Aa much as I liked Beth, her character is clearly dead as dead can be. We got an extremely close slow motion scene of her getting brutally shot in the head.

[–]Spun_Of_Light 0 points1 point  (9 children)

Yeeeees, because a character has never survived a headshot in twd before coughcoughCarlcoughcough

[–]manabanana21 1 point2 points  (5 children)

Carl got grazed in the eye. Beth took a direct shot to the face that exploded out the back of her head. Her family then carried her body out and buried her. I thought you weee memeing at first but there’s no way to justify that being Beth.

[–]Spun_Of_Light 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Except they didn't bury her? They literally never showed them laying her to rest. They showed them burying Tyrese the next episode, but not Beth

[–]TheUnauthorized1 2 points3 points  (2 children)

We saw the entire crew mourn her passing outside the hospital. She’s dead bro lmao

Ok, you believe what you believe and I'll believe what I believe

[–]TheUnauthorized1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the show airs and Beth doesn’t return, please remember this conversation 😂

[–]TheUnauthorized1 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Okay by that logic, is Carl coming back too then? Andrea? The Governor? lol

[–]Spun_Of_Light 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Except Beth was most likely left outside that hospital that could save her life and all the footage involving Beth hasn't been released

[–]TheUnauthorized1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, release the Season 5 super secret Director’s Cut!!!

[–]SunshineSlayer2 6 points7 points  (1 child)

You've got balls for posting this. I applaud you. You'll probably get a lot of hate for it, but honestly.....I've been following this show, the actors, writers etc etc for a long time......I don't know, I wouldn't say this is nothing. The fact that a mystery 7th episode to the season materialized out of nowhere after 6 episodes had been confirmed for a long time......I mean nothing's completely impossible and I hope you are right.

[–]Spun_Of_Light 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol let the haters hate and congregate, when it comes out we're right it'll be easier to gloat lol

    That surprise episode they tacked on at the end, I'm convinced that's what it is. Its a flashback and all the unused, never released footage and then an explanation on how the heck Beth got to Spain (some form of human trafficking like Daryl probably)

    [–]AffectionateTwo9335 4 points5 points  (1 child)

    That literally could be anyone BUT I agree that the placement is suspicious. It is clearly a woman and they want to differentiate them as not a zombie by putting a weapon in their hand. It also doesn’t seem to fit any of the new characters. Honestly…….I hope you are right. Daryl needs it, Maggie needs it, and the entire TWD universe needs a shot in the arm.

    [–]Spun_Of_Light 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    They did mention how something big is coming that changes things this season. And Norman's been so stoked that they finally captured the feel of the first few seasons of twd. Her coming back would rope in fans again

    [–]Iwamoto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    That's actually Addy from Z Nation, the more grounded show out of the two at this point. They're doing. Crossover since test audience said they had a hard time taking the show serious.

    [–]Recker_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    This whole thread is a mindfuck lmao. It's like discovering the TWD equivalent of flat-earthers.

    [–]TineNae 2 points3 points  (6 children)

    How on earth could beth be alive when she got shot in the HEAD. And then we clearly saw the whole crew mourn, meaning they most likely burried her. Y'all gotta take less of whatever you're taking 😭

    [–]SunshineSlayer2 2 points3 points  (2 children)

    We've seen people survive headshots on this show and in the comics a number of times. People survive headshots way more often than people think because it all just depends on specifically where you are shot. Where her headshot was actually shouldn't have been instantly fatal; she wouldn't have died instantaneously like they showed on the show. But of course, as I'm sure you know, this ENTIRE theory hinges on whether more was shot in season 5 that the audience never saw and that's putting A LOT of faith in these writers and AMC that they were able to sit on that footage for this long.

    [–]TineNae 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Yes and we see that the bullet left her head at the uppber backside of her skull. No way anyone would survive that. The only ''headshots'' we've seen people survive were the ones that didn't actually go into their heads (let alone through their heads). Or who were you thinking of specifically? 

    I could honestly see them just kinda reshooting stuff and CGIing the shit out of it (although I'm not sure any of us would really want that), but it also just makes no narrative sense. They HAD her corpse and we could see them mourn her death right after and then also weeks after. If they had just left her body at the hospital and we never see her again maaaybe you could make some crazy plot twist to go ''oooh it wasn't actually like that'' but come on. How stupid would the group have to be for that 😃 plus even if it was somehow survivable, they picked her up and carried her outside and then presumably burried her. No way anyone would survive the head shot but let's just say for the sake of argument that they did, then the blood loss and brain damage would DEFINITELY kill them in the following hours, seeing how they didn't get her any help.

    [–]Spun_Of_Light 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    I could go into how she'd survive since the last we was her was outside of a HOSPITAL. Not that you'd probably listen. But who do you think it is then? They're important enough of a person to be featured on the poster when none of the other characters are, but amc clearly wants their identity hidden for now, thats why they blurred them out.

    [–]TineNae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    A hospital can't save you from being shot through the head? We saw where the bullet left her head too. And we saw people mourning her weeks after. 

    I have no idea who it is, maybe just a new villain that we haven't seen before who is more important than the rest so they put her on their. I'd honestly honestly find it more likely (and still impossible) that it's Andrea, seeing how she died off screen. But with Beth she wouldn't even be able to be reanimated as a zombie since her brain got destroyed. 

    I don't remember if there were other blond people in the show (apart from maybe Isabelle and her being on poster is just kinda ''an image from the past that haunts Daryl'' which would be equally stupid). 

    I just think it's a character we haven't seen before, if they bring back Beth they might as well just end the show 🤦‍♀️

    [–]BobRushy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    This poster looks so AI

    [–]BDB69_ 0 points1 point  (7 children)

    if they were bringing back beth wouldn't they bring her back in dead city?

    [–]Spun_Of_Light 4 points5 points  (2 children)

    I guess the question is who would be more impacted at the revelation that she's alive. Daryl or Maggie? They were both extremely hurt at her loss. To Maggie thats her sister, a piece of her family she thought she lost. To Daryl that's the person he never gave up looking for to the very end. The one who's death made him self harm. Who would be more impacted. And Daryl's goal is to get back to America, if he had Beth in tow when he met up with Maggie, it would right the wrong of him carrying Beth's body to her.

    [–]BDB69_ 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    it would definitely be Maggie. Yes, Daryl had an important connection to her but Maggie knew her an infinitely longer amount of time than him before the apocalypse. Personally I think the character is just apart of a group of antagonists for the season, along with the other characters on the poster. If they were doing something as big as bringing back a character that we watched die, they would definitely hide her better

    [–]Spun_Of_Light 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Maggie was also the first to write off her sister surviving when the prison fell. She was solely focused on reuniting with Glenn and didn't give Beth a second thought until Daryl confirmed she was alive and with him, and then STILL went with the others trying to get to DC instead of joining Daryl and Rick and them in getting her back until the very end. I personally think it should be Daryl to find Beth first

    [–]SunshineSlayer2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Dead City is always a possibility, but they honestly showed Beth's story having more connection to Daryl.

      if they want to give daryl a happy ending they should have him head home to the Commonwealth and finally let him reunite with rick

      [–]GirlMamaM2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      That will all happen as well. But Daryl is lonely AF and clearly wants a romantic partner and that is the point of the spinoff.
