The sixth episode of The Walking Dead season eight took us another step away from the big battles we’ve been experiencing during this All Out War story arc and instead took us with the gang on several smaller missions. Rick went to renegotiate with the Trash People for some reason, Michonne and Rosita headed off to the Sanctuary for some reason, and so did Daryl and Tara.
Then there was Carl doing what Carl does best: disappearing off into danger. At least he had a clear purpose: to track down Siddiq, who his dad nearly killed earlier this season. And while he almost died, at least his mission was pure at heart and made some sense. Fans of The Walking Dead on Twitter couldn’t believe what they were seeing for most of the rest of the episode.
First, everyone really wants to know what’s up with the Heapsters? I know, there are 1001 different derogatory names for Jadis and her dump dwelling crew. The only thing more fun than making up insults about them is speculating on their unusual naked crafting habits.

Jadis should spend less time sculpting and more time brushing up on her English language skills. #TheWalkingDead @AMCTalkingDead #freshbuzz

Jadis and the Garbage Pail Kids do know that Twitter upgraded their character limit to 280 and they don't have to talk in 140 characters or less. #TheWalkingDead #TWD #TWDFamily #TalkingDead @AMCTalkingDead

And then there was Gregory, who finally got a bit of comeuppance for betraying the Hilltop.

But we have to say Rosita really stole the show this episode, going big with a rocket launcher and not hesitating to pull the trigger when she needed to.
