An early confrontation between Daryl and Lance’s warriors was resolved in “A New Deal” thanks to Carol’s quick arrival with Pamela and Mercer.
As was alluded to last week, Carol made a deal with the governor of the Commonwealth that would enable her and her allies to escape with supplies to rebuild their towns while Lance took over as leader of the country from Sebastian.

Sebastian, certain that Max was the one who had videotaped him, pursued her until he found a good moment to aim a walker at her. She may have been bitten if Eugene hadn’t come to the rescue and shoved the zombie in the direction of Sebastian, whose cries for assistance were met with silence. One of the most satisfying deaths in the series’ history, he was bitten to death in a bloody last act.
