The Walking Dead Season 8, Episode 7 Preview: Negan Talks Survival With Eugene
With Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) army of The Kingdom, The Hilltop, Alexandria and others surrounding The Sanctuary and wave after wave of walkers covering every viable escape route, Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and The Saviors are seeing "All Out War" slip through their fingers with each passing minute. But Negan isn't one to go down without a fight, and his lucky rabbit's foot in all of this might just be the brawny brain of Eugene Porter (Josh McDermitt). So as the following sneak preview from AMC's The Walking Dead shows us, Negan decides to spend a little "quality time" with Eugene to remind him of the bigger-picture importance of them staying alive:
The Walking Dead 807 'Time for After': Negan has to enlist the help of his lieutenants in solving a huge issue facing the Sanctuary; Rick and the group continue to enact the plan.
Here is AMC's official synopsis for The Walking Dead Season 8:
"Last year, Rick Grimes and his group of survivors were confronted with their deadliest challenge yet. With the comfort of Alexandria, they let their guard down, only to be reminded how brutal the world they live in can be. The introduction of Negan and the Saviors broke our group.
Feeling powerless under Negan's rules and demands, Rick advocated the group play along. But seeing that Negan couldn't be reasoned with, Rick began rallying together other communities affected by the Saviors. And with the support of the Hilltop and Kingdom, they finally have enough fire power to contest the Saviors.
This year, Rick brings 'All Out War' to Negan and his forces. The Saviors are larger, better-equipped, and ruthless — but Rick and the unified communities are fighting for the promise of a brighter future. The battle lines are drawn as they launch into a kinetic, action-packed offensive.
Up until now, survival has been the focus of Rick and our group, but it's not enough. They have to fight to take back their freedom so that they can live. So that they can rebuild. As with any battle, there will be losses. Casualties. But with Rick leading the Alexandrian forces, Maggie leading the Hilltop, and King Ezekiel leading the Kingdom — Negan and the Saviors' grip on this world may finally be coming to an end."
