It's too late to ask for this by now, but I wish they had named the pilot "Day 1: Days Gone Bye", and followed that convention for the rest of the series.

When I saw the burned bodies, I initially thought that they'd dragged themselves outside and self-immolated to prevent another inside the fence attack. I'm glad Ty was like "who did this?!" because that's a pretty unlikely scenario. Unfortunately my money is on the combat medic since he's the only character (other than Carol) who has been deceitful this season.

You know, Ty saying "who did this" doesn't necessarily rule out that possibility. I find it incredibly unlikely, mostly because they would have screamed their loving heads off and run around if they weren't already dead or unconscious when set on fire. I think the combat medic is the most likely choice, which is why I think it's probably not him. I think maybe there's something to Rick using the gas can in a previous scene, but I also don't see how Rick does that, even if they are already dead. Like I said before, legitimately interesting mysteries where they aren't just laying on obviousness and giving you several possible options.

The blood marks on the floor looked like they were dragged out of there, not stepped/stumbled. I think this season so far is the best the show has been, I really hope they can keep this up.

There was blood on the pillow, which made me think their eyes had popped before they dragged themselves out. But again, that was just my weird initial reading on the scene, I'll be very surprised if it turns out to be a mercy suicide.

Little girl with the knife did it. Came up all innocent with a handful of posies, then slashed a throat and got lil' sis to help with the dragging. Its Carol's knife-sensei hubris arisen to bite her in the rear end.

Yeah while watching the scene I thought that Tyreese's girlfriend realized that she was dying/turning and dragged herself out before setting herself on fire, but the fact that there were two bodies and that they were just peacefully lying there kind of eliminates that chance and makes it obvious that someone killed and dragged them.

But still wouldn't make any more sense than out in the field. Of course them running simply wasn't the straw that broke, it was their refusal to listen to his dictatorship, not running from the prison. When the people, as a group stood up against him, that's why he broke. Killing them all in the field is no more realistic than somehow shooting them all in dark hallways in a prison. His guards, of course won't do crap because they're loyal cowards that just found out he managed to kill Merle, the supposed badass of all of them.

That's one thing the show is pretty poor at, getting information like that across. I never have this problem with any other show but watching this one I always end up interpreting events in a way the writers did not intend. I know I'm not the only one because frequently come up with the same wrong interpretation in this thread or on Talking Dead.

I was really gonna pack it in after Season 3, even rewatching the entire thing on Netflix didn't help as much as rewatching Season 2 did. Glad I stuck around though, this season has been pretty great so far.

I think the scene was purposefully set up to make you think she'd gotten sick and died, bleeding from the eyes, but once Tyrese got into the hallway the sheer quantity of blood was too much. And the drag marks. It was fairly obvious the two cough-ers had been killed in their cells and dragged out and burned.

However I'd be a little surprised if any of the important/long tenured characters were responsible. If you narrow that down to people who would know about the sickness that leaves Bob, the other doctor (the children called him Dr. S and he's appeared on screen for like 2 minutes), and Sasha. I'm not sure if Sasha would murder her brother's girlfriend so signs are pointing to mysterious stranger Bob.

The fact he has alcoholic tendencies? That might come up again.

Well his lying about is a bit more telling about his character. Also during the "parachuting in of the 101st Zombie Airborne" he was more focused on his own preservation than what was happening to the group. Like instead of just calling out the group and giving a few weak tugs to get free he could have spent that extra energy on solving his own dilemma. This is reinforced by the fact that when he is finally pulled loose he doesn't bother to make sure the last person freeing him is also safe. Considering that he was a "combat medic" and would be familiar with the dynamics of working as a unit and making sure everyone got home alive. Finally we have Daryl finding this guy alone. He is a basket case and he wouldn't have made it this far into the zombie apocalypse without relying on some other group. Some other group that didn't make it because he either abandoned them or went straight crazy on them. Though it could be far simpler than that. After what happened in the convenience store and his own personal demons eating away at him he could feel compelled to "protect" the group. So he starts offing people who he deems dangerous to the group out guilt and self hate that transposes on others. But hey someone said it could be Carol and that would be a lot of fun to see her dive off into the deep end of being a total survival nut and Daryl having to put down his mother figure.

It's just that they've portrayed him as less-than-honest. Which is typically a tell that he's a distrustful character - but after last episodes' red herring Q&A about the airport statues I wonder if they're playing on expectations of predictable writing. The other indicator is that he was introduced as a new character and not immediately killed.

Sorry man but if there's a new guy on the show who isn't unceremoniously killed within a few episodes, especially when setting up a "troubled past" angle, I gotta suspect he's gonna be up to some poo poo. They didn't have Sasha be suspicious of him for nothing. Maybe he will be set up as the obvious answer and then it's actually somebody else but for now I'm sticking with my prediction that he did it.

I'm leaning towards it being the little girl feeding the zombies in a misguided attempt at "humanitarianism", because just the act of walking outside with a flashlight would be sufficient to draw zombie attention and put pressure on a specific area of the fence. The rat would be superfluous if that were the goal.
