Andrew. They show him leading the zombies into the prison at the start of the episode.

attn comic dudesis the hedd aquarium in the comics, and is there some purpose to it?I don't really get why he'd put all these heads in there unless it's some kind of sinister thinktank, or something.

I think i would give this a 1.5 out of 5 as far as how big of a deal it is, so feel free to check it because i don't think it will ruin anything for you in the show.

It was in the comics, but didn't really serve much of a purpose beside letting youn know he is f'd up, and that some of his guys know he has the heads in there and that they leave it alone. i think there is a line in the comic about how there is no more TV, so he uses this

thx -- that's pretty much exactly what I figured it was, but it seems kind of contrived.I'm not really a nitpicking continuity freak, but I think it lacks internal logic -- I won't go so far as to label it lazy writing, but let's just say it's not very creative writing.I think this whole show has steadily slid downhill since the darabont departure, even though I guess all this recent stuff is taken directly from the source material.they're just not selling it.I think that's the kind of drop in that works fine for a couple panels in a comic, but is pretty weak for a final shot dramatic reveal on tv.

Yeah, It was a little Brad-Pitt-at-the-end-of-Se7en. Not terrible, but I wouldn't write another scene for him that called for it. The kid is irredeemable. I like him brooding and silent and preferably off screen. Pretty good episode overall. I'd rather have that annoying klaxon over Lori any day, glad she's gone.

Common sense usually is the order of the day with zombie shows.

 

[Shrugs]

Think maybe the writers heard the criticism about last seasons dismally slow pace and stepped it up? See this is how I imagine living in a zombie apocalyptic world, not that down on the farm with Herschel & the girls BS we wasted a season on last year.

Yes, it's far faster. But I think your vision of reality is far more Hollywood. I actually think you would find a place like the farm and have some fairly boring months here and there.

exactly. I am sure you have your fast exciting moments, and then plenty of moments like on the farm where a whole hell of a lot isn't happening. And expecting any show to keep this pace is just silly, the only show that is comparable with exciting changed like this is Game of Thrones. It's great, but I am guessing we have some slow down next episode, which is good too

Homeland has had more wow moments this season than those two shows combined in their run.

I thought this episode was very poor.

1) They seem to have a quota now for minimum number of zombies per episode, and it's getting tiresome. The whole let's-have-the-prison-get-overrun-even-though-they-just-cleared-it-out device was extremely lazy.

2) I guess they have to have exactly one black guy in the group. No more, no less.

3) Obviously this could have been a really powerful episode. Instead they pissed it away.

Disagree strongly. I'm not sure how you can think this was a poor episode. If anyone thought that episode sucked, then it's time to go into your DVR menu and hit "cancel series".1. The amount of zombies was perfect. They haven't cleared the prison, they are still a threat. We saw the leadup to the "overrun" and it worked well for this situation.

2. We saw T-dog die as a hero, and new guy make a choice to prove himself. This is just looking for things to complain about.

3. It was powerful. Carl blowing his mom away? Rick knowing what his son had to do? Rick showing that he really did care for her? A new life literally ripped out of it's mother? T-Dog saving Carol when he knew he was dead anyway? And through the whole thing we see the Governor manipulating Andrea as Michonne figures out what the real deal is.

You can argue whether or not Rick and Carl's acting was top notch at the end, but calling it a poor episode is just ridiculous.

Given the material they had to work with (Lori's death and the interpersonal conflict with the prisoner's and Rick's group), this could have been really good if the writers hadn't allowed the zombies to get in the way. When every single episode features 20 minutes of "OMG ZOMBIES!!1!" it loses its punch after a while and starts to detract from the other aspects of the show. That's why everything else feels rushed; they had to squeeze Lori's labor and death into literally about 15 minutes.

Obviously I'm in the minority on this one, but this episode was just very badly paced. They need to dramatically scale back the zombies for a while (how many consecutive episodes have we now had featuring all-out zombie battles?) and work more on the interpersonal drama. That's especially true when you're doing epsiodes that kill off main characters and introduce new ones.

The last scene was ####### powerful. As was the birth/death scene. Epic all around.

 

[packersfan]

Amazing episode. Absolutely amazing.

Not surprised T-Dogg bought it. He was always a peripheral character so it made sense that at some point he'd be killed off. I did not see Lori going out this soon, however. That one completely caught me my surprise. A total kick in the emotional stones for Rick, who's clinging to what little humanity he still has left. It'll be very interesting to see where he goes from here.

It feels like every minute at the prison is off-the-charts intense. They've done an amazing job with that location and storyline.

I respect Michonne's sense of friendship but if I was her, I'd tell Andrea to F off and head out of town. But I think she's staying because she knows if she does leave Andrea behind it won't end well for her.

What's impressive to me is that we're only through four episodes (one quarter of the season) and already so much has happened. The producers weren't lying when they said this season would be intense.

 

[dhockster]

I have two things to say:

-NOT T-DAWWWGGGGGGGGG!!!!

-Maggie is a bat ash for ripping Lori's baby out of her.

 

[Mario Kart]

They killed off the best eye candy in this series last night in a dramatic way. Carl and his soon-to-be-girlfriend are going to have to raise the baby after everyone else dies. That girl is going to be all over Carl now.

Maybe Carl and the governor are mirror images of each other. One had to turn this way knowing what he previously knew about life and is going nuts. And, the other is living this way out of necessity and going a little loopy.

What tremendous acting last night. Top notch by all even the zombies.

 

[Copeman]

So who let the walkers into the prison? Was it that prisoner Rick had supposedly left for dead a few episodes ago? I thought he died.

Also, Andrea seems like a different character this season. At the end of last season she was turning into kind of a bad###, but now she seems so.....not so bad###.....

 

[jamny]

I thought it was really well done how Rick and Lori shared a moment and the camera panned to seeing all hell break loose. The whole birth/death was very well done and the kid did a good job in a tough acting spot but I just didn't think the guy playing Rick did a good job at the end.

Doesn't take away from an awesome episode though.

Glen had the kill of the week slicing the top of that zombies head off. Or maybe Daryl when he stabbed straight down into the skull.

Third best, tops. Skinny and beady-eyed. Looked Republican. Why is the girl gonna be all over a 12-year-old?

Also, Andrea seems like a different character this season.

She got herself a strong masculine partner over the winter. She's ready to be a little wifey now.

At the end of last season she was turning into kind of a bad###, but now she seems so.....not so bad###.....

It was the prisoner. We only saw him in a bad situation with all the zombies outside. Andrea is a follower. Dale, then Shane, then Michonne, now the Governor. She was never strong. Remember she wanted to stay in the CDC shutdown to die.All I don't understand is that the prisoner if successful would have been closed into a room on his own in a prison rampant with zombies. I guess pure revenge could have been enough for him but he could have given a little thought to escape afterwards.

 

[Worm]

Right when you think they are about to safely settle down in the prison for a while, have a baby, and live as one big happy family... BLAM-O!

The world has changed. You can't EVER relax.

 

[packersfan]

Also, Andrea seems like a different character this season. At the end of last season she was turning into kind of a bad###, but now she seems so.....not so bad###.....

I think she's emotionally spent after 7-8 months in the woods near death. She also has shown a character trait of being attracted to dark, mysterious guys and she clearly has it bad for Philip and he's working it perfectly. The question is why - what does he see with Andrea that makes him want to keep her around? Easy to see with Michonne. She could be a valuable asset if he could turn her. We also saw some signs that Merle's relationship with the Governor may not be on the firmest of grounds and it's being tested now that the Governor doesn't want him going off in search of Daryl. That's one of the things I like about Merle's character. There's a level of intensity in every scene he's in because you never know what he's thinking or will do (and Michael Rooker's a damn good actor).

No way he lets them leave. They will track them far enough way so the sounds don't reach the camp and kill them.

I agree but he could always just kill them both and be done with it. I can see why he wouldn't want to get rid of Michonne just yet until he finds out more about her. Andrea's a different story unless there is a shade of humanity (or horniness) driving him here.Oh, at Merle having called Andrea a rug muncher.

I didn't ##### about that at all in season 2. I thought that season was paced pretty well. The reason why the last couple of episodes in season 2 were so intense is because they built up to them. This season is starting to feel like a video game.

 

[roadkill1292]

Why doesn't the Governor want to accumulate people? Seventy-three people is just enough to dominate until the next big horde overruns them and makes it all moot. I'd keep adding people and moving the walls outward, collect and organize until I was ready to take the offensive but then I'm not a power-mad psycho, either.

[Copeman]

I'm kinda gonna miss T-Dogg. :(

 

[Buckna]

Absolutely outstanding episode. Best of the series so far. Loved the callback to last season with Rick's speech to Carl about growing up. Eager to see the fallout such as what happened to Carol. My guess is she's hiding in a cell somewhere trying to deal with seeing T-Dog sacrifice himself for her. Darryl will have to track her down.

Andrea continues to be a moron but probably inadvertantly saved their lives by not wanting to leave. I agree with those who think the Govenor wouldn't just let them be on their merry way, he'd have his men take them outside the walls and put a bullet in the back of their head. I'm thinking that may yet still happen, but Merle will save them so they can show him the way to look for his brother.

My only nitpick would be how the heck did the other prisoner survive so long? I think one of the characters said to Herschel that they had spent about a week cleaning up the inner yard since we last saw them.
