Hence, this nice, plump side plot focused on Morgan ( Lenny James) and Carol ( Melissa McBride) returning to the burning Kingdom to rescue Ezekiel ( Khary Payton). While Carl’s impending death dominated the episode, nearly ninety minutes of tearful goodbyes would’ve been too bleak to handle. Here’s everything that happened in the mid-season premiere. The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9/8c on AMC.With a close focus on Carl’s last moments, “Honor” was an episode with a lot of heart … and, occasionally, other internal organs. It looks like Negan's going to survive this war because that's what Carl wanted. Then another flash-forward to Rick when his mercy prevailed over his wrath.

They all told each other they loved each other, and Rick again promised to "make it real."
