This episode doesn't feature Rick or Michonne, but focuses on one of the lesser characters, Morgan. I feel bad for being a fan and yet not being able to recognize the names of the multitudes of characters they have. Well, I've forgotten a lot of pokemon too. Morgan is the priest and I really have enjoyed his character bringing religion into the story. This is a world where zombies are real, but it's not one where God has been proved to be real. It's more realistic like that even if it still technically has supernatural stuff. I really love the way the episode is set up.
It starts with a shot and nearly ends with the same shot, telling us exactly what happened. Morgan is going crazy as he struggles with whether or not he should be killing people or even walkers. When confronted by the Saviors, things go badly and in the end, he does directly kill one. It's nice to know how Carol is part of the story too. Again, I feel bad for not knowing the names of the characters who have died. Well, it would be too late to learn now. I admit it does kind of seem like filler with the absence of Rick, but with a show that has this many characters, having episodes like this works so well. ***1/2
