Plot
'The Walking Dead' is a show based on the comic series of the same name, created by Robert Kirkman.
On April 3, 2016, Season 6 of the TV show aired. In this episode, the main group are attacked by the 'Saviours', one of the enemy factions in the show. The ending of the episode and season entirely revealed the new character, Negan Smith, played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Negan decides to pick a random person out of the group to kill, which ended on a cliffhanger, not showing who was killed by him.
Before Season 7 aired, many people were deducing who would be killed off. 11 members of the group were lined up and the promo for Season 7 always focused on who Negan killed. The premiere of Season 7 aired on October 23, 2016, where it was revealed that two members of the group, Abraham Ford (Michael Cudlitz) and Glenn Rhee (Steven Yeun), were killed off.
Additionally, in the premiere of Season 7, there is a scene where Rick Grimes begins hallucinating about the other members being killed off by Negan. In this, we see Rosita, Daryl, Michonne, Maggie, Sasha, Aaron, Carl, and Eugene being bludgeoned to death.
Found/Lost Scenes
- There are three alternate versions of the death scenes and who Negan would have killed. Those three are Abraham and Glenn, Maggie and Aaron, and Eugene and Aaron.
- The Abraham and Glenn scenes are included in the broadcast of the episode and were the ones chosen by the show's producers. It is unclear if this was always the choice they were going with.
- There is an extended scene on an alternate death scene where Maggie is killed off by Negan. This one was found but is speculated to be used as a way for AMC to stop people from leaking the reveal. This can be found on YouTube but the quality is poor.
- In this video, we see Negan pick Maggie. Glenn begs and pleads for Negan to kill him instead. Glenn is knocked out by one of the soldiers. Negan then hits Maggie with his baseball bat. Maggie gets back up and spits blood at Negan before she is hit again, where the video cuts off. There is a black/grey bar in the middle of the video which obstructs the video.
- There is also speculation that after Maggie is killed off and when the video abruptly ends, Aaron, one of the members, tells Negan that she was pregnant to which Negan responds "That sucks, a 2 for 1 deal". Aaron is then killed off by Negan. This claim is not credible and has been a rumour on platforms like Reddit and YouTube.
- In this video, we see Negan pick Maggie. Glenn begs and pleads for Negan to kill him instead. Glenn is knocked out by one of the soldiers. Negan then hits Maggie with his baseball bat. Maggie gets back up and spits blood at Negan before she is hit again, where the video cuts off. There is a black/grey bar in the middle of the video which obstructs the video.
- There is no found footage containing Eugene or Aaron's death scenes.
