So I've known for a while (just a gut feeling) that Beth or Carol would die. Now my bets had always been on Beth dying before Carol as I felt her saving the group from Terminus redeemed her and made her more of an asset than Beth. At this point we had barely seen Beth this season and only in a few episodes but with the last 3 weeks worth of episodes - we all got one week closer to knowing who would be killed off. In my house we almost started taking bets that Beth would be the one - and last night cemented that Maggie's beloved little sister Beth was gone. What made everything worse about this death was that it was totally preventable! I knew watching the exchange between Dawn and Rick for the officers and Carol/Beth that something wasn't going to go as planned and that either one of our group would fire first or accidentally trip and kill someone or something - I wasn't sure what to expect but I just felt sick almost the entire episode waiting. Then it happened - after the exchange - Dawn wanted Noah back and Beth just would let it go as Dawn whispered under her breathe ( I knew you'd be back)....from there it all just went down hill. I cried! Daryl and Rick's reactions just set off a wave of emotion as I couldn't believe another one from "our group" was gone. I instantly felt for Maggie - as Michonne had just told her that Beth was alive and that Rick and the rest of the group went to get her. Seeing Maggie's reaction was worse than I imagined and I fell nothing but sadness for her. She's the last of the Greene family and after losing Hershel and now Beth - I don't know if she'll ever be that same. Watch and let me know what you think?

This clip below doesn't show Maggie's reaction but it can be found anything on IG or Youtube.
Typically my husband and I watch the show together. If we cant, we record it and watch it later, but for some reason, I just had to watch this episode, and boy was I happy I did watch it! When the plan for the exchange happened, I just knew that Noah would be the wild card. Then when Beth walked over to Noah and gave him a hug, I just knew she was going to pull out those scissors that she snuck up her cast to jig Officer Dawn in the neck. I have no idea what Beth's next move was that triggered Officer Dawn to shoot her point blank in the head, but that was just ridiculous! Officer Dawns face, Rick's face, and Daryl's face, matched my face! OMG NOO!!!! The only thing, was that my face remained like that until I saw Maggie's face. Tears were flowing down my face as I waited for her reaction for when she saw her sister lifeless. What a crushing blow. After all that Maggie did for Officer Dawn, I just still cant believe she killed Maggie. What a great season finale!
