 It was something we wanted to wrap up to a certain extent . It 's a disservice to Rick 's character to make him look like he 's completely clueless . But this isn 't really a resolution per se . It makes things a little bit more tense , moving into this next episode . Seeing Rick interact with Shane will have an extra level of tension because now the audience has one up on Shane as opposed to one up on Rick . It ’ s going to be fun waiting for the other shoe to drop , when Rick may or may not confront Shane with this information .
