Will The Wolves & The Walkers Tear Down Alexandria? A Not-To-Be-Missed Episode Of 'The Walking Dead' On Oct. 25
It looks like the combined forces of the Wolves and the Walkers will manage to tear down the walls of Alexandria and Rick and his group will again be on the move. But how many will survive the attack by the walkers?
The second episode of Season 6 of "The Walking Dead" was phenomenal, to say the least. Not a single frame of Rick, yet the episode was rated by many as one of the top 10 episodes of "The Walking Dead" thus far.
At the end of the first episode, viewers saw with a sinking heart that Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) plan to lead the walkers away from Alexandria turns into a nightmare as the walkers, drawn by a blaring car horn, head straight towards Alexandria.
Episodes 1 and 2 take place simultaneously. The Wolves are attacking Alexandria while Rick and his group try to escape the walkers after the plan of leading the walkers away from Alexandria had the opposite effect.
The synopsis for Episode 3, which is titled "Thank You," consists of just seven words but nevertheless, it has an ominous tone. It simply states: "A return home doesn't go as expected."
The episode promo reveals that the next episode could be a game changer this season.
The promo shows Rick's group in a terrible state. Some are injured badly. Some are struggling to escape while Rick manages to kill some of the walkers, his voice-over coming in ragged breaths over shots of his group members trying to escape the zombie hordes.
"You have to keep going," Rick urges his group members. "No waiting. No hiding. Something's in front of you -- you kill it."
But it seems to get worse for the survivors. Viewers will see Heath trying to stand up while Glenn rushes to help another fallen member. But the walkers are close behind and there is no time to rest.
In a single shot, Rick is seen to be running desperately and alone. Is he going ahead and trying to warn Carol and the others in Alexandria?
In another shot, Rick has stopped and is examining his hand injury which was caused by a knife protruding from one of the walkers. What will happen to Rick?
Towards the end, viewers will see Michonne and some others hiding inside an abandoned building that is surrounded by the walkers.
The last shot is of hundreds of walkers falling all over each other and extending their hands. Have they reached Alexandria?
