Negan is set to help Maggie in saving her son! The Walking Dead: Dead City Episode 1 begins with Maggie looking through binoculars in a post-apocalyptic Manhattan. It’s sealed off from the rest of the world, but there are still enough zombies to make life miserable.
Maggie, of course, instantly lowers her guard and is surprised by one creeping up on her. So she goes full Negan and cracks its head.
The Walking Dead: Dead City Episode 1: Who is Negan? And what do marshals want from him?
Maggie hopes to get some steady work, so she goes to the nearby hotel and asks for information. They must have the ideal “groaner” exterminator in the neighborhood.
Maggie lets her guard down as she goes hunting, and she gets captured again, this time by the pub owner. Maggie surprises them all, getting rid of the guards and fleeing out the back door. She notices Negan there. The story moves to the past, and we find Maggie following a man named Negan.
Maggie approaches Negan and wants him to help her since the Croat has taken her child, and she feels Negan can assist her in retrieving him.
As Negan and Maggie approach Babylon City, we notice two zombies dangling on a rope right before the door. In another scene, marshals are looking for Negan on charges of murder.
The police officer inquires about Negan with the pub owner (where he stayed a few days before), and she tells him everything. The police officer then tosses her out of the fence, and we notice a barrier dividing the city.
On one side, commoners are living, while on the other, zombies are living. When the marshal discovers a half-torn map book, he guesses Maggie and Negan are in Manhattan.

How did Maggie and Negan escape?
Maggie and Negan get the upper hand on the Marshalls, using one of the men, Chris, as bait to ensure safe passage across the river and avoid sniping.
The streets seem strangely quiet, and the group moves closer to the source of the smoke. The peace on the roads is short-lived as it begins to shower men.
All of the zombies on the roofs splat to the ground, but those within high-rise buildings are confined for the time being. However, a mysterious figure on one of the roofs is observing them.
The streets are full of traps, and Maggie almost steps right into the most obvious one until Negan points it out to her. There’s also a car driving about with music blasting, which attracts an army of zombies.
As the Marshalls close in, gunshots shatter the air, blasting machine gun fire into the crowd. Negan, Maggie, and Chris enter a clothing shop while fleeing gunfire in a game of cat and mouse.
Pearly Armstrong is the commanding officer. He explains the complexities of New Babylon to Maggie, pleading with her to hand over Negan.

Who Killed Pearly?
Another walker/groaner approaches the three while he speaks. After slaying the zombie, Negan talks to young Marshall, but Pearly has the final word, firing him in the head. With a pistol to her throat, Maggie says that she needs Negan’s help.
Maggie ultimately wins a short fight, and after knocking him unconscious, she can’t bring herself to strike the death blow, and he escapes.

Where is Hershel?
On the rooftops, a lady with wild hair comes up on Negan and Maggie, blowing out their ideal light and immersing them in darkness. We cut across to The Croat, who happens to be holding Hershel.
He talks, of course, about the kid’s feisty personality before noticing his work firsthand. A heavily ravaged guy attempts to run from the rooftop, but Croat quickly dispelled this, causing him to fall to his demise.
