As a long-time fan of The Walking Dead, I must say that the second episode of “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol” has left me absolutely smitten! Norman Reedus’ portrayal of Daryl’s emotional journey, his growing affection for Isabelle and Laurent, and his longing to be reunited with his American family, is nothing short of captivating.
In the second installment of “The Walking Dead,” titled “Daryl Dixon – The Book of Carol, ” we witness Daryl’s (Norman Reedus) growing feelings and attachment towards Isabelle (Clémence Poésy) and Laurent (Louis Puech Scigliuzzi). Simultaneously, his heart yearns for the reunion with his family in America.
Proceed with caution, as the following material reveals plot points from episode 202 titled “Moulin Rouge” within the series The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon’s Chronicles (Carol’s Journal).
Daryl has historically been a solitary figure, his turbulent childhood still lingering into his adult years, instilling within him a sense of unworthiness when it comes to receiving love. Despite the constant, unconditional affection shown by Carol, Rick, Judith, and others, he remains unable to fully shake off this belief that he’s undeserving of such affections. His brief, tumultuous romantic encounter with Leah (Lynn Collins) further reinforced his view of humanity, even those who claim love. Could Daryl eventually find genuine love in Isabelle and fatherhood with Laurent?
The latest episode of “Moulin Rouge” gets further explanation from its inside scoop.
In the initial season, Daryl develops a profound affection for Laurent and Isabelle. As time passes, their bond strengthens, particularly in the second season. Notable moments like the family baseball game, Daryl extending an invitation for them to join him at his home, and even a shared kiss indicate this growing connection. Thus, Daryl’s concept of what constitutes ‘home’ evolves.
The three actors found filming the baseball scene incredibly enjoyable. Reedus commented that the scene was tailored for them, allowing room for improvisation which made it feel more authentic. Reedus jokingly teased Scigliuzzi about his character Laurent’s scripted home run on the first swing, saying “Yeah, yeah, take 30.” It turned out that Scigliuzzi had no experience with American baseball, but his grandpa played for Italy. Interestingly, Reedus and Poesy mentioned that he ended up being quite skilled at it.
In this setting, Daryl found great significance, as it resembled a peaceful family moment. Daryl has been guiding Laurent, someone he considers his protege, in aspects of life that others find unimportant according to the Next. Moreover, Daryl was further strengthening his connection with Isabelle, as she continues to uncover more about him beneath his tough facade.
David Zabel, the showrunner, mentioned that they were unsure about where Daryl and Isabelle’s story might go, but once they found the right chemistry, they felt confident they had brought their relationship to life visually, culminating in the kiss.
Isabelle agrees to accompany Daryl following the apparent kidnapping of Laurent. Recognizing that The Nest is no longer secure for any of them, she decides to leave in order to keep her promise to her sister and safeguard her nephew. This decision culminates in a kiss from Daryl, an action he rarely bestows.
In a playful take on events, Reedus and Poesy both experienced the challenges of shooting that particular scene. The day in question was plagued by an infestation of bugs and the wind played a mischievous role, disrupting the tender intimacy required for the sunset kiss. Reedus humorously recounted the bugs colliding with their faces, his hair being blown into his eyes as they struggled to film the romantic moment. He praised Poesy’s resilience, calling it an enjoyable scene to work on, and expressed satisfaction with the final product.
Fans often discuss Daryl’s personal life, with some hoping he’ll find lasting love. Some think he already has, whether it’s with Carol or Connie (Lauren Ridloff). The upcoming developments in their relationship are intriguing, especially since Carol is now in France, and the third season will take the story to Spain.
