Irishmaple November 18, 2017 Share November 18, 2017 The familiar eyes have to be those of Eugene, I suppose. Poor Father Gabriel is stuck with Negan and likely considering a quick death by zombie horde.

AllyS November 20, 2017 Share November 20, 2017 Well, I'm looking forward to tonight's episode! I am just thrilled they added 13 minutes more. I sure hope it's filled with Negan explaining himself, and FPP (or FSP's) asking for Negan's "confession" or redemption. Or, FPP just runs into the mass walker horde to spare himself. I know I would, and I have a few vodka and club sodas to prepare me for the hilarity which may ensue!!!
