Miles Behind Us
After Shane's burial, Lori displayed her disgust at him by spitting at his grave, indicating they had hooked up in Rick's absence. Dale asks Rick to be their new leader and Lori announced the news of her pregnancy. Along came Tyreese, Julie and Chris as they marched forward. Although Rick mistook Tyreese for a walker at first but these two got along just fine. They took shelter at "Wiltshire Estates" for a night and then forced to leave as they got swarmed by walkers. Later, they left their camp outside the city and they moved to the Greene family farm ran by Hershel Greene.
Safety Behind Bars
During their stay at Greene family farm, Glenn and Maggie starts dating and when an angry Harshel kicked out Rick and his gang after an incident that killed many of his children, he left behind at the farm. Rick's group hits the road again and all of them decided to take shelter on an abandoned prison that Andrea and Dale discovered and the trio of Rick, Andrea and Tyreese manages to completely clear it out of Walkers. Inside the compound, they met four remaining inmates who welcomed the group among them. Harshel is also invited to live among them and unaware of a threat that hides in plain sight.
The Heart's Desire
A mysterious katana-wielding survivor, Michonne is welcomed in Rick's gang after she safely escorted Otis back to the prison from a roaming horde. She used to walk with two of her pet Walkers, whom she crippled by hacking off their jaws and arms. When Rick agrees to let her in only if she hands over her sword and to kill them, she instantly beheads them. Tensions start rising when she tries to get cozy with Tyreese and hurting Carol's feelings, where she even tries to commit suicide. Rick and Tyreese have a fight over this issue and the former had to step down from the position of leadership.
The Best Defense
While tracking a crashed helicopter for survivors, Rick, Glenn and Michonne stumbles onto the community town called Woodbury. There the survivors' encounters the devilish leader of the town called The Governor. This lunatic enjoys people fighting in an arena surrounded by Walkers and he feeds strangers to them as well. He tries to squeeze information from Rick and his group by cutting Rick's right hand, brutally raping Michonne repeatedly and locks up Glenn to hear her screams. All he wants is to know where the prison compound is so that he can take their supplies and move with his town folks there.
This Sorrowful Life
With some unexpected help from The Governor's ally Caesar Martinez, Rick decides to escape from Woodbury with Glenn, Doctor Stevens and Nurse Alice. Michonne decides to stay behind for a while to settle some score with the maniacal leader of the town and promises to join them shortly. She breaks into Governor's apartment, knocks him off by surprise and then inflicted every other torture technique she could think off and successfully crippling him before escaping. Back at prison, Rick founds the compound overrunned and took care of a mole that he finds out.
The Calm Before
Lori finally opens up to Rick about her secret affair with Shane, that Rick admits of already knowing and requests her not to bring up. Glenn and Maggie get married through a small ceremony. Expecting a massive onslaught from Governor and his men from Woodbury, a small group from the prison goes to the National Guard Station for supplies. Lori finally gives birth to a baby girl who is named Judith. Dale gets bitten in the leg and one of the survivors totally loses it before doing the unthinkable. With all these trouble of their own, a threat arrives at their doorstep to knock them dead.
Made To Suffer
After getting severely mutilated by a vengeful Michonne, The Governor was nursed back to health. He gathers his men upon recovering and showed up at Rick's doorstep riding on a tank with Woodbury forces following his lead to kill Rick's group. In retaliation, Andrea fires at them from the guard tower to demolish Woodbury army but in the mean time, Tyreese and Michonne got captured at the hands of Governor's men. As they debate on whether to fight or run many of Rick's friend dies and the conflict between the two groups turns into a bloody massacre.
