Beware of a sickening scene involving Carl Grimes in the next episode of "The Walking Dead". A new photo posted on the show's official Instagram account confirms that one of the iconic moments from the comic books will be realized on the TV series later this week.
The picture features Carl, who got shot in the face and lost his right eye in season 6, without his eyepatch on. Keeping the intriguing yet graphic scene intact for now, the words "Carl uncovered" are written on the image to cover major part of his right eye.
In the previous episode, Carl's riding in the back of a Savior truck to the Sanctuary after he arrived at the Hilltop. Also hopping the truck is Jesus. Scott Gimple said of the two characters' different missions, "There are different missions. One of them is an assassination mission and one is more recon, but now they've been thrown together with different missions, and how that plays out with each other we'll see."
[SPOILER ALERT!] In the comics, Carl unloads a machine gun upon arrival. He is, however, outnumbered and is taken hostage by Negan. He's later forced to remove his eyepatch and unveil his scar, before singing a song to Negan.
Aptly titled "Sing Me a Song", the new episode of "The Walking Dead" airs Sunday, December 4 at 9/8c on AMC.
