Negan is back - and he's cleaning house after being left behind.
S8E15 served to remind us of just how formidable the Saviors' leader can be both combatively and tactically. It also reinforced his opinion on traitors.
We saw how Rosita and Daryl viewed traitors, too. With the war set to end next episode, has Negan put things in place for a deadly final attack? Check out our picks for the top five moments in "Worth."
5. Rick and Negan Read Carl's Letters
Technically Negan had it read to him, but still. Carl asked Rick to make a safe world where people could enjoy normal lives. Carl asked Negan for peace and told him it wasn't too late. Unfortunately, he didn't seem to agree.
4. Dwight Betrays Simon
Negan's return shocked many at the Sanctuary, especially the new man-in-charge. Despite being forgiven by Negan for massacring the scavengers, Simon urged Dwight to join him in overthrowing the returning boss. Dwight told, and Simon's plan was over before it began.
3. Eugene Gets the Traitor's Treatment
After being kidnapped by Daryl and Rosita, Eugene attempted to explain his betrayal by saying he was only trying to keep himself safe. They didn't take too kindly to his explanation, and hinted he'd have a grim future. He managed to escape then seemed motivated by his encounter to complete a new batch of ammo for Negan - is Eugene finally fully on the dark side?
2. Dwight's Betrayal is Exposed
Dwight's relationship with Negan seemed like it had never been better - up until he revealed his surprise. Thanks to Laura, he discovered Dwight's betrayal and pieced together his entire history of double-crossing. He also planted fake intel so Dwight would deliberately put Rick and the others in harm's way. What will be his fate? We aren't sure, but we bet it will be brutal.
1. Negan Kills Simon
To Negan's credit, he gave Simon a chance to overthrow him. The two went one-on-one, no weapons and no tricks. After a bloody back-and-forth battle, Negan came out on top, crushing his former right-hand man's windpipe and then putting his reanimated corpse on the fence. He also revealed he'd be killing the rest of the people at Hilltop as well. Negan is as ruthless as we've ever seen him. If he can do that to a man who was his closest associate, what will he do to Rick and the crew next week?
