It was the right ending. THR: The way the scene was filmed when Andrea frees herself, it seemed like it really could have gone either way for her. Was there talk about changing her outcome? Holden: There were two versions of that that were shot. The first one portrayed her as the ultimate victim and that was not the story that I think needed to be told or that any of us could put our shoulder behind. We went back and did another version — the final version — which is much more satisfactory.
Andrea went out with grace, dignity and was reunited with people she loved and was able to voice how she felt and what was in her heart. THR: Are you stratified with how she went out?
Holden: One-hundred percent. What was written was perfect, organic and true to the character. She needed both hands free to defend herself. It happened all at the same time. The tragedy is what happened if she freed herself a moment sooner.
THR: Do you think Andrea died a hero? How The Walking Dead dealt with Andrea Laurie Holden in season 3 differed greatly both from the comics and from what the writers originally planned for the character. Andrea, a key member of Rick's Andrew Lincoln original group, factored heavily into the main plot of season 3. She met her end after turning against the Governor David Morrissey , with whom she had shared a romantic relationship.
As punishment, the Governor chained her up in his torture room with a zombie. After getting bitten, Andrea killed herself. What happened to Andrea in the season 3 finale isn't at all what happened in the comic book version of the story. After it is overrun, she meets Michonne Hawthorne and is taken to Woodbury eight months later. At Woodbury, Andrea becomes involved in the town's affairs, stepping up as leadership starts lacking.
Later on, Andrea becomes engaged in a relationship with Philip Blake , better known as The Governor, until his true motivations are exposed. She finds herself caught in the crossfire between her previous group and the town of Woodbury, opting for a peaceful resolution between the two conflicting sides. Andrea is strong, cautious, and brave. She was extremely protective of her younger sister before her death.
Never one to shy away from a challenge or a fight. Andrea is stubborn, opinionated and first and foremost interested in keeping herself and those she cares about most out of harms way.
Her closeness to Amy is what directly influences her into becoming suicidal around the end of season one and possibly her reason to punish Dale Horvath , as she blames him for not letting her die in the way she wanted to and continuing to make her live in the cruel post-apocalyptic world. During season two, she begins to become more independent, even considering leaving the group, and wanting to keep the gun her father gave her, despite Dale's disapproval due to her lack of gun knowledge and brief suicidal streak.
However, after adequate training with Shane Walsh , she becomes quite efficient with firearms and became a strong protector for the group and is more than willing to protect the group from any danger. It is shown that Andrea looks up to Shane as a better leader for the group than Rick and follows him on many crucial decisions such as abandoning the search for Sophia and killing the walkers in Hershel's barn.
Her new attitude causes her to neglect helping around the farm in favor of sitting on Dale's RV with a gun much of the time, earning her the ire of the others for not doing her share of the farm's chores.
By season three, she had been separated from the group after the farm was overrun, and was saved by Michonne Hawthorne , with whom she forms a close bond.
After being brought to Woodbury , she begins a relationship with the Governor , which eventually ends when Andrea realizes that the Governor has a dark, sadistic nature.
During the second half of the third season, it is shown that Andrea possesses strong leadership abilities as shown by a speech delivered to the Woodbury people following an attack by Rick and his group and does not see a war between the two groups as necessary.
Andrea was shown to have become very bold as shown by her attempt to kill the Governor in order to protect her former group from certain death by the man but unfortunately failed, leading to her tragic demise.
Andrea was born in , twelve years ahead of her sister. Because of their different personalities, their parents gave them different upbringings. During this time she was in college to study law, Andrea remained distant from her family, frequently missing Amy 's birthday parties. After getting a degree, she eventually became a successful civil rights attorney. Before Andrea and Amy went on a road trip, their father gave Andrea a gun for protection, which she has remained protective over ever since.
During the onset of the outbreak, Andrea and Amy were heading back to Amy's college after their trip when they were stranded in Atlanta. As the city was overrun, they were rescued by Dale Horvath. Sometime later, they encountered and joined a campsite of survivors outside the outskirts of the city.
Inside a department store, Andrea points a gun in Rick 's face as he and Glenn enter. Morales informs Rick that his gunshots have attracted numerous hordes of walkers.
Andrea and the group questions Rick about what he was doing roaming around the streets of Atlanta aimlessly. He tries to explain he was trying to flag down a helicopter. Jacqui suggests that it was just a hallucination. T-Dog tries to make radio contact with the camp, but fails to get a signal, wondering if they might have better luck on higher ground. Suddenly, muffled gunshots are heard. On the roof, Rick and the group find Merle firing at walkers with a rifle. T-Dog chastises him for wasting bullets and attracting more walkers.
Andrea screams at him to stop as Merle beats T-Dog and presses a handgun to his forehead. Rick intervenes, hitting Merle with the butt of the rifle and handcuffing him to a pipe. Morales informs Rick there's no refugee center and that they are part of a larger group of survivors staying outside the city, but T-Dog can't reach them on the radio. With the streets no longer safe, Rick suggests they try to escape underground. Jacqui says that the building might have access to the sewers, prompting Andrea and the group to head back downstairs to the basement.
In the basement, Glenn concocts a plan and sends Andrea and Rick to watch the storefront while he and Morales head down the sewer. At the front of the store, Andrea and Rick keep watch. A while later, Andrea spots a necklace with a mermaid pendant. Rick encourages her to take it, insisting shoplifting rules don't apply anymore. Andrea pockets the necklace, when the walkers break through the exterior glass doors and begin pounding on the interior set.
Glenn, Morales, and Jacqui arrive to report that the sewer is not an option. Andrea and the group heads to the roof. On the roof, Rick spots a cube van at a nearby construction site. The group discusses the difficulty of moving past the walkers undetected. We don't. It's pretty distinct," Andrea says.
Rick latches onto the concept of scent and how the dead use it to differentiate between themselves and the living. A while later, Rick and Morales collect a dead walker from the alley. Inside, Rick acknowledges the walker's lost humanity and then begins hacking the dead body to pieces with an axe. Andrea then helps smear the guts onto Rick and Glenn. Suddenly, Andrea and the rest watch as rain begins to fall rather heavily and washes the guts' smell off of them. Rick and Glenn fight the walkers and manage to get inside the cube van.
On the roof, Andrea and the group worries that they're being left behind but celebrate as Rick drives back for them. Andrea and the group grab their bags and rushes from the rooftop toward the loading dock, with no concern for unlocking Merle's handcuffs.
They manage to get inside the van as the walkers break into the store. Rick drives away from the city as the group catches their breath. They look around at one another and a guilt-ridden T-Dog admits to the others he dropped the key, leaving Merle trapped on the roof, still handcuffed to a pipe. Andrea then asks Rick, "Where's Glenn? Andrea and Amy reunite once she returns to the camp.
When Carl Grimes and Sophia Peletier find a zombie, they scream, prompting the adults to rush to them and killing it. Andrea and Amy watch in disgust as the zombie's head is separated from its body. Later, she is doing laundry with her sister, Jacqui and Carol Peletier.
As the women share what they miss most, she admits she misses her vibrator, prompting the women to break out in laughter.
Ed Peletier walks over to the women in curiosity and tells the women they should be working and not laughing. Sick of Ed's attitude, she begins to stand up for herself and the others, tossing him his laundry saying that if he doesn't like it, he can do it.
Ed throws the laundry back at her and responds that he won't smack her just because she's "some college educated coos". With heated tensions, Carol and Amy try to separate the two, which results Carol in being slapped and Shane Walsh attacking Ed in a fit of rage. The next day, Andrea is fishing with Amy, recollecting memories they had with their father while fishing, and how he raised them differently because he knew they would be special and different.
Later, she returns to camp with a bunch of fish and they all have a nice dinner at night. Dale asks Andrea to back him up on the watch thing, but she disagrees. Prior to the dinner, she is in Dale's RV looking for wrapping paper to wrap the mermaid necklace for Amy, since it is her birthday soon. Unfortunately, zombies attack the camp, killing several people, including Amy, which leaves Andrea very, very distraught as Amy dies in her arms. A deeply disturbed Andrea hovers over her sister's body for countless hours, waiting anxiously for her to turn into one of the undead and hardly ever keeping her eyes off her.
She pays little attention to most of the people around, refusing to be distracted. She even resorts to pointing a gun at Rick when he comes near her and tries to get her focus off of Amy.
Dale at the end of the day tries to comfort her by telling about his wife's death, to which she opens up shortly afterward. Andrea witnesses Amy's transformation finally, and after a moment of holding her, shoots her in the side of the head.
Along with the rest of the survivors, Andrea finds herself in the CDC. She is in a deep state of depression since Amy's death, and tells Dale that, despite the idea that they can start a new life, there's nothing left for her to live for. When the building's energy resources begin to run low, a countdown is initiated.
Edwin Jenner , the sole doctor to remain at the building, explains it as the process of "decontamination", and that the building is sealed shut and there is no way out. Andrea, devastated by the fact that she has lost everything, decides to remain in the building even when Dr.
Jenner unlocks the door of the basement to allow the other survivors a chance to escape. Jacqui, Dr. Jenner, and Andrea have decided on their fates, until Dale remains in a way to convince Andrea not to. Both Dale and Andrea decide to stay momentarily, until the dying seconds. Just before the C. Surviving the self-destruction of the C. Following their escape from the CDC, Andrea begins punishing Dale for guilting her into leaving the CDC, effectively robbing her of making her own choice.
Stopped on the highway, Andrea is caught off-guard when a herd approaches, and is forced to seek refuge in the RV bathroom. As a walker shuffles into the RV, Andrea tries to re-assemble her pistol in haste, causing enough noise to alert the walker. Dale's quick thinking gives Andrea the means to defend herself, and she plunges a screwdriver through her assailant's head as it lunges at her.
Andrea wanted to use the pistol to dispatch the walker instead of a silent weapon, and a gunshot would have alerted the rest of the herd. Dale, Rick, and Shane believe it is in the best interest of the group to only allow those who have been properly trained to use firearms. This makes Andrea even angrier with Dale. In searching for Sophia, the group is drawn to a church. There, Andrea overhears Shane and Lori's discussion and Shane agrees to leave when the chance comes.
After, Andrea confronts Shane and asks to go with him. The survivors continue searching for Sophia. Andrea is attacked by a walker, but she is saved by Maggie on horseback. Back at the RV, there is still tension between her and Dale, even as he asks for her forgiveness for some of the decisions he has made on her behalf.
He reluctantly returns her father's pistol to Andrea, but asks that she doesn't make him regret it. Andrea decides to join Daryl in a midnight search for Sophia. During their walk in the woods they discuss Sophia's chances, and come across a suicide victim by hanging. Though the suicide worked, it didn't prevent reanimation and the man now hangs helplessly in the tree as a walker. Daryl asks Andrea if she wishes to continue on living. She bargains with Daryl that she will answer his question if he puts the suspended walker out of its misery.
Andrea and the other survivors who remained on the highway arrive the next morning at the farm of Hershel Greene , where Carl was taken after being shot. Though Andrea plays a minor role in this episode, she is part of the most notable scene with the survivors attempting to retrieve the 'swimmer' from the bottom of one of the five wells on Hershel's property.
As Glenn is lowered into the well to lasso the water-logged walker, the pump breaks. As Andrea and the other survivors struggle to re-stabilize the rope, Glenn dangles precariously within the walker's grasp.
Once this near-tragedy is averted, Andrea, along with the other survivors, attempt to hoist the walker out of the well before killing it to avoid contaminating the well.
However, the walker's body is too badly deteriorated and strained by the weight of the extra water it has absorbed to withstand the stress of being pulled from the well. Its body is ripped in half as it crosses the threshold, and the bottom half falls back into the well.
Andrea and the other survivors are disgusted, moreover frustrated that the well is now contaminated despite their best efforts. Andrea begins to transition from a depressed and unstable personality into a stronger and more dependable survivor, showing a desire to help the group and concern for others when she takes leadership of one of the sub-groups that leaves the farm to search for Sophia, and later elects to take watch on top of the RV.
She has increased her gun-wielding prowess and believes that she is now able to dispatch threats from a distance with proficiency. She is excited upon spotting a lone walker approach the farm, as it presents an opportunity for her to prove herself to the others. Though Rick and the other survivors advise her not to shoot, Andrea fires on the walker from atop the RV but learns afterward that it was actually Daryl, limping back from his difficult ordeal in the woods.
Luckily for Daryl, her aim is not quite spot-on just yet, as the bullet only grazes his head. Though Andrea is mortified that she almost killed Daryl, it may prove to be only a minor setback to her growing confidence.
Andrea apologizes to Daryl for shooting him and he forgives her. A short time later, Andrea continues to sharpen her shooting skills under Shane's tutelage, but has difficulty hitting a moving target. Adding yet another layer of difficulty, Shane distracts and agitates Andrea, trying to simulate a live environment. He eventually goes too far when he brings up Amy, but the two reconcile when Shane asks her to go with him on a dangerous mission to check out a lead on Sophia.
Andrea follows Shane into a house to discover charred and rotting corpses and no signs of Sophia. A group of walkers are alerted to their presence, and the two are forced to bolt for the exit. More walkers have collected in the street and are blocking their escape.
Shane clears out the walkers around their car, and assigns Andrea to cover the street. She can't seem to shoot any of her targets in the head, and walkers continue to advance on her. Shane picks off the nearest one and then lowers his weapon indicating that it's sink or swim time. As a walker gets almost within arm's length, She blasts a hole in its head before it touches her, and she becomes much more precise, nailing all head shots thereafter.
Andrea walks towards the car but stops to take aim at the next wave of walkers closing in and the scene ends, but it is assumed that she dispatches them flawlessly. On the way back, Andrea grabs Shane's crotch.
Shane stops the car and says "Come on then" and the two have sex. After the discussion regarding the walkers in the barn, Andrea prepares herself in the RV to guard the barn as Shane requested. Dale tries to warn Andrea about Shane, but Andrea supports Shane's sentiments, adding "He's not a victim. Rick, Hershel, and Jimmy return with two fresh walkers who had been trapped in the swamp.
Before they can load them into the barn with the others, Shane goes over the edge, declaring that he's had 'enough. Andrea quickly takes a spot next to Shane, forming a firing line to repel the walker onslaught.
Andrea, Shane, Glenn, T-Dog , and Daryl gun down the walkers as they emerge, until zombified Sophia appears, stunning all except for Rick, who steps up to dispatch her.
Emotions run high in the aftermath of the barn walker massacre. Beth Greene goes over to her mother Annette to mourn, but Annette is not dead and attacks Beth. Andrea drives a scythe through the zombified Annette's head to end the struggle. After the funeral, Andrea and T-Dog pile corpses into Otis's truck, saying that Shane did what needed to be done. Dale protests, suggesting that a new problem with Hershel was created in the wake of resolving the safety concern of the barn walkers.
Andrea, T-Dog, and Shane all burn the barn walkers behind the barn. At the farmhouse, everyone is preparing for dinner when Shane realizes Lori is missing.
Andrea says that Lori had asked her to watch Carl, and they conclude that she had left in search of Rick and Hershel. Shane goes after Lori. After retrieving her, Shane talks to Lori about their affair and that his feelings remain strong, but doesn't mention the sexual encounter with Andrea. The next morning, Shane, Andrea and Daryl are preparing to go after Rick when Hershel's car approaches and Rick's crew piles out.
Andrea asks what they should do with Randall , a survivor whom Rick, Hershel, and Glenn rescued the night before. Rick discusses releasing him away from the farm when he heals. Shane sees Randall as a threat and wants to kill him outright. Outside, Andrea tells Shane she agrees with him about Randall and about several other things, but says that his presentation leaves something to be desired. Shane says that he regrets not leaving with her when they had the chance. Andrea is first shown on top of Dale's RV, keeping watch.
Lori asks if she has seen Hershel or Maggie anywhere, and told her to get them immediately. Maggie scolds Beth for thinking about suicide as Lori and Andrea listen from nearby. Andrea mentions that Lori shouldn't have taken the knife away from Beth, and that Beth needs to make her own choice. Lori is shocked by the notion, commenting on Andrea's own suicidal situation, showing that she resents Andrea for not helping with the chores.
Andrea says that she helps keep the camp safe, which is more important than laundry, and also resents Lori for having been so lucky to retain her family through the apocalypse, noting that suicide is a viable option for others who have not been so fortunate. Andrea leaves the conversation with Lori and offers to relieve Maggie on keeping an eye on Beth.
