Sunday's episode of "The Walking Dead" gave us an unexpected backstory to The Whisperer leading, Alpha (Samantha Morten). 

As her daughter, Lydia (Cassady McClincy) recounted her past to Henry and Daryl and the Whisperers made their way to the Hilltop, there were a few subtle nods to the comics, one connection to the "Breaking Bad" finale, and some heartbreaking moments from "TWD's" past.

The start of the episode shows us its Day 23 into the zombie apocalypse.

For those keeping track, the start of season nine, episode 10 takes place at the same time as the season two premiere of "Fear The Walking Dead" when Strand and Madison's family take to the water on his yacht.

Of course, who's to say Alpha's "Day 23" is the same as Madison's "Day 23" on "Fear TWD."

Lydia's parents sing her "Lydia, the Tattooed Lady." This isn't the first AMC show where we've heard this song.

The song was also Todd's ringtone for his boss, and crush, Lydia, on the "Breaking Bad" finale. Walter White (Bryan Cranston) picks the phone up as it's ringing from Todd's dead corpse (seen above).

Daryl talks to Lydia about abusive fathers. He's speaking from experience.

"Some dads come up with any excuse just to beat the s--- out of their kids. Maybe they're drunk, maybe they can't get drunk. Belts are good," Daryl tells Lydia.

Daryl's father was an abusive drunk who was introduced in 2013's "TWD" game, "Survival Instinct."
