    Magic cure? No. But it may help. They're still going to have to ride it out. Like Herschel said, the flu doesn't kill you. The symptoms do. If he can mitigate the symptoms even a little, maybe he can increase their odds of surviving. Elder berry tea is said to reduce the duration of your sickness (symptoms). I guess it's a convenient thing they just happen to be in season. ;)

    My old medical days cropped up though and made me bristle when he said they needed antibiotics. That does NOTHING for a virus. True, they might need them anyway for other reasons. But it won't help this plague. (And considering most they'd find are 18 months old or older, most won't be quite as effective anyway)

    He's not Chinese. He's Korean! ;) (and no way he goes out to the flu)

    Herschel's tea will work well enough to keep some people around. Once all the expendable Woodburry folks have died, they'll get a handle on the sickness.

    I was happy to see Tyrese finally snap and increase his body count. And it's only a matter of time before Carl returns to his badass self.

    I'm not quite sure why Rick and Carol are going on a run though if they sent the others to the clinic, as seen in next weeks episode previews.

    I was right about Carol, that's one cold *****. She better hope Tyree doesn't make it back!

    Good call! I wonder if Rick will cover for her. Also, what was up with the swarm of walkers? I believe that's more than we've ever seen in one place.

    Just another herd. We know they herd. We've never really seen a good scope of larger herds before.

    Imagine the size of a herd around NYC.

    Maybe there was something that brought the heard there? Is this place supposed to be a large population center? Or just a coincidence like the attack on the farm?

    They're not too far from Macon which is a larger population area. Still not too far from Atlanta either. And herds roam. It's been well over a year since the start of the zombie apocalypse. Hell, the herd could be from Miami and just roamed there for all we know.

    They went to get some medicine for the sick folks in the cell block. Carol told the girl she's looking after they were going for food. I dunno if that was just to tell her something to make her less afraid.

    It was Jasper. He said something about tracking and Jasper but I don't remember what.

    I can't believe what transpired between Rick and Carol

    Aye. After last week, I thought Rick was going to be forced to have a trial and sentence her to death. I think we'll see her again.

    I wouldn't rule it out, but Carol didn't seem bitter toward Rick. At this point I can't see her betraying them, but who knows.

    Not sure. I'm guessing probably not though, to either.

    Not sure. I mostly thought that those two characters were there mostly to show that Carol was continuing to make bad decisions.

    Funny thing is, I don't think Carol is the one making bad decisions. Rick needs to man up. Carl knows it, Carol knows it. Whatever frame of mind he's been in hasn't helped the situation at all. While he might not ever be the leader again, he needs to take a more active role and find his set of balls again.

    I do wonder how those two managed to survive a year and a half in the ZA though. You would have thought they got picked off a long time ago.

    And thinking about this, they said that some of their food supply from cell block D was destroyed. Why? Did that happen in the melee? Did they abandon cell block D? Have they completely secured the prison yet? Remember that big honkin hole Tyrese's group came in through last season?

    I don't know, pretty dismal though, must put a pretty big damper on any hope you have.

    Don't see it, she was trying to protect them, can't see her then coming back to kill them.

    I agree and I think it's the girl who was naming the zombies that is feeding them.

    I kind of thought Carol did that in hopes of them getting killed. 2 less mouths to feed, 2 less people to worry about, she's that kind of cold now.

    Carol's balls were made of solid steel and ice cold. They clinked when she walked. :lolol:
