30 things we need to see in The Walking Dead Season 7B

27. Eugene to escape his imprisonment at the Saviors’ compound
There’s bad news for Eugene fans moving forward. As we saw in the mid-season finale, Rosita’s plan to shoot Negan would backfire. The bullet misses Negan, causing him to have Olivia killed as a result. Things get even worse when Negan realizes the bullet is homemade by examining the casing. After some tense threatening, Eugene confesses to making the bullet to spare his friends from any more harm.
Unfortunately, this would add some value for Eugene to Negan. Now realizing Eugene has the knowledge to create ammo, the Saviors take him with them. From what we’ve seen of their compound, the place is locked down tight and well guarded. It’s seeming likely poor Eugene will wind up somewhere in that building, making bullets to the sounds of “Easy Street” on a loop.
We have yet to check back in with Eugene, having to wait until the new episodes to do so. But I already know it’s going to be sad to see what kind of state he’s in. He seems too valuable for Negan to just execute. All the same, it’d be better to get him the hell out of there. Will we see Eugene make it back to Alexandria?
