Be warned! This review will cover aspects of the episode. Spoilers will lurk like groaning cover’budge ers…###Well, that was… underwhelming. After last week's tension-filled exploration of how Samantha Morton's Alpha came to be the bald-headed psychopath she is in the present world of The Walking Dead, this week's standoff between her Whisperers and the Hilltop gang largely had all the dramatic propel of a slowly deflating balloon. People stood around and talked, Henry decided to flee with Lydia, then the young woman saw sense and decided to return to her mother, violence and all.###All the air seemed to be sucked out of the encounter, save in/with regard to’concerning’regarding one or two solid segments, one of which was Lauren Ridloff's Connie rescuing the infant that Alpha had decided could be left in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the dead because it wouldn't stop crying. The sequence of her in the field with the dead, shot to bring you into the world as she undergo s it worked well, despite’in spite of’albeit any real danger was itself defeated by Darryl and the others arriving to her rescue.###This week's main storyline also brought us right back to the sheer hormonal moron attitude from Henry, even if he despite’in spite of’albeit t he was doing the right thing, putting eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfullyone in peril yet again. As in/with regard to’concerning’regarding him deciding to run off at the end? Daryl and Connie might be headed to look in/with regard to’concerning’regarding him, but if we're honest, we'd leave him out there if he's going to cause this much trouble in future. Maybe he can just be a thorn in Alpha's side in/with regard to’concerning’regarding a while. Doubt she'll be quite as in/with regard to’concerning’regarding giving, despite’in spite of’albeit …###A rare win in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the communities is no wicked’dreadful’undesirable’adverse’vile thing, it's just disappointing that it had to come in an episode that lacked much in the way of substance. That could also stand in/with regard to’concerning’regarding this week's B-plot, which jumped in time (anyone else thunderstruck’startled’stupefied to see Jesus reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue up at the start?) and mostly focused on King Ezekiel, Carol and Jerry (who possess’own’nurse been largely absent the last couple of weeks) leading a band of Kingdom warriors to hunt down Elk. But the King also had a sub-mission in mind, heading to a cinema to retrieve a projector bulb.###For all its emotional token ificance (and yes, the chance in/with regard to’concerning’regarding another win), the story felt like one that could've been told in with regards to’concerning’with respect to two minutes, skipping as it did over much in the way of action or dramatic weight. Sure, the place was swarming with the undead, but eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfullything went off without a major hitch, unless you count Jerry dropping the bulb (Oh, Jerry), which as it turns out, was also fine.###Hardly a classic episode, then, even if the commitment to actual joy here and there in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the characters was a welcome one. We don't hold out too much hope in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the communities properly reuniting, but perhaps the Whisperers will spur something now we know they're out there. They can keep Henry.###Highlight: The Mission Mix.###Lowlight: Any scene with Teen Angster Henry.###Kill of the week: Throat-stab zombie.###Quote of the week: "Natural selection" – Alpha's cold reasoning in/with regard to’concerning’regarding abandoning the baby.###Zombie of the week: Popcorn!###MVP: Jerry, even if he is a clumsy nincompoop.###The enormous’vast’massive’tremendous question: Will the fair become a giant bloodbath? We possess’own’nurse concerns.###Read this season's reviews###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 1: *A New Beginning###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 2: *The Bridge###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 3: *Warning Signs###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 4: *The Obliged###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 5: *What Comes After###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 6: *Who Are You Now?###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 7: *Stradivarius###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 8: *Evolution###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 9: *Adaptation###The Walking Dead* Season 9, Episode 10: *Omega###Read last season's reviews below…###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 1: *Mercy###The Walking Dead Season 8, Episode 2: The Damned###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 3: *Monsters###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 9: *Honor###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 10: *The Lost And The Plunderers###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 11: *Dead Or Alive Or###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 12: *The Key###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 13: *Do Not Send Us Astray###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 14: *Still Gotta Mean Something###The Walking Dead* Season 8, Episode 15: *Worth###The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9pm on AMC in the States and Mondays at 9pm on Fox.
