There's not a lot that remains unsaid about Carol, but she was the star of this episode. Melissa McBride has done a phenomenal job of creating an incredible character, and 'Not Tomorrow Yet' demonstrates every side to her persona. As Tobin said, she's a mother because she makes the hard decisions, not just for the sweet side. We saw the first shard of Carol cracking up as she went through her list of kills. It humanised her, and added a whole new layer to the woman who has evolved from being a victim herself to a hugely significant player in the new world. We saw the incredible contrast between the loving cookie-baker and the walker-killer. Placing the cookie on Sam's grave was significant, and so too was her pleading with Maggie to stay behind. Now she's in a world of trouble, which is bad for her character, but incredible for the audience if it means we get to see Carol add to her kill list.
