The Walking Deadconcluded its midseason finale with the shows biggest shocker yet.
Showrunner Scott M. Gimple concurs, noting that, Carls presence is felt very deeply throughout the story.
Its a critical aspect of the season.

Especially when it comes to Carls father Rick.
This is his worst nightmare being realized.
I love the way some of those stories get wrapped in the end.
Theres a real beauty to it.
Its not exactly the way that you think.
It wraps up in a very poetic way.
