Pope's psycho ex-military staff is powerful, however as villainous gangs go, they do not place up there with the Saviors or the Whisperers in regards to muscle, chaos, or a charismatic leader; a lot of the dramatization in that storyline thus far is carried by Daryl and also Leah, as we ask yourself if she's as well far gone to be redeemed. But below, it's long-lost Connie and Virgil that deliver one of the show's most traumatic, truly frightening stories in a long, very long time.

But when finger nail abuse swiftly rises to cutting fingers, Daryl has a hard time not to break personality. His efforts to get Frost to spill is virtually absurd: "So simply say an area so we can all walk away pleased!" Why will not Frost simply make something up? Certain, he might be a dead man later on, but at the very least it might purchase him as well as Daryl time. Rather, Frost discloses the actual area of the safe house. His reward for honesty: Pope ultimately eliminates him and links his zombified body to a tree.
Almost as strained as the search of Maggie's safe house is the consistent bickering in between Daryl and Carver, Leah's right-hand hit man. Both Reaping machines have a limited bond, having promised always to have each's various other's back, as they say. Carter appears to have sensations that run deeper than combat zone bonding, but then again, as Leah notes, he likewise let her walk right into a shack that will be heated. To be reasonable to Carter, his instincts are instead on factor: He's suspicious of Daryl's motives (as he must be) as well as thinks something's wrong inside your home (as proven by the trap door he discovers under a rug). Carter's enmity forces Daryl to step up his thespian video game: He promises Leah that he's only below for her and also admits that although Pope frightens the shit out of him, Daryl will trust him if Leah claims to do so. This speech acquires Maggie's crew enough time to flee, yet Daryl and Leah's future isn't looking rosy. As Frost winces on that tree, Daryl looks just as worried regarding her ruthlessness as his chum's demise.
