'Walking Dead Ahead': Will Rick Be Exiled From Alexandria in the Season 5 Finale?

With only 90 minutes left in The Walking Dead's fifth season, we’ve got questions we want answered! Is Glenn doomed to be walker chow? Will Rick face his fate in exile? And will we ever get to hear the other songs on Aiden's killer mixtape?

The mystery of the walkers with W’s carved into their foreheads can’t go on any longer — far too many core characters are aware of the mutilation by now — and in my humble (and obsessive fanboy) opinion, the trio of people that Deanna exiled is behind this as a first stab (pun intended) at a zombie apocalypse branding strategy. Whatever their clan may be named — perhaps Wolves, as in the spray-painted warnings we spied in and around Noah’s hometown — they want survivors to tremble in fear when they see their mark, like a gruesome Zorro of Zombietown.

No matter who they are, the W Crew is coming, and at the worst/best time possible for Alexandria. Worst for the citizens, who seem ready to go to war with Rick over the safety of a wife-beater, but best for us, the viewers, who crave more drama than walkers hanker for brains. So grab the popcorn and settle in for the 90-minute showdown this Sunday, March 29 at 9 p.m. on AMC.
