  • Carol is REALLY into #Zombies and #Westerns, so a Zombie Western episode...
  • The season arc finally kicked into gear, now with an actual big-bad!
    • and - Ginnie - that bitch is a bitch. Comparisons to Alpha, Simon & #TheSaviors
    • and, speaking of #FTWDSettlers, they are MASSIVE, in number and settlement.
    • could be a splinter of #TheCommonwealth
    • Ginnie is scary; now we know where Logan got all the ammo; MAYBE GINNIE IS #MadisonClark!
  • Logan's beautiful origin story and the parallels betwen his past and the present
  • Connecting #AliciaClark & #VictorStrand / #ColmanDomingo's running back to the 5B trailer
    • and boy, oh boy, it took them a lot longer than Logan!
  • Wes doing the right thing. Still think he's "not Wes"
    • and the girl he saves was obviously with Girl #ColbyMinifie.
    • #ColbyHollman "Uncle Colby"
  • Our last clip was, apparently, #ChildBullying...
  • Continuing to showcase the people they helped, a la #RabbiJacobKessner & #FTWDTess
  • We're actually sad that Logan / #MattFrewer is gone.
    • and this was #SarahRabinowitz's episode: finally admits she killed Clayton/Polar Bear.
    • which is why we thought she might go... and we were convinced the girl Wes saved was going to, as well
    • and #LucianaGalvez, too, but instead, she gets her #JessePinkman moment. #BreakingBad
  • @Eye_in_the_dark2, "Maybe Logan dying means that he was right all along."
    • Dave's ordeal about helping people: It really is not easy. Know when to walk away.
  • Definitely got the action-packed, meaningful episode we've been waiting for
    • the Wilhelm Scream [clip] and Logan's last, intense emotional dialogue
  • The Settlers: definitely don't embrace #Negan's "People are a resource"
    • comedians as bad-guys. #JimCarrey #TheMask #LiarLiar #AceVentura #DumbAndDumber #CableGuy #TheNumber23 #RobinWilliams #HughLaurie #HouseMD #FryeAndLaurie
  • It's rainin guts, Dwight! ...forget the gas!

    • #FTWDGrace & #DanielSalazar out of gas, too, but #Walkers arrive ...and want to see Daniel and #FTWDCharlie's relationship grow
    • "But if You Try Sometimes, you might find, you get what you need"

David Cameo:
Chris Valerius (BMNY DeadCast):
Meg The Geek (Dendy):
Rachael Burt:

  • Chris: It's just a re-touched, redeemed #FatherGabriel origin story
    • but Rabbi Kessner and he couldn't be more different
    • 75% of SQUAWKING DEAD thinks Gabriel is still a sneaky f*ck
    • #TWDseason10 obviously angling for the #ThreeMenAndABaby situation with #Siddiq, #EugenePorter, and Gabie (sorry #RositaEspinosa)
    • "Babies are nothing but a buncha nuissance!" "Eat the baby"
  • Peoples' minds were changed about Charlie, via Fath-- Rabbi Kessner

  • There's no sex in the #ZombieApocalypse... right?
    • kill/eat all the kids (except #JudithGrimes)?
    • now we're killing everyone? #KingEzekiel
    • pleasure in discomfort and #MaggieRhee's return
  • Logan's plan might go up in flames
    • but he sure knows a lot about things he shouldn't...
  • Tzadikim Nistarim: 36 Hidden (Righteous People)
  • Naaseh V'Nishmah: Do, then listen.
  • The Rabbi's & Dwight's solitude are similar
  • S/He and #NaomiLauraJune's & Charlie's struggle for meaning/faith
  • Specific character pairs have the answers the other is looking for
    • they just need #Madonna a Minyan to figure it out
  • John Dorie's funny hat and, do me a fayvah, just ask questions
  • Rollie still sucks, but maybe?
  • #SneakPeeks:
    • Logan finds Tank Town
    • Sarah & Dwight jump Dwight's Asshole

  • "Home Sweet Home" with Lady #AbrahamFord
    • parallels, because archetypes, and the measure of representation
    • authenticity and what the world becomes: Father/Rabbi watching humans turn into demons
