The Walking Dead Season 7: 5 Ups And 3 Downs From 'Bury Me Here'

4. The Saviour Middle-Man

We've seen a few of these drop-offs between the Kingdom and the Saviours now, and they fellow the same pattern, albeit one that escalates every time. It starts off simple, but tensions quickly rise, and it often ends in a small amount of violence.

What keeps them entertaining isn't the violent outbreaks, the tense stand-offs, and certainly not the rat-faced Jared (his death is going to be sweet), but instead the leader of this particular band of Saviours, Gavin (Jayson Warner Smith).

We've seen a few different takes on this high-ranking Saviour: there's Dwight, the most fleshed-out of the bunch, who has a burning inner conflict, and there's Simon, the smiling, sadistic second-in-command. Gavin is different to both; he's a middle-manager, and Smith imbues the character with all the 'let me just do my job and go home' world weariness you'd expect if he were actually just an office employee.

In a world where they're all fighting for something, it's actually a change of pace to watch, and there's just something really enjoyable in his performance. Plus he seems more upset about Benjamin's death than most of the Kingdom do.
