"This life now, you kill or you die. Or you die and you kill."
If there is one thing that desperately needs to be addressed about The Walking Dead, it is the series' tendency to just deliberately put off important plot elements in an episode. Instead, it favours pushing off these stories off to future episodes.
"This isn't a democracy any more."
Beside The Dying Fire saw the abandoning of the Greene family farm. As the large mass of walkers came to the farm, havoc was wreaked, killing some people, separating Andrea from everybody, and the group losing a home and the recreational vehicle.
"Freeing that prisoner -- more important to you than Carl?"
Better Angels is probably the weakest episode of the entire series so far. It had its moments, and some of it were good, but the way it ended was just awful. The irony of Carl shooting Shane was fine.

"You killed the living, to protect what's yours?"
Nightfall has arrived, making the perfect setting for a zombie survival horror scene.
"I hear Nebraska's nice."
