There were some genuinely touching moments between certain characters this episode: Rosita and Gabe, Zeke and Carol, Daryl and Judith.
However it was the action-packed ending which fell flat and was nonsensical at times. Walkers are let loose on a crowd and hilariously they mostly only go for the main characters despite there being hundreds of living people around them. Also its hilarious that one walker can kill any unnamed background character with ease but as soon as a main character gets grabbed the walkers are useless all of a sudden. Like Stephanie (who never sees any action) can easily hold off a walker but Sebastian gets easily killed by one only because the Plot needs him to die.
Plus, Daryl and Judith talk about saving and protecting everyone, but are firing guns into a stampeding crowd. I might be nitpicking but the whole action sequence at the end just was full of problems, it kind of broke the immersion.
In any case, it was a decent episode and I'm glad they are wrapping up the Commonwealth plotline soon. It has run its course and we either need a time jump or a location change before the end to keep things fresh.
Also, all the references to Rick are very annoying when it seems pretty clear that he won't show up in the main series, only in the spin-off. So yeah, if they could stop baiting us with Rick that would be nice.
