The Walking Dead: A New Deal (2022)
Season 11, Episode 18
8/10
The Founders Day
24 January 2024
Daryl has subdued Hornsby with his knife at his throat when Mercer, Pamela, Carol and Negan arrive. Carol explains that she made a deal with Pamela to clean the name of Sebastian and blame Hornsby for all the crimes. In return, she will provide all they need to rebuild Alexandria and Hilltop. Pamela tells the residents that Hornsby will be brought to justice. The group prepares to pack their stuffs to return to their communities in the Founders Day. However, Eugene and Max plot a plan to frame Sebastian during the party, and she records his words about the residents in Pamela's office. Meanwhile, Shira and Calhoun kill the cleaning crew in a corner following the orders of Hornsby. During the rally, Eugene plays the tape of Sebastian's words, and the cleaning crew resurrects bringing havoc to the population. Sebastian chases Max and pull her onto a walker, but Eugene saves her and Sebastian is bitten instead.

"New Deal" is a great episode of "The Walking Dead", since it is the end of the scum Sebastian. However, what was the intention of Eugene (always Eugene, the most stupid character in the whole series) and Max? Do they have a substitute for Pamela, or only intend to overthrow her? In a time of chaos, revolution does not seem to be a good plan to the people that was slaughtered by walkers. Carol had made a deal with Pamela that would help Alexandria and Hilltop. But Eugene, who betrayed the Alexandrians in the past joining Negan's group to make bullets for him, now has this incredible plan to create a riot that will certainly jeopardize his friends and offer no alternative. Sometimes the course of "The Walking Dead" disappoints. My vote is eight.
