OH NO! THE ETHANOL IS LEAKING OUT OF THE TRUCK IT IS LOST. EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE CONTAINERS WE COULD PLACE UNDER THE HOLES TO CAPTURE IT.

This entire episode (and show) has been a series of incomprehensible decisions that only make sense if you think about the plot backwards.

How the really should have killed off Martha was to drive her to suicide as Morgan and the others repeatedly called it ‘anti-free’

‘Everybody! She spiked the water with anti-free!’
‘Anti-free?! Oh poo poo, she poisoned us!’

Dorie is one smooth muthafucka. I wish when he'd said that sunshine line, it had cut to Strand 20 feet away, having overheard John, muttering under his breath "drat, you suave bastard, even I couldn't come up with a line that good."

Pretty sure even with 100 bullet holes, if that tanker was even half full it would have taken hours to drain. They would have had plenty of time to stick a bucket under those holes.

Also it probably goes without saying, but beer probably wouldn't do anything for antifreeze poisoning...it would have to be hard liquor. It should have been Strand who saved the day.

The thing about dirt woman is that she could have been an effective villain if she started out innocent, incorporated herself into the group, and then subtly began to play them against one another with the overall goal being that when society ends you can't depend on anyone being there to save you.

But no, instead we get a person who uses zombies attached to sticks which apparently is this universe's version of a WMD.

I think we were supposed to be like Morgan, tensely wondering if he could save her and turn her back. But the problem was, the audience saw she was psycho and would never be made good. Even if he brought her back to the group, we would always see her as a snake getting ready to strike. She was too far gone to be good--she poisoned 1000 bottles of water on the hopes it would kill people.

All season long we had seen people who hated each other come to accept and like each other, people who were antagonists become friends--Alycia and June, everyone and the kid, the truckers and Morgan. But the difference was that none of those people were legitimately bad.

poo poo, even in the last couple eps of TWD there were times where you thought Rick and Carl might be able to get Negan to turn around. There was zero chance with this lady.

Turning the light on the darkest places, you and I know we got to face this now. We got to face this now.

The thing that bugged me is that there was no reason she should have been able to beat any of these people single handedly. She had a god drat zombie on a stick. Who gives a poo poo? Bash the zombie then bash her. Morgan ran through what, 20 zombies in 10 seconds? Give me a break.

She sucked and the story line sucked.

Combine her with the Vulture's ideas and yeah it'd have worked better. "Being part of a group trying to establish yourself is futile, all groups fall apart." So she join the group, start to tear it down, then when things stop going her way she gets more and more brazen in what she tries to pull. Just when it seems like the group is about to fall apart they pull themselves back together against her. Keeps a lot of the themes while making them less totally idiotic. Still dumb and crazy, but a person breaking up a settlement so that smaller groups break off and survive instead of imploding is something that approaches reasoning at least.

In my mind, he went back to El Bazar to get his face wound patched up, now he runs the place and performs every Wednesday night!

El Salvidad comes back he has a new family, spends all his time as a conflict negotiator, and never speaks Spanish.

Because this show deserves better now than being sandwiched in the hell that is The Walking Dead Season 7 thread. It's a different animal than it's origins and zigs everywhere the main show za.. delivers a slow motion eye montage followed by a monologue.

It's just as bad as if not worse than the original.

The episodes about Garret Dillahunt trying to get off the island and his friend trying to get drunk were legit good I thought

I also love what's her name. The beer obsessed woman. She could read the phone book and I'd watch it.
