The Walking Dead season 11: Is Negan falling back into old patterns in episode 22? recap

• “The Walking Dead” continues to build revolution in the Commonwealth with Episode 22 of Season 11.
• Eugene stands trial while Negan and company need a good plan to escape the Commonwealth labor camp.
• Meanwhile, Lydia makes a terrifying discovery.

In episode 22 of “The Walking Dead” season 11, Negan, Ezekiel, Annie, Princess, Magna and Kelly are still prisoners in a Commonwealth labor camp. They plan to use the guards’ shift rotations to escape, but Negan takes on the guards.

Ultimately, Negan’s plan is to be taken to the camp warden. He can quickly assess him, because he reminds him of his own past. He develops his own plan and wants to sacrifice himself as a martyr for the group.

Negan is taken to an execution site, but the warden decides otherwise at short notice. He now also wants to kill Negan’s pregnant wife Annie. But the Ezekiel and many other ex-Alexandrians stand protectively in front of the two and appeal to the humanity of the soldiers. One of the Commonwealth gunmen actually turns on his colleagues and his superior.

But the supervisor takes Kelly hostage and tries to disappear. Just in time, Daryl, Carol, and Connie show up. Daryl kills the warden and saves Kelly.

News from Lydia, Aaron and Co.

Lydia, Aar on, Jerry and Elijah left some time ago to see what happened to the o ther settlements they knew. They meet Luke and Jules from Oceanside, who reports that the Commonwealth has also occupied their home. Also, the Commonwealth is hunting them down.

And sure enough, soldiers soon appear. Lydia returns to her Whisperers origins and the group disguises themselves in stray clothing to blend in unnoticed with a herd of zombies. When she accidentally drops her knife, something shocking happens: one of the zombies picks it up. The undead is probably one of the more intelligent variants that Aaron and the others had to get to know in the abandoned amusement park.

Eugene’s trial

Meanwhile, Eugene stands trial in the Commonwealth for the murder of Sebastian Milton. Yumiko tries to defend him, but it quickly becomes clear that the judge is on the side of Governor Pamela Milton. Yumiko desperately tries to get Mercer on her side, but he refuses. The trial ends with Eugene being found guilty and sent to prison.

But in prison he is intercepted by Mercer. He has now decided to help Eugene.

So the last two episodes of “The Walking Dead” promise a lot of action. With Mercer on their side, Max and Eugene are sure to lead the Commonwealth into revolution. You can see the new episodes every Monday on Disney + in the stream and on ProSieben Fun on pay TV.
