If she sees Rick as a threat to her power... I don't see any reason why she would bring him in, then name him constable. Just my take, but I think she is pretty honest and is trying to keep the town together - this doesn't mean she isn't a huge manipulator, she surely is, but I think she is trying to manipulate with the town's best interests in mind. I think there is a major external threat (the wolves?) and she knows her group can't handle them, so she brought in the badasses to protect them.

I think the other group (the wolves?) has been picking off their residents when they go on those supply runs? They might be at a loss on how the other group knows all their movements, not knowing there is a mole in their midst (that teenage girl).
It's obvious Alexandria is weak as far as defenses go. More specifically badass walker killers that can defend the place. It's obvious that there's a faction out there that have their eyes on the town and will eventually make a move to take the place over. To prevent this, Deanna needs Rick and his "family" badly so they can defend her community.
Personally I'd love to see the weak folk get cleared out and for Alexandria to become a full blown Ricktatorship.
Daryl has one foot out the door already. He's going to be the hero when sh!7 gets real.
Glenn is going to have his revenge on the pretty boy that's the leader of perimeter security.
Deanna (the head lady) will out Carol. Just like the poster above mentioned.
Aaron will repay his debt to Rick's group, for saving his boyfriend, at a pivotal moment.
Carl will get his first kiss from the spy girl that arrived a few month ago. Yay for him.

So any ideas about the missing gun?
I do like how they are "assimilating" into this new community and have the appearance of buying in while maintaining alertness and a level of skepticism. Though I feel Michone is going to do something stupid. It seems like she is the most willing to trust their new situation, but given her past interactions with the governor (having to convince Angelina Woodbury wasn't all it was cracked up to be) I would have suspected she would be the most hesitant to let her guard down.

My guess is the girl picked it up on one of her runs. Notice Carl followed her until she vanished but he came up on the house where Rick was. She must run through there periodically.
So basically the last of the population to survive would be in western North Dakota, and ultimately freeze to death.
This is a good guess. Daryl already has a "strike" against him for joining in on Glen's fight. He will be provoked/set up by Aiden, et al. Leader will want him tossed. Rick will have to agree. Daryl does not want to be there anyway.
But Daryl will end up showing up later this season to either warn them of an impending attack, or help save them last minute.
Carol is definitely playing everyone. She rocks.
I also think the teenage chick is bad news. Will end up befriending Carl, but double cross him somehow.
err:
Deanna mentioned 3 people she exiled that "didn't work out". I definitely think this will rear it's head and that these 3 are members of the Wolves.
Deanna recruited Rick and Co. to toughen up her town because she KNOWS these three are coming back with the Wolves. They know every weakness of the community and she needs outsiders to be her ace in the hole.
I'm torn on Enid. I don't think she's a spy as The Wolves are a group that would keep a little teenage girl around as a spy. I think they already know about Alexandria's defenses from having the exiles among them. Hell those exiles may be the founders of The Wolves. I think she's just a girl who doesn't trust the safety of Alexandria yet but who knows.
Jessie's husband Pete however, I think he will be an aggressor soon. He knows Jessie likes Rick and that will be a problem sooner than later. I also think that he might be a mole for The Wolves and might sell the town out when The Wolves are "at the door".
The **** will hit the fan soon. I doubt we have too many episodes of happy town living before that.

Re-watched it last night while actually paying attention. From the very beginning Carol was playing them. As soon as they surrendered their guns she started the act. She "struggled" to take her assault rifle over her head to make it look like she was a simpleton former homemaker. Really looking forward to how this comes into play.
She was also making a map later at night.
She's scouting the whole place with her inside position. Probably knows where all the weapons are, who lives where.
If the Ricktatorship has to take over they will have all the intel they need from Carol.
Also, best part of the episode was this:
BOOM! ***** goes down.
Followed by Daryl going honey badger on deputy dip **** right after.
That acting.... floppier than Marcus Smart.

Also, she will become friends with all the old people who are more than happy to gossip. She will probably try and find out about the history of the place and why those 3 people got kicked out.
Just saw a picture of the wall around Alexandria... Shouldn't the supports be on the inside? It's like it is created to keep stuff in.
