The 5 biggest moments from last night's 'The Walking Dead'
From USA Today

Spoiler alert! The following contains details from Sunday's episode of The Walking Dead.

Keep walking, Pete.

The latest episode of The Walking Dead, "Try," continued to drive our survivors and the people of Alexandria closer and closer to conflict, which we can only guess will come in next Sunday's 90-minute season finale. And while most of the episode was spent setting the table for what we assume will be an intense episode next weekend, we still spent most of it on the edge of our seats. Here are the biggest moments from "Try":

5. Carl and Enid get close in the woods



Aw, isn't pre-teen love adorable when it comes packaged with potential horrible death? Carl, still wearing that sheriff's hat, discovered that he wasn't being too secretive when he followed fellow outcast teen Enid into the woods. But that was OK, because she likes him too! The two shared a touching moment hiding inside a hollow tree while a herd of walkers went by (which basically is a date — hey, you can't be too picky in the post apocalypse). We're sure, given how lucky romantic couples have been on this show, that everything is going to work out great for these crazy kids.

4. Daryl and Aaron stumble into an episode of True Detective



The back half of season five has shown us more than a few walkers with a "W" carved into their foreheads. We haven't had a lot of time to give it too much thought, given everything else that's been happening lately, but it seems clear that "W" (if it stands for a person) is going to play a bigger role in the season finale, after Daryl and Aaron come across the naked body of a woman tied to a tree, eaten by walkers with a big "W" on her head. It's a scene that kind of looks like it belongs in True Detective, and definitely indicates that the person behind the initial is, well, not a nice guy.

3. Sasha goes on a suicide mission



Sasha is dealing with some issues. After losing Bob and Tyreese this season, she's not doing too well. She's taking out her emotions by hunting walkers outside the wall, which is great and everything, except that she would have died this episode if Michonne and Rosita hadn't tracked her down. It's a reiteration of the theme of this episode, of our survivors "trying" to make it work in Alexandria, only being drawn back to the outside world that they have come to call home. It's the reason Carl and Enid had their rendezvous while they teased a walker, why Glenn called out Nicholas (aka the worst man left alive) and why Rick does everything he does in this episode, like when...

2. Pete and Rick finally come to blows



It was only a matter of time. After Carol confirmed that Pete was hitting his wife (which she didn't even need to, given that Pete is basically a drunk, sweaty caricature of an abusive husband who only appears at the worst moments possible), Rick decided it was high time he did something about it. First he went to Deanna, who basically said Pete was too valuable to piss off because he's a doctor, and then he went to Jessie and kind of bullied her into asking him for help (really there was little difference between Rick and Pete in that scene). Obviously when Rick confronted Pete, it led to a brawl that took the two crashing through a window into the street. They only stopped when a blood-soaked Rick incapacitated Pete enough to give a crazed speech about the Alexandrians being ignorant of the realities of the world. And then he was only stopped when...

1. Michonne takes care of business

Michonne got to do what pretty much everyone wanted to do this episode: Punch Rick in the face. When our fearless leader was going on and on and on about the way the world works, without an end in sight, Michonne took matters into her own hands and knocked him out cold. We have to say, Rick wasn't doing himself any favors by ranting on like a crazy person covered in the blood of a man who most Alexandrians respect. We're guessing he's not going to be in a very good situation when he wakes up.

We have so many questions that need to be answered in next week's finale. Who's behind the "W" zombies? How did Nicholas find Rick's hidden gun? Does Rick still have the support of our survivors? What happened to Carol's casserole?

We're just going to have to tune in next week to find out.
