Joseph (TV Series)

"Woah! It's cool! I swear! Buddy, you can walk right out that back gate there, and I won't say anything to anybody. I'm suppose to be there now, but, listen... I'm... I'm just trying to get by, just like you. Please?"

- Joey's final words, pleading to Daryl

Joseph, more commonly known as Fat Joey, is an antagonist and a survivor of the outbreak in AMC's The Walking Dead. He is a member of The Saviors.

Pre-Apocalypse
Little is known about Joseph's life before the outbreak began except that he was described as a tech geek, being drawn to computers, cameras, and other gadgets. He also worked for the Border Patrol and once caught a kid sneaking over the border and his colleague encouraged him to shoot the kid but he refrained, due to his personality and heart.

"The Cell"
Joey is walking inside the Sanctuary with Negan when he is ordered to watch Daryl as Negan speaks to Dwight. Later, Joey gives Daryl his lunch in his cell and seemingly forgets to lock the cell door as he leaves. When Daryl is finally captured in a courtyard after trying to escape, Joey is among the Saviors, including Chris, to surround Daryl, aiming Rick's Colt Python at him. When Negan asks Joey who he is, Joey responds with "Negan" and eventually beats up Daryl with the other Saviors.

"Sing Me a Song"
Joey is said to be leading away a large herd or walkers away from The Sanctuary through a series of explosives and RPG. Joey is at the Sanctuary with Negan and the other Saviors ready to unload the truck from the Hilltop and talks to Negan on how something went wrong in the process of leading away the walkers but that he'll get right on it by making more explosives thus hinting that he may be an engineer. He is shocked after Carl guns down a couple of Saviors. Later as Negan and Carl talk in Negan's room, Joey nervously interrupts and returns Lucille to Negan since he left it outside by the truck. After laughing along with Negan's jokes on how he handled Lucille, Joey is rudely dismissed.

"Hearts Still Beating"
Joey witnesses Daryl attempting to escape. He pleads Daryl not to kill him, insisting he's just trying to "get by" and will not speak a word of the escape to anyone. He also tells Daryl that he should be guarding the back gate but that he's not at his post thus giving Daryl ample time to escape. Daryl ignores this and brutally beats him to death with a metal pipe; in part so that he won't tell anyone that he is escaping and also as payback for having beat him (alongside other saviors which includes Chris) back when he was trying to escape the first time around. Once Joey is dead, Daryl notices he was armed with Rick's Colt Python and takes it from his corpse. He later returned it to Rick during their reunion at the Hilltop.

Trivia

 * It's implied through both a conversation between Chris and George as well as and Negan and himself that Joey may have been an engineer, in charge of making explosives in order to lure walkers away from the Sanctuary as well as possibly other communities such as the Kingdom and the Hilltop.
 * This was confirmed by what Joshua Hoover (the actor who portrays him) said in an interview with comicbook.com
 * Ironically, his job prior to the apocalypse was being a border patrol guard. He died by not keeping guard of the Sanctuary's "borders"(ie: gates and doors).
