The Walking Dead: Every Season 10 Episode Ranked Worst To Best
18. What We Become
Going into season ten, it was common knowledge that Danai Gurira's time on the show was coming to an end. The question was: How would she leave?
In What We Become, Michonne travels with newcomer Virgil to an isolated island, where she's kidnapped, poisoned, and thrown into nightmarish visions of what her life would have been like had she not met Rick Grimes. Later, she finds proof that Rick's alive, and sets off to find him.
It's a touching send-off, overall, rife with striking callbacks to earlier seasons and a monumental performance from Gurira, but between Rick being superimposed into the action and Virgil's flawed development, it manages to come off as melodramatic and rushed above all else. It's moving enough, but far from what it should've been.
