I have to admit I don't know why Rick was so weird this episode. He seemed weirdly pacifistic and recalcitrant (not caring a gun around, acting kind of soporific) and I can't think of any revelation at the end of S3 that would've done this to him? Carl popping that one kid then owning Rick when confronted about it?

Hershels gardening lessons.

I think a CD player is much more likely than an iPod, no computer and relying on a charge cord for power in a zombie post-apocalypse would be a hassle.

CDs and batteries on the other hand, easily looted from electronic or general stores. I bet the store with the roof zombies would've had both! It had wine, televisions and toys of not-zombies.

They found a fully stocked liquor store. Think about that, the world is going to poo poo but the hardcore alcoholics didnt even have time to loot a liquor store? They probably find batteries all over..

I really liked this episode, and I think they're going to introduce faster zombies/ make the zombies more of a threat which I think is going to be really cool. I also liked that the prison is now more of a "lving" place than before, they've had time to make lifestock plant food etc.. How long do people think has past?

The producer on Talking Dead said 6-7 months. Also- the sneak peak of next week they showed on TD with the mysterious person with a flashlight feeding the fence walkers during the night, I bet its Carl, at the beginning of the episode Rick busted him saying he stays up all night reading comics by flashlight :staredog:

But to what end?

Him not wanting to use a gun is part of his [believable] guilt for all the hard core killing he's done.

That's how I read it at least.

He turned into a non-violent pacifist gardener in search of redemption during the offseason.

But at least Daryl ascended to his rightful place as leader :v:

The subplot with the weird lady was oddly enthralling for me. I don't know what it says about Rick going forward, but I enjoyed it

I liked this part too, probably because it was messed up on so many levels. You start off thinking the chick is a zombie, then she might be a talking zombie, then you get this eerie foreboding about who or whats back at the camp and then theres the bag.

She probably re-animated too since pacifist doesn't wanna carry a gun anymore Rick just walked away from the whole scene. Would be awesome if she shows up somewhere with hubby head :v:

There was one thing in the episode that didn't go where I expected.

When Rick found the gun buried I thought it was going to be in the hand of a buried body, which would then start moving.

I just took it as a corny metaphor that his violent, paranoid, schizophrenic and psychotic self was gonna get resurfaced..

I hope so too. He thinks of Carl as a kid brother, so hopefully he thinks of Michonne as a sibling too. It'd be weird seeing them hook up.

I always got the impression that he had boned Carol in the 6-7 month interim of the last season, which is understandable since options were limited at the time. Clearly the most fertile female is now Beth. Get on it Daryl :colbert:

This scene with the two zombies in the woods is interesting, I'm not sure necessarily what's going on here. Is it just simply that Carl is too wary when he doesn't need to be, or is it that Herschel is too trusting right?

I thought what Hershel said was kinda dumb: "You dont need to.."

The world has ended and when you die you become undead- even if some kinda cure is ever discovered, those guys already died once. A cure wouldnt do anything to 'restore them to normal life.' So yeah- eventually you do need to kill every single last one in order to set the world aright.

I took it to mean that he didn't need to, as the bear trap was chained down.

Yeah probably but no zombie flick has ever dealt with the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse. Living in a world filled with the dead. I think Land of the Dead sorta did, but if you dont want to literally live in a prison for the rest of your life, eventually every single last zombie needs to be killed as one can infect another and two can make four, etc.

So the whole world needs to be 'cleansed' sooner or later. Or at least the state of Georgia :sun:

After rewatching TD last night I've come to the conclusion that Manson was trolling the show/Hardwick by assuming the role of 'drug-addled' rock star.

For all we know they were semi-conscious due to fever, and I'm assuming they were dead while they were dragged out. I think there's a difference between bleeding out and still leaking blood after you are dead.

There was a blood pool on the pillow- assuming they were face/ear stabbed and then dragged off the beds and out the door.

I have an admittedly dumb idea. Rick says ''is there anything you wouldn't do for these people?'' and she says ''yes.''

What if they're going with ''Carol is willing to take the blame for it'', rather than, you know, she actually did it. Because they absolutely must find the killer or it will tear them apart (well, at least Tyrese), so if it's impossible to find the killer, someone has to take the blame.

Not suggesting that's what Rick asks her, just that they might go with that. Carol would be covering for the little girl. When I saw the scene with Rick looking at the handprint, he puts his hands on top of it. I don't think he notices it's a left hand, I think he notices it's a small hand. So he thinks who might have taken action to save the people in the prison and ends up with Carol as a likely suspect.

I still dont get why the little girl Lizzie or whatever would all of a sudden become soo concerned about sickness in the prison that she offs those 2 people, when she couldnt even off her own Dad who was about to turn. And why would Carol do it? To contain the infection.. but everyone is still getting sick anyways!

Obviously Carl did it, he was feeding the walkers at the fence because the fence feeder had a flashlight. Rick mentions Carls flashlight in the first episode. Carl is upset about the girls at the fence naming the walkers and not 'taking them seriously'. Feeds them to make them herd up and crash the fence.

Rick notices child-sized bloody handprint on the door, realizes Carl did it. Asks Carol about 'what she would do' for the people as a way to rationalize in his mind what he must do to protect his son.

Internet mystery solved.

I always thought it was a little dumb they decided to make it so the TV show universe was wholly unfamiliar with the concept of zombies. It seems like such a natural thing to tell a story about that they'd have more than an impromptu name for it when it really happened.

Glenn and T Dogg started off calling them "Geeks" in ep1. Presumably from "geeking" or "tweaking." I cant remember how they arrived at "Walkers" for the final label.

That wasn't a problem because he was wasting carrying space or whatever. He nearly got himself and maybe the rest of them killed because he refused to let go of a bag that only had booze in it. Especially after his earlier confession, that's a pretty stupid thing to do.

He told Daryl hes having internal battles with booze when the rest of them are busy being survivors too (in the liquor store). And then went and pulled the bag thing..
