    So why did he kill the military guys? A power thing? Why else would he? I'm trying to think of other reasons. Is it because Woodbury people may NOT be infected? He knew the military guys were cuz two turned right away. He said something about "we will rise again." Maybe he is trying to keep a non-infected population alive and separated from the others. Any ideas?

    Good thought...we wondered why they killed them too!

    And whats with all the talk about Darryl? Is he special or something?

    michonne's angry scowl is so over the top my wife and I were laughing every time the camera went on her!
    :lol:
    no shit... It was like watching an SNL skit. she's a caricature. That's all she did the whole episode! Every time someone said something, she'd turn all dramatically and give them the sideways scowl :lol:


    I know I come to this thread bitching about stupid shit every week....this week is no different.
    You can't tell me Merle and a bunch of yokels could sneak up that close to a group of heavily armed, trained military dudes, some of whom (if I remember correctly) were perched up on trucks, in knee-high grass, without anyone seeing them.

    I was thinking the same thing. I had a hard time believing that the ragtag Governor's group could sneak up on the military guys like that.

    Merle and the bunch are well-rested, healthy, etc after living in a regular walker-free environment for months. The army guys were not. Big difference.

    Well rested or not, they are trained soldiers. To say that one of the many on watch didn't see anything suspicious in their surroundings...not so sure I buy that. Keep in mind, to be that perfectly surrounded by that many people would have taken some pretty in depth planning. They'd have to know the area perfectly then deploy a perfect strategy to be completely covert in order to get into position.

    Either way, the show has a ton of "Wait a minute..." moments in it, but it's still fun to watch! The previews for next week look great!

    Thanks for answering the question re. whose head that was _ I didn't recognize it as the pilot. Although I should have seen that coming, because when The Governor et al came back from slaughtering the soldiers, he stood on the back of the truck and said something about the pilot "clinging to life." And when we last saw the pilot, he was looking pretty good, all things considered.

    RIP pilot. :(

    As for the tea, I'm not sure we've thoroughly discussed it. The Governor drank the tea when he was in the morgue/lab with the squirrelly scientist. And then The Governor and the squirrelly scientist both drank (or faked drinking) it at breakfast with Andrea and Michonne.

    Maybe it's got some benefit?

    When you watch that last scene, see if you think the heads are actually alive. I thought there was one that looked like it was gasping, like a fish out of water.

    :shock:

    watched the show last night. I was referring to Talking Dead. And no, I didn't see one that looked like it was gasping!

    I want to say it was maybe the second or third row as they panned up, toward the center as I recall.

    And Michonne's pets were there, too.

    I feel bad about the pilot...

  • they were alive

    actually, now that you say that, that makes sense. if everyone turns when they die, and one could surmise that zombies can't drown, then I suppose they were "alive".
