I really enjoyed this episode but it does leave you with a few questions and as there are 4 episodes left in this season then I guess that is a good thing.
The highlight of the episode was the attack on the Saviours base. Stealthily at first. This led to the first major moment when Rick and Glenn were cold-bloodedly stabbing the Saviours in the head as they slept. This wasn't kill or be killed in the middle of battle, this was something else and was so visceral it turned by stomach.
Our group seemingly killed everyone and was preparing to leave and then we suddenly find out, via walkie talkie, that all the Saviours aren't dead and they have captured Maggie and Carol.
So? This leads to two main questions. Where were all the other Saviours hiding and how did they manage to get from that hiding place to the outside, capture Maggie and Carol, and get hidden again? I can only assume there must be some sort of underground section to the base, which is very well hidden, as surely Rick and our group would have found it when they cleared the place out.
This leads to one final question. Is this where Negan is at? Or do the Saviours have other hideouts? This brings me onto a major gripe. Not with the show but people that review the show on IMDb. Too many people are prone to giving away too much in their reviews. Obviously with inside knowledge from the comics. They subtlety suggest stuff like this can't be where Negan is at as it looks nothing like what it does in the comics. Plus when Glenn was nearly eaten by walkers earlier in the season suggesting that isn't how it happened in the comics (if he dies or not).
I like to read the reviews on IMDb after watching a really good episode to see what other people think. However, too many people are leaving spoilers for upcoming plot lines and it is ****ing me off.
