The reunions... but also the part where Carol blows shit up!
ReplyDeleteDef when Daryl sees Carol with honorable mention to Rick realizing Judith is alive.
ReplyDelete"When Chuck Norris goes to sleep, he looks under his bed for Carol"
ReplyDeleteThat scene happened, right? Or did I just imagine it?
The Morgan scene is after the credits in case anyone is wondering
ReplyDeleteThe reunions and the taking down of Terminus people. Seeing Morgan was great too!
ReplyDeleteCarol and Daryl are reunited.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised you guys didn't include the Carol vs Mary scene. Sooo bad-ass omg
ReplyDeletelove all the reunions, especially Grimes family reunion omg I cried a little :')
ReplyDeleteGonna have to say when Carol starts it off by blasting the gas tank..then setting it off with the rocket..classic bad@ss scene..
ReplyDeleteRick Carl Judith reunion :)
ReplyDeleteThe Daryl/Carol, Tyreese/Sasha, and Rick, Carl, and Judith reunions as well as Morgan Jones showing up in the final moments.
ReplyDeleteI don´t watch the show for any kind of romance, but Daryl and Carol....what a beautiful scene!! Loved it.
ReplyDeleteBut ofcourse all the reunions were great, as was the whole episode.
Many great scenes in this episode, hard to choose :)
ReplyDeleteMorgan?!?! I guess I didn't notice that was him.
ReplyDeleteFantastic and brutal premiere. Slitting those 4 guys throats in the first 6 minutes, that was the most brutal part. How does everyone feel about Rick's decision to kill everyone in Terminus? I guess after we found out what they went through initially I feel somewhat bad for them, but eating people??? Can't condone that. I think the real question though is: Is Rick and his group any better or worse than the people of Terminus? They've both done some pretty bad things.
ReplyDeleteMy sentiments exactly... Carol FTW!
ReplyDeleteThe reunions. I don't ship, but Daryl realizing it was Carol and then running to her was sweet. And I loved Rick seeing Judith.
ReplyDeleteProbably the reunions though the entire episode was amazing really
ReplyDeleteI went w/Carol and Daryl being reunited. That scene was super sweet.
ReplyDeleteYou're the butcher or you're the cattle is that scene....
ReplyDeleteThanks! To avoid spoilers i never watch the next ep scenes of any show.
ReplyDeleteHow about that incredible moment when Rick says to Carol,"You did this?" and then embraces her, after banishing her earlier.
ReplyDeleteThe reunions! God! I cryied with Rick and Judith! And yes, I'm a shipper, so, wow! Caryl reunion was.. Awww to me! #InCarolWeTrust
ReplyDeleteThe reunions.... Carol and Daryl, Carol and Rick... so powerful I almost cried and of course when Judith and Rick reunited.. you know he's gonna be a great father to her.
ReplyDeleteI always knew from the very beginning that Carol will be a great character.
ReplyDeleteI mean this woman is extraordinary and I think this is one of the best character's evolution of all times.
Great episode also.
Threese and Sasha reunited.
ReplyDeleteCarol and Mary's fight.
Sam reconized Rick and got killed. So sad... I really liked Sam, but I also think that his death was appropriate to feel the fear against the cannibals.
CAROL was the best about everything. I'm faling in love with her. Was a nice idea to recover the dignity and personality of Carol since she killed that 2 innocent people (Threese's girlfriend and the other guy).
Such a great first episode! :)
I loved, loved, loved the bookended "THEN" scenes at the episode's beginning and end -- BAM, what a chilling, shorthand way to convey how quickly and easily the "good guys" can transition into the "bad guys" in a world like this. Poignant yet also worrisome given what Rick & Co. have gone through.
ReplyDeleteAlso loved the reunions at the end. Morgan is awesome, but so wish they would have left him where we last saw him in "Clear."
Sad to see Sam go too. But the actor has other penguin shoes to fill, so...
ReplyDeleteFor me it was when Rick slaughtered the two guys in the kill room! Pure survival adrenaline kicking in there...
ReplyDeleteCarol and Daryl are reunited.
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't a scene from the next episode, it was after that, and after the credits.
