‘The Walking Dead’ Season 8 Episode 13’: The Complete Hilltop Death List [SPOILERS]

Coming into the 13th episode of The Walking Dead’s eighth season, we know that the Saviors are on the march for the Hilltop Community. Simon, driven by an insatiable bloodlust, hopes to eradicate the community, a rash move that goes against Negan’s typically cold and calculated planning. As we’ve learned from The Spoiling Dead Fans’ weekly Q&A about the latest episode, “Do Not Send Us Astray,” the entire hour-long time slot is dedicated to the battle at Hilltop.


Where there is war, there will be a wake of dead bodies, especially as the Saviors implement their tactic of “tainting” their weaponry with walker guts and blood. The Spoiling Dead Fans staff member NinjaPancake divulged details about the episode, including specifics on who doesn’t make it and whether the Saviors’ plan works.

NinjaPancake’s anonymous source revealed that, by the time the smoke has cleared over the once peaceful community, several background characters from both Hilltop and the Saviors will have perished. Tobin, the flannel-wearing former beau of Carol, is the only known character to die during the episode, ending fan’s hopes of a Carol-Tobin (Carbin?) relationship.

The real twist, however, comes later on when the tainted weaponry starts to take effect, killing and turning members of the Hilltop community. Tobin is among the reanimated and is responsible for killing the Kingdom’s doctor, leaviong Siddiq as the only remaining doctor to look after Maggie’s pregnancy.

“Do Not Send Us Astray” also features the potential for two tragedies when Rick is cut by a random Savior and Tara is shot with an arrow by Dwight. There are little details to the former incident, though Andrew Lincoln has been reportedly negotiating his contract for season nine, securing Rick’s safety for the remainder of this season. Tara, however, is a wild card. Dwight steps in when Simon pins Tara to the ground and, considering Dwight’s flip-flop to Team Alexandria, it’s possible his arrow was untainted and meant to save her life. Her fate is left unknown by the close of the episode, but NinjaPancake mentioned that another anonymous source provided information that reveals she’ll survive.

After the conclusion of this episode, which ends with Maggie looking over fresh graves and contemplating the cost of their battle with the Saviors, there are only three episodes left to wrap up the All Out War storyline. How the remainder of the series may go is still a mystery, especially considering how Scott Gimple revealed how the final battle between Rick and Negan would vary significantly from the comics.

The Walking Dead airs at 9 pm EST on AMC and 10 pm EST on the AMC app.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
