Robb Black Gets Up Early on a Sunday Morning to Watch Episode 603 "Alaska" on Premiere to Answer Your Questions

Where does Morgan get the crib?
We don't see where Morgan gets the crib or how he gets it back to their hideout. However, it looks like Daniel is helping Morgan with scavenging by giving him food supplies from the community. The baby is happy and healthy as is Rachel.

Do we meet the white-masked group this episode?
No.

Does Al contact Isabelle?
Al has been keeping tabs on Isabelle through the radio. Even though CRM rotates the frequencies they use Al has been able to pick up enough to figure out where and when Isabelle might be landing. Dwight convinces Al to head into the city so Al can try to meet up with Isabelle at the drop site. Al manages to get to the roof, but makes a tough call to wave off Isabelle at the last minute because the building has been infested with rats carrying the plague. They exchange "coded" greetings over the radio and the helicopter then flies off.

Any additional information about the CRM?
We learn that the CRM were using the rooftop of an office building in the downtown area of a city as a drop site for fuel and supplies. We also hear about how they continue to be ruthless to anyone outside the CRM -- in this case killing someone who had gone to the roof to investigate why a helicopter had landed there (this happened in the past before Dwight and Al arrived).

Does Morgan reunite with anyone else from the group in this episode?
We only see Morgan at the beginning. After bringing supplies back for Rachel and the baby, Morgan takes apart the axe and converts his staff into a pole arm using the axe blade. And yes, it is as bad-ass as it sounds.

Any updates on Rufus or Skidmark?
No.

Is Sherry and Dwight reunited?

Yes. Sherry sees the flare Al shoots off on the roof when she was signalling Isabelle. Sherry calls out on the radio to see if someone needs help. Dwight recognizes her voice and replies. The next thing you know Dwight is outside of the building and runs into a nearby alley where Sherry is waiting. They embrace and the episode ends.

This episode was directed by Colman Domingo and I think this episode is the best of the three he has directed on the show to date. Austin Amelio and Maggie Grace really shine in this episode as well. Their task for Ginny has been tracking down fallen communities/settlements and attempting to document why the communities have fallen. Dwight and Al work well together as they move through buildings clearing out the dead. Their interaction flows naturally and none of their dialogue seems particularly forced. Dwight seems to have opened up and it is nice to see him finally free of whatever baggage he had been carrying from being with The Saviors. The pacing is good and Domingo keeps the story moving. We get to meet a new community of survivors who face a new deadly threat, the bubonic plague. They seem to be setting us up for conflict with the group who is spraying painting "The End is the Beginning" by suggesting that group is responsible for spreading the plague. There is a great scene towards the end when they are trying to clear out a room of walkers. When the woman using a gun runs out of bullets, they start grabbing various office equipment and using it to take out walkers (ala Bruce Willis' scene in Pulp Fiction). But the real payoff of this episode is the final scene when Dwight and Sherry are finally reunited. Grab a box of tissues because this is what you all have been waiting for and Domingo does a great job with the scene. He keeps it simple, just Dwight and Sherry embracing as the camera circles around them.

I give this episode a 9/10.
