Critics Consensus: An emotionally lacerating installment of The Walking Dead provides crucial backstory for the series' new status quo with a flashback structure that culminates in a shocking set-piece that will leave even the most hard-bitten fans shaken.

After a relatively solid string of episodes, "Scars" is Season 9's first big stinker, a nasty piece of work that doesn't even have the courage of its own convictions.
Scar[s] vacillates between the past and the present. In a surprisingly emotional current scene, Michonne sits with Judith and finally tells her the story, and explains that is why she closed ranks.

Danai Gurira's performance in this episode was a reminder of something that many viewers of The Walking Dead have known for years: that she truly is one of the best things to ever happen to this show.
A harrowing, tragic, and near nauseating chapter of The Walking Dead. It's also one of the most poignant episodes the show has produced to date.
It wasn't rock solid, but it's been a while since the show's dabbled in extreme violence toward children so there was a super harsh vibe here, which I dug.
