Luckily, at episode's end the stakes become far more personal and therefore more immediately urgent for our main characters. Go to Full Review Brian Moylan Guardian 09/21/2015
Finally someone is giving one of these kids what they deserve. Go to Full Review Jonathon Dornbush Entertainment Weekly 09/21/2015
The episode isn't interested in showing the threat of walkers like "The Dog" was. Instead, it's focusing on the danger of a society trying to hold itself together with used duct tape, a few faulty staples, and sheer will. Go to Full Review Randy Dankievitch TV Over Mind 03/06/2020

It's a shame that after building momentum well throughout the opening three installments, the story loses steam in the fourth. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
