Following
last week’s shocking episode where Glenn is assumed dead after being devoured
by Walkers, this week we focus on Morgan Jones in the past and how he survived
by burning Walkers and killing people who targeted him. He is captured and
imprisoned in a cell while attempting to steal a goat. Morgan sees life is
possible again through Eastman who is a forensic psychologist. We learn
a psychotic killer Crighton Dallas Wilton murdered Eastman’s wife and
children. He built a cell to hold him so he can watch him starve to death. Eastman teaches Morgan Aikido to redirect his life and accept the past.
Early in the episode Morgan killed someone and that person became a Walker who returns and bites Eastman who was trying to protect Morgan. Later Morgan returns
back to the house and finds a Walker consuming the goat. Upon burying the goat
Morgan discovers that Eastman got closure for the death of his family as Crighton Dallas Wilton is buried in the cemetery. He leaves
after burying Eastman and heads towards Terminus. In the present
Morgan is having the same conversation with a Wolf as Eastman did with him in
the past. However we discover the Wolf is more in line with Crighton Dallas
Wilton than with Morgan.
The episode focuses on the transformation of Morgan and what it takes to hold himself down while the threat of the Wolves is growing. It also indirectly explores what the other characters on show are going through by giving it a name: PTSD. Another great episode which will build up to consequences as one of the Wolves is hidden in the Hen House of Alexandria.
RECOMMENDED – 4 OUT OF 5
