* AlwaysWithYou: After their fight, Okafor tells Rick that his family will always be with him even though he can’t escape as a last cold comfort.
* TheComicallySerious: Rick is in no mood for the wisecracking Esteban’s well-intentioned jokes, making some of his reactions pretty funny.
** Rick nearly took his own life when it seemed there was truly no safe escape from the CRM. In the pilot episode, he also nearly took his life when he was surrounded by walkers and seemingly had no safe way to escape.
* TheDeterminator: As "Rest in Peace" showed, Rick made numerous attempts to escape, biding his time whenever necessary. The escape shown in that episode is revealed to have been his third, and by his fourth he’d become so desperate he amputated his hand to try to escape.
* IHaveYourWife: The CRM knows of the Coalition and it’s location and Okafor warns that if Rick made it back there, he or someone else in the CRM would inevitably go there and wipe it out with the CRM’s superior resources and firepower.
