Norman Reedus in ep 709 The Walking Dead (Gene Page/AMC)

Daryl
(Norman Reedus)



Poor Daryl. He really gets the snot kicked out of him in this season. Negan bashes Glenn’s skull in when Daryl shows resistance, and Lucille takes retribution. Because of this defiance, Negan takes Daryl to the Sanctuary to break him. Locking him in a cell and torturing him, it seems Negan succeeds when he brings Daryl with him to Alexandria, and Daryl is just a shell of his former self. He could also be playing possum, though. A moment comes when someone leaves Daryl’s cell unlocked (who?), and he escapes after caving in Fat Joey’s (Joshua Hoover) skull. Where is he? At the Hilltop reunion.
