Andrea’s mistaking Daryl for a walker on AMC’s The Walking Dead will change everything for the woman who, up until recently, was still very much unhappy to be alive.
On last week’s episode, titled “Chupacabra,” Andrea (Laurie Holden) took a step toward becoming the fierce sharpshooter depicted in the Robert Kirkman comic book series on which the show is based on when, in an effort to protect the group, she nearly shoots Daryl (Norman Reedus) from a couple hundred feet away after mistaking him for a walker.
“What’s so mortifying to Andrea is that she’s so eager and anxious that she finally has her opportunity to prove to herself and everybody in the camp that she’s able and a valuable part of the community and she blows it on such a massive level,” Holden tells The Hollywood Reporter. “She almost kills someone that she cares about and is loved by all.”

Andrea has come a long way from the grief-stricken woman who lost her sister in the first season of The Walking Dead. Now the lone survivor of her family, Andrea (Laurie Holden) has used her mourning period to transform into a gun-toting survivor, and also one of the most badass women on Dead — though it came at the price of almost losing Daryl.
"Andrea was finally given a gun, and was so excited to prove to the group, and to herself, that she's an asset, and she blew it on such a massive level and hates herself for it," Holden says of Andrea mistaking Daryl (Norman Reedus) for a walker and nearly blowing his head off. "You'll see in the next few episodes that she really evolves into more a level-headed person. She really overcomes a lot of her issues of grief and petulant behavior. She emerges much stronger."
Shane (Jon Bernthal) takes up the charge of making Andrea into a soldier, of sorts, though his methods may initially prove detrimental. "Shane and Andrea are in many ways cut from the same cloth. He's an alpha male and she's an alpha female. She admires him greatly. He teaches her everything she knows and in the upcoming episodes, he gives her a lot of tough love, which she doesn't appreciate and it gets a little nasty, but at the end of the day, it's the best thing for her because she emerges stronger because of it."
