Something
special was going the be needed to follow in pursuit of last week’s
brilliant episode, and fortunately, the show’s makers have an ace
up their sleeve. That ace just happens to be the long awaited first
encounter between Rick and The Governor and it is certainly well
worth the wait!
The two
groups are brought together when their two leaders try to discuss a
potential truce. However, The Governor has other things on his mind.
This episode
may contain less action than some others but it makes up for it with
wonderful character moments. The scenes between Rick and The Governor
are wonderfully executed with terrific central performances from
Andrew Lincoln and David Morrissey.
Elsewhere,
Andrea continues to be torn between the two groups, Merle continues
to prove to be hard to handle and Glenn and Maggie get the reignite
their relationship.
The episode
ends on an ominous note as The Governor makes his intentions clear
and Rick prepares his group for the tough times that ahead.
With so much
praise lavished on the production design and effects team during the
course of this season, this is a chance for the whole cast to come to
the fore and showcase their talents. Thanks to an excellent, they
more than meet the challenge to ensure this is another captivating
piece of television.
There are
only 3 episodes left this season and everything is in place to
deliver a gripping climax to an extremely high quality season.
