Though she originally only speaks in contrived broken English (and complains that others talk too much), she reverts to full sentences following the murders of the Scavengers by Simon and members of the Saviors.

[4] In the mid-season premiere "Rock in the Road", Jadis's group kidnapped Gabriel and then ambushed Rick's team as they searched for him.

In the episode "New Best Friends", when asked by Rick to join forces to defeat the Saviors, Jadis is reluctant but takes it into consideration after being told that they could gain more supplies.

When the explosion fails as Negan and his men wait by the gates, Jadis pulls a gun on Rick and the Scavengers follow suit with the rest of the Alexandrians.

When the Saviors get distracted by the re-animated Sasha, Rick attempts to make another deal with her, but Jadis refuses and shoots him in the abdomen; she pushes him off the platform.

In the mid-season finale "How It's Gotta Be", Rick is abandoned by Jadis and her Scavengers when they discover the aftermath of Daryl's attack on the Sanctuary and are fired on by Savior soldiers.

In the present, she takes time to compose herself before collecting a captive Negan and carrying his modified baseball bat, "Lucille", and a suitcase.

Negan tries to apologize for what happened to her people, recognizing that Simon had gone against his orders in wiping out the Scavengers, but Jadis is steadfast and still threatens to kill him.

Jadis tells Huck, who used to be her mentor, that she has spent six years with the CRM at this point and she briefly mentions several events such as being the leader of a group and their massacre.

Jadis later tells Huck in the series finale "The Last Light" that while she had an 'A', she lied and said that they were a 'B' because she owed them more than letting them become a test subject in the CRM's experiments.

", Jadis begins running a full security audit which is interrupted by the theft of a vial of a variant of chlorine gas.

After Silas Plaskett is captured, Jadis personally interrogates him and grows to like the young man, showing an interest in him as a future CRM soldier.

With Huck having proved her allegiance and earned her full trust, Jadis reveals to her the next stage of the CRM's plan: wipe out the survivor settlement in Portland, Oregon which is over 87,000 people.

Jadis attempts to convince Iris to stop the rebellion, but she refuses, saying the CRM are evil, citing the genocide of Omaha and the Campus Colony as an example.

When Michonne locates Rick and becomes a consigneee, she falsely claims her name is Dana and that she and her sister were once part of a large community that fell during her interview.

Anne sees this interview and deletes the footage, she confronts Rick at his apartment and warns him she will kill everyone in Alexandria if the two attempt to escape, before asking what he is doing.

Jadis states that if she has placed a file among her possessions detailing Alexandria that, in the event of her death, will lead to the CRM finding and destroying it.

In the trap, another fight ensues in which the group are devoured by walkers, a standoff begins, and Jadis again reiterates that Alexandria will be destroyed if she dies.

"[8] Kevin Fitzpatrick of Screen Crush reviewed the season finale "The First Day of the Rest of Your Life" and said that "there's a notable dichotomy between treating that reveal [of Sasha's death] as a moment of surprise, and having Jadis and the junkyard folks' betrayal actually catch viewers off-guard.

The outbreak of war itself isn't any major shock, nor is the lack of any notable casualties, but a non-comic element like Jadis felt like the one true wild card in an otherwise predictable showdown."

He also commented that "as much as Jadis' interaction with Negan reiterates the amusing distinction* her group provides, the 'Heapsters' heel-turn does mean we spent two or three episodes building these characters up as allies, only to have them turn with little explanation, and essentially guarantee their role as enemies next season" and that "Jadis' proposition to 'lay with' Rick offered another wonderful moment of weirdness for this oddly monosyllabic group, but why even bother, given what she knew of how the exchange would go down?

"[10] Stuart Jeffries of The Guardian called her hairstyle "the fringe that's an unwitting homage to King Henry V of England c1415" and said that "Jadis and her gang turned their guns on the Alexandrians.

"[11] Elise Nakhnikian of Slant Magazine was critical that "the mystery isn't so much why Jadis betrayed Rick as why he ever trusted her in the first place.

She clearly never gave a damn about his safety or well-being, tossing him off her trash heap to fight with the armored walker on their first meeting, and she was a mercurial and unreasonable trading partner, insisting that Rick's people go back for more guns after they'd risked so much to bring her the first batch.

Yet he keeps trying to negotiate with her even after she shoots him, offering to strike a new deal until she casually pushes him off yet another high platform, annoyed that he failed to obey her command to kneel down.

"[13] Steve Ford of TV Fanatic reviewed the same episode, saying "It was interesting how Jadis came around after having her face inches away from that walker head's gnawing teeth.

Both actors have been confirmed to take a role in a series of three AMC Original Films to continue Rick's story, with production on the first to initially start in 2019.

[15][16] Lincoln had been working with Scott Gimple, the former showrunner and now current content manager for all of AMC's The Walking Dead properties, about how Rick's story could continue for some time.

[17] On the role in The Walking Dead: World Beyond, AMC Network's Scott Gimple confirmed in a press release: "In our story, years have passed—we'll get hints of what happened with that fateful helicopter ride and learn Jadis has new allies and alliances; she is a big part of connecting the CRM and Three Circles mythology that's seen throughout all three series.

"[20] Walking Dead Chief Content Officer Scott Gimple has said that McIntosh as Jadis/Anne is planned to appear in the upcoming spin-offs, telling the story of what happened after Rick and Jadis departed in a helicopter.
