"Conquer" delivers what every The Walking Dead episode finale offers and excels at it. Easily it is one of those episodes that makes your heart race and pushes you to the edge of your seat.

The episode does not have a large scale war between humans or anything, it's the tense sequences, brilliant acting and well made shots that get the episode going. One of the things that I liked about this episode is how they properly used the zombies, they didn't just throw in some zombies for no reason, it added tension and made me feel scared for our protagonists. Of course it wasn't just zombies, but the human antagonists were also very threatening. I also liked the way the episode showed how the characters changed from what they were in entering the safe zone. Particularly Father Gabriel's character whom we all felt sympathy for at the start of the season and eventually hate him at the end on how he despises Rick's group. The episode added depth to the characters and developed them well in this season the most. I also liked the way how the episode usually speaks visually brought by brilliant shots and cinematography. This episode was like the previous season finale in the previous season. It was intense and thrilling and of course teases us to another set of villains set for the next season. The visuals and gore was also taken up a notch for this episode and the dialogue was excellent as well. Season 5 is a step up for The Walking Dead still with some flaws that still can be fixed with future seasons. The show is diving in to more and more great story lines from the comics waiting to be shown on screen. Let's just hope they don't lose quality as they progress to bigger heights

+An intense episode, +Brilliant acting, +Brilliant cinematography, +Great use of the zombies, +Development for Characters, +Gore, +An intense climax

Verdict: 9.5/10

This extended season finale of The Walking Dead truly delivered. Those extra twenty minutes were able to make such a difference by adding a lot more to the story, allowing the episode to wholeheartedly deliver on all fronts.

We had a blast from the past with Morgan, conflicts were resolved in Alexandria which had been building up for the past few episodes, and we were given a glimpse into what season six has to offer. Could we have asked for a better season finale?

Admittedly, the episode does start off slowly. But - like Rick - we were confused as to where things would stand after the previous episode's final seconds (in which Rick was knocked unconscious by Michonne), so to immediately drop us into the action would have been too overwhelming.

The original group of our survivors all reconvene and discuss what happened and what their plans are for the evening, in which Deanna plans to have a discussion about the future of Alexandria and who will be inside its walls. We're a little hesitant with Michonne and Glenn, as they still seem to be all aboard the Alexandria bandwagon. Carol feels this way too since - after they've all left - she and Rick have their own private meeting.

Side note: isn't Carol just *such* a badass now? Honestly, the bond which she and Rick have is simply unbreakable. After this season premiere's reintroduction of Carol into the group, she's clearly regained Rick's trust and as a result they have grown closer than ever before. Look at how she dealt with the abusive and cowardly surgeon: despite being a foot shorter, at least fifty pounds lighter, and overall significantly weaker, she does not hesitate to stand up to him and put him in his place. She's so fearless that she even has the nerve to tell him to clean the dish and return it to her after he's done with it! Go Carol! She's come a long way from the first season and seeing her act like this was simply inspiring.

Daryl and Aaron run into a trap set by our future foes from season six. They have been trying to recruit new people for Alexandria with no luck, and the trap only emphasises this further. Just like Carol and Rick, Daryl and Aaron also have a strong bond. When Daryl says he'll distract the Walkers to allow Aaron to escape, Aaron refuses, and they agree to do it together. But before they can, Morgan saves the day and comes to their rescue.

Glenn got some form of vengeance with Nicholas as he brings him to tears at gunpoint. Why didn't Glenn pull the trigger? After all, Nicholas did shoot him! It's not like he doesn't deserve it, and he most certainly won't change his ways.

Father Gabriel. This guy is turning out to be a nuisance. Repeatedly this episode I found myself utterly furious at his actions: strolling out to get eaten by Walkers and then crying when he couldn't let himself be taken so easily, negligently (or more likely deliberately) leaving the gate open, and trying to manipulate Sasha into killing him because he's too cowardly to do it himself. And this guy has the nerve to wear a white shirt - connoting innocence! He is most definitely not innocent; he has sinned just as much as any of our survivors.

Before the big discussion, Michonne makes her decision clear: she's sticking with the original group of survivors. If they can get the people of Alexandria to cooperate, that's fantastic, but she's not prepared to lose anyone for their sake. And in this sense, Father Gabriel was right to complain to Deanna and warn her. Despite his cowardice, he is very insightful.

That being said, in the post-credits scene Michonne is seen wearing her constable uniform of Alexandria, yet she also chooses to carry her Katana rather than shelve it again. This indicates that she has adapted into a survivor/Alexandria resident. She's a hybrid in the sense that she's committed to both Alexandria and the survivors. She now sees both of these roles encompassed into one.

As Rick bursts into the evening meeting covered in blood after having dealt with Father Gabriel's mess, he is able to captivate the people of Alexandria and continue where he left off in one final plea to convince them to trust him. As it turns out, the one person that needed to die in order for Deanna to trust Rick was the one she cared for most: her husband. As the surgeon - Pete - slits her husbands throat, Deanna gives Rick the all clear:

"Do it, Rick."

And that's that. Trust is earned. Lesson learned.

We are at an interesting point now; I predicted that it would all fall apart and end in a bloodbath like Woodbury did, yet the opposite has happened. Obviously, the "Wolves" will be coming next season, but I'm glad we're going to have some form of stability for the next season premiere as our survivors won't be leaving another ruined town behind as they head out on the road again. We know to expect more Morgan, more Wolves, and more Walkers. All I can say is:

Bring. It. On.

The fifth season of THE WALKING DEAD started off with a bang with No Sanctuary and now we have this great finale to the season as a bookend. It delivered on all levels, giving the fans some satisfying payoffs to plot threads left dangling in the second half of season when Rick and the gang reached the safety of Alexandria, Virginia.

I don't think there was ever an episode with this much going on at once: Darryl and Aaron's ill fated scouting trip and ambush at the warehouse; Nicholas and Glenn's adventure in the woods; Sasha's slow rolling mental meltdown; Father Gabriel's epic guilt trip; Carole's undercover work as a happy housewife; Abraham and Eugene finally face to face after the former's kicking of the latter's ass; not to mention the overall arc concerning the aftermath of Rick Grimes's total beatdown of the abusive Pete in the previous episode.

And they didn't skimp on the action; Darryl and Aaron's narrow escape from the horde of Parking Lot Walkers will go down not only as one of highlights of Season 5, but of the whole series, with Darryl getting one of his best badass moments ever. Then there is Rick's desperate throw down with the Walkers who managed to slip past the gate due to Gabriel's negligence, when he reminds us once again just how hardcore the Zombie Apocalypse has made him.

Yet this episode was unique among season finales in that it had satisfying resolutions to many of the ongoing conflicts, but not in the ways many fans expected, especially when seen in the light of other season and mid season wrap ups. This time there was a definite theme of forgiveness and redemption, all the more powerful because in a couple of cases, it is most certainly not deserved. We've seen how hard these characters have become, especially after the Governor and Terminus, and it was nice to see that their humanity was not completely lost-they still have a choice.

There was also some of the best dialog of the entire series; most of those lines going to Carole. "Oh Sunshine, you can't have both."

I think for many fans, the resolution of Lennie James's Morgan on the road arc was the most welcome development, and the opening scene will have die hard core fans doing fist pumps; and the final scene feels like we have come full circle from the series pilot.

The last scene of the show very neatly resolves the issue of Rick and the group's position in Alexandria and with Deana's command to Rick to "Do it," sets things up for an explosive Season 6. Remember the Wolves ain't afraid; and sooner of later, Negan is going to get there.

This is not just a season finale but it is the best episode of the walking dead, in my own opinion at least. Fantastic set pieces from start to finish, not a single plot contrivance and there was a sense of dread as well as closure that I'm sure is going to amaze the viewer while watching this epic finale. For the first time in a while, it truly seems the writers know what they are doing.

There's definitely a lot going on in this episode. The characters had a lot to conquer and not a single character thread is wasted. Nice re- introduction to Morgan. A most welcome ally and where did he learn to fight like that? Lennie James was a delight to watch.

The directing was nicely done. Writing was fantastic and forced dialog which we have come to associate with the walking dead is hopefully a thing of the past if this episode is anything to go by. In a nuanced fashion, a lot of the cast stepped up their acting in this episode. Melissa Mcbride is becoming more menacing by the day as her character Carol is far cry from who we knew in seasons 1 and 2. Andrew Lincoln owned the episode and shone delightfully. Steven Yeun once again was in top form. I'd even like to make special mention to Seth Gilliam, though Father Gabriel is most presumably everyone's least favorite character right now (Wolf in sheep's....)

The Letter W, and what's its significance, stood out in episodes prior. Without giving much away I'd like to state that a new threat lies outside of Alexandria as well as inside. Moment of truth at the end of the episode and in reference to our letter W is while dealing with a threat of Wolves outside as well as Wolves in sheep's clothing inside, you either chose to be just a Lamb or rise and rise again until Lambs become Lions.

This is brilliant rendering of episodic TV. 10/10

WOW. Gimple deserves a medal. He just eradicated any doubts in my mind. Gimple is the future of the show, he is the best show runner, and he's taking this show to new heights. If you look back at the season as a whole, you realize every single episode was worth the watch and weaved the story together to this ultimate finale. This was almost Breaking Bad level writing. I applaud you Gimple. The plot easily gets a 10/10. The acting was superb as always. Andrew Lincoln should be showered in rewards after this episode. Damn fine acting. Sonequa Martin-Green was perfect, and Seth Gilliam nailed the suicidal Gabriel perfectly. Everyone was on their a game. Easily a 10/10. The dialogue was very good, and as always, the Rick speeches carry out the overall message of the season to a great note. The dialogue jumped right out of the page perfectly. 10/10. The characters go through so many progressions. Comparing Carol now to old Carol is CRAZY. Rick is developing every single minute of the episode, and all the character's arches and what they've been going through has payed off, adding to the quality of the episode. 10/10. The score, for once, gets a 5/5. It was very effective here, and really set the mood. Morgan's theme is still one of the best the show has seen, and I'm glad Bear McReary is improving with each season. I'm not going to even talk about the effects, since it's an easy 5/5. The adaption of the comics was on point as always. Adapting the source material very well while adding layers that make the overall plot even better than it was in the comics. I'm serious. This was done better than in the comics. 5/5. The significance of this episode was astounding. Every character has come out a little bit changed in a way. It's the turning point for Alexandria. New story lines are in the horizon that I can't wait for all because of this episode and the actions that Rick and everyone has done for survival. 5/5 It was extremely effective, doing everything that needed to be done, and then some. 5/5. Cinematography was great. Everything flowed and looked nice. Another easy 5/5. This episode was entertaining as f*ck. Not one dull moment, and it makes you forget episodes like Still ever even happened. Great entertainment. 10/10. Editing: the editing was effective here, and it was really nice for conveying the story, and it never hindered the episode and only improved it. 5/5. This is gonna be the episode I re-watch this season. Simply put, a timeless episode. 5/5. And with that I conclude by saying, this is the first episode of The Walking Dead i'm proud to say was perfect on every single level of a TV episode. 100/100, 100%, whatever, it's a perfect episode I will remember for years to come.

For me this might be the best episode The Walking Dead has done.

This episode contained some of the darkest scenes in The Walking Dead yet, as well as some very powerful acting, most notably from Andrew Lincoln and Steven Yeun.

Whilst watching this episode, I couldn't help but notice that it felt very much like an episode of Breaking Bad, with it's intense, powerfully acted scenes backed up by a great choice of background music.

Full of twists and turns, this episode was an absolute masterpiece. Not to mention a great cliffhanger.

Next season can't come soon enough.

This is the sixteenth and final episode of what some would say the best episode in the series. I would happen to agree with that sentiment. There are many things to love about this final episode whether it's the 90-minute running time, the crazy ending, the use of Lennie James as Morgan, the action, or finding out what "W" stands for. No matter what, this episode ended Season Five on a high note and I am eager for Season Six.

In this episode, "Conquer," Deanna calls a town meeting to discuss what to do about Rich because of his previous actions. Glenn confronts Nicholas in order to combat Nick's cowardice. Daryl and Aaron discover an old friend fifty miles away from Alexandria, as they learn what "W" could stand for.

Overall, this is just a fantastic episode that has a little bit of everything and a chance for each character to shine. I do not want to wait six months, but it looks like I may have to in order to see the sixth season. I can't wait!

My Grade: A+

Morgan Jones is having a meal at a bonfire when two strangers attack him; however he defeats them. Meanwhile Daryl and Aaron drive fifty miles far from Alexandria seeking for supplies. They arrive at a huge store and discover that someone left a trap using dozens of walkers and they seek protection in an old car. When they are hopeless under siege, Morgan Jones helps to rescue them. Deanna summons the inhabitants of Alexandria to judge Rick and his friends give testimonies about his leadership and good heart. Sasha is deranged burying walkers. Gabriel is also insane and lets the gate opened and Rick has to fight alone against walkers. When Rick arrives to the trial, Pete causes a tragedy in the meeting. Nicholas tries to kill Glenn in the woods.

"Conquer" is among the best episodes of "The Walking Dead". The dangerous group that is carving the "W" on the forehead of walkers is disclosed. Morgan Jones is back, now skilled with the use of a bar for self-defense. Deanna finally understands that Rick is right after a tragedy in the meeting. Glenn should have killed the coward Nicholas, but help him to return to Alexandria. But the greatest surprise is the running time of this episode, the best gift that the producers could have given to any fan. Thank you very much. My vote is ten.

Title (Brazil): "Conquer"

Note: On 21 April 2016, I saw this show again.

This was a pretty good episode but still pretty disappointing, especially for a 90 minute finale. I agree with the other reviewer who also doesn't understand all the hype behind this episode. There has been a lot of build up this season to what seemed was going to be a huge event. Yet, the huge climax was Rick finally shooting Pete. Yeah I am sure no one saw that coming. Glenn's storyline this episode literally ends up nowhere. He risks his life to end up saving a guy he hates. Where was Nicholas going? Did he know Glenn was going to follow? Why didn't Glenn just let him go get himself killed? Sasha and Gabriel's story lines also end up nowhere. The only reason their scenes seem "intense" is because they cut off at the perfect moment for commercial break. The only things that were really important in this episode were Morgan returning and Deanna finally waking up. The wolves should have played a big role by now. You'll see what I mean in future. I have been a huge Walking Dead fan since season 1. In fact it was the first drama series I followed. But it seems the show runners really are just ruining it. They definitely prefer Quantity over Quality. Don't get me wrong some episodes are amazing. But they may just seem more amazing because the 3 episodes before it sucked. The cast, cinematography and music is awesome. The material they have to make the story is great. People who have read comics know. But, THEY ARE TRYING TO EXTEND THE SHOW LONGER THAN THEY HAVE TO! I think people who think every episode is amazing probably only follow this one show. Honestly, I completely understand where they're coming from. I used to think same thing. But there are other shows out there that have everything good about TWD, better consistency, waaaay better writing and directing. TWD is great but has potential to be better. I'm afraid they're turning this show too commercial; trying to appeal to its growing female audience more with its unnecessary cheesy moments. AMC wants this show to stay on as long as possible (obviously) and frankly does not give a fu** about filler episodes. TWD becoming most watched show in America is the best and worse thing that ever happened to it.

P.S. To those of you daring enough and who haven't yet, you should check out Game of Thrones, Spartacus, Boardwalk Empire, Peaky Blinders, The Wire and of course Breaking Bad.

This episode is mind blowing, every bit of it just as crazier as the next. Please watch if you haven't started on it, this episode is good enough to blow your mind away.

If you are looking for spoilers, please google.

I would rather not know and leave it to the writers to surprise me. I cannot wait for the next episode. Do not look for spoilers. Just watch.

Every character is just as bad as before, as in good to be bad kind of feeling. Priest is pissing you off to the brim though, just feel like exploding each time he talks, flying retarded and delusional.

Carol is ultimately the best character here, sneaky and a crazy liar that does not disappoint the Rick's team.

Hurry season 6. Keep it up AMC & The Walking Dead

ps. Morgan defence skill is like the next Bruce Lee

This is my first ever review and i'm quite excited to do so for a great show! Firstly, what a great episode! This was a very different finale to the previous ones we have seen, yet was just as tense throughout. There was enough story, character building, gore, and a death! The positives...

Bringing Morgan back was a great move as it gets fans excited from the off (I was jumping up and down!) - speaking of which, he was practically just as much a bada55 as Daryl tends to be!

The plot threads between the different characters was also great and only really possible by extending the normal running time, as now it really feels like an ensemble cast, meaning not everyone can be on screen for each episode. The main plot from this Alexandria arc is how these people choose to live and this is the stems from the difference of opinions between Rick and Deanna. Rick has his "agressive" ways, yet Deanna does not and wants to build a new civilisation/government/world (she clearly hasn't spent much time outside like our survivors have!).

There were some fantastic parallels between the story lines...Glenn chooses (again!) not to kill Nicholas and same with Sasha (with the help of Maggie) for the guilt-ridden Gabriel, yet in the end, Deanna gave in to that belief/hope/morality (albeit in an emotional state) and gave the order "Do it!", which was enough for Rick. It's this "greyness" that makes this watching these characters so compelling. An example of this is Carol's transformation from the first season timid/beaten wife/mother to virtually a master manipulator psychopath has been sensational! I have actually found her so difficult to read now - does she want a happy life with the Alexandria residents or has she gone even further than Rick, in not knowing how to live in a peaceful way. In a weird way, she seems like she is enjoying herself in this new world...

Negatives...a bit of a shame on teasing the "Wolves" even in the finale (since they gave us these "W" hints in past episodes) but I guess the anticipation should help with the build-up for next season. It's also quite difficult to care for minor characters, such as Reg, who seemed like he could have grown into a good character. Though his demise felt more appropriate for the: 1) shock factor (which we always love!) and 2) to nail Rick's point: would Reg have been alive if Deanna had listened to Rick earlier and kicked out (or killed) Pete?

Finally, have to end this on who else, but Rick. I keep telling my wife, he has turned into a "nicer version of Shane". Rick is Shane - he fully believes that in order to live in this "new world" you have to change your morality and essentially what you believe to be right and wrong. I still remember the scene where the Governor held a sword to Hershel's head and desperate plea Rick was making to him to spare him.I believe Rick genuinely was speaking the truth and that he was willing to try to live together without the violence/bloodshed...the consequences of that, I believe, have changed him for good (despite however much Michonne/Carl/Glenn try to help). The interesting thing is, his group (minus Father Gabriel obviously), believe in him and agree with him. Will Morgan? Will my wife? Cannot wait for Season 6!

I never wrote a review in IMDb and i thing this is the right moment to do it.As this episode was twice long i relaxed and hoping this episode would be (as all the mid-season and season finals)exciting.And yes..this episode has the right cinematography and right script to make you stop breathing for moments.I was very curious about this ''W'' and i think we will have a good story with this ''team of psychos'' in season 6.I cant wait to see Morgan and Rick in next season as the end of this last episode tell us that something is gonna happen.Last we saw great character development.That's what i love about this series.That the pain and suffering that all the characters have been through we can see it in their faces and in their choices that they make.Season 6 is on the way and i cant wait!

A really Amazing 90 minutes finale .. solves every bit of the season ,, A dramatic appearance for "Morgan" who appeared only on the beginning of the season.

The scene of the fight between Glenn and that other dude is sensational and the end of their scene is so unpredictable.

and back to Rick ,,, man his scene in the episode before this when he was fighting that guy who was beating his wife was just breathtaking ,, bravo "Andrew Lincoln" but also the scene this episode killing the "walkers" beside the wall was wow.

My gosh this episode was so fine ,,, i believe it's the best rated finale for a reason ,, which it was so satisfactory, solves everything you wondered about along the season and in the same time leaves you longing for what's gonna happen next.

"The wolves are not far" ,,, fingers crossed the next season is gonna keep up the action and the surprises ;)

A lot happens in this episode, but it won't satisfy you.

They're showing the audience what the audience wants to see. We've already seen the protagonist covered in blood giving speeches and suicidal people with baggage thoughts and psychos who capture walkers and kill or eat people .

My question to the writers is simple Are they even attempting to progress or are they just focussing on the dynamics of the characters? Because the latter won't add any quality to the show.

I bet that who ever is reading this can summarise last three seasons in less than 4 statements.

Nonetheless , this episode is much better than the previous in terms of pacing and giving all the characters some screen time. This technique is much better that dealing with two or three characters in an episode or probably they did it because it's a finale ?

My rating 7.7/10

Edit - To all who are hating my review, think about this

The zombies that are so rotten that a swing of an iron chain can behead three of them at once (indicating they're fragile and light in weight) but out beloved characters can't even push one beside , when one of them is on top of them .

Is this a horror / drama or a ridiculous comedy show ?

"People are the real threat now". - Rick

The Walking Dead as a show itself as been like a mix relationship for me, because we will have one great episode and then a terrible and boring one that I had to ask why? Season 4 was the season of Filler, I'm not kidding you nothing happened in that season beside the Governor attacking Ricks group, the writing was all so messy in season 4 and I was very shade about season 5 and what can the writers do to win me over again, well let me tell you something about Season 5 of The Walking Dead and that is it's ten times better than Season 4.

I felt that season 5 had a lot of things moving and there wasn't much of filler episodes in this season which I'm so happy about because filler episodes are the most forgettable ones, it's a true fact. I also thought the writing has improved a lot with the dialogue that doesn't feel boringly thought out by the writers that only want to go home for the day.

The character arks are another thing that's improved in this season because you can see the group slowly melting away into full crazy by this world that they living in and how it's eating their minds away. But in the other seasons you never got that, you know what we got, pointless talk to talk between the characters talking about something that really isn't all that important and then the episode ends. Some people call that character development well I call it lazy writing and how is it character development when two characters stare at each other telling each other that they hungry and how their feeling, really.

I got to give credit to Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes as he gives a great performance as the furiously cold Rick. Andrew is the only reason I watch The Walking Dead because these something about Rick as a character that always keeps me watching. The rest of the cast did great as well.

I'm looking forward to Season 6 to see what's next and what else the show brings even if it is part awesomeness or upsetting.

Yawn at the drudgery, anybody watching can always see any supposed twists a mile off. Just like when learning how to read, Peter kills zombies, Jane helps Peter escape, Peter and Jane are zombie survivors.

The only people dying are those that nobody gave any hoot about. Being already programmed into not caring, mostly from already taking a dislike to them from the get go. These are often playing their parts with warning labels that read, better off dead Fred. Excluding the big over dramatised send off, when singing kumbaya mmmhh kumbaya, when somebody else dies from the campfire circle. Mostly from being so super entirely lame.

Was there any surprise to the anti climatic ending, none whatsoever, it was boring.

Oh! Now we get the Book of Eli walking about, writing the next series.

The I zombie, you is a zombie, theme, become a zombie too escape dem zombies, when sleeping with zombies. Watched absolutely ridiculously.

Anyhow those two wolf cubs make a pack, argues, Rome wasn't built in a day. No, surely not like that.

Meanwhile any heroes are as always bulletproof, they get in a jam and just like magic, they have escaped. How did Glenn escape, magically of course, now you see a zombie, now you don't.

This show watches badly. As badly as only those who are bitten will turn. Zombie saliva, zombie guts, zombie blood, can be drunk a plenty, with whatever other zombiecoolaid is in the refrigerator without becoming a zombie. Heck don't wash your hands of those zombies feces, because they taste like chicken.

AMC's The Walking Dead finished Season 5 with a ninety minute episode that used its final half-hour to build up an incredible amount of tension, which was then released. And for a brief moment, I actually believed the season was going to end on a sigh of relief and a note of hope.

Plot In A Paragraph: The People of Alxendria have a meeting to decide what to do about Rick. Glenn once again goes up against Nicholas and Daryl and Aaron come across a familiar face.

It was an OK end to a lacklustre season!! After a good opening it rapidly went down hill. Gareth and the gang from Terminus stalking the group was over before it had began. That and the escape from Terminus had the potential to be the full first half of the season, if not the full season (with the season ending with them arriving at Alxendria and Rick hearing the children laughing.) The ending was good and Im interested in seeing Morgan's reaction to Rick killing someone like that.

I think if Rick had have been in Glenn and Sasha's shoes two more douche's would have been killed and it would have been a more satisfying finale.

Finally we had a chance to see a good episode. Darly and Aaron killed all the zombies on the fence but I still don't understand why are they so careless (Daryl) after spending so much time "outside", OK I could expect it from people from Alexandria (Aaron) but not him (Daryl). Also when Morgan saved them why didn't they killed all zombies from the fence? The always let zombies live like it doesn't matter... That is pure bullshit. Anyway, what bothers me so much in this show is they newer tried to secure the perimeter around the prison, Alexandria with additional fences, double gates and triggers, neither they did some cleaning which should be logical but naaah, it's OK let them come...

Last few seasons I'm just pressing skip forward...

In reading the reviews so far, it seems I may be in the minority. I thought the episode was decent, but lacked that unexpected ending we are all accustomed to. It's not hard to predict that Rick and Jessie would eventually hook up...so killing her husband is not that shocking. Then again, did he really kill him? I'm guessing no...Also, nobody was going to kick Rick out and that whole meeting thing was just to set up that final scene. What was brilliant about this episode was bringing Morgan back. Looking forward to seeing what role he plays next season. I also liked the fact that this episode concentrated on the development of the main characters and how they really do care about each other. However, I think what would have put this episode over the top is the killing off a major character. They teased us throughout the episode, but fell short at the end.

Six stars for series 1 to 6 which were brilliant, then TWD went downhill right from the start of series 7
