cells: Rick, Maggie and Ezekiel rally their communities together to take down Negan. Gregory attempts to have the Hilltop residents side with Negan, but they all firmly stand behind Maggie. Using a large herd of walkers to their advantage, the group attacks the Sanctuary, taking down the fences and flooding the compound with walkers. With the Sanctuary defaced, Rick, Maggie, and Ezekiel's groups leave the compound while Gabriel reluctantly saves Gregory; Gabriel is left behind after Gregory abandons him. Surrounded by walkers, Gabriel hides in a trailer, where he is trapped inside with Negan.
