Last Sunday's episode of "The Walking Dead," titled "Remember," saw Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) and his team of survivors finally entering the Alexandria Safe Zone, and being interviewed by Deanna (Tovah Feldshuh) before being handed jobs.

Several interesting incidents happened as members of Rick's group tried to fit into the community while protecting themselves.

As soon as the group entered the safe zone, Daryl (Norman Reedus) was startled by a noise and shot a possum with an arrow. Rick was not happy about handing over their guns at the gate, and had Sasha (Sonequa Martin-Green) kill a walker with her rifle just to demonstrate how good they were in playing the game of survival.

Each member of the group was then interviewed by former congresswoman Deanna Monroe, the leader of the safe zone.

Rick warned her of the dangers outside and advised her to keep the gates closed. Michonne (Danai Gurira) said she was happy to be there. Carol (Melissa McBride) lied when she said she missed her abusive husband. Daryl ridiculed Carol and her housewife clothes.

Rick and his team then finally enjoyed the luxury of taking a refreshing shower. Rick finally got his beard shaved. Soon after, a blonde neighbor named Jessie (Alexandra Breckenridge) arrived and offered to cut his hair. She also introduced to Carl (Chandler Riggs) her son who is of the same age as him. Carl then met another girl, Enid (Katelyn Nacon).

The next day found her climbing over the walls and going into the forest. As Carl and Rick followed, they encountered walkers and killed them.

Rick then found that a gun he had hidden in a blender outside the safe zone was missing.

Glenn (Steven Yeun), Noah (Tyler James Williams) and Tara (Alanna Masterson) joined Ryan and Deanna's son Aidan (Daniel Bonjour) on a team that went on supply runs. They then discovered that Aidan had tied up a walker but it escaped. Soon, the walker found them and tried to attack Tara, but Glenn stabbed it in the head. This angered Ryan and he tried to hit Glenn who immediately knocked him out. This led Deanna to giving Rick and Michonne the job of policing the safe zone.

Towards the end of the episode, the group discussed their future in the zone. Rick reassured Carol that they would not become weak and would make the zone work. If this fails, they will just have to take control of the safe zone.
