Storyline

Rick tries to make contact with Morgan to tell him his location. Back at camp, after the fight with the zombies, Jim has been bitten and is slowly beginning to change; Andrea mourns over Amy's death; and Shane blames it all on Rick for leaving. Now that camp isn't safe anymore, Rick decides that it's time for them all to move out. He plans to take them to the C.D.C., a military base, to find a cure for Jim and, hopefully, more survivors.

Goofs

When Andrea is sitting by her sister's body, and Rick goes over to talk to her, she draws a handgun on him. She visibly doesn't cock the gun as she draws it, but the racking of the slide is still heard. See more »

Quotes

[first lines]
Rick Grimes: [into walkie-talkie] Morgan: I don't know if you're out there, I don't know if you can hear me, maybe you're listening right now. I hope so. I found others: my family, if you can believe it. My wife and son, they're alive, I wanted you to know that. There's something else you *need* to know: Atlanta isn't what we thought, it's not what they promised, the city is... do not enter the city. It belongs to the dead now. We're camped a few miles northwest, up by a big, abandoned rock ...

The group is reducing by numbers.
11 July 2012 | by (Istanbul, Turkey) – See all my reviews

One episode away from season finale, and things are getting heated up. Story seems to be flowing less fluidly, but character depth and reducing of the group seems good for the finale.

Aftermath of walker attack, group is burying their loved ones and igniting the 'dead' walkers. Andrea is having bad times, whereas a shocking discovery is made about Jim, and now his fate is in hands of his friends.

Rick throws an idea of going to CDC, gets responds both positive and negative, especially from Shane. Shane makes a trip into the woods with Dale and Rick, and he changes his mind.

The group is splits up, some goes to other places to look hope, and the reduced group finally reaches CDC, but their lives is in the hand of Doctor Jenner, whose story is shown in this episode.

It is going well, I'm expecting a good season finale, from the look of this episode. My vote is 7/10.
