This article is about the TV Series character. You may be looking for her Comic Series counterpart. For other pages with the same name, see: Molly

I'm a dead woman walking... which puts us in exactly the same boat.
―Molly to Carol Peletier.[src]

Molly, also referred to as Molls by her friends, is an antagonist and a survivor of the outbreak in AMC's The Walking Dead. She is a member of the Saviors and served as one of the two tertiary antagonists of the episode "The Same Boat" (along with Donnie).

Overview[]

Molly is a violent and brutal, but also somewhat humorous woman. Due to her smoking habits and cancer, she is well-aware that she probably will die soon, but keeps a jovial attitude about it. She even laughs when she is advised to stop smoking despite it causing her to cough out tons of blood. She generally gets along with her fellow Saviors, though they sometimes have to keep her in line. She has a condescending attitude towards Maggie and more specifically Carol who she sees as weak. Despite her old age and condition, she is shown to be able to hold her own against walkers. After she is bitten by a zombified Donnie, she loses it and looks to kill Maggie and Carol before Maggie knocks her down and bashes her head in.

Pre-Apocalypse[]

Texas, United States[]

Nothing is known about Molly's life prior to or as the outbreak began, except that she lived in Texas.

Post-Apocalypse[]

Washington, D.C.[]

At some point in the apocalypse, Molly somehow came into contact with a group named "the Saviors" which she subsequently joined.

Molly aided her group in terrorizing other survivors and communities around the area into subjugating to Negan's will, where their victims would be forced to give half their supplies in exchange for not being murdered.

Season 6[]

"The Same Boat"[]

Having escaped from the Satellite Outpost, Molly is among the Saviors to capture Maggie and Carol in the woods. The next morning, they bring the women to a safehouse and tie them up, waiting for reinforcements to arrive in order to prepare for a potential exchange to save Primo from Rick. As Carol is tied up, Molly taunts her for hyperventilating and scoffs at Carol when she says she shouldn't smoke near Maggie because of the baby.

Later that day, Molly and Paula question Carol over her group's motives in their unprovoked attack on the compound. Carol answers that they had previously been attacked by a few of their people, to which Molly realizes that they had encountered and killed Timmy's group, although she snidely comments they deserved what had happened to them.

While securing the safehouse for their reinforcements, Molly returns to the room where Donnie is unconscious to check on him, only to be surprised and bitten by a zombified Donnie. She manages to kill him and then looks around for Maggie and Carol, when suddenly Maggie bursts into the room and bludgeons her to death with her own pistol.

Death[]

Killed By

When Molly enters the room Carol is held in to check up on her, she gets bitten in the arm by a zombified Donnie, who has died of blood loss, and was tied by Carol to attack her.

Trivia[]

  • The casting call for this character used the name Mary.[1]
    • Molly was described as "50s to 60s. Like someone's black sheep biker great aunt. An extrovert with badass Texan charm and a darkly humorous take on life. She knows she's not long for this world, but doesn't let that get her down. In spite of her age and general demeanor, she is not someone you want to mess with."
  • In the DVD commentary for "The Same Boat", it is revealed that Molly had lung cancer. It is unknown if she got it before or after the apocalypse.
