After several months of starvation and scavenging backed up with the depression caused by Bob, Beth and Tyreese deaths, the group has finally found a safe zone. But Rick is not convinced and he feels that Alexandria will make his group weak. He decides to continue on leading the group and looking after his people. Spoilers of the next episode "Remember" will make viewers question Rick's inability to put his faith in other people.
Everyone in Rick's group will finally get the chance to sleep in a nice bed and eat descent meals after being offered two houses in the community. Rick will still be the voice and the leader of his group. He decides that the group remains close with each other and order everyone to stay in one house, in a room. Of course, the leaders of the community will question his decisions, but as long as they are not hurting or threatening the people of Alexandria, the leaders will let them be.
Daryl has inhibitions as well in staying in the community. There's plenty of food around but he chose to skin his bounty, just like the way that he's used to doing. Rick feels the same way. He thinks that the place will make them weak. The place will make them bring their guard down, most of them.
Alexandria just like Woodberry, the Governor's town has its secrets as well. The people inside are thought on how to run from walkers, so a walker is inside the compound. Unfortunately, just when Rick's group discover this, the walker happens to escape. Luckily, Glenn will manage to kill it even before it has managed to hurt anyone in the community.
The people in Alexandria are still secretive on what they intend to make use of Ricks group. Fans of the series could easily conclude that the community has no "muscle", no manpower. They are being trained to run instead of facing the enemies. Rick's group will most likely become the defenders of the community. But how can they defend the area if Rick's planning to get the place for themselves the community in Alexandria falls down?
