Episode 8.12, "The Key", picked up the pace a bit.
Negan & the Saviors hit the road to "put the fear of God" into Hilltop. A wrathful Rick spots Negan's car, then gives chase in his own car & rams him, causing a wreck. After a short gun battle, they're at it in a dark old building. The fight leads to Negan taking a long fall & dropping Lucille. Rick finds Lucille first, then uses Glenn's lighter to set it ablaze. Walkers start coming, then some get bashed with the flaming bat. Negan gets Lucille back & escapes Rick, only to be captured later by... Jadis. Simon, the Saviors' resident nutjob, takes command then makes plans to exterminate Rick's group. Look out.
There is some speculation that The Whisperers may go to Fear instead of TWD. It's said that Fear is going to have a time jump to catch up with TWD's events.
