The Calm Before pulled a stunt I would only have expected from a Game of Thrones episode and it would glorious. This series has seriously been going down hill the past few seasons, and with the exit of Rick and Maggie, I expected the show to fail miserably. But ever since the introduction of the Whisperers, the show has managed to find its footing, something they haven't done since season 5. The Alpha is up there with the Governor and Negan as the best villains in the show, she is truly wonderful and intimidating to watch.
This was a fantastic episode, and I hope the show manages to keep this up, because it is needed as a few years of boring. Maybe it's the show's new leadership? Whatever it is, it's working.

- Quotes
[last lines]
Siddiq: I was there. I was taken with the others. And I saw. I was supposed to die with them. I was ready to. Then, Alpha whispered in my ear, "Tell them." Something hit me and everything went black. And when I woke up, I was alone. What happened was evil. It was evil. And I think she left me alive to tell you that story. To scare you and to drive us all apart again. But I want to tell you a different story.
[cut to the flashback of the victims being held hostage by the Whisperers]
Siddiq: [voiceover] See, before the end, Ozzy, Ale and DJ found us and they gave us an opening. And everyone fought back. They fought like hell. And what they did was more than brave. 'Cause they defended each other and they sacrificed for each other and some of them, they didn't even know each other, but they still fought like they did. Like they were family. Til the very end.
[Henry sees Alpha arriving as the flashback transitions back to the present]
Siddiq: [tearfully] And, uh... And in the end, they... Their time was cut short. Ours keeps going. So we have to keep going. For them and for all of us. We need to honor them. We need to honor them and we need to remember these friends, our family, died as heroes. That's the story that I want to tell you. That's the story that I want us all to remember.
