“The Walking Dead” Season 8B Synopsis
All
out war has had a devastating impact on every person involved. The
communities themselves are fractured. Alexandria has been destroyed, the
Hilltop finds themselves pinned, and the Kingdom is shattered -- half
of them dead, the other half controlled by the Saviors.
At
the very center -- Rick, having been distracted by the conflict, has
just returned home to learn that Carl, who heroically shepherded the
Alexandrians to safety during Negan's attack, has been bitten by a
walker. Once his sole motivation in this otherwise stark existence,
Rick is forced to deal with this reality. Carl has always been a beacon
of hope, a symbol for the remaining thread of humanity -- lessons that
the survivors around him would be wise to take with them as this war
surges onward.
But
Rick isn't the only person who's living in peril. Aaron and Enid are in
a dire situation at Oceanside -- unclear if they're in friendly
territory, or if they've just made new enemies. Father Gabriel will do
his part in attempting to smuggle Dr. Carson safely back to the Hilltop
and a pregnant Maggie is wrestling with the many moral gray areas that
come with leadership during war. In a standoff with the Saviors, she
must decide how to proceed with the dozens of POW lives she's currently
in control of, as well as new complications that come with being a
leader.
In
addition to the war, Negan continues to deal with struggles within his
ranks as workers, traitors, and others' thirst for power cause conflict
at the Sanctuary. Having gifted the Saviors a major victory, Eugene's
loyalty is repeatedly tested as new obstacles present themselves.
As
all-out-war consumes us, the line between good and evil continues to
blur. People fighting for what they believe in. Everybody working
together for something bigger -- to feel safe and have a world worth
living in.
