While war with the Whisperers continues to rage on in Season 10 of The Walking Dead, it’s not the only animosity on display in the series. In an exclusive clip from Sunday’s episode, titled “Silence the Whisperers,” it’s Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) taking the brunt of the aggression from the Alexandrians–specifically Daryl (Norman Reedus).
A description of the episode reads, “Still paranoid Alexandrians get riled up over the Whisperers and take their fear out on Negan. Back at Hilltop, the group deals with an unexpected safety issue.” What a difference a couple of seasons and some massive time jumps make in reshaping the show. While once upon a time, Negan was the man to be feared after he brutally killed Glenn (Steven Yeun) and Abraham (Michael Cudlitz), he’s seemingly the victim of his fellow Alexandrians these days.
In the clip above, Negan’s close relationship with Lydia (Cassady McClincy) is shown and it’s something Daryl is not happy about. It’s not hard to blame him, though, given his personal history with Negan’s old friend–the barbed wire back named Lucille that he used to smash in the heads of Daryl’s fellow survivors.
“She’s just trying to fit in,” Negan said in the clip, explaining his talk with Lydia. Quickly, Daryl fired back, “Yeah, well, that ain’t ever gonna happen if she hangs out with you, now it is?” Then, without a second thought, he stormed away.
Clearly tensions are high in Alexandria where Negan’s presence is concerned. It’s enough to make you wonder whether he’ll ever earn the trust of those he lives with–or even if he even deserves to.
The next episode of The Walking Dead airs Sunday, October 27 at 9 PT ET on AMC.
