The Walking Dead Seeing Carol Again

Something of a Walking Dead season 10c rarity occurs during the fifth and penultimate episode of this six-office mini-series, with the show refocusing on 2 characters who've already featured during this half-dozen block of special episodes. This week nosotros're back with Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol (Melissa McBride) following the revelatory events of 'Find Me', with the BFFs not exactly seeing eye-to-eye at the moment and Ballad because her options at Alexandria. Here's what went down in The Walking Dead season 10 episode 21, 'Diverged'.

What happened in The Walking Expressionless this week?

• Daryl, Carol and Canis familiaris are back on the move, but in that location's tension between the two survivors (won't somebody call back of Dog?). Yearning to find more in the way of food and supplies for anybody dorsum at Alexandria, Daryl opts to stay out hunting while Carol returns to camp. It'southward an outcome that suits both parties, and every bit they go their separate ways Carol tells Daryl that he doesn't need to apologise for his outburst at Leah's motel – which is a expert job, considering Daryl wasn't near to apologise and patch things up. "I know he meant what he said – an apology is but a truce," Carol sighs. "Information technology doesn't ready anything."
• Dorsum at Alexandria, Carol seeks out a task to distract herself from her thoughts but lovable, jovial Jerry (Cooper Andrews) struggles to advise a job for her to complete. Carol resolves to make soup for the Alexandria residents, despite Jerry trying to put her off doing such a thing due to a lack of power and ingredients, too equally a contempo rat infestation.
• While Carol is making the soup, Domestic dog becomes alarmed at the presence of something – only information technology's zilch besides sinister: it'due south but a rat. Carol, though, is elated at having something productive to do and she sets well-nigh edifice a rat trap. Leaving the completed trap behind, she then heads out into the wild to find soup ingredients and is confronted by a small-ish onslaught of walkers – which, to nobody's surprise whatsoever, she deals with masterfully. Back at military camp (and confidently striding past a startled Jerry), she so successfully fixes a solar-panelled power generator and gets on with the task of making soup – all in a day's work for Carol.
• Daryl, meanwhile, is now fixated on fixing his motorcycle afterwards it breaks down, and is nearly crushed under a precariously balanced abandoned car while hunting for spare parts due to the motility of the hungry walker trapped inside it. He then spies another walker dressed in United states of america Regular army gear and goes after information technology. Later on a cursory tussle, Daryl overpowers the zombie and steals its military-issued Swiss ground forces knife before swiping supplies from the pack of some other quickly-dealt-with soldier-walker. He eventually manages to set his bicycle using the swiped knife and rides away from any further danger.

• Back at Alexandria, the rat is loose! Carol gives hunt as a bemused Domestic dog watches on, only the rodent evades capture. The solar panel then gives out, catastrophe Ballad's cooking ambitions for the day and farther compounding her misery. After that night, Ballad admits that "all of the fight has gone out of me" to Canis familiaris (who is pining for Daryl: "He'll come back. He always comes dorsum," Ballad reassures him) before wondering aloud if she should "scram, become out of everyone'due south hair" – but she'd miss Daryl likewise much to do that right now (hello, spin-off).
• Carol is woken by Dog a few hours later and goes downstairs to investigate. Down in the garage, she hears rustling behind the drywall and carves a square out of it to look within: zero. She then starts hammering at the drywall indiscriminately with a knife, causing a ton of damage but ultimately finding zippo but an outlet for her frustrations.
• The next morning Jerry comes round to check in on Carol, having been inspired to do so by Ezekiel'due south kind-and-caring approach to the welfare of his other survivors. "Can't you let people like me suffer in peace?" Carol says, earlier admitting that the previous twenty-four hours was "a bad day" for her mentally. Jerry manages to heighten her spirits slightly as they both realise that they are missing their apocalypse buddies (Jerry = Ezekiel; Carol = Daryl). The damn rat and so emerges and escapes, raising a smile from both Carol and Jerry.
• A few hours later Daryl returns as Carol is seen fixing the drywall she destroyed the previous night. Domestic dog is delighted to come across Daryl, every bit is Carol – though she doesn't express it. Their breakdown in advice continues, and they both resolve to go to bed in carve up parts of their house every bit their frosty relationship continues.

Walker pack put-down of the week

"What, think I tin't accept you myself?" Carol asks of a group of walkers who surround her while she'due south out collecting ingredients for her soup. Naturally, she puts all of them out of their undead misery ane-past-one using a simple hunting knife. Never bet confronting Carol.

This week'south biggest question: What will it have to patch up Daryl and Carol's friendship?

A largely depression-primal affair in general, 'Diverged' featured just 3 speaking-role characters and a distinct lack of pilus-raising scares, tussles or Russian roulette sequences (of all the season 10C episodes so far, this one felt like the most Covid-affected). Still, the relatively slow step of this episode built on the current discord between Daryl and Carol after they shared some harsh truths near their friendship in 'Find Me'. As mentioned above, Ballad is still actively thinking most leaving the survivors' customs – and it's not guaranteed that she'll stick out the entirety of the Walking Dead's terminal flavor before skipping out and embarking on her spin-off series with Daryl. But in that location'southward loose ends to be tied up in the hither and now before that can happen – and so who volition intermission the ice first?
