The Walking Dead: Dead City (2023) s03e08 Episode Script

1
[NEGAN] Previously on Dead City.
When you go deep, it's not you,
you know, but it is.
[GUNSHOT]
[DILLARD] Whoever you are,
it's not. But it has to be.
- No!
- [SCREAMS]
[DILLARD] For years,
when I went dark, it was me
and it was someone else.
I'm holed up in that bar for ages.
I knew I didn't understand them.
I had to pretend or
I would have gone crazy.
Maybe I don't really
know what is happening.
When you play a part for too long,
it becomes a piece of who you are.
No matter what, there's no way
it's ever gonna leave you.
Bring me the bad man.

How do you expect us to draw a

if you only give us two minutes?
I did mine in five seconds, you trollop!
- Oh!

[BLOWS WHISTLE] All right. Time's up.
[FRUSTRATED SIGH]
These challenges are
getting so impossible!
But that's kinda what keeps it fun.
Am I right? Come on.
[SLAPS TABLE] Let's do it.
All right, talk to me.
- It's the world, okay?
- Mm-hmm.
All the red, it represents how
violent and scary everything is.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I see that.
Okay, where am I?
You're the negative space. The light.
That represents you.
Our eccentric survivor.
- Our architect of wonder.
- [DILLARD] Stop it.
- [CANNED LAUGHTER]
- [TITICACA] And
that's your nose.
[TENSE MUSIC]
- [TITICACA] Right there.
- [CANNED "AWW"]
I told you, I didn't get to finish.
No, no, no, this is great. I love it.
You're so smart.
It looks like you exploded your tampon.
- [DILLARD CHUCKLES]
- [CANNED LAUGHTER]
Why are you laughing?
I don't even use tampons anymore.
Everything's okay,
don't worry. All right?
This is exactly what he wants.
It's okay to get a little
rise out of you, buddy.
All right, my man. How you doing?
Hmm, what do we got here? Is this me?
It's upside down, shit beard!
- My mistake.
- [CANNED LAUGHTER]
It's a big dick. With a little dick.
- Suits you to a tee!
- [DILLARD & AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
That's not funny.
Why do you let him
talk to you like that?
- You are a good person.
- With a wee, widdle willy.
[TITICACA] Curse you and
the mother who birthed you!
Don't listen to him.
You are a good person
and a great friend.
Is decent and kind

[DILLARD] You know, I used to be a cop.
- Used to work undercover.
- [WALKER GROWLS]
You don't know how it feels.
And when you go deep
[RIPPING, SQUISHING]
- [SIGHS]
- [WALKER GROWLS]
It's not you, but it is.
[CLANK]
Whoever you are, it's not.
Also it has to be, right?
Yeah, for years when
I went dark, I was
I was me
and I was someone else.
- [RIPPING, SQUISHING]
- [GRUNTS]
[WALKER GROWLING ANGRILY]
And then I was holed up
in that bar, you know?
I knew I wasn't really
talking to 'em, okay?
I had to pretend though or I'd go crazy.
Maybe I did.
Maybe I don't actually know
what's really happening.
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
I'll tell you what I do know.
Luis, if you play a part for too long,
it becomes a piece of who you are.
- [WALKER RENATA GROWLING]
- [DILLARD GRUNTS]
And no matter what,
it's never gonna leave you.
I mean, take Titicaca,
rest her beautiful soul.
When I first tamed and
named her, it was a goof.
You know what I mean?
It was just something to pass the time.
I should have known that if you
spend enough time with somebody,
you're gonna bond.
[WALKER RENATA GROWLING]
[DILLARD] Hmm
[DILLARD GRUNTS]
God damn it, if I didn't look
up one day and she was
Was the best friend I ever had.
And you know why?
Because I didn't need
to pretend with her.
I actually liked myself
when we were together.
And that is how you know it's real.
Not fake friends.
Haters. Losers.
Like Negan.
[WALKER RENATA GROWLING]
[SOFT SOBS]
She wants you to know
I'm not hurting her, buddy.
It's sweet she worries about
your feelings even now.
You know? She's a good
woman, your sister.
Now, I'm not saying she could
replace Titicaca, but
Like I said, if you spend
enough time with someone
- [GENTLE, CREEPY MUSIC]
- [WALKER RENATA GROWLING]
- [DILLARD GRUNTS]
- [CLANK]
My sister wouldn't want me to kill you.
But that's exactly what I'm going to do.
And I'll be happy to burn for it.
I get that you're feeling
really shitty right now, Luis,
but I want you to know
that I appreciate ya.
I do.
Hey, Kelso!
Could you Could you
take him out front?
Oh, Luis.
Now, I wanted you to see all this.
I wanted you to know that
I am gentle. Okay?
This is not violence. It's
It's love.
And I need you to know that,
'cause I don't want you to be scared.
'Cause if Negan's not here by sundown,
you are gonna join your sister.
[INHALES, EXHALES AUDIBLY]
But that won't be so bad. You know, man?
I think you and I would
make really good friends.

[HIGH-PITCHED FEEDBACK]
Hey, Maggie!
Why do I get the feeling that
you don't think I'm serious?
I can tell you Luis knows I'm serious.
I bet he'd love to tell you
just how serious I am.
You know what, Maggie?
I actually think he's got
all kinds of sweet stuff to tell you.
How's that sound?
So tick-fucking-tock, Maggie!
Because procrastination's a bitch.
I say we go after the bastard now
before he knows what hit him.
[DILLARD] You hear that, Maggie?
I get it.
- [DILLARD] Come on, Neegs. Be a man!
- I do.
But I'm telling you right now,
you bum-rush that asshole,
and it's curtains for all of us.
Negan's right.
[DILLARD CONTINUES RANTING]
We have to kill the bastard,
but we have to do it smart.
Plan it out.
So turn me in.
Not a chance.
It's what he wants, Maggie.
Look, if the shoe was
on the other foot
If the shoe was on the other foot,
you'd do exactly what
I'm doing right now.
I'm not turning anybody in.
We three do it together.
Goddamn, you are just too good
for this world, you know that?
- [DILLARD] Negan!
- Thank you.
[DILLARD] Come out and play!
All right, then why are
we burning daylight?
We have got a cluster to unfuck.
[DILLARD] Get over here, you mother
Goddamn it!
[TENSE MUSIC]
[WALKERS GROWLING]
I count three lookouts, all armed.
We have to fight our
way through the herd
without getting picked off,
and we can't wait till dark for cover.
What about a smoke screen?
We could set some fires
up down the street.
[NEGAN CHUCKLES]
What, are we just gonna hope
that the wind cooperates?
Even if it doesn't, it could
be a diversion, maybe.
No, see, I got a feeling that old dildo,
he even smells something funny going on,
there's not gonna be much
left of your Dr. Feelgood
by the time we get in there.
He's got the rest of our people
trapped in that apartment.
We'd have to split up.
Maybe we could draw him out
and say you want to
negotiate one-on-one.
No, he's never gonna go for it.
Look, Dillard is crazy,
but he's far from stupid.
He knows we have to go to him.
And he holds all of the cards.
We are outnumbered four to one,
and they have access
to the whole armory.
[DILLARD, TAUNTING]
Here, Maggie, Maggie, Maggie,
Maggie!!!
Negan!!!
Hey, Negan? Hey, buddy?
Come on, brother, it's just you and me.
Let's work this thing out.
Maggie!
- Mag, Mag, Mag, Maggie!
- [WALKER GROWLING]
[DILLARD] Hey, come save
your people, Maggie!
These fists aren't worth it.
I think I've got it.
- Where's Negan?
- [DILLARD] Now! Right now!
Shit, stay here.
[TENSE, PULSATING MUSIC]
[MAGGIE] Where do you
think you're going?
[NEGAN] God, just let me go, Maggie
What were you gonna do,
just cut and run?
- Maybe, yeah.
- Bullshit!
- [CHUCKLING] Maggie.
- No!
Do not make me hurt you.
You would have to kill me
to hurt me more than you already have.
But you're not gonna.
[WIND GUSTING]
But then let's get real, shall we?
You know exactly where I'm going
- and why I'm going there.
- You were going to find Dillard.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
[WALKER GROWLING]
- Goddamn it!
- [NEGAN] Jesus Christ!
[MAGGIE] Got it.
- [STAB, SQUISH]
- [MAGGIE GRUNTS]
[WALKER GROWLING]
- [WHACK]
- [GRUNTS]
- [GRUNTS]
- [MAGGIE] So what was your plan?
- Go after him or turn yourself in?
- Goddamn!
Whatever works!
Okay, well, I didn't save your life
in that goddamn bar
for you to go and turn yourself in now.
Dillard will kill everyone
in that building.
He will burn your crops to the ground.
He will destroy this entire
island to get to me.
Okay, so you were gonna
sacrifice yourself
for a community that you
didn't even want to join.
I tell you what, you can
name a street after me.
Negan, come back inside.
- Make a plan with me.
- This is the plan, Maggie.
This is it.
It doesn't matter if I don't
get my happy ending.
But I will not be the reason
that you and Hershel lose someone else.
Do you not get it?
The psycho doesn't
get to make the rules.
I'm not losing anybody else.
I've lost enough. No more.
Think about your son.
All right, you have
someone here and now.
- I don't.
- You've got me.
You've got me.
We are forever connected, Negan.
We are outright chained to one another.
I'm not saying it because I like it.
But you are like a shadow
that I can't shake.
- Okay
- Shut up.
I'm never gonna forgive you, not ever.
But we have moved past it.
And not further apart.
And maybe there's a reason
for that. I don't know.
But what I do know is,
aside from my son,
you are the closest thing to
family that I've got left.
Shit, Margaret.
- I don't deserve you.
- Damn straight.
But life's not fair.
Now come inside.
[EMOTIONAL MUSIC]
- [WALKERS GROWLING]
- [CREEPY, OMINOUS MUSIC]
[MAGGIE] When you get over the wall,
make sure Dillard knows you're there.
Oh, I will let him know.
And so will the walkers.
They'll lead me, and I will lead
him to 96 and Columbus,
just as we discussed. But Maggie?
You best be there when we get there.
[MAGGIE] I will.
If you don't get the drop on him,
it means he's got the drop on me.
- I've got you.
- All right.
Well, it's a longshot,
but best we got.
Well, goddamn, these are cool.
I don't know what the
hell they're gonna do
against their firepower.
Help us get a hold of some of theirs?
Yeah.
It ain't gonna be no cakewalk, kids.
Look, I hate to be the bearer
of bad news here, Sparky,
but you're gonna have
to sit this one out.
We need three people for the plan.
- We can pull it off with two.
- [HERSHEL] I'm doing this.
It's not up to you.
[EERIE MUSIC]
- Maybe he's right.
- What if you don't make it?
- What do you expect me to do?
- You can find people.
- You can find Armstrong.
- [HERSHEL] Tell him what?
That I let you die while
I hid like some coward?
Yeah, I'm sure he'd understand.
That's not even the point.
The point is, I couldn't
live with myself.
So little big man thinks
he's got what it takes.
Took down a friggin'
bear with these, Negan.
You ever take down a bear?
[NEGAN] You ever take down a person?
It ain't the same thing.
Especially when said
person's got a machine gun
pointed at your kisser.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
This plan needs three people.
And I know that you can handle it.
You took down a friggin' bear.
[SLAMS DOWN LUCILLE]
Well, goddamn.
You are as stubborn as your mother.
Do not screw the pooch.
- Screw the what?
- [NEGAN] Forget it.
All right. Well, time is money, honey.
- Let's do this thing.
- Good luck.
I will see you two kids in class.

Girzenkowski?
Girzenkowski?
That is why I never go above 96th.
Hey, Bear, Chef.
You gotta stay right on the apartment
like stink on garbage, okay?
Nobody goes in, nobody gets out.
- [CHEF MESING] Copy.
- [RADOMIR THE BEAR] Copy.
If Maggie can't follow directions,
then there's gotta be some
kind of consequence.
Put down the doc.

Why don't you just slide

After what you took from me,
all I could do was sit around
thinking of different ways
to snuff you out!
Dillard
But then I saw the

My buddy's face.
You really fuckin' hurt me, man.
But I don't want to be alone again.
[NEGAN] Hey. Hey, hey,
hey. Let's just
Let's just go home.
Just go back to the bar.
Have a beer.
Play video games. Yeah?

- Hell yeah.
- [DILLARD] Okay.
- Let's just start fresh.
- [NEGAN] Okay.
[DILLARD] We'll just
make things right first.
So you killed my friends, right?
Hear me out, Negan.
I'm gonna kill yours.
- [NEGAN] No.
- [DILLARD] Yeah.
- [NEGAN] No.
- [DILLARD] I think so, buddy.
She's not even my friend.
I don't know. I think she is, bro.
No, no. You know she's not.
Then prove it! Prove it, buddy.
How the fuck am I gonna do that?
There's a knife right there.
Just pick it up.

ten times after that

And then you know what I would do?
Just for fun, I would piss on your grave
just to kill the grass.
See I want to do something
that real friends do.
Because that's what we are, man.
We are real friends.
[DILLARD] I wanted something different.
I wanted to be somebody new.
I really did and I tried.
But you know, you are who you are.
I'm the eccentric survivor.
I'm the, the architect of wonder.
So I built a new world.
And I made a family, man.
And I just want you to be
a part of it, my friend.

Anyone ever teach you to knock?
You weren't at your apartment.
Well
I'm restocking my liquor cabinet.
Yeah. Kind of late for a beer run.
Kind of late for a social call.
I have something
I wanna talk to you about.
All right, well, I'm gonna
tell you right now,
if it's about the birds and the bees,
then maybe you ought to
talk to your good doctor,
and he may be able to explain
it in better detail than I can.
- Are you done?
- Nope.
[BADGE SCRAPES TABLE]
I need someone to run security.
You were right.
We need people.
All the hurt that we have been through,
it didn't come from the outside.
It came from us.
Everything that happened
with Renata, Fabian, Dillard.
The outsiders weren't the problem.
They saved our home.
All right. So if I am
running security
where does that leave you?
In charge.
Solmari, Luis, Hershel
they want me to do it.
And I want to do it.
When we first came here,
I thought that leading meant
that I had to lose myself.
And everything, everyone
that I cared about.
And I'm not that person anymore.
I've grown.
I can be a leader and a mom.
I'm more than what I thought.
Some of us have been telling
you that for a long time.
You're the most fearless
person that I've ever met.
In ways that other people aren't.
That's why I want you to do this.
We've got Manhattan back,
but there are four more
boroughs out there.
Together, we can do something bigger
than we've ever done before.
Just between us
I am scared every single day.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
All right. Well, is there some
sort of form I need to fill out,
or are you gonna make this official?
[BRIGHT, HOPEFUL MUSIC]
[MAGGIE] I'm glad you said yes.
Because I got something
I need you to do.
Yes, ma'am.
