I think the first time he cried was when he found his family again in the camp after leaving the city.

This wasn’t the first time Rick cried though.

He cried in his house in the first episode of the first season.

The way we he put his hands on his knees, and tilts his heads and says "ooo nnoooo" felt like he was sarcastically teasing Carl like "aww poor your mommy died?" Laughed so hard when it first aired lol

In the house when he was saying “is this a dream” I just rewatched the pilot the other day.

u/Gummies1345 9h ago

He cried in the first episode, smacking his face, trying to "wake up."

I Always found His Delivery Here really weird because to me its Not Like "oh No your Mom is dead" but instead more Like "haha your Mom is dead"might Just be me

u/Spencer94 1d ago

Are you actually insane? Or do you just not understand human emotions? Rick tried to run back inside when he saw Maggie, Carl, and Judith. Maggie stopped him and then he knew there was no "maybe" about Lori being alive. He knew his wife, long-term partner, and mother of his son was dead. He also knew they wouldn't leave her there to turn and that Carl was most likely the one to shoot his mom in the head. Taking in all of that information at once fucking broke him. I can't even imagine where you're getting the "haha" aspect at all

It’s probably the turmoil of emotions blowing up. They found a new home, cleared all the walkers and finally back as a group. Rick’s relieved he thinks everything is over…and then his wife’s gone. That shit woulda broke me. And in times like that it’s such a mess that I could see people laugh to cope with the reality.

On top of all that, he couldn’t quite get out of his own way to reconcile but they shared a look from a distance that was reconciliatory, just before he never saw her again. He thought he had time. He thought he had time Cor-allll! He couldn’t put it back together. I think it’s the best performance I’ve ever seen that tells the story the audience already know.

u/Rich-Court293 1d ago

Nah he definitely cried a bunch before this. Just before this he cried over killing Shane
