The group led by Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) reached the Alexandria Safe Zone in the past episode of "The Walking Dead" season 5 titled "Remember." Now, they will have to "Forget" their tumultuous lives.
AMC released the official synopsis for the coming episode, which reads: "As Rick and the others continue to acclimate to their new surroundings, they consider a return to normalcy."
According to spoilers, Rick is still not sure if the people in the Alexandria Safe Zone can be trusted. For him, handing over the authority to a group of newcomers can be a little fishy.
"I don't know if this is some kind of play," Rick says in the promo for the episode.
Meanwhile, Daryl Nixon (Norman Reedus) remains outside the walls, but he is being closely monitored by the people of Alexandria. As he wanders in the woods on his own, he is closely followed by Aaron (Ross Marquand). Annoyed, Daryl aims his gun at the Alexandria recruiter, and as he almost pulls the trigger, a couple of walkers run toward them. The promo ends when Aaron shoots at an unidentified target.
Meanwhile, Wetpaint claims that a possible romance may be brewing for Rick and one of the residents of Alexandria. The report claims that Rick and Jessie (Alexandra Breckenridge) show a strong chemistry in episode 12.
The actress who portrays the role told The Hollywood Reporter that her character genuinely wants to help the new group get accustomed to life in the safe zone.
"She feels very deeply and connects on that level and wants to make it work with them," Breckenridge said. "She wants them to stay. Jessie knows right off the bat that there's maybe a chance that they might leave. Just seeing what kind of state they're in, they're all in this post-traumatic stress place so that's why she goes over to see Rick."
At this point, the actress is still unaware if the relationship between Jessie and Rick will evolve into something deeper.
"The Walking Dead" season 5 episode 13 airs March 8 on AMC.
