I'm happy for everybody who's enjoying this soft reboot so far, but personally, I just don't understand it.
This episode is a great example:

Problem: Some armed thugs want our stuff. Working with us isn't good enough and now they are getting ready for a suicide battle.
Solution: Wanna watch a movie lol?

Problem: A kill squad of your new enemies is sloooooowly marching towards your fortified position.
Solution: Let's just shoot one arrow through a random walkers head. Don't, under any circumstances, shoot the main thread, Beta! Getting nearly wiped out in a suicidal close combat situation is obviously the superior solution! Oh and checking if the guy I just kicked down one floor surely is completely dead. No need to check up on this!

The writing is just as bad as previous seasons. So this is it for me, I really tried to get into TWD again.

@strel0k I'm not mad at the first solution, Carol was already thinking they were bluffing to get a better deal anyways so she went for it and it worked. They never depicted this group as bloody thugs. The second solution is a bit off, true, but if you think about it Daryl didn't know how Beta looks like, and he probably thought he would just dodge the arrow (?).
