17 Totally Warranted Reactions to The Walking Dead's Latest Episode (and Yes, That Sex Scene)

After The Walking Dead came back with a bang last week, we weren't really sure what to expect when it came to watching episode 10, "The Next World." Although the vicious new villain Negan has yet to make an appearance, this week's episode gave us a brand-new character in the form of comic book fan-favorite Paul "Jesus" Monroe, an unexpectedly hot sex scene between two longtime characters, and some solid moments of the zombie drama's most adorable bromance. Keep scrolling for the perfect GIFs to help you navigate the emotional waterfall that was this episode, and check out Daryl Dixon's hottest scenes. Note: major spoilers below!
