Show
starts with Deanna in morning. She plays the run mix that her son, Aiden, had
for when he went on runs. We watch Carol as she makes a tuna casserole and she is visited by Sammy.
Sasha is in the watch tower ready to take out any walkers but she is having
problems focusing. Carol delivers the casserole to Deanna but Deanna just
leaves it on the porch and burns the condolence letter. Daryl is out in the
woods with Aaron and they spot a light in the distance and
note that someone is out there with them. Nicholas tells his story of what
happened and blames it on the others. Deanna grounds both Nicholas and Glenn. Rick
tells Glenn that we do not answer to their rules but Glenn says they have to
make it work. Rick and Carol discuss Pete. Sammy has a bolt inside his closet
where he can stay hidden. Carol is pushing Rick hard to handle the Pete
situation.
Pete
comes up to Rick to speak to him and ask if he is okay. Rick gives him the
crazy look and tells him to keep walking. Michonne takes stock of her uniform.
Rosita visits Michonne and says Tara is stable. She warns Michonne that Sasha stayed the
night in the tower and has not been seen since. Rosita and Michonne go out to
look for her in the woods. (badass chick unite) Michonne leaves her uniform behind. They have a heart to heart
about being safe and moving on from the horrors of being on the road. Deanna is
out at the grave of her son. Rick shows up and gives his condolences. Rick
mentions that problem with Pete. Rick suggests that they separate them. Deanna
asks what happens if he does not comply. Deana refuses to allow for Pete's
execution. Deanna says they do not do that they just exile people. Rosita and
Michonne come across dead walkers. They are all shot in the back of the head
and Michonne notes that Sasha is hunting them. Carl is out in the woods with
emo-girl. She takes off into the woods and Carl is running with her.
Aaron
and Daryl come across body parts that are fresh. They continue to scout out who
may have done the carnage. They come across a female that has been tied up to a
tree and she was fed on and torn apart. It is fresh as well. The woman has a W
on her forehead and becomes a walker right then. Rick speaks to Jessie. Rick is blunt and mentions that the beatings have to stop. Jessie says it will
stop but Rick says he knows it will not and he will do what is necessary for it
to stop. Jessie says she can take care of herself and for Rick to leave her
alone. Rick walks away upset and appears to be having some sort of meltdown. Rick
goes back to Jessie and says her son asks for a gun to protect her. Rick begs
her to says yes and let him protect her sons and her. She finally says yes as a
drunk Pete shows up. Jessie stands up to her husband and tells him to leave. A
fight breaks out between Rick and Pete and they go through the window.
My thoughts: This episode was designed to set up the hour and a half season finale. Things are heating up on the outside as Daryl and Rick come across mutilations and things are getting more intense on the inside as Rick and Sasha both seemed to have snapped. Rick has reached a whole different level of crazy. He believes he knows what is right for everyone and that is not sitting well with Deanna. We all knew that Nicholas was going to lie but he should have admitted to being a coward, you can respect someone who admits their weakness instead of continuing to lie. Personally I think they were being heavy handed with the red balloon and the W concept. Subtlety can make a show work you do not have to beat us over the head with symbolism. The question is who is going to die in the final episode. Share your thoughts in the comments?
