[Softly] I am gonna
get us out of here.
We have got to put our sh*t
aside and work together.
For everyone.
By announcing my intent
to defend Eugene Porter,
who has been wrongly
and unjustly accused
by Pamela Milton and
the Commonwealth.
We are gonna get our
kids, take back our home,
and make it right.
And Pamela is never
gonna see it coming.
Judith: The world is dark
and broken, but we're not.
Not yet.
[Whistling]
We stare into the face
of death every day...
until, one day, that
face is our own.
How do you come back from that?
Keep it. It'll help
you find your way.

Pamela: It was the
worst day of my life.
He took me into the morgue
where Sebastian was.
I think Pamela does have
true grief over her son,

an element of [Laughing]
crocodile tears
in front of the judge

You k*lled my boy!
Objection, Your Honor!
My son's life cannot be in vain!
Your Honor, motion to

Your turn, Counselor.
Yumiko is very smart
and, from the outset,
she knows that it's
an uphill battle.
[Whispering] This
judge is a proverbial
and perhaps a
literal brick wall.
I fear nothing is
getting through.
[Whispering] But it's not her we
have to get through to, Eugene.
It's them.
Kang: The whole trial is fake
and she knows that.
This tactic that
she's using is like,
"We're still going
to try to win,
but the truth is we're
probably set up to lose,
so, what can I do, instead?"
Tell me about the
lottery, Governor.
What does it mean to you?
The lottery is
about opportunity.
[Spectators murmuring]
Or is it a lie?
Just like your son said.
There is a recording,
Your Honor.
We all heard it that day.
The people of the
Commonwealth have been angry
and are demanding answers.
That does put
pressure on Pamela.
That wasn't my son.
[Murmuring]
Excuse me?
The tape was altered!
She is brazen enough
that she thinks like,
"I can literally say anything
and it doesn't matter if I lie
because, if I say it's the truth,
then it's the truth."
You actually expect
us to believe
that someone altered
your son's voice?
Not someone, Counselor.

Our characters are in these
really difficult situations
and they have to have some
trust and faith in each other
and in whether things
are going to work out.
A lot of them have
their faith tested
in some kind of way
in this episode.
[man] There, hoist
it or something.
[Whispering] Two in the
perimeter and four inside.
[Whispering] Okay.
Negan is a character
that we don't always
have a lot of trust in
and I think a lot of people
don't have much faith in him.
Negan.
The map.
So, it's interesting to
kind of make him a character
at the center of this idea of,
"Can we have faith
in each other?"
Hey, what's a person got to do
to get a little
break around here?
Got a problem over here, ?
No.
Just a prisoner, mouthing off.
Maybe we need to remind
him of his place.
That's not neces...

like he doesn't care
what people are saying
to him or about him,
he actually does care.

And this has to do a lot
with Annie and the
child that's on its way.
He's thinking about
what is his legacy
and does he want
to be remembered
as the guy that was a villain...
There is a traitor in our midst,
someone who thinks
he's above the rules.
This prisoner has admitted
to spearheading a rebellion.
Or is there another
version of his story
that can be told to whoever
his... his child is?
[Gently] Hey, hey.
[Sobbing]
It's okay.
I love you.
For Ezekiel's part,
he sees the
situation playing out
and he understands,
"Negan must have given
himself up for us."
There are no martyrs here.
[Sobbing]
Get off of me! No.
No!
That wasn't our deal!
[Crowd murmuring]
I think he also sees that Annie,
who is an innocent
in the situation,
is down on her knees
and Ezekiel, like again, he is
truly a leader for a reason.
♪
What are you doing?
I don't know.
He sees that something
horrific is about to happen
and he cannot just stand
by and watch it happen.
Somebody that can show
that kind of courage tends
to inspire others around him.
That's why our group goes
up to stand beside him,
because those people
that are heroes,
they're always going
to stand together.
And I think that that is
very moving for Negan.
I don't think he expected
that from Ezekiel.
I don't think he expected
that from the group.
This world is broken,

Kang: Mercer is a hero
to the people of this place.
His posters are everywhere.
He is truly an icon
for this group.
Shouldn't be here.
I came to convince you
to do the right thing.
You should leave, Counselor.
Yumiko sees, "This as somebody
who we think has a good heart.
All we have to do
is just convince him
that he needs to help."
Pamela's men took them to
God knows where.
I know.
You know?
Yeah.
Yumiko is shocked
when she realizes Mercer,
in fact, does know
people have been taken.
I don't believe
that you don't care.
That's disappointing for her
because she thought
she knew him better.
Mercer, we need you.
We need you to testify
against Pamela in
public to save them.
Of course, Mercer,
at this point,
already has his own
kind of play starting,
but that's not something
that she knows at this
point in the story.

We had different versions
of a final scene,
but when we went into editing,
like that just felt like
the right moment to end on
and the line was actually
an ad-lib by Michael.
It was so clearly the
right version to go with.
It's been a long time for
him to get to this point,
to just openly defy and
say like, "From now on,
