Overview

• Maggie and Hershel escape a methane-bomb ambush on a New Babylon ferry, which was orchestrated by Negan and the Croat under the Dama's orders.
• Hershel's smoke signal, created from burning tires, tipped off the Croat to the New Babylon plan, a detail Maggie deduces from his use of the same cloth as a tourniquet.
• Negan, under the Dama's coercion, leads Manhattan's gangs to resist New Babylon's invasion, though his actions spare Hershel during the attack.
• The Dama demonstrates her ruthlessness by killing Victor with a pen in front of Negan, asserting her control and disregard for loyalty.
• Maggie and the surviving New Babylon troops, including Hershel, regroup and head toward Central Park, setting the stage for further developments.
