‘The Walking Dead’: Where Was Gregory Going?

(AMC/The Walking Dead)

At one point during tonight’s episode of The Walking Dead, Gregory tells another Hilltop member that he needs to be taken somewhere. Then he tells him that he should pack a bag. Where is Gregory going? (This post has spoilers through Season 7 Episode 15, with possible finale spoilers if the theories are correct.) 

Gregory never said exactly where he wanted to go, but we can guess based on last week’s episode.

Last week, Gregory had a conversation with Simon when the Saviors arrived to pick up Dr. Carson, and Daryl and Maggie had to hide. In case you don’t recall, the conversation went like this:

Gregory spoke to Simon outside and told him: “I’ve got to hang on to my people’s trust.” He said he couldn’t let anyone else take over. “They might have crazy ideas… I know human nature, and it isn’t inconceivable.”

Simon said that if Gregory was having problems like that, Gregory should come to see him anytime. “I’ll arrange it so you just tell the guard who you are, and he’ll let you right in.” And then he gave Gregory a piece of paper, which likely had a map on it.

So, the top theory right now is that Gregory is heading over to the Saviors’ compound. But his motivations are unclear.

Do you think that’s where Gregory is going? Let us know in the comments below.
