"The Walking Dead" season 7 episode 5 is finally going to take fans back to the Hilltop colony where Maggie (Lauren Cohan) is getting treated by Dr. Carson (R. Keith Harris).

Here's a look at the trailer.

As expected, the colony's cowardly leader Gregory (Xander Berkeley) is starting to panic once he hears about what happened to Rick's (Andrew Lincoln) group when Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) caught them on the road. The deal to take out Negan may have sounded like a golden opportunity to Gregory when the offer was made, but now he's afraid that Negan will find out about the agreement.

And right on cue, Negan's right-hand man Simon (Steven Ogg) and several other Saviors arrive at Hilltop to collect their half of the supplies. Gregory must have pissed his pants when Simon told him they needed to discuss something. Meanwhile, Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) and Jesus (Tom Payne) appear to be hiding indoors while the Saviors are busy terrorizing the residents of the colony.

The trailer also shows Carl (Chandler Riggs) and Michonne (Danai Gurira) talking about Rick's decision to submit to Negan's rule. Carl thinks his father is wrong, but Michonne seems to have softened her stance after their conversation in the previous episode. Apparently, Rick isn't in Alexandria at the moment. Where could he be?

Rick doesn't know where the Sanctuary is located, but eagle-eyed fans have noticed something. Negan refused to let Rick talk with Daryl (Norman Reedus) in the previous episode; however, fans believe he managed to tell Rick the location to the Savior's base by using Morse code. Actually, he did it by blinking his eyes.

Fans theorized that Daryl did this to tell Rick that the base is somewhere east. If Rick knows the location, is he going to make a move? Find out when "The Walking Dead" season 7 episode 5 airs on Nov. 20, at 9 p.m. ET on AMC.
