What would\u00a0The Walking Dead\u00a0<\/em>have\u00a0<\/em>been without\u00a0Rick Grimes? It\u2019s almost impossible to imagine. He’s the driving force behind everything that makes the show unforgettable, and the reason the story felt alive, intense, and impossibly gripping.<\/p>\n From his cautious first steps into a world overrun by walkers to his bold acts of heroism and moral dilemmas, Rick\u2019s journey is packed with iconic moments that have remained with fans to this day. Now, as we approach the\u00a0three-year anniversary\u00a0of\u00a0<\/p>\n Honestly, the entire pilot episode was amazing. However, if we had to pick one scene in the episode that just really stuck out, it would have to be Rick cautiously stepping out of the hospital into the deserted streets after being in a coma. Inside the hospital, he encountered his first glimpses of what horrors awaited. But nothing could have prepared him for the complete emptiness and silence of the world outside.<\/p>\n Rick walked out the hospital doors to see a bunch of dead bodies lying on the ground before actually seeing a walker with half of its body gone, crawling towards him. At that moment, the full scale of the apocalypse hit him, and the sheer terror of this new reality set in.<\/p>\n Who remembers this episode? It’s the season 4 finale, so it was expected that a lot would go down. However, the scene that most fans remember from this episode is the scene when Rick goes full-blown savage mode against Joe and his Claimers crew. It showed Rick\u2019s primal survival instincts and how far he will go to protect his family and friends. In a previous episode of the season, Rick had killed one of the Claimers’ members so Joe wanted revenge.<\/p>\n After tracking Rick, Michonne, and Carl down to a spot in the woods, Joe and his gang ambushed them. Daryl then suddenly appeared and tried to negotiate and offer himself as a replacement, claiming Rick, Michonne, and Carl are good people. But Joe rejected his offer and threatened the group with death and sexual violence. As one of the Claimers attempted to sexually assault Carl, that’s when Rick made his move by head-butting Joe, who was holding him at gunpoint.<\/p>\n A physical fight then broke out between the two before Rick got the upper hand and bit Joe\u2019s neck. He ripped out his carotid artery, causing him to bleed out. Rick then took things even further and began repeatedly stabbing the Claimers member who was trying to harm Carl to death.<\/p>\n This episode is iconic because it marks Rick’s farewell episode in the\u00a0beloved zombie series. The scene that stands out is when Rick detonates the bridge to stop the massive walker herd, putting himself directly in harm\u2019s way to save Alexandria and the other communities.<\/p>\n It was the ultimate culmination of everything Rick has ever been: a fearless leader, a protector, and a man willing to risk everything for the people he loves. In that moment, Rick embodied the very essence of heroism. And for a short moment, we were led to believe that he might be dead. But then we found out he survived, badly injured but alive, rescued by a mysterious helicopter and taken to the Civic Republic of Philadelphia.<\/p>\n You can stream all 11 seasons of\u00a0The Walking Dead\u00a0<\/em>on\u00a0Netflix right now.<\/p>\n Karen Huger has been found guilty on nearly all counts after being charged with a DUI in Maryland in March.<\/p>\n \u201cAlthough we are disappointed in the jury\u2019s verdict, we of course respect their decision and appreciate their time hearing our case,” the Real Housewives of Potomac star’s attorney, A. Scott Bolden, tells PEOPLE exclusively in a statement.<\/p>\n Bolden, a partner at Reed Smith law firm adds, “We continue to reserve Mrs. Huger\u2019s right to an appeal and intend to fully pursue justice on her behalf. We appreciate your support and prayers for Mrs. Huger and her family at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n After the March 19 incident, Huger, 61, was charged with a DUI and DWI, negligently driving a vehicle in a careless and imprudent manner endangering property, life, and person, as well as recklessly driving a vehicle in wanton and willful disregard for the safety of persons and property.<\/p>\n Astrid Stawiarz\/Getty<\/p>\n Other charges include failure to control vehicle speed on the highway to avoid a collision, driving a vehicle in excess of reasonable and prudent speed on the highway, driving a vehicle on the highway with suspended registration, and failure to notify administration of change of address within 30 days.<\/p>\n She was found guilty on all charges except reckless driving, her rep tells PEOPLE. The reality star is scheduled to be sentenced on Jan. 29.<\/p>\n A spokesperson for the Montgomery County Police Department\u00a0confirmed\u00a0to PEOPLE on March 20 that Huger had been involved in\u00a0a single-vehicle collision in Potomac. Law enforcement said the television personality crossed a median and struck multiple street signs but was not injured at the time of the crash.<\/p>\n Authorities also reportedly told\u00a0TMZ\u00a0\u2014 who was first to report the news \u2014 that Huger was allegedly driving in an “aggressive manner” and very fast before the collision.<\/p>\n At the time of the incident, she was not arrested, however, she received several citations.<\/p>\n During Huger’s first day in court on Tuesday, Dec. 17, witnesses described what they noticed, with one man stating that Huger’s car allegedly smelled like alcohol, per\u00a0Fox 5 DC. A volunteer EMT who responded to the scene said Huger did not want treatment and “swayed” when trying to step into the ambulance. Inside the vehicle, the EMT said Huger allegedly told them to “f— off” and “go f— yourselves” several times.<\/p>\n getty<\/p>\n Minutes later she complimented a female firefighter, telling her, “You’re so beautiful,” the EMT said.<\/p>\n The jury also saw bodycam footage on Tuesday, where one officer was seen telling Huger she was “hammered,” a claim she called “bulls—” in the footage.<\/p>\n Huger broke her silence on the incident in a statement to\u00a0TMZ\u00a0on March 20. The reality star, whose\u00a0parents died\u00a0within seven months of each other in 2017, said she was experiencing a moment of grief the evening of the crash.<\/p>\n “With the passing of my Beloved Mother, Grief comes and goes in waves, and with Mother’s Day approaching it has felt more like a tsunami,” she said. “Last night I met a girlfriend for dinner, we talked and brought up some very emotionally sensitive topics. I was crying on my way home and saw a car heading right for me.”<\/p>\n She continued, “I swerved to avoid the head-on collision, hit the divider, and then a tree. I’m hurt, bruised up a bit, but so grateful I am alive! I did receive citations, one of which was unrelated to the incident which is understandable, but what was most surprising is that the car that almost hit me just drove away!”<\/p>\n Huger concluded by reminding fans to “understate your emotional state” before getting behind the wheel, crediting her mother, whom she called her “Guardian Angel,” and her seatbelt for saving her life.<\/p>\n Huger’s arrest is a central storyline in season 9 of\u00a0The Real Housewives of Potomac,\u00a0<\/em>which airs Sundays on Bravo at 8 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What would\u00a0The Walking Dead\u00a0have\u00a0been without\u00a0Rick Grimes?
