Josh Hamilton as Lance Hornsby – The Walking Dead _ Season 11, Episode 5 – Photo Credit: Josh Stringer/AMC The CommonwealthĪfter a long and grueling admissions process, our group is finally allowed entry into the Commonwealth. I like that we’re learning more about Rosita, especially considering how long she’s been a part of the show.

Turns out she never knew her father, and her mother died when she was young. We actually learn about Rosita’s past here.

They also trash one of Judith’s most beloved possessions: a piece of wood with Carl’s handprint painted on it.įortunately, Rosita is there to comfort her. However, as strong as she is, Judith does sometimes show weakness. The teens touch a nerve by teasing her about Michonne. It’s Judith to the rescue! I’m enjoying seeing her come into her own. She shows no fear in confronting the teens and even puts a knife to one of their throats. Of course, Judith is having none of this. While hanging out with her friends in Alexandria, Judith sees some teenagers messing around with a walker in a way that could endanger everyone in the community. She’s not a person anyone would want to mess with. She acts like someone twice, perhaps even thrice her age. Ross Marquand as Aaron – The Walking Dead _ Season 11, Episode 5 – Photo Credit: Josh Stringer/AMC Judith Our group believed her dead after Carol blew up the cave back in season 10, so this news will surely come as a relief to Carol. The big reveal comes when a Whisperer hints that Connie (Lauren Ridloff) is alive. He looked like he would’ve killed everyone if Carol wasn’t there to kick some sense into him. This bit feels like it’s here to tie up loose ends more than anything, and also to show how Aaron has become more unforgiving. It’s by far the most brutal part of the episode - at one point he lets a walker bite the Whisperer’s hand. But that’s not all they find there they come across a group of remaining Whisperers, all that remains after the war against Alpha.Īaron takes it upon himself to torture one of the Whisperers for information. When they arrive at the Hilltop, they have to fight off multiple walkers, many of them old friends. He’s joined by Carol (Melissa McBride), Magna (Nadia Hiker), Kelly (Angel Theory) and Lydia (Cassady McClincy). His solution to the problem is to begin a mission to the wreckage of the Hilltop to recover supplies. He shuts down suggestions that everyone should neglect Alexandria altogether, declaring it his “Home.” Everyone manages to take care of the situation without any casualties, although it’s clear that additional security measures are needed. After the Whisperers destroyed the community, the walls have been crumbling and the zombies help themselves inside. Clearly, his time being tortured - both physically and mentally - by Mays has gotten to him.Īaron has troubles in the waking world, too, as Alexandria is attacked by walkers. The episode kicks off with a dream sequence where he’s attacked and killed by former enemies.


His comments about Gracie (Annabelle Holloway) are still weighing on him. His encounter with Mays (Robert Patrick) is fresh in his mind.
