I hated that. You knew right away when she asked that he was going to lie to her, and what the hell for? For the sake of her feelings? Because it'd hurt her? You're willing to let people suffer and die for that? Then he goes back and gives a whole speech to Morgan about how the stakes are too high and he needs to wake up.
They're up against a dude who kills people for the sake of instilling fear in tributaries - which Daryl knows as well as anyone - and this is a scenario in which he's willing to compromise? What a slap in the face to Glenn, not to mention Maggie. Negan murdered him in front of his pregnant wife, and here's someone who can help avenge him and stop this from continuing. Who would
want to do so if she knew. It's ridiculous that he wouldn't tell her.
To hell with her agency, by the way; "I'm going to withhold this information from you and make the decision for you". Yeah, super noble there. What a dick.
And yeah the black robe black boot junkyard cult that speak in riddles reminded me of
the South Park episode where they get all their parents arrested on fake accusations of child molestation and within two days the whole place turns into some post-apocalyptic cult.
It was ridiculous to the point of laughable... Some weird concept dreamed up late at night in a writing room under the influence of chemicals of some sort, I assume. At least Ezekiel had a fairly interesting backstory and self-justification behind his particular odd demeanor even though I can't help but think every time I see that tiger that he must be eating basically all of their supplies.
