After dialing it back to focus on Negan confronting his legacy through Brandon in the previous episode, the show's sixth episode went wild with Negan's arrival into the lives of the Whisperers. Not only did his motor mouth cause problems with Beta, leading to some genuinely hilarious moments involving Negan pushing the giant's buttons, he quickly worked his way right to the top, proving his loyalty to Alpha.

In between all the Negan action, too, the show found time for some serious material between Daryl and Carol, the latter still on a path of self-destruction in her pursuit to kill Apha and the former growing increasingly tired of seeing his best friend losing it. Though Carol attempted to get Daryl to just get to confessing his feelings for Connie already, the upbeat banter eventually fell away to Daryl's admission that he can't trust Carol anymore.

Throw in other elements of the episode like Eugene's private bonding with the mysterious woman on the radio, the worsening infection spreading throughout Alexandria that the troubled Siddiq struggled to stop, and Carol's taking of a Whisperer as a prisoner and the whole thing served as yet another well-rounded hour of the season that struck a fine balance between its comedic and dramatic moments.
