Yeah, the episode was great in the sense of not holding our hand. My favorite scene, though very subtle, was Rick offering his bitch wife some chow - and she refused at first, only to learn that he wasn't giving an option. It was a quick character beat that I loved. Rick is through negotiating with people, it's go time. If the series can carry that on until the mid-season break, it's gonna be awesome.
And then the show remembers what it is, and gave us some gnarly walker kills. They may take a back seat to human villains this season but they're still out there waiting to get put down.
And in case anybody didn't know, the Walking Dead game is amazing. Get it. It does the brand justice.
