When The Walking Dead returns in February with the midseason premiere "Nebraska," you can bet things aren't going to be pretty. After all, the midseason finale "Pretty Much Dead Already" ended with Shane leading the survivors in a massacre of the zombies in Hershel's barn. Hershel looked on in horror as his former family members and friends were shot down, and even Shane looked pretty uncomfortable as Rick had to step forward and dispatch a zombified Sophia, who had been in Hershel's barn as well.

AMC has unleashed a sneak peek from the upcoming episode, which airs in February. In the sneak peek, Hershel has gotten over his shell-shock as he declares that he wants Rick and the rest of his group (including a pretty scared-looking Glenn) off his land immediately. Rick blames Shane for this, and rightfully so: "I was handling it!" Rick tells his best friend.

Shane rebukes this, stating that Hershel probably knew about Sophia while they were off searching for her. He also points out that Rick's hopeless searching for Sophia, despite everyone believing she was dead, is why Rick is "just as deluded" as Hershel.

Those are strong words. As star Sarah Wayne Callies (Lori) hinted, though, this is probably just the tip of the rift between Rick and Shane -- things are only going to get worse. After tonight's stellar midseason finale, I can't wait to see how things play out when The Walking Dead returns from its winter hiatus.
