The Walking Dead Season 6 Finale: 13 Things Episode 16 Got Horribly Wrong

6. 'It's A Trap' Let's Walk Into It

In a week which saw the sad death of Erik Bauersfeld, voice of Star Wars' Admiral Ackbar, it was only right that The Walking Dead characters paid a fitting tribute to everyone's favourite space squid by noticing a trap and continuing to plough straight into it.

The group realised that the Saviours weren't shooting at them to kill, they were letting the group through the walker chain on purpose. That's suspicious, right? Rick & Co. fully knew they'd fallen into a trap, but continued at full-speed.

They were heading down a road with Saviours behind, and almost certainly Saviours in front. It makes the logic seem utterly ridiculous. After half a season of growing into a fully-functioning, experienced task-force, it's ludicrously naive that they though driving ahead would end well.
