The Walking Dead – Daryl Dixon: Season 2 plot

This is what happened in the Season 1 finale

The Season 1 finale featured a climactic showdown in a Madame Genet arena where Daryl had to fight super zombies. With the help of the Union de l’espoir, he and Quinn are initially able to escape, but unfortunately Daryl discovers a bite on Quinn.

Ultimately, Quinn realizes that he can only help the others if he fights against the Pouvoir with the last of his life and thus buys the others time. At the same time, Isabelle and Laurent are able to escape because Isabelle cleverly steals her guard’s keys.

Isabelle reveals to Daryl in a private conversation that she lied to him a little. The picture that Laurent supposedly painted of Daryl before Daryl’s arrival was actually created after Isabelle discovered Daryl. She just wanted to convince Daryl to help them. As they flee, they are caught by Codron and his men. One of them injures Isabelle’s shoulder.

Cordron decides at the last second not to take revenge for his brother’s death and instead shoots the Guerriers. Codron later tells Madame Genet that he is the only survivor of Daryl and Co.’s attack, but she doesn’t want to believe him. He admits that he couldn’t kill Laurent. Genet wants to torture him for information about where the Union’s nest is.

Daryl Dixon, Isabelle, Laurent and Sylvie arrive at the nest in Mont-Saint-Michel in Normandy, the headquarters of the Union de l’espoir. Everyone lives there in harmony and Daryl immediately gets involved in the community and gives the members a shooting lesson so that they are prepared for the attack by Genet’s men.

The Buddhist monk Losang is the leader of the Union. He promises Daryl that he can first take him to England with a fisherman, where he can then travel with other boats to Newfoundland, but from there Daryl has to figure out how to get home himself. Daryl accepts the offer. He hastily says goodbye to Isabelle and leaves a Rubik’s cube for the sleeping Laurent. On his way to the beach where the boat is supposed to pick him up, he discovers graves from World War II and even that of his grandfather.

He spots the boat on the sea and tries to get its attention, but instead he attracts some zombies that he has to fight. Laurent appears out of nowhere and calls for Daryl. Daryl hesitates, but everything indicates that he will go back to Laurent.

This is what awaits us in “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol”

Then a small teaser for the second season of “Daryl Dixon” starts. Carol Peletier travels through Maine looking for clues about what happened to her boyfriend Daryl. She discovers a dubious man on Daryl’s motorcycle, knocks him out and puts him in the trunk of her car and elicits clues about Daryl’s last whereabouts.

It is now known that Carol (McBride) actually finds a way to travel to France. It was revealed at New York Comic-Con 2023 that Carol will star in Season 2. Daryl and Carol could both travel back to the Commonwealth together in the second season. But first Daryl has to fight Genet’s troops, who are making their way to the nest.

It is now clear that “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon” will have a third season, set in Spain. The European adventures of our power duo Caryl are far from over.

The Walking Dead – Daryl Dixon: Season 2 cast

What is certain is that Norman Reedus will slip back into the eponymous role of Daryl Dixon. Melissa McBride will reprise the role of Carol Peletier. Clémence Poésy as Sister Isabelle, Louis Puech Scigliuzzi as Laurent and Laika Blanc-Francard as Sister Sylvie are also very likely to return. Romain Levi also returns as Stéphane Codron. Eriq Ebouaney plays the role of Fallou.

Newly confirmed is “The Resident” actor Manish Dayal. He will play the role of Ash, an engineer from Boston who has been living in his family’s vacation home in Maine since the apocalypse broke out. Ash has a strict daily routine that consists of doing rounds in his converted single-engine plane every day and also visiting the mysterious greenhouse in his garden (via Deadline).

Since he lives in Maine, it stands to reason that Carol will encounter him in her search for Daryl and his plane will also play a role in her trip to France.
