not too bad of a mid-season finale.

I'll admit that the episode was better than the others.

Here is my heartache with the show.

Gas.  For some reason the gasoline is still good...

Going rogue.  Why is it that every time there is a plan that no one sticks to it?  Letting the walkers in the Saviors place was just dumb...

Eugene.  He is now the person everyone loves to hate.  He chooses now to start becoming a drunk?  Is he really that much of a coward to not help out Rick and crew?

Best episode of the season. But thats like saying I won the tallest Oompa Loompa contest.

The gas thing doesn't really bother me, I know there's going to be things we have to just give the show. This is one of them. Besides, I think gas can stay good a long time if stored in a gas reserve tanks, and not just siphon out of abandoned cars.

I hate the going roque thing too. Make a plan and stick with it people.

Eugene I think is going to be the one to help take down the Saviors in the end. But, if he didn't help them to begin with they'd still be trapped, and less people would have been killed in this war. So I still hope he dies, that maybe one of Rick's crew kills him when its all done.

When did Carl get bit? He wasn't near a walker all episode.

Gas does not have a long shelf life, it loses octane.  If you plan on storing gas it should be of higher octane like 93.

Agreed.

Eugene quickly rose to the top of people I hate on the show toppling Gabriel from the top spot.

Carl got bit while helping the Indian guy.  Never thought that we'd lose him...

I didn;t think we'd lose him either. Still not 100% certain we will.
I didn't even think about that scene, that was from last week right?cI guess that was earlier that day, just didn't seem like it being frmo a week ago.
I wouldn't put it passed TWD to do something stupid like say he has built up immunity being such a young kid at the start or something. The way they played back and forth with Glenn dying.
I don't watch Talking Dead, but it records the first 3-4 minutes at the end of the show, and they made a big announcement that Carl will die. Instead of asking what will happen to Carl. Seems like the more they play with the idea of someone dying, the less likely they will die.

i was wondering about the gas as well

The whole Carl setting off smoke/fire bombs and then mysteriously disappearing into the sewer ninja turtle style right before the saviors could grab him irritated me. WTH did the saviors think he went? They walked right over the sewer.

I was a little confused with this episode to tell you the truth. I was not fully paying attention and everything seemed to be happening at night. It was kind of hard to tell what was going on. Did Carl or the Saviors blow up Alexandria? Carl... right? How exactly did Eugene get the walkers away from the Saviors? How did Dwight not bleed out after being shot in the arm? He couldn't even pick up a gun and then all of a sudden he is in the sewer and he is fine. Was Father Gabriel not infected?? I thought he was in the process of turning from all those walker guts and/or bite he may have suffered? Now he seems to be getting better. WTH was Eugene doing with that airplane? I could watch it again and figure it out on my own, but at this point I find it more entertaining to speculate.

Radio was on that RC plane and he was going to lead the walkers away with it.

Still dont understand that as i thought dwight shot it down as it left the side of the building?  Saviors blew up A., everybody is a superhero in this show....Why the hell did it take Rick so long to get back?

When did Carl Get bitten by a walker?  I missed that.    I only remember one walker in the finale, but don't think it attacked Carl or anything,  but do Apparently he's gone.  Did he die in the comics?  I think I read his contract is up (he actually cut his hair)

Carrrrrrrrrrol doesn't die in the comics and he got bitten helping the Indian guy.

He's a gonner for sure.

almost forgot it returns tonight.

A few more hours!

With any luck, we won't have to see him in any more episodes as flashbacks. He just got to be a super annoying character to me. 

I watched the first 30 minutes last night...watched him give the letters to Rick. Had to put my daughter to bed after that. Maybe I'll watch the rest tonight?? My comic friend just told me Maggie just had a super cool scene in the latest book but this is her last season on the show (due to issues with pay)... I asked him did he think it would really continue? He thinks it still has another 3-4 seasons left... really??
