Negan begins to walk around looking at everyone individually and continues his speech. "Today was career day. We invested a lot so you can know who I am and what I can do. You work for me now. You have shit you give it to me that your job. Now I know that is a mighty big nasty pill to swallow but swallow it you most certainly will. You ruled the roost, you build something, you thought you were safe I get it, but the word is out. You are not safe, not even close. In fact, you are pegged, more pegged if you don't do what I want and what I want is half your shit, and if that's too much you can make find or steal more, and it'll even out sooner or later. This is your way of life now the more you fight back the harder it will be.

So if someone knocks on your door you let us in, we own that door. You try to stop us and we will knock it down. You Understand? What no answer? You didn't really think that you were gonna get through this without getting punished now, did you? I don't wanna kill you people just want to make that clear from that gecko. I want you to work for me. You can't do that if you're dead now can you? I'm not growing a garden but you killed my people. A whole damn lot of them. More than I'm comfortable with, and for that, and for that you're gonna pay. So now, I'm gonna beat the holy hell out of one of you. This, this is Lucille and she is awesome. All this, all this just so we can pick out which one of you gets the honor."

At this point, Tessa is scared shit less. With her head still down she is unable to move once she feels his eyes on her. Abraham squeezes her hand and then lets' go which causes her to look up. Negan is standing right in front of them both. Abraham sits up straight showing nothing but bravery, which is something Tessa always admired.

"huh, I gotta shave this shit." Negan moves directly in front of Tessa and squats down to her level. "I noticed you right away but I couldn't see your beautiful face with you having your head down all the damn time. What's your name sweetheart?"

Tessa feels her throat go dry and is unable to speak. She then feels Negan reach over and moves a strand of hair behind her ear. "You must have not been paying attention, but when I ask a question I expect an answer darling. What's your name?" She then has the courage to finally look into his eyes "It's, It's Tessa. My name is Tessa."

"Tessa... a beautiful name for a beautiful woman." Negan then stands up and continues his way over to Carl and then Maggie. "Jesus you look shitty! I should just put you out of your misery right now!" Tessa could feel her eyes almost pop out of her head. "No! No! Please!" Glenn yells but is then tackled to the ground by a few of the surrounding men. "Nope. Nope get him back in line. Alright listen, don't any of you try that again. I will shut that shit down, no expectation! First's ones free, it's an emotional moment, I get it! ".
