Review:
Regina was killed by Pete, and a funeral was decided to be held for Scott and Pete. Despite the faults, Pete had been a husband and a father and it presented an opportunity to discuss the matter openly with the entire community to come together. However, during the service, a gunshot came from outside the gates with someone wanting to get in. However, they end up being killed so that they couldn't attack the community and jeopardize the safety of everyone was lives there. The bodies ended up being buried in the ground. Douglas tells Rick that his time as community leader is over now, and that Rick should be the one to take his place because they need him in charge.
