7. Who Has Been Captured By The Scavengers?

The Walking Dead Old Man Rick Questions

Those damn Scavengers. They sent Rick and company on a wild goose chase for guns and then used them against the Alexandrians.

They retreated quickly once they saw the forces of The Hilltop and The Kingdom, but it appears from the season eight trailer that Jadis and her army of garbage hoarders will continue to honour their deal with The Saviours going forward.

The trailer shows one vulnerable captive being held inside an unlit container belonging to The Scavengers, stripped naked and looking out of a peep hole. So dark is the container and so brief is the tease in the trailer that it is impossible to ascertain the prisoner, but their muscly build and medium-length hair makes Rick and Daryl the leading contenders.

Daryl was held hostage by Negan for much of season seven, so it would be frustrating to see him confined again when the character is at his best out on the open road. That leaves Rick, but how did he get detained, and how will he escape?
