The Walking Dead ended last night’s episode with Rick and the gang being surrounded by another group with guns,sharp objects and he was happy about it.

Spoilers--Spoilers--Spoilers--Spoilers--Spoilers--Spoilers--Spoilers--Spoilers

The mid-season premiere “Rock in The Road” opened with Father Gabriel standing guard than possibly making a security check ( or so we thought) of the pantry but than something strange happens, there is a loud crash and than we see him sweating and cleaning out the pantry of the remaining food and weapons. You don’t see anyone else with him but he’s clearly shaken. He's seen pouring gas in the gas tank of a car, than he hops into the drivers seat and is gone. What the hell Father Gabriel? People are saying that there was someone slouched down in the passenger seat but I’ve watched that scene three times and don’t see anyone.

Rosita and Sasha,of course we knew these two wouldn't all of the sudden be BFF’s but Rosita truly let that be known in this episode,by telling Sasha because we slept with the same guy (Abraham) doesn’t make us friends. Ahh..don’t get it twisted sister. Now, it makes those rumors that started popping up on social media back in December might actually have some truth to them. When did Sasha sleep with Abraham? It was never shown, even with their interactions,I didn’t get the feeling they had reached that part in their relationship. I always felt they were still feeling each other out and Sasha was still mending emotionally from losing Bob and her brother. I can see some sort of “flashback” happening and it won’t be a good thing. At least executive producer Greg Nicotero puts more perspective on this episode in his latest interview with Entertainment Weekly. When asked when Rick’s group is surrounded by this new group, carrying shovels and guns and he’s all smiles. What is that smile about?

“Of course he is. It’s the perfect ending for the episode. You know, we see him at the beginning, he's pretty dedicated to putting an army together. He needs people to fight, so he goes to the Hilltop. He has a loss with Gregory but then he has a win with Maggie. Then he goes to see King Ezekiel and the king was not necessarily willing to fight but Rick knows they’re there. Then they find all the explosives on the freeway. So, the whole episode is really based on the series of wins and losses for Rick but Rick’s not giving up.
