The duo trail after him and find he\u2019s gone to a rickety old cabin, one which Daryl is not pleased about entering. Carol\u2019s none the wiser about his history with the place until she finds a box hidden under the floorboards with a note inside and asks him, \u201cShe lived here?\u201d Carol, it seems, knows something we don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>We then learn how they met in flashback: Daryl is following the river to search for Rick (Andrew Lincoln) when Dog \u2014 who he\u2019s meeting for the first time \u2014 leads him to the cabin. He barges in and comes face-to-face with Leah. She points a gun at him and demands to know who he is. \u201cI\u2019m leaving,\u201d Daryl says. She responds, \u201cNo, you\u2019re not.\u201d After some back-and-forth about whether she should kill him, she decides to let him go.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Always_the_Hero\"><\/span>Always the Hero<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Six months later, they run into each other when Dog enters Daryl\u2019s camp. He brings him back to Leah. They chat for a bit about not letting the dead world \u201ccatch up\u201d to them, and that\u2019s that. Except they run into each other again, eight months after that, when they find themselves running from the same group of walkers on the outskirts of his makeshift home in the woods. They wind up in awkwardly close proximity \u2014 a classic rom-com trope \u2014 and once they\u2019re safe, Daryl tells her to stay away from his camp. They bicker about staying away from each other \u2014 another classic trope \u2014 and end up staying in the same cabin.<\/p>\n<p>There, we get Leah\u2019s tragic backstory. She didn\u2019t have a good family life before the apocalypse, and she lost the only people she cared about when the world ended. And then she lost her sister, and her sister\u2019s child, and every year on that child\u2019s birthday, she\u2019s utterly broken. She asks Daryl who he lost. He tells her he lost his brother, and says he won\u2019t stop looking until he finds out what h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ened to him. \u201cYou\u2019re always the hero, huh?\u201d she says. Over time, they form an intimate emotional and physical relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Ten months later, though, things aren\u2019t so rosy. Leah\u2019s not happy that Daryl spends so much time looking for Rick, and she doesn\u2019t want him to split his time between the search, his family in Alexandria, and her. She asks him where he belongs, and he says he doesn\u2019t know. \u201cYeah, you do,\u201d she says. \u201cNow choose.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He goes to see Carol, and she tells him she won\u2019t be able to visit him anymore (at this point, she\u2019s too busy with the Kingdom and Ezekiel [Khary Payton]). \u201cI don\u2019t want to lose you out here,\u201d she says. \u201cI don\u2019t want to lose you because you don\u2019t know when to stop.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_989922\" style=\"width: 865px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-989922\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-989922\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/twd-1018-daryl-norman-reedus-carol-melissa-mcbride-855x570.jpg\" alt=\"daryl norman reedus walking dead season 10 episode 18 carol melissa mcbride\" width=\"855\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/twd-1018-daryl-norman-reedus-carol-melissa-mcbride-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/twd-1018-daryl-norman-reedus-carol-melissa-mcbride-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/twd-1018-daryl-norman-reedus-carol-melissa-mcbride-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/twd-1018-daryl-norman-reedus-carol-melissa-mcbride-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/twd-1018-daryl-norman-reedus-carol-melissa-mcbride-570x380.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/twd-1018-daryl-norman-reedus-carol-melissa-mcbride.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-989922\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eli Ade\/AMC<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Our_Lucks_Run_Out\"><\/span>Our Luck\u2019s Run Out<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Daryl goes back to the cabin, but Leah\u2019s gone. Dog\u2019s there, though, and he\u2019s happy to see his friend. When Leah doesn\u2019t come back, Daryl leaves her a note in a box: \u201cI belong with you,\u201d it reads, \u201cfind me.\u201d With that, he takes Dog and tries to find Leah, but he can\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>In the present, Carol tries to tell Daryl that what happened to Leah wasn\u2019t his fault and that he didn\u2019t \u201cwalk away\u201d from her. She consoles him by saying none of the losses he\u2019s suffered are his fault: not Rick\u2019s, not Connie\u2019s. That strikes a nerve with Daryl, who lashes out by blaming her for what happened to Connie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, that\u2019s on you, because you never know when to stop,\u201d he says, throwing her words back at her. They both get angry. He says he\u2019s tired of having \u201cthe same conversation\u201d with her. She says he should\u2019ve let her leave. \u201cYou want to run, run,\u201d he says. \u201cI know where I\u2019m supposed to be. I won\u2019t stop you this time.\u201d Carol can\u2019t hold back tears, and she says their luck has run out.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_Observations\"><\/span>Other Observations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>This episode is confusing. The whole \u201cDaryl\u2019s love life\u201d topic has been built up for years, and <em>TWD<\/em> addresses it not only in a single episode, but as a <em>flashback<\/em>?!<\/li>\n<li>On that subject, how are we meant to perceive Leah\u2019s ultimatum? It\u2019s hard to see it as anything but manipulative, given how deeply we know Daryl cares for his family. If they\u2019ve been in a relationship all this time, she should know that, too \u2014 but she still basically demands he pick her instead of them. Was there not a way to compromise? If this show wants me to root for Daryl and Leah, it\u2019s going about it wrong.<\/li>\n<li>Also weird: Hadn\u2019t Daryl gotten over the cave and Carol\u2019s connection to Connie\u2019s disappearance? In the season finale, they were back to hugging each other and comforting each other and talking about New Mexico. This feels like manufactured drama for the sake of drama.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><em>The Walking Dead<\/em>, Sundays, 9\/8c, AMC<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
