Rick turns to him using a tree to help himself up saying, "Do you ever just shut the hell up." Negan smiles saying, "You got more guts than your buddy Spencer, remember him?" Rick tackles Negan and punches him twice, Negan kickes him off, Negan uses Lucille to help himself up and starts to slowly walk to Rick, Rick struggles to pull the knife out, but still tries his hardest to do it, Negan starts to talk while walking, saying, "It's over just quit trying Rick... It was destined to end this way.... We both did what we had to in order to survive, I get that... But this is how it was always meant to end." Negan raises Lucille and in the nick of time Rick pulls the knife out and cuts Negan's throat, he drops Lucille as Rick looks down on him, and says "Shut the hell up for the last time" he kicks Negan down and turns to the Saviors and shouts to put their weapons down, he does the same for his people, "What happened, what we did... what we lost... there's gotta be something after. The ones who have 'em up, put your hands down. We're all gonna go home now. Negan's alive. But his way of doing things is over. And anyone who can't live with that will pay the price, I promise you that. And any person here who would live in peace and fairness... who would find common ground... this world is yours, by right. We are life. That's death! And it's coming for us. Unless we stand together! So go home. Then the work begins. The new world begins. All this... All this is just what was. There's gotta be somethin' after. WE ARE THE WALKING DEAD...." Rick walks up to Maggie, she says "You should have killed him for what he took from us." Rick looks at her and says "If I killed him them what better would we be than them, it would just be a cycle repeating, trust me I want him dead for what he did to Glenn and Abe but the past is the past and him rotting away in a cell is a million times better than dead." she looks at him and says while crying, "Thank you... thank you for everything you've done for Glenn. I know he was a good friend, and would have wanted this outcome. I'm at peace now, knowing that he has people like you to have his back no matter what" Rick puts his hand on her shoulder and says "Like I said before... I'm following you now" Rosita looks at Eugene and asks if the bullet trick was him, he turns and says to her, "I do take full responsibility for this... I am truly sorry for all of this, I just needed to get close so I could do this." Rosita responds with, "I'm glad you grew a pair after all this time. Abe would be proud of us right now." Eugene mentions how he misses him, Rosita does too and they look at the sky. Carol and Ezekiel see each other, they laugh as they hug it out, out of nowhere after a few seconds they kiss for the first time, Ezekiel smiles and they hug it out once more.

Free, a new world, a fresh start." Dwight smiles and says, "I'm happy about it." Daryl pulls Dwight aside and they begin to chat, Daryl looks at him and says, "Your wife, she is out there still, thank you for all you have done. I know it wasn't easy for you..." Dwight looks at him and asks if he is asking him to leave, Daryl says, "I'm asking you to go and find Sherry, we got things here, when you return there will be a place for you here." Daryl gives him a gun and tells him to pick supplies up at Hilltop and a car and then to go and find her, Dwight reaches his hand out and Daryl pauses and then shakes his hand and they part ways, Rick tells them to all get into their vehicles and to head home, the Saviors, now led by the main Saviors that were Negan's right hands go home, to start rebuilding, the others head back to Hilltop,

Thank you." Morales smiles and sits back down, Carl puts his hat on Judith and says to her, "This is yours now..." Maggie sits down with a smile and looks at the drawing of Glenn that was just put up, she sheds a tear and says "You found me..." she says with a smile referring to when Glenn told her that he will find her before death."If you asked me a few years ago when all this started that the small group that survived the farm, prison, Terminus would have a bond stronger than iron and would be fighting for each other and would die for each other, I'd probably call you crazy... We now focus on the new world, we rebuild. Sanctuary will become a full time farming community, Alexandria will be cleared out and rebuilt, Hilltop will expand, The Kingdom will be fixed up, Negan will be locked away, Oceanside will forever feel that the ones who they lost to the Saviors are now avenged once and for all...
