8/10
I'm gonna go get him some flowers and candy

Rick, Herschel and Glen deal with the aftermath of the shootout.

This is a strong episode that once more highlights humanity back to its primal state and contains suspenseful action and horror scenes.

The immediate focus is on the aftermath of the two major incidents in the previous episode, none of which I will spoil. Both these scenes are excellently made from a visual perspective, delivering plenty of thrills and horror.

The general theme running through many scenes and dialogue is the self-serving nature of humanity and the characters contrast with each other at numerous points. Many are placed in extreme situations and react in their own ways to ensure their own survival and in some cases others.

Some of the character development that happens at the farm shows people resorting to their base survival instincts. Typical causes of conflict and the motivations of people when committing acts violence upon each other are on display. In particular, characters looking to influence others to commit acts of violence in the name of protection and survival is well portrayed.

All performances are excellent and the production values are great.
