The Stand: How The Walk Differs from Stephen King s Book
The seventh episode of The Stand arrived on CBS All Access on Thursday with The Walk seeing the aftermath of both the bomb and Mother Abagail s (Whoopi Goldberg) return as well as, as the title of the episode suggests, the departure of Stu Redman (James Marsden), Glen Bateman (Greg Kinnear), Ray Brentner (Irene Bedard), and Larry Underwood (Jovan Adepo) for Vegas on foot.
