Previously
on Dead City...

It's methane.
From the sewers.

You get your
kid. We kill the psycho.

Everybody wins a prize.

Ginny!

Let's go!

This way, come on!

Negan!

I know who you want.

I think we bought ourselves
a little bit of time.

The sewers.

We can get out
through the sewers.

Let's go!

These look recent.

These ones are.

Fresh deposits to
his methane bank.

He called it feeding the beast.

So this is what hotboxing
dead people looks like.

Yeah, and smells like.

Did anyone see what
happened to Negan?

- Mm-mm.
- Nah.

Who's the kid?

She's with me.

Hey, you got a name?

She don't talk much.

Doesn't follow orders, either.

Thought I had an
extra flashlight.

We have one. Here.

Yo, yo, I got it, I got it.

Here.

- This is all my fault.
- Hey.

- I pushed us to attack them.
- Amaia, Amaia, stop.

- No, I must've missed something.
- Hey.

I should've thought
this through.

Don't do this to
yourself, all right?

The Burazi, they knew.

Hey, we don't got time to
wonder how we got here.

We just need to focus on

getting the hell out, all right?

Yeah. I'm good.

Hey, your heart starts pounding,

feels like there's a jackhammer
going off in your head...

Let's go.

... can't
keep your eyes open

or you feel like
you're gonna puke,

that's the methane kicking in.
That's when we start running.

Just be cautious.

Your boat's sunk by now.

The guy back at the arena,

he's got the whole
island on lockdown.

You do remember I saved
your ass back there.

Whatever that was had
nothing to do with me,

and everything to do
with you and your friend.

He ain't my friend.

Anyway,

you saving me doesn't bring back

the magistrate
that you did kill,

or the four other men with him.

Those assholes, they
damn near killed my wife.

If you had seen what she
looked like when I found her,

well, I guarantee
you'd done the same.

Hey!

Come on.

Come on.

Out back.

Aw, shit.

Yo, Amaia. Check this out.

What the hell is that?

No idea.

Oh, oh...

Ugh...

Oh, I think it's fat.

- Ugh.
- Ginny!

Yo.

Manholes are sealed!

You trying to go after
Negan? Is that it?

He wanted you to
stay at the Bricks.

We were so close!

You don't even know him.

What do you think
he's wanted for?

Stealing a loaf of bread?

You do not know the
monster that I know.

But if you stick around
long enough, you will.

Let's go.

You wanna tell me where
the hell we're goin',

or is it just some
big-ass surprise?

Chelsea Piers.

Like I said, the boats are sunk.

Pier, no boats?
Don't that seem

a few ass hairs short
of a dingleberry?

Don't need boats.
Just the dock.

It floats.

All we gotta do
is disconnect it.

You from here.

You're a New Yorker.

Bronx.

Worked for the state.

Drift collection boats.

Scooping up debris.

Keeping the rivers clean.

What were you?

Worked for the state too.

Gym teacher.

Come on! We gotta...

- This way.
- Come on!

What do you think?

Some avant-garde
artist from before?

Or someone who lost
their mind from after.

Come on.

Amaia, where
do you think we are?

Probably Hell's Kitchen

or Chelsea.

Holy shit!

Oxygen.

Must be extras for the Burazi.

These ones got masks
and shit on them.

Crazy lucky, right? Now
we can breathe easy.

Here.

- They work?
- Let's find out.

The kid gets one.
We can trade off the other.

Here.

What? You'd rather
keep huffin' fleshies?

All right, suit yourself.

I just
can't figure it out,

how they knew.

Maybe it was Luther
who tipped them off.

He left us.

He didn't wanna go
through with any of it.

- Here.
- No.

No, no, no, no, no.

It can't be Luther.

What would he get out of it?

It was him.

The hell you talkin' 'bout?

You knew exactly
how to get out last night.

You knew to go to the sewers.

You even knew how to get inside
with that bullshit nonno story.

Bullshit? Are you...

Yo, you buggin'.

It's how I got
off the first time

when I was being tortured?

- Or he cut you a deal.
- A deal?

Yo, that methane's
goin' to your head.

You hearin' this?

Had you tell him
where his hideouts were

so he could raid them?
Probably gave him a signal

to let him know
that we were coming.

You're paranoid, you know that?

You don't trust nobody.

Why did you
take off your pack?

What?

Before you found
the oxygen tanks,

why did you take your pack off?

Do you wanna say it, or shall I?

Amaia.

Amaia, hey, hey.

Amaia, you're not gonna
believe this shit, right?

You can't believe...

He had the tanks
in his pack the whole time!

I bet taking them
was the signal.

Why?

'Cause he's a liar.

He doesn't care about
anybody but himself.

Amaia, it was a...

It was a fantasy.

Amaia, Amaia, it was a fantasy.

Taking back the island?
Reclaiming our home?

Our home is gone,
Amaia. It's been gone.

Everyone is dead.

What I did, it was the only way.

- I did it for you.
- No, no.

- I had to.
- No.

Amaia!

Jesus Christ.

You were right.

It's definitely an
after situation.

Hey. Let's go.

Yeah.

Come on.

Aah!

Goddamn it.

Believe it or not,

I don't like leaving
people behind to die.

Even huge assholes.

And here's the deal, all right?

I help you, and no more of this

dragging me back to
New Babylon bullshit.

- No.
- No!?

You think you know
me? Is that it?

Because I guarantee
you you don't.

Just tell me, why
are you doing this?

Come on.

Before I change my goddamn mind.

I don't
know what you're planning.

I don't know about him.

But you could go to
my home, the Bricks.

You'll be safe there. You
just give them my name.

She knows the way.

Oh, shit...

Ugh.

Here.

Help! Help!

Hey, hey,
it's all right. Here.

Here, take this. Take this.

No, I'm fine.

Come on, hey. At
least take a break.

You almost just faceplanted.

Huh?

You don't know
what it's been like for us.

You can't put down roots
when all you're doing

is running for your life.

My nonno's story?
That shit was real.

I didn't make that shit up.

I was this close to getting
out, but he followed me and...

I gave up our hideouts
to stay alive,

to get back to Amaia.

He said if I brought my
people to him, he'd...

He said he'd give me a boat.

Left the tanks for
me, like you said.

He told me about this
place on the mainland.

He said they got
homes with kitchens,

rooms for your things,

a farm, a school for your kids.

That shit sounded safe 'cause
everything was made of brick.

He said that's the kind
of place we could get to.

I-I don't know.

I didn't mean for it to
go down the way it did.

I thought at least
they'd have a choice.

I thought... I thought he'd...

I should've... I
should've known.

But I had to try for
Amaia. For our...

Like you said.

Gotta do whatever it
takes to make it safe.

Amaia!

Amaia!

Ginny!

No!

Amaia!

- Oh, shit!
- No!

Is she okay? Amaia!

- It's all my fault.
- No.

I messed
it all up. Amai...

Out of my way, bitch.

M'lady.

We're talking to them now?

That's none of your concern.

My plan was a success

- beyond expectation.
- Shhh!

Sit.

So, it went well.

My informant delivered.

The threat has been neutralized.

And also, Negan
is on the island.

- I saw him with my own eyes.
- Then where is he?

Let me see if I understand.

The show started
out with a bang.

Kept me up all night, actually.

But then there was a plot twist.

You thought you had your
hero, but he got away.

What good is a hero offstage?

So naturally the ending
fizzled, and let's face it,

everyone knows the ending
is all that matters.

They're here.

Only one so far. A marshal,

but he comes from the mainland.

It's just as you said.

There will be those who
try to bring it all back,

the old laws and prisons,
to protect and serve,

but really like before,
just to punish and steal

and feed their fat bellies.

Now they've come for
what we've built.

What's ours.

So we have to be ready.

Which is why we need him.

Which is why you
fucked up so royally.

I will find him.

There is absolutely no way Negan
will be getting off this island.

I promise you.

Ginny,

take this.

You're gonna need it on
the way back to the Bricks.

Take it!

Look...

I don't know what
you saw in my bag,

and I don't know when,

but I'm guessing that
you saw something.

I never showed him your doll

because I didn't even know
if you were still here

or where you were, if you
were even still alive.

And the truth is,

I still can't let him
know that you're here.

Or else it all falls apart.

He'll leave. He'll
take you back.

A very bad man...

took all of our grain
and all of our food.

Took us months to produce.

And he's gonna keep on taking it

every single harvest until
we all starve to death.

And worse than
that, he has my son.

His name's Hershel.

And I have to think of Hershel.

And...

And Negan,

Negan is the key to
getting him back.

You understand?

Okay.

How did you know?

Right, gym teacher.

That's right.

Okay.

Sorry.

Aah!

Why are you doing this?

Hell if I know.

My luck, they pin
your death on me,

and I'm wanted twice as bad.

The next guy on my ass
way worse than you.

I guarantee it.

All right, get some rest.

My brother.

His name was Joel.

We were close.

Even though I annoyed the
ever-livin' hell out of him.

Would've followed Joel anywhere.

So when he got that
job on the docks,

I got one too.

He was funny.

Had this, uh, charisma.

But he was restless, too.

Got into fights,
in and out of jail,

had problems we
just couldn't see.

One night my folks
caught him breaking in,

lookin' to steal from them.

He attacked my mother.

So high he didn't know
what he was doing.

They were too scared to
do anything about it.

Maybe they hoped
it would go away.

So it fell on me,

which left me...

angry.

He was my big brother.

He let me down, abandoned me.

So I guess I wanted to
abandon him right back.

This was the last time
I ever heard from Joel.

Couldn't bring
myself to open it.

Three years later,
the city fell apart.

Mom and Dad and I got
out just in time, but...

it happened so fast,
I didn't think...

He was left to die all alone,

in the worst possible
place on the planet.

Is that what he deserved?

Is it really so black and white?

You'd asked me back then,
I would've said yes.

But now?

I don't know.

Is it gray?

Is it something else?

Tranquilitas Ordinis.

What if it's just stories we
tell ourselves to sleep easier?

That way.

Aw, shit. It's over here.

Go.

Go, Ginny, go! Now!

Go, you can do it! Go!

Ginny!

Ginny!

- Mom!
- Hershel! Hershel!

Mom! Mom!

No! No!

Hershel!

Mom! Help, Mom!

Maggie: You think the
plan's going to work?

Negan: I have a feeling
he and I may be able

to work something out.

Guess you were right all along.

Let's go.

Negan: I am not
who you think I am.

Hi, I'm Eli Jorné, EP and
showrunner of "Dead City"

and this is episode 5,
"Stories We Tell Ourselves."

The title of Episode 5 comes
from a line in the episode

when Perlie Armstrong is in
the school bus with Negan.

Why are you doing this?

Hell if I know.

Negan is saving his life,

and it's forcing Armstrong
to look at Negan and realize,

like, this is not the villain
that he thought he was.

If he goes all the way back

and realizes that
maybe his brother

also wasn't the villain
in his life story,

then all of a sudden,
everything falls apart.

He attacked my mother.

So high, he didn't
know what he was doing.

Three years later,
the city fell apart.

Mom and Dad and I
got out just in time,

but it happened so
fast, I didn't think...

Is that what he deserved?

Is it really so black and white?

What if it's just
stories we tell ourselves

to sleep easier?

For Armstrong, he's
having this revelation

where he's realizing,

"Maybe it was all more nuanced
than I ever thought it was."

So in episode 5, we meet
a new character, The Dama.

She's somebody in
The Croat's orbit

who, to some extent, seems to
be pulling the strings a bit.

We're talking to them now?

That's none of your concern.

She kind of foretold
that, one day,

these forces of civilization
might come for their island.

And so, I think this
is our first hint

for the larger story here.

And The Dama seems to
be at the center of it.

These look recent.
These ones are.

Fresh deposits to
his methane bank.

Called it feeding the beast.

Jorné: Maggie and Negan
have made this plan

with the tribespeople.

They get down into the sewers,
and Maggie starts to realize

something is...
Something's off here.

Why did you take your pack off?

Do you want to
say it or shall I?

In fact, she inspired
Tommaso to do all this.

And so, in that way, she's...

You could say she's
kind of complicit.

I gave up our high
dose to stay alive,

to get back to Amaya.

And they told me about
this place on the mainland.

He said they got...
homes with kitchens.

It just sounded safe because
everything was made of brick.

Like you said,

got to do whatever it
takes to make it safe.

When Maggie sees Amaya
lying there dead,

and then she cradles Tommaso
trying to keep him from dying

and his last words are about,
you know, "Is Amaya okay?"

And her realizing he didn't
do it because he's a rat.

He didn't do it
because he's selfish.

He did it for her.

Amaya.

It's all my fault.

No. I messed it all up.

And when Maggie comes
to understand that,

that it's so much more nuanced
than she first thought it was,

I think she does
feel a lot of regret,

a lot of guilt over that.

The more she has to
spend time with Negan

and see him as a human being,

the more the story she's
told herself all these years

just starts to get
unraveled a little bit.

Maggie and Ginny eventually
come across this,

like, terrifying, monstrous,
creepy thing made of walkers.

It's something that I... I had
thought of a few years before.

What if... What if a walker kind
of stepped through one walker

and then another walker stuck
its head through that walker,

and they got all, like,
tangled in that way,

and they had to start to
kind of move together?

It was so fun to watch the
Walker King come to life.

There were puppeteers
that you guys don't see.

You know, that we cut
out all dressed in green.

Someone in that suit and
there was someone, you know,

puppeteering all
the arms and legs,

battery-operated faces,

puppet out of the
chest and whatnot.

I hope everybody
all over the world

gets to one day build and watch
a Walker King come to life

because it's pretty cool.
