Quotes[]
- Negan: Now, Dwight gave you some options. I don't think you get it yet. So I'm gonna break it down for you. You get three choices. One. You wind up on the spike, and you work for me as a dead man. Two. You get out of your cell, you work for points, but you're gonna wish you were dead. Or three. You work for me. You get yourself a brand new pair of shoes, and you live like a king! The choices seems pretty obvious. You should know, there is no door number four. This is it. This is the only way.
....
- Negan: You earn what you take.
....
- Dwight: You got your friend killed. I got Tina killed. Don't pretend you don't know the score. You should be dead, but Negan's taken a shine to you. You're lucky. Don't forget.
....
- Negan: Who are you?
- Fat Joey: Negan.
- Negan: [pointing at another Savior] Who... are... you?
- Savior: Negan.
- Fat Joey: [to everyone] Who are ya?
- Saviors: Negan.
- Negan: You see that? I am everywhere! And this was your shot to prove to me that that fundamental fact was sinkin' in, and you failed. Which sucks, because your life was 'bout to get SO much cooler! Am I right?
....
- Negan: What is your name?
- Daryl Dixon: Daryl.
....
- Negan: You don't scare easy. I love that!
....
- Sherry: Go back while you can. You know I did. Whatever he's done to you, there's more. There's always more. You won't get away and when you're back, it'll be worse.
....
- Daryl Dixon: I get why you did it. Why you took it. You were thinking about someone else. That's why I can't.
