行尸走肉：死亡之城（2023）

what he himself couldn't.
杀他父亲的凶手可能会感到懊悔
That his father's killer might feel remorseful,
想对这个破碎家庭的男孩负责
responsible for the boy whose family he destroyed.
当然 他是在很安全的情况下说的
Well, of course, he only told me this once he felt safe with me.
你大老远跑来救他
And here you are, come all this way to save him.
如你所知 我就是用他来换你
As you know, I eventually let him go in exchange for you.
但我还保留了他一部分
But I kept a little piece of him.
我随时可以去拿回更多
And I can always go back for more.
少喝点
Make it last.
我们有很多事要讨论
We have a lot to discuss.
还有很多计划
A lot to plan for.

Eli: Hi, I'm Eli Jorné, EP and showrunner of "Dead City,"
and this is episode six, "Doma Smo."
It's a Croatian phrase, and it means "we are home."
You brought them home.
[Speaking Croatian]
So, when Negan sees Ginny in episode six,
it's, like, the worst thing that he wants to see happen.
You stay with her people where you're safe.
That was the whole damn point!
She's here in this dangerous place
just when they're on the cusp of hopefully, you know,
getting this thing over with.
You know, she hasn't spoken since her dad died.
That's how painful it was for her.
I want you to -- No.
All these months and now you want to chat?
And then he realizes that if he's gonna stop her
and -- and make her go back
and make her get away from him once and for all...
I killed your dad.
...he has to tell her that, you know,
something that he knows
will probably make him lose her forever,
but it'll at least keep her safe.
And I think that's the ultimate sacrifice.
You're just a debt that I had to pay.
I got you. Come on, let's go.
♪
So, eventually, Maggie and Negan get into a fight.
I think it's the fight we've all been waiting for.
You know, we found an amazing location.
That's a weird thing to say, but it was kind of a dream
to see this fight unfold.
Stop!

When Negan has his knife to Maggie's throat
and he drops it and he steps back,
I think that action itself is essentially
starting to say to her, "This is as it should be."
I think he knows that he has to take responsibility.
And beyond that, I think there's something in him
that fears what he is.
It doesn't matter what excuses I give you
or how many apologies I offer.
You can't get over it.
♪
And you shouldn't.
♪
Maggie has tricked Negan.
The Croat demanded that Maggie, you know, bring Negan to her,
only then she would get her son back.
A-And she has the knife to his throat.
And I think there's just a moment where she's realizing,
"O-Of course I want my son back, but I also --
how do -- how do I feel about
turning over this person that I've come to see
is maybe not exactly the person I thought he was."
He helps her put her family back together,
and in turn, he will suffer for what he's done.
♪
I can't begin to imagine what you went through.
There's a moment when Maggie and Hershel
are parked out in the car.
Hershel kind of explodes at his mom
a-and calls out the fact that, you know,
"Were you really here for me, or were you really here
to punish Negan?"It's like my whole life,
you've been looking over my shoulder,
watching for him, waiting for him.
That is not true!But you never see me.
♪
And she's realizing that just things
are not as black and white as she once thought they were.
And she has to wonder if what she's done to Negan is right
and if it's gonna help any of them heal at all.
That's what's going through her mind in that moment
is she's kind of wrestling with what she's done to him.
[Engine starts]
♪
Well, at the end of, uh, episode six,
which is the end of the season,
The Dama kind of lays out what she what she wants out of Negan.
♪
The Dama has just shown him Hershel's toe
and basically said,
"If you're not the man I need you to be,
you better become that person, you know, or else."
And Negan, his expression kind of falls,
because he realizes that he's trapped.
And this is kind of worse
than any torture he would have expected.
On some level, I think he felt he deserved that.
But the one thing he's not looking forward to
is letting the monster out.
And that's essentially what The Dama is asking of him.
Make it last. We have a lot to discuss.
The end of episode six,
we've got this split screen kind of image
where Maggie and Negan are almost, like, sharing a face.
And, um, to me, that kind of is the larger metaphor
for -- for what's happened in this season
is these two people who started out so far apart,
and in coming together,
they've started to understand one another,
and they're starting to see that,
you know, there is this way out.
It's probably a long way off,
but it has to be through each other.
