The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon episode 3 recap: Isabelle's ex-boyfriend was Laurent's father

The episode began with Daryl, Isabelle, Laurent, and Sylvie finally arriving in Paris after what seemed like a long journey from Marseille. Daryl needed a radio and his new friends had to travel further north to fulfill a prophecy. It was believed that little Laurent was a future Messiah and that he would lead the human civilization to a new beginning.

Upon entering Paris, our heroes entered a cemetery where Daryl spotted the grave of Jim Morrison, the vocalist of The Doors. After educating his new friends about the legendary American band, they came face to face with a community led by a man named Fallou. Fallou quickly realized who they were and gave them shelter in his community.

Daryl asked Fallou to get him a radio so that he could contact the USA for help but, the former was disappointed to learn that the community used pigeons to send and receive long-distance messages. However, Daryl also learned that there was a ship that he could board to get back home. One thing led to another and our heroes entered a nightclub called Demimonde.

Isabelle got the shock of her life when she realized that Demimonde was being run by her ex, Quinn. Quinn even revealed that he was Laurent's father and demanded the duo of Daryl and Isabelle to stay with him if they needed his help. Daryl rejected his offer and he and Isabelle left that place along with Laurent and Sylvie.

Meanwhile, Codron, who was after Daryl's life met with Genet. Since both of them had a common goal, i.e. capturing Daryl, the former was hired by the latter. Elsewhere, Daryl and Isabelle had an argument and Daryl began preparing to go solo once again.

However, right before Daryl was about to leave, the community was raided by Codron and his men. They spotted Daryl and followed him. Thankfully, all our heroes managed to escape, unharmed.
