I'm gonna do that." she tells her and walks inside. Inside the Grimes' house, she makes lemonade for Negan while caring for Judith, just as she promised. She, Negan, Judith, and Carl all sit down to eat while they wait for Rick to return. Later that day when Negan and Spencer play pool, Olivia watches on the porch with Carl.
