(Dark horse candidate for fifth on the kill-your-ass-dead list: rabies.

Think about all the zombie meat that your average feral animal is eating.

Id be just as afraid of raccoons as walkers.

For those who missed the nuances of the opening sequence, heres a recap-within-the-recap:

6:00 A.M.

Funny that Gabe looks exhausted because we havent seen him kill a damn thing.

Michonne stops by to see the kids, but Judith barely has time to ask Is it safe?

before she gets an emergency call on the walkie.HOUR 49: Two walker posses coming from different directions.

Michonne lowers binoculars and seems to think WTF, as do we.

Two groups will fight off the walker waves, while a smaller envoy meets with Alpha.

Predictably, the summit does not go well.

Punishment is due, she says, but I considahcon-text.

There will be no bloodshed this time.

Instead, Alpha sets a new border, one that strips the survivors of their hunting grounds.

Carol pulls her snub-nose pistol and would have shot Alpha point blank if not for Michonnes lightning-fast reflexes.

You work those sleep deprivation lewks, gurl!)

Even worse, Carol literally walks into a Whisperer trap and suffers a nasty wound in the process.

The testy debate ends with Negan saving his work-release manager and even helping him recover from hogweed blindness.

(Who knew?)

Then theres Eugene, who somehow still thinks hes got a shot at being re-zoned into Lovetown with Rosita.

Looks like Alpha wasnt kidding when she said shes always watching them.

To answer your question, Judith no, it definitely isnt safe.

Stay awoke, kid.
