proximoception6.4 rewatched continued, plus some 6.5 talk:
But Eastman also fails to let Morgan know what he himself did, which means he hasn't completely accepted who he was. If he'd let Morgan know, Morgan would have realized that Eastman was a damaged person who healed himself, a killer who stopped being a killer. If Morgan had known this then he might no have been thrown back into the wrong sort of "here" in the clearing.
The wall motif functions here too: uncovered windows, unlocked doors. The fence is just a noise trap, really. It doesn't keep them out.
Why lock the gun box? To not kill himself? Or because he didn't trust Morgan, thus his pacifism wasn't complete? Self-distrust because not accepting who he had been meant he didn't trust/know who he was? One must be as patient and forgiving with oneself as with others?
So walls again. Between here and here. Which eventually mean you see no heaven, just hell clear before you.
But isn't Eastman also choosing to let Morgan see the better version of himself? What's the difference?

Says he won't kill and then kills zombies. Related? And still eats chocolate and milk, so not vegan - related? Related to his slight-seeming but highly significant ethical lapses.
Wolf goes from "maybe" to "I'll kill all of you" - in part because of Morgan's reactions? Or to test Morgan, to see if he'd truly trust him like Eastman had? Morgan DOES admit what he did - he tells his whole story, unlike Eastman had. His problem isn't nonacceptance of his own past, precisely, but not being fully convinced evil doesn't exist: the one Eastman had initially had, and technically died having.
In Always Accountable, in the clearing scene is the shot of D and the pilot supposed to be reminiscent of him and Beth in Still? The dead couple in the house are similar. The fire starters realize they killed them, and the woman (?) bites their innocent (Beth-like?) friend. Karma.
D asks for something in return for the insulin, thus buys into the local sin, however slightly (and kind of implausibly). Karmically, he loses his crossbow and motorcycle, his most prized belongings. Fitting pattern of 6.4? He does ask them to join him but only after seeing their regret. Conditional trust is not trust? Is his moment of mind change related to Aaron's seeing him lead his people to the barn? He sees helping them as stupid but does it anyway, so he's a little ahead of himself, like Rick saving Spencer though not as bad.
Returning to the pilot lets him find the fuel truck ... So has he faced Beth's death or something? They're a bit reminiscent of her killer, the forest people: overreacting from fear, compromising themselves for safety and regretting it ... And being at last corrupted by their compromise, like her. But does he even know all that stuff about her?
Both D and Abraham face zombie versions of ... Themselves? A soldier, a motorcyclist. The forest fire is as heavy handed and indiscriminate as the hostage taking of D.
The helmet protected the brain, like the plastic melted into them protects the fried couple - out of sight out of mind?
Facing himself? Beth? gives D the fuel to go on? That the others were denied because of the very people they (I guess?) killed? But what is there to face? I'm missing something. Something about the auto insurance? Vehicle one gets replaced by vehicle two because of ... Accountability? Deserving it? Or was deserting Sadha and Abraham his sin, returning his insurance, Karmically?
