The Walking Dead finally took us back to the Sanctuary to check in on Negan, Gabriel, Eugene, Dwight, and all the rest of those shifty Saviors. After several episodes of non-stop battles, things slowed down and we actually got some conversations. Simon tried to sniff out the rat in Sanctuary, Eugene blabbed about pickles for way longer than he needed to, and then there was Father Gabriel trying to … save Negan’s soul?
We’ve seen some pretty far-fetched stuff on The Walking Dead, but that probably takes the cake. But one thing we can always rely on? People hating Gregory.
Ugh, Gregory's still breathing.#TheWalkingDead pic.twitter.com/8JunFl09Im

Now back to that confession business from Gabriel. At first, the whole thing was almost exasperating but we got to give him credit, he cracked Negan’s nut by the end … only to get his nose cracked by Negan in return.
Okay Father Gabriel that was a creepy smile #TheWalkingDead pic.twitter.com/GwQd4DZZcj

This show ain't long enough for all of Negan's confession, best go straight for the exorcism #TWD #TWDFamily #TheWalkingDead

Meanwhile, inside Sanctuary, the Savior leadership starts to splinter as (correct) assumptions are made about a mole in their midst. And of course, Eugene is suspect number one.

As a token of my appreciation, I brought you some primo cukes from my private stash. I’d like you to accept these as a sign of my faith that we will in fact find a way out of this pickle. Pun intended. #TheWalkingDead pic.twitter.com/Qm7WKpf6e5

And who would have thought that we’d see a brawl between Rick and Daryl? The tension has been mounting between the two with Daryl’s new attitude towards killing souring their relationships. But is Daryl really getting ‘worse’ or is Rick just getting squeamish about what needs to be done?

Who’d have thought Gabriel would turn things around with the viewers like that? He’s truly managed to redeem himself and fulfill his purpose.
