Carol tells Maggie that before the Fall, they never would’ve spoken to each other, recalling Maggie’s famous speech at the end of Season 7 wherein she said the same thing.
Daryl interrogates the Commonwealth trooper, and in a stark contrast to how he interrogated Randall in Season 2’s “Judge, Jury, Executioner”, he starts out gentle.
Gabriel relates how fear can drive someone into acts of cowardice and terrible things, just like how he related he locked his congregation out at the start of the Fall.
Ezekiel lambastes Negan for his atrocities as leader of the Saviors - burning people’s faces with irons, coercing women into glorified prostitution, and massacring his people, specifically recalling the slaughter of the Kingdom militia in Season 8’s “Monsters”.
Driven to Suicide: The train operator kills himself, too afraid of him and his family being tortured by the Warden.

Family of Choice: Carol reminds Maggie of how the group made this after the Fall due to surviving together.

I Have Your Wife: The Commonwealth Warden warns the Coalition residents that they won’t see their kids again if they do not comply with them.

POW Camp: The Coalition residents are put into one where they are going to do hard labor for the benefit of the Commonwealth, presumably until Pamela sees no further use for them as hostages.
Red Shirt: Three Coalition residents try to make a run for it when a trooper is distracted by Negan but are immediately gunned down.
Ship Tease: Daryl is obviously affected seeing Connie loaded onto the train and later has a sweet moment with her in which he outright chuckles at her.

What Happened to the Mouse?: The only group members seen in the prison camp are Negan, Annie, Ezekiel, and Kelly, with Gabriel, Rosita and Maggie escaping their confinement. While the children are mentioned to be in a secure location, no other group member appears in this episode - no Diane, Magna, or Princess. Virgil is still absent as well, but he’s been missing since Part 1.
