Warning: Spoilers
This chapter is perfect, it shows us how the governor prepares his people and has an interesting talk with hershel and michonne while they are captured, showing how the governor is a cruel person who only fends for himself and doesn't mind leaving children without parents that are not yours.

After the attack occurs, it begins with the governor threatening Rick and telling him that it can only work his way and that if he doesn't leave prison then no one will have him, he makes us analyze his offer and see how Rick seems to have the odds to lose. Rick's speech is wonderful but in the end he doesn't win anything because the governor calls him a liar and cuts off hershel's head, all the accumulated tension dies with hershel at this moment, we see everyone's desperation and how a war that does not begin it's going to end well no way. The emotional blow is very strong but the chapter keeps advancing.

Seeing the Governor kill Meghan's walker is a pretty hard scene to watch, we see Lizzie and Mika saving Tyreese by killing two of the Governor's people, we see a good scene from Daryl and we feel the tension of everyone escaping until we reach the death of the Governor. Governor, a sword blow from michonne defeats him but it is lilly who ends him with a shot to his face seeing how he could no longer be saved, finally rick and carl believe that judith died which is a very difficult scene to see to end with the last and one of the best shots at the prison, burned down with no one alive as rick and carl leave it behind what was lost in this chapter was wonderful and although the governor eventually died he did not leave without leaving permanent damage to rick's group, taking away his father figure and his home.

This chapter is a work of art that deserves to go down in history as one of the best on all of TV.
