To say that the peace between the communities has gotten a little tense over the past two episodes would be an understatement, based on long-standing resentment aimed at the Sanctuary and the stink of Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) that still permeates it. Not helping matters is that a number of ex-Saviors have gone missing from Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) bridge-building project – and while it was initially written off as just a bunch of Negan followers who decided to move on to greener pastures, the growing number of missing is starting to make both sides nervous.
In the following preview for this week's episode of AMC's The Walking Dead, 'Warning Signs,' that nervousness has turned to paranoia and fear, as a number of the Sanctuary's residents go looking for answers – and find Maggie (Lauren Cohan) in the process:
The Walking Dead s09e03 'Warning Signs': Rick's vision for the future is threatened by a mysterious disappearance that divides the work camp where the communities are building a bridge.
Here's a look back at Bleeding Cool's review of last week's episode 'The Bridge':
Last season brought the culmination of "All Out War," which pitted Rick Grimes and his group of survivors against the Saviors and their cunning leader, Negan. With Negan's life in his hands, Rick had a character-defining choice in front of him. By making the unilateral decision to spare Negan, Rick upheld the values his late son, Carl, championed in order to build for the future, but created conflict within his group.
Now, we see our survivors a year and a half after the end of the war, rebuilding civilization under Rick's steadfast leadership. It is a time of relative peace among the communities as they work together, looking to the past to forge the future, but the world they knew is rapidly changing as man-made structures continue to degrade, and nature takes over, changing the landscape and creating new challenges for our survivors.

As time passes, the communities confront unexpected obstacles, danger, and of course, walkers, but nothing quite prepares them for the formidable force they are about to encounter, which threatens the very idea of civilization that our survivors have worked so hard to build.
