On the page, she’s bald underneath the mask, something Morton has experience with from Minority Report, though it’s not clear yet if her on-camera pate will be absolutely faithful to that. Naturally, Negan will declare that he is in love with her (if the comic storyline holds), though his sincerity, as usual, is hard to gauge.Alpha’s second-in-command, Beta, never removes his mask. This would appear to be our first look at him: 
Alpha also has a daughter who served as a love interest for Carl; obviously that’s going to be different on the show. Carol and Ezekiel’s son Henry would seem to be the natural substitute, but we’ll see.Here’s the official synopsis for the rest of the season:
The second half of “The Walking Dead†Season 9 finds our groups of survivors, both old and new, continuing to deal with the impact of events that took place during the six years that have passed. Since the disappearance of Rick, many of these characters have become strangers to each other, and in some ways, strangers to themselves. What they do know is that they are in undeniable danger. They will soon realize the world just beyond does not operate as they thought. The group’s rules and ways of survival no longer guarantee their safety. A whole new threat has crossed their paths, and they soon discover it’s unlike any threat they have encountered or endured before. The group will start to question what they think they see. What may appear to be normal in this post-apocalyptic world could actually be more disturbing and terrifying than when the apocalypse first broke out. All that is certain is the stakes are high and numerous.
That last line is actually a nasty pun, given the Whisperer’s penchant for putting adversaries’ heads on actual stakes. Kudos, AMC copy writer.
