Warning: SPOILERS ahead for The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2, episode 3!

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon season 2, episode 4 trailer has been released, teasing Daryl and Carol’s respective escapes as the Pouvoir attack the Nest. At the end of Daryl Dixon season 2, episode 3, Daryl (Norman Reedus) has been captured by the Nest, who want to know where Laurent (Louis Puech Scigliuzzi) is. In the meantime, Carol (Melissa McBride) has been escorted to the Nest by Genet (Anne Charrier) under the guise of wanting to kill Daryl. However, the Pouvoir leader sees through this, intent on killing her and transforming her into a fast zombie.

Now, The Walking Dead (via WotNot) has released a new trailer for Daryl Dixon season 2, teasing Daryl and Carol’s escape from the nest as the Pouvoir plot their attack. The trailer starts with Losang (Joel de la Fuente) interrogating Isabelle (Clémence Poésy) about where Laurent is, while she hides a sharp, rusty shower strainer behind her back. Genet’s troops also gun down a group of prisoners, with Carol falling alongside them, pretending to be dead. The trailer ends with a fiery explosion and someone freeing Daryl, who insists on getting to Laurent.

What Season 2, Episode 4’s Trailer Means For Daryl Dixon Season 2

A Major Conflict Is About To Come To A Head

With the titular protagonist determined to reunite with the boy, the duo, alongside Carol, could be embarking on a lengthy journey to find him and make sure he’s safe.

The major characters in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixonare about to converge at the Nest, with Genet using her attack as a way to test out her powerful zombies’ abilities. This will prove incredibly dangerous for Carol, who will need to find a way to avoid getting injected or killed after falling with the rest of the prisoners. The same goes for Daryl, who remains chained to a shower, making him vulnerable and immobile once the attack starts. While it seems someone will be freeing him, it’s unclear how Carol will be able to make it out unscathed.

In the meantime, Fallou (Eriq Ebouaney) is still waiting for Daryl and Isabelle in the cave with Laurent, though they could be going back to Paris alone if neither arrive on time. With the titular protagonist determined to reunite with the boy, the duo, alongside Carol, could be embarking on a lengthy journey to find him and make sure he’s safe. While it’s still unclear if Laurent is immune to the zombie virus, since he was never bitten during the Nest’s ceremony, the concept could also be explored in episode 4 depending on what happens to him and his companion.

The last time The Walking Dead had a major battle between two communities was during The Whisperer War in season 10. This makes the fight between the Nest and Pouvoir the first big battle featuring veteran characters since the new spinoffs began. Because of how tense the story has become, it’s likely not everyone is making it out alive, save for Daryl and Carol, whose namesakes will keep them safe. As for all the friends and enemies they’ve met, any of them could be killed as the battle between warring ideologies begins.
