Sasha and Maggie quickly prove their worth to the Hilltop. Since he’s “a good guy,” Gregory allows Maggie and Sasha to spend one last night in the community before hitting the road in the morning. He’s furious that Rick (Andrew Lincoln) couldn’t handle the Saviors, and he thinks Maggie and Sasha are only going to cause more trouble. There’s just one problem: Gregory wants them gone. Now that she’s back on her feet, Maggie joins Sasha by Glenn and Abraham’s burial sites, solidifying their desire to stay at the Hilltop. Keith Harris) assures Maggie that she hasn’t lost her baby, and she won’t if she takes it easy and stays at the Hilltop. The episode begins with Maggie waking up, finally conscious for the first time in days.
