This is a good episode with some great art design and solid character moments.
The writers seem quite determined to present everything that happens to characters when they are off screen in different episodes and this one shows Carol at various points when we didn't see her. These are good if you are interested in the characters and want to know details. If not, it might feel like a way to stretch out the overarching narrative. As these are two of the best characters in the show it's an enjoyable period of time spent with them.
The present plot thread provides a good build up to what is likely to be coming, but for me there are moments of predictability and contrivances that feel like they are written to generate drama. One character stopping another from using a gun, characters unnecessary getting themselves into perilous positions, coincidental meetings, and the sudden appearance of zombies can be mildly frustrating at times. None of it spoils the entertainment though.
The best scenes for me are in the women's shelter, particularly the appearance to two zombies behind a glass door and the interaction between the two characters.
Melissa McBride and Norman Reedus have great chemistry and give strong performances as always.
The apocalyptic landscape of Atlanta looks great, with some grand scale design applied to the city streets, clever use of CGI, zombie extras, and props.
