    Father Gabriel. ;)

    I don't think it's Morgan hiding in the bushes. On the Talking Dead after the premiere, they pointed out that when Morgan finds the "No Sanctuary" sign, there's a lot of vegetation grown around it compared to when Rick made it. So several weeks to months have passed in between. The timeline doesn't fit.

    We will see Morgan again. But probably not just yet.

    Father Gabriel looks hispanic to me for some reason.

    Anyway, I don't think he sticks around with the group too long, regardless of how it plays out in the comics. He really adds nothing of use to them, other than bringing them to a place for them to stay.
    If they stick around at the church for a while longer, I fully expect the herd in the school to break through the windows and make their way to the church.

    I can't believe what happened with that plane crash. Who thought Rick would go out like that?


    :huh:

    She smiled because Noah got away.

    We don't know what happened to Carol yet. But we now know it wasn't her Daryl told to "come out."

    My guess is it's Noah.

    I loved the ending, and loved how it referenced something said earlier in the episode.

    I'm referring to when Noah explained to Beth that Dawn and company purposely bring in the weak people that they find, but leave the stronger ones who could oppose them. I'm assuming that when they found Carol, they looked at her and assumed she was one of the weak ones that they could control. With Carol and Beth working together, Dawn is in for one big surprise about just how not weak Carol is.

    You know, I really wanted to know what happened to Beth, but this episode just kind of fell flat for me. It didn't really explain anything honestly. We don't know the timeline here and how long she was out. I hate to say it, but this episode seemed like filler to me. I'm sure they are using this to set up something else, but I can't figure what yet.

    If what you suspect is true about Carol, are they in for a rude awakening :butcher:

    When Eugene stabbed the walker, and it showed him pulling the knife out of his first kill, it lookled like he was removing it from it's back. and not its head. I have watched this twice and it looked that way both times to me.:shrug:

    That's correct. They even touched on it on TTD. The actor even joked that it was really only an assist as all he did was hold it up long enough for Tara to finish it off.

    I didn't watch the TTD this week. Did they touch on the slaughterhouse? I know my eyes suck, but the only way I even knew it was a slaughterhouse was by having story sync going during TWD. I couldn't tell, were there a whole lot of walkers there?

    Yeah, biggest herd yet. It was hard to make out what they were showing. I could barely tell they were walkers.

    I thought Tyreese and some others saw a herd that size once? They were driving and stopped when they saw it, I think? It was a big herd for sure.

    You know, I've often wondered if anyone in this show actually knows precisely where they are? We know Abaraham had a purpose and getting to DC, but we've never seen any inkling from anyone else on trying to actually get somewhere. Are they just wandering around Georgia somewhere? Why not have a goal of some place to go? We really haven't seen them with an actual plan since the end of Season One at the CDC.
    I'd try to figure out where they could go for a secure area, or at least somewhere that hasn't been thought of for more supplies. Where that is I don't know though.

    I enjoyed this episode. I normally don't like character-centric episodes too much, but this one I thought worked quite well. We got to see a little more into Carol's mindset, and what happened to her after her banishment.
    I'm not sure I agree with Noah's tactics when he ambushed them. I think he would have been better off just trying to pal around with C&D, then just outright taking their weapons. I don't know how long he was in the hospital, but he apparently isn't too good with a weapon either. I found it kind of amusing how pissed Daryl looked when he saw Noah leaving his bolt stuck into the walker. I don't know how many bolts Daryl has, but he treats them like treasure.
    Only two episodes left. Does Abraham's group now double back towards the church? Do they launch a full out assault on the Hospital, or just break in to get Beth out? And, will we even have any interaction with the Hospital before the hiatus?

    Thats a by product of TWD world they live in, no trust.

    I think everyone will regroup at the church, then go kick the crap out of the people at the hospital. They don't know who they are messing with, they hack you up in a church without blinking an eye :lolol:

    Assuming the group does go back to the Hospital and take care of business, I wonder what they do. Do they make the Hospital their new base of operations? It seems like since the last time they were actually in the city, the Walkers have kind of migrated away. Yes, there's still some there obviously, but not the heards like there were before. Would it make sense to go back to the city? Or are they safer out in the sticks somewhere?

    Decent episode, but unfortunately I saw some of what happened coming. I knew where Gabriel was going. And I think I know what He's going to do ultimately too. I also knew the cop with Sasha wasn't on the level.
    One question I had though was what happened to the third cop that went after Daryl? Did they take him with Rick to go to the hospital?

    Nah. I think the the bald guy and the lady cop are just bound somewhere else.

    Sasha was incredibly naive. Was there ANYONE who didn't see that coming? If it turns out Rick bought what he was selling too, I'm going to be upset.

    Rosita can go fishing with me any time. :D
