The Walking Dead season 6 episode 5 review: Maggie drops huge bombshell as Glenn's death is still uncertain.

With half their group missing, an expectant mother among them and walkers lurking outside their walls, it is a tense time for the survivors in The Walking Dead. Season six's episode five, titled Now, saw the drama return to Alexandria for the first time in two weeks as the residents struggle to cope in the aftermath of the Wolves' attack.

After making what viewers are to assume is a superhero escape from the walker-swamped RV, the opening scene features a frantic Rick Grimes running for his life towards the gates of Alexandria with a horde hot on his trail. Of course, the group's leader makes it inside in the nick of time and it appears Michonne has also made it back safely – but still no sign of Glenn. The others are glad Rick is unharmed but his return has led the exact walkers he was trying to deflect away from the community right to their walls.

The situation is no better on the inside either with Alexandria and its inhabitants crumbling thanks to the Wolves and their onslaught of violence. Simply put, the residents are a complete mess and Deanna spends the majority of the episode walking around in a daze, full of grief at the sudden death of her husband Reg at the end of season five and dismayed at what her community has become.
