Things have ramped up to defcon 5 between the Saviors and...everyone. This is The Walking Dead I love!

Spoilers ahead.

Ezekiel and Michonne are officially together.

Eugene, and crew, is working double-time to fill the bullet supply.

The combined forces of Hilltop, Sanctuary, and The Kingdom attack the Saviors.

The plan is for Rick to crash the gate to allow a horde of zombies to crash the Saviors' castle. At the last minute, Holly (Abraham's second girlfriend) hijacks the plan and crashes the gate instead, allowing Rick to escape with the rest of the group. She's captured by the Saviors.

The group then splits up to go clear out the Saviors' outposts.

One of Negan's men approaches Holly with the intention of raping her. Just in the nick of time, Negan sweeps in and kills him, effectively becoming her Savior (pun intended). I think Sasha was the one that Negan protected in the show.

Maggie stands up to Gregory. By doing so, she inadvertently places herself in the position of leader.

Eric dies.

Meanwhile, the groups continue to eliminate the Saviors' outposts. Ezekiel's group takes heavy losses, including the loss of Shiva.

Ezekiel experiences a leadership crisis due to the guilt of those he lost. Michonne literally punches him in the face to get him to snap out of it.

The Saviors' attack Sanctuary, grenades and bullets included. Negan then "returns" Holly with a bag over her head. Once the bag is removed, they realize she turned. She bites Denise; Heath is injured by a grenade while he's trying to get to Denise.

Just when it seems all hope is lost, Dwight takes a stand and kills the Saviors around him. Maggie arrives with a group from Hilltop.

I'd rate this an R for violence, swearing, and other adult themes.
