Season 8 of The Walking Dead opened with a bang; Rick’s triumphant assault on the Sanctuary certainly made us believe that our heroes were starting off on the right foot.

Episode 3 featured several morality plays, especially in regards to how Rick deals with the Saviors — last week, he inadvertently killed the father of a baby girl, and this week, Morales challenged him to recognize how similar they were — both men defined by their circumstances, but no better or worse than each other, just because one of them happened to be holding a gun. Rick was trying to get through to Morales when Daryl snuck up and shot him from behind, something that seemed to shake our fearless leader — and later we saw Daryl go back on Rick’s word and kill another Savior after Rick had promised him mercy.  Read more…
