TWD Dead City Season 2, Episode 5 Trailer: Negan Confronts Another Manhattan Group As Bruegel Arrives In Central Park

A new trailer for The Walking Dead: Dead City season 2, episode 5 teases Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) confronting another Manhattan group as Bruegel (Kim Coates) arrives in Central Park. Dead City season 2, episode 4 focused on Negan getting Bruegel to join the Dama's (Lisa Emery) alliance, blackmailing him because his so-called champion fighting zombie was really a person the whole time. He also told Maggie (Lauren Cohan) the location of a methane production facility, which could help New Babylon's communities learn more about and utilize the technology for themselves.

Now, AMC (via WotNot) has released a new trailer for Dead City season 2, episode 5, focusing on Negan trying to convince Manhattan's last holdout, Christos (Jake Weary), to join the Dama's alliance. Meanwhile, Lucia (Dascha Polanco) seemingly turns on the Foragers, also demanding Negan is found and brought to her. Multiple scenes suggest chaos is about to unfold, such as Hershel looking at a massive fire, Maggie fighting someone in the forest, Negan killing a zombie in the streets with Lucille, and Bruegel arriving in Central Park.

What Dead City Season 2, Episode 5's Trailer Means For The Show

A Turning Point For The Series Is About To Happen

While the first half of season 2 has been building out the world of Manhattan, it seems many conflicts are about to come to a head during episode 5. Dead City characters making big decisions include Lucia turning against the Foragers, seemingly destroying their home in the process.

Bruegel's arrival in Central Park also emphasizes how little he trusts the Dama, but that he's interested in learning more about what New Babylon is doing on the island. As for Maggie, it seems like she'll be forced to find Negan now that the marshal knows he's still alive. In the meantime, it also appears her mission with Perlie (Gaius Charles) and Hershel (Logan Kim) to find the methane production facility is going to be upended by Lucia's actions.

The same might be said for Ginny (Mahina Napoleon) as well, who is aiming her gun at someone offscreen in the trailer. This could be Negan now that it's been established she wants him dead after learning he killed her father at the end of Dead City season 1. Depending on how these multifaceted events unfold, some big changes might be coming to Manhattan in the process.
