The Walking Dead, The Rotten Core: Things To Note
By Liam O'Leary
The Walking Dead season 11 episode 14
War between the Commonwealth and everyone else seems to be on the horizon. But are internal problems coming, too? Find out in The Walking Dead: Things To Note!
IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN!
I really liked last week’s episode “The Rotton Core” of The Walking Dead. Maybe it’s because it picked up in progress from the previous episode, making it feel like a two-part episode. It seemed more connected than the others we’ve had up to this point, which has had a month time jump between episodes. Regardless, I found myself really enjoying it.
This episode clarified that tensions will boil over between Alexandria, Hilltop, Oceanside, and the Commonwealth. The Virginia survivors will be going to war with Commonwealth soldiers doing the dirty work for Lance Hornsby, following the already nefarious arms deal he is doing behind the back of Governor Milton. Whether that war will begin before the end of this part of the season remains to be seen.
This week’s episode contained many little details — hints, clues, references, etc. — that are my bread and butter. Things that may not be important to the story right now but could be as things progress. As always, I like to go and collect as many of these as I can and put them all together, so you don’t have to go looking for them later.
Are you ready? It’s time for this week’s installment of The Walking Dead: Things To Note!
