Be warned! This review will cover aspects of the episode. Spoilers will lurk like groaning cover’budge ers…###There is a lot of the reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue 's two most conflicted moral compasses being tested this episode: both Morgan and Carol face challenges that appear to set them on a new path. Carol's is relatively simple, set in motion by Morgan's undergo s in the main plot: he ends up telling her the whole truth with regards to’concerning’with respect to what Negan has done to the Alexandrians and she decides that she'll possess’own’nurse to leave her less-than-splendid isolation and fight. Once more, this is the reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue moving the pieces into place with less than subtle shoving motions, but at least the emotional journeys are taken by two of the more capable characters (and actors) on the reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue .###The primary story, meanwhile, which takes place among the Kingdom dwellers, is one of pain, tragedy and regret. Finally deciding that something has to happen to in/with regard to’concerning’regarding ce King Ezekiel to take up arms against the Saviours, Richard ((Karl Makinen) decides to sabotage the latest supply drop to the sneering villains, who are such sticklers in/with regard to’concerning’regarding keeping to approve’ consent’endorse’applaud ments that they're willing to deliver rough justice in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the sake of one lousy cantaloupe. This is why no one likes, you Saviours. Well, that and the killing and enslaving individual . It also explains that first scene of Ezekiel and the other Kingdomers (still not sure we want to call them that) placing one cantaloupe on the truck like the world's least efficient Tesco deliintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfully. We were definitely in more familiar territory after last week's relatively light episode.###And in contrast to last week's brief, unsuccessful attempt to reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue the cover’budge ers as a danger again, we're back to reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue standard, as Carol randomly (albeit entertainingly) stabs, slices and impales them on her way from the cottage to the Kingdom. No, the enormous’vast’massive’tremendous threat remains the Saviours, represented mostly here by Gavin and Jared, sort of the Dumb and Dumber of the group.###They're still the least compelling part of any episode, mostly providing the danger and the occasional snatch of snark.###The death of Benjamin is at least handled relatively well, all shock and confusion and the Kingdomers struggling to acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure him to Carol's as he slowly bleeds out. It's an effective little sequence, and has some impact even if we saw it coming a mile away (see below).###Can you say metaphors? The Walking Dead was loaded with them this week, and even the usually sure hand of reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue runner Scott M. Gimple on script duty couldn't quite save the episode from seeming heavy-handed. There is talk of how injuring the enemy injures yourself right out of The Art Of War, and Ezekiel's garden has to be torn out to destroy an infestation? That's the enormous’vast’massive’tremendous gest one sat right there. There are also some dead – pun entirely intended – giveaways that someone is going to die early in the episode, when we possess’own’nurse more chatter between Richard and Morgan, and especially young Henry (Macsen Lintz) and Benjamin (Logan Miller) enjoying more screen time than they possess’own’nurse in ages. It's never a rosy’remarkable’fabulous’terrific’preeminent token on this reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue , which adheres to the conventions of war movie death in/with regard to’concerning’regarding eshadowing as outlined in this Punt & Dennis sketch{:rel=nofollow}. Richard acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure ting more to say wasn't too shocking given his scenes with Daryl a few episodes ago (and once he got to deliver his tearful backstory speech, you could guess he might not be long in/with regard to’concerning’regarding this world), but Benjamin gifting Morgan and painting and coyly mentioning some girl he knows? Dead. And thus it came to pass when Richard's scheme wicked’dreadful’undesirable’adverse’vile ly backfired.###At least this week had the benefit of interesting visuals, with the shopping trolley arrow leading to the grave (despite’in spite of’albeit one does wonder when Richard had the chance to set it all up). And all credit to Lennie James, who has done sterling work as Morgan bein/with regard to’concerning’regarding e and stepped up once again to truly reveal’illustrate’demonstrate’indicate’present’display’argue his agony at the unnecessary death of Benjamin. He can do more with a glare than many of the others can with a monologue.###He killed Richard, so Captain Pacifism's classic stance is well and truly over. And the last we see of Morgan is him sharpening his fighting stick so…###Indeed! That was a nice callback to Morgan's own departed son, played by Adrian Kali Turner.###The shortest, in fact, of the series to date. Perhaps they'll try to top it with a blipvert down the line.###Read this season's previous reviews below…###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 1: *The Day Will Come When You Won't Be###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 2: *The Well###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 3: *The Cell###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 4: *Service###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 5: *Go Getters###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 6: *Swear###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 7: *Sing Me A Song###The Walking Dead Season 7, Episode 8: Hearts Still Beating###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 9: *Rock In The Road###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 10: *New Best Friends###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 11: *Hostiles And Calamities###The Walking Dead* Season 7, Episode 12: *Say Yes###The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9pm on AMC in the States and Mondays at 9pm on Fox.
