When Does Rick Stop Being a Deputy and Start Being a Ruler?

A small fire by a dark road, a crumbling wall, the farm gone and Andrea missing. Rick Grimes is the only one still standing when he tells the group how things will work from now on. This video traces the long road from King County deputy to the man everyone looks to for the final call. The turning points: Otis. Shane comes back with supplies and a story, and only he knows the price of Carl's life. The Woodbury arena. Daryl and Merle forced to fight, and Rick's group crashing the show with smoke and gunfire. Terminus. Carol and the propane tank, then Gareth finding Rick waiting at Father Gabriel's church. Rick and Michonne. Partners in the fight become partners at home, and in every decision. All Out War. Jadis turns her guns, Negan arrives, and Sasha waits inside a coffin. The bridge. Former Saviors vanish, and Rick and Daryl trade fists in the dirt over a world with Negan in it. The Reapers. Daryl meets Leah again, and she takes Pope's place. Merle's handcuffs. The deputy who once locked a man to a roof ends up paying the same price to get free. Walker Atlas charts the groups, leaders and hard choices of the apocalypse. If watching a leader take shape one hard call at a time is your thing, come along.
