- We get more of an expanded origin of Alpha and Beta it appears. Flashing back 7 years. The lady you believe will play a role in episode wakes up and is soon devoured in a nice twist to start it.



- This also expands on the Whisperer who gave up the baby to be nearly sacrificed last year in an episode. Given a sister , we see that the sister does not get along with her. In a scene she remembers what she lost and nearly gets bit. Beta isn't happy with her after he saves her.


- Its Beta who wears a mask in a way , which inspires Alpha as we discover. He's responsible for what the Whisperers would soon adopt.



- Beta lays it down that Alpha has to deliver the punishment to the one who lost her child. Alpha herself is going through issues over the loss of Lydia and can understand what this young girl feels. Instead of punishment , Alpha...spares her !



- Beta and Alpha bond as they each take short letters. A and B.


- Its Beta who doubts this girls commitment to Whisperers and Alpha's leadership now. His instinct is right as the girl's sister basically helps her die by being eaten by walkers as Beta watches. That she had to protect the Alpha.


- Alpha compliments her on letting her sister die. Beta isn't happy with how 3 of their people died and a few of the dead. But Alpha proclaims there is beauty with the chaos.


- Beta follows where Alpha has been going and learns she has a shrine to Lydia. Alpha had lied to everyone except Beta about Lydia being dead it appears. The 2 clash over this as Alpha has a break down mentally over her daughter never being like her.



- Alpha manages at the end to recruit Beta in the mental institution. It appears that Beta possibly is the best friend of the boy in the picture and had a mental breakdown himself over losing him when bitten. Maybe both were in mental institution but he takes his face at the end .
