Rick has finally had enough after ‘The Walking Dead’ mid-season finale
Rise up.
Warning: This article contains spoilers from The Walking Dead mid-season finale.
It may have taken a psychological beating, a half-season of servitude, deaths of friends and loved ones, but Rick Grimes has finally had enough.
He was already pushed to his limits even before The Walking Dead mid-season finale, but as he and Aaron scavenged for items all hell seemed to break loose on top of Carl’s attempt to murder Negan. (And we don’t even think he knew about Negan discovering Judith.) Spencer tried to usurp Rick from power as the de-facto leader of Alexandria without an ounce of subtlety before having his guts revealed. Aaron was beaten half to death by Negan’s men for something that was easily explainable. Rosita, harboring murderous tendencies all season, finally used the single bullet she made Eugene make her—except it hit Lucille instead. For that, Olivia, a character who existed to take care of Judith and be the subject of fat jokes, ended up dead.
Negan won’t find out that Daryl escaped until next season. We don’t envy whoever is around when that happens.
As fans watched the supersized 90-minute episode, some of them could barely contain themselves through the many twists and turns.

But for once, The Walking Dead ended on a lighter note. After yet another motivational pep talk from Michonne, Rick and most of the major players left finally headed out to Hilltop to reunite with Maggie and Sasha—and a newly escaped Daryl. In a season full of dread, it was a brief moment of hope. Rick even got a gun back.
The Group has fully joined the rest of us in wanting Negan dead—and oh are fans stoked.

What’ll happen next? Well, Rick has a certain king and his pet tiger to convince to join the fight.
Too bad they don’t have the Hamilton soundtrack to convince everyone to rise up to revolution in this apocalypse.
The Walking Dead returns February 2017.
