The Rotten Core

Definitely a better episode in the past few weeks but still not at the top, it seems to have a good balance of action and talking.

The acting in this episode for me was really good and literally everyone seemed to be pi**ed of at someone.

There was a scene that was meant to be suspenseful but because they announced the spin off show it had nothing to it, also kind of a spoiler not really, why at the end another new crazy person, it seems like they are trying to fit so much, every other time this happened after S4 or 5 the show just felt lost so I hope that doesn't happen here Good episode overall.

And Aaron is the man to serve it!

I'm glad Aaron is getting more iconic and badass scenes in this season, even though he was on the screen for a really short time, he still shined. I Always appreciate more Aaron.

I really liked this episode through and through. Every storyline was interesting and the action scenes were good and there was not a bad or unnecessary scene in here.

Justice and karma may have hit really quick, but I don't think they could've settled that issue anywhere else than the building.

Daryl and Rosita's plot was really good with some great zombie action and callbacks to earlier seasons where they have to get from point A to point B and back, through a horde of zombies. The mayor's son is still a douche and I'm really interested to see what his fate is gonna be.

Also I'm really liking Mercer with each episode, he's a real badass and not a complete bootlicker of the Commonwealth government.

Then we have our Plot A, with the people in the building and the psychopath who's murdering them one by one, and lots happen in there too. I really liked the scenes with Negan and and the kid (not gonna spoil it). I like the direction they're taking this "relationship" too, because after all these episodes, it was getting kinda overdone and needed a fresh dynamic. I'm really looking forward to see where they'll take this.

We also have Hornsby that is showing who he really is, and looks like that Carol is about do a little "season 5 Carl" here and I'm looking forward to it.

And then we have a surprise character coming back, and it was really surprising cause I really didn't expect it to be that person. I honestly forgot that person even existed and I was hoping for a more familiar face and someone we haven't seen for a long time, but I guess it had to be that person because it was obvious that the said person was gonna come back eventually.

All in all, it was a really good episode with some conclusions to the story and people it introduced last episode and also introducing new plots and dynamics.

At this point and with this pace, I'm not really sure if they're gonna finish the Commonwealth storyline in this second part of the season, and I really hate that I have to wait till August so I can watch the final part according to IMDb. Although we also thought that the Reapers would be a formidable enemy but they really got rid of them quickly at the end of this season's first part. So who knows, maybe they will conclude Commonwealth in the next two episodes. Either way, I'm really intrigued.

I actually really enjoyed this episode and I thought it had its moments!

This is kinda the moment where our characters starts to realize the dark sides of The Commonwealth and gets a feeling that "enough is enough.. this too far"

We really get some characters that you start to hate and really wanna see gobdown in a grusome or satisfying way!

Another scene that stole the show for me, was the conversation between Neegan and Hershel! Jeffrey Dean Morgan puts up another solid, emotional performance in front of this kid, as he is essentially confronted by a younger version of the man he once killed!

We can say now that TWD is coming back with great episodes and i love the relation between Maggie and negan it's very cool but there's a very great relation between daryl and rosita i think they are a good team.

Leah seems to bee on a broken heart rampage.

Most all of the viewers assumed that she is the mystery character.

But whom does she plans to kill with all those stolen weapons?

Not Daryl, that's for sure. :)
