Featured review
When time and hardship change you forever.
One of the strongest episodes in the series so far and one of the best episodes overall. It messes with people's fond memories of character Morgan, the first guy Rick encounters after he leaves the hospital in the beginning of the series, and also the first person to actually help Rick out. This time around, the time spent on the run trying to survive has taken its toll on Morgan and the episode makes sure to let that stick deep.
It starts with Rick, his son and Michonne going out to loot for guns and ammunition preparing for a final stand against the better armed Governor. They find the police station completely emptied and drop by a few places where some stray guns might be hidden because Rick used to know the neighborhood. When they try crossing a small hold against attackers, they stumble upon a guy -- he gets shot, but was wearing body-armor. This guy happens to be Morgan.
Michonne and Rick's son go out on their own little quest which finally gets Michonne significant screen time and depth, when Carl attempts to get probably the last photo of his mother in existence, thinking that it would be the last chance for his new sister to ever have the picture of her mom and actually see her face. This gets secondary attention.
The real deal lies in the now mentally unstable Morgan. He has lost his own son victim of a decision he himself made in the first few episodes, when he couldn't kill his own wife, even after she became a walker. It turns out that his son couldn't as well, which let to his demise. The Walking Dead has its fair share of decision-making that carry out to episodes to come, but this one really takes the cake, since its results can only be seen seasons after taking place.
Rick always carried lots of emotion when it comes to acting, but this time he finds a man as on the edge as he is, led to near completely losing his mind and surely on his way to it. Both, Rick and Morgan, are completely different people than they were in the beginning, the impeccable acting from both leave no doubt. Rick even tries to convince him of joining his group, though the comeback made by Morgan makes much more sense than anyone, even Rick, would be willing to admit. If he's so much better in a prison where no dead can reach them, why the need of so many guns. In the end, it doesn't really matter what kills you, bullet or teeth, it's all the same.
When heading for the destination at the beginning of the episode, Rick and the group passed by a stray guy on the road, they do not make any attempt to help him even with his constant cries for help, seen twice for even more morbid results. When they leave and drive back, the remains of his body are all scattered over the road and his backpack up for grabs -- they do exactly that. This scenario pictures the change. Once, people were willing to help each other out, Morgan was, Rick was. Now, only the shadowy glimpse of the men Rick and Moran once were remain. Rick picked up the backpack. Utilitarianism at its fullest.
