It wasn't so much character development perhaps as it was character revelation. Carol in the scene before the credits, unshaken by the past & the seeming normalcy of that office, still completely immersed in the current reality. We know for sure, she isn't going to regress and, honestly, that she has no need to regress. They told more about the character in that one scene than 8 pages of dialogue (which is usually what they resort to).
I'm not a huge fan of the character, not a big fan of the actress ... but I completely loved how that was written.

it was also shot really well. I don't often notice stuff like that, but there were a few scenes that just looked great - Carol looking out of the window with her full reflection looking back at her, the two of them laying back on the bed, that one shot of Daryl in the car that looked liked it was drawn from a comic book. Lots of nice little touches like that.
I'm totally with JimGA on this. For a while, I thought this was going to be my favorite episode of all time but after a great start it really fizzled, starting with the van scene.
