Zombie trail of tears

 

[TenTimes]

Thought the plans were going to show Michonne the sewer out of Alexandria that Maggie is apparently trying to keep secret.

come again?

 

[jamny]

I'm really hanging by a thread with this show. Not sure how much more I can take. I'm just in it for the zombie stuff now.

come again?

Thought she would have mentioned it. Or was the manhole outside the walls?

Either way, the exit point was swarmed with walkers.................although I would think that would have been a nice spot to make a lot of noise to draw them away.

What distracted the walkers over the course of a day or so??? I wanna know!!!! Lazy writers.

I guess i am just ok using my imagination for some things. Was it a squirrel? A can blowing in the wind? One of 1000 other random things? Jesus who cares.

The show isnt 8 hours long every week. I dont need to actually SEE the wind blow a can, or a squirrel crack a nut.

Lazy writing though. The show should be 100 hours a week. Lazy actors, lazy producers, lazy network execs.

Why waste any time showing how Glenn survived. Should have him just show up inside the walls with balloons tied to his dong.

Do you really need to see more? He crawled under, shot the walkers coming after him which sealed him in, and waited (at least a full day, probably more the way he was going after water afterwards).

There was nothing more to show.

Balloons on the dong would be cool though. I bet Z nation does it next week.

[renesauz]

What was Enid's plan with the balloons? I missed what she said.

The whole balloon thing was a head scratcher. Let me tie some balloons on my backpack and make myself a walking advertisement for zombie chow.Does anyone know the correlation between the balloons and Glenn? Why did Maggie automatically know it was Glenn? Was his second job in a balloon store or was it just Maggie's wishful thinking?

The balloons were the leftover final stage markers for the zombie trail of tears. Obviously whatever is keeping the gas good keeps helium from leaking out of cheap party balloons as well.

Maggie was able to eliminate Abraham as a possible balloon suspect because he obviously would have sucked the helium out of them all and giggled himself silly saying "dolphin smooth" and "motherdick".

We have a helium tank at work that is over 20 years old. The helium is still good and we use it on random occasions. Since helium is an element, it doesn't break down. As long as the tank is in good condition and doesn't have a leak, it'll last for a very, very long time.

What does that have to do with helium leaking out of the balloons? Lazy reading.

Maybe the fact that she was sitting AT THE TANK actually FILLING those balloons in the scene? He might have read lazily, but he saw the scene properly and you didn't

Yeah, lol.

Sorry, was lazy writing on my part.

He responded regarding the balloons left over from the zombie trail of tears, and about helium leaking out of cheap party balloons. No mention of helium tank.

Too much lazy reading going on

 

[Mario Kart]

And, how long were the balloons there? Couldn't have been more than a couple days. Balloons are fine after a couple of days. Some of you act like two weeks went by or something.

When Glenn found the guy on the fence, didn't look he had been eaten much by that horde of walkers supposedly devouring him.

Ok, but where were all the dead bodies that were around him? Michonne and the others were shooting/stabbing them trying to help the guy at first. They should have put him out of his misery but didn't.

Who moved all those bodies so the only one on the fence was the guy who wrote his wife the note? Is this part of the lazy writing folks are talking about?

 

[Franknbeans]

Are we to really believe the entire town is surrounded and no way out?

Why wouldn't we believe this?

how big is the circumference of the fence? A mile? I have no idea how big the town is, but it seems to be decent size.

Thats my point. Also what is keeping the walkers from just turning away like they did with Glenn in the alley? So much of this show just doesnt make sense sometimes but holy hell I cannot get enough.

the incessant hammering by Rick. Give it a rest, Bob Vila.

 

[Jayrok]

Nicholas fell ontop of Glenn. That was Nicholas intestines. Glenn survives. At least thats what i hope.

I watched it again, theyre eating nicholas, not glenn. But unless something distracts that horde quick, theres hardly a way glenn could escape

I wouldn't mind one bit if they found a way for him to roll under the dumpster or hide in the zombie/Nicholas guts. Those ####ers just killed Glenn. Bring him back, right ####### now imo.

I'm calling it here. Glenn knocked up Maggie. That's why he'll "be back" in future episodes.

Rick's knife broke and he cut his hand, also could have been on the machete, but he wasn't bit. If he was we sure didn't see it, and he didn't seem overly concerned that it was a bite.

Did someone actually call Rick an F'n idiot for unloading the clip on those people? He just almost died from the other two guys and blew those others away before he had to scuffle again. Not sure that makes him an F'n idiot. My guess is he also did not anticipate the RV not starting. This happens a lot in shows/movies. Maybe they should try letting it run. Just sezzin.

Who knows if Glenn is dead or not. My guess is no because it looked like they were eating the other guy on top of him, and Glenn is a skinny dude and slipped under the dumpster, then something probably distracts the walkers. Yes people, they get distracted very easily and move on to the new distraction whether they are eating or not. I do also remember a commercial showing that dumpster in previews. So yeah, all real world common sense says he is dead, but I don't think he is.

If he IS dead, he should be. Why in God's name has he attached himself to the Nicholas idiot anyway? That is death worthy.

Props imo

Back when Nick tried to kill Glenn in the woods there were 4 or 5 walkers who fell on to Glenn while Nick escaped. Didn't think there was any way he'd get out of that, but he did. He's slippery that way, I guess.

Maybe he looks behind him at the container, while they are eating Nick's guts, and sees that it is up on legs and he can crawl backwards up under it. Who knows?

 

[pantherclub]

Why wasnt Nicolas a zombie?

Ughhhhh

Is that the one that drinks himself into a stupor every Sunday and then tries to watch a show where you need to ... well ... pay attention?

That would be me

Actually, go back and watch the scene. Michonne and the others didn't help him at all. I think we posted about it wondering why they didn't at least kill him. That said, he should have looked a lot worse.

 

[comfortably numb]

See ya comfortably numb. IK and moops you're the idiots

Ouch, that's pretty harsh.

 

[Godsbrother]

i know the Glenn thing is cheesy, and I don't care. I'm just glad he's alive.

+1

I am really sick of Glenn and Maggie though and one of those two have to die. I would prefer it to be Maggie because I can't stand her fake accent but I was okay if it was Glenn.

I was really disappointed he survived cause I think it would have been cool to have him walking outside of Alexandria as a zombie. Now that would have been an emotional scene. Instead we get the lame crawl under the dumpster routine.

I thought when Michonne was trying to get over the fence, the others were helping her by shooting or stabbing walkers that had her legs. Maybe I missed it.

Kill 'em all!

 

[dhockster]

I just figured out how the storyline is going to play out, and I am not happy.

Maggie has Glenn's baby and dies or gets killed. Rick and Glenn hook up as single dads and raise Judith and little Miyagi-san. Alexandria has a thriving gay community with Rick/Glenn, Adam/Adam's partner, Tara/Dr. Confidence.

 

[El Floppo]

I do the helium balloons for my kids a lot. that night, they're floating up at the ceiling- by the next morning their hovering just above the floor.

but caveat- I'm not using the premium grade balloons like they have in the ZA.

 

[Godsbrother]

Okay so we know the tower collapses and knocks down the wall allowing the walkers to get into Alexandria. So what do they do to stop the inflow?

Does Daryl/Abraham/Sasha come to save the day by using their truck to block the hole in the fence until it can be repaired?

 

[(HULK)]

what's up with the blueprints? Was there some revelation that I missed?

in the midst of her freakout/depression post hubby death/wolf invasion, deeana had her revelation that they needed to keep on keepin on... and immediately started sketching those.

Yeah I remember that, just making sure I didn't miss something else.

She's also great at finger-painting. Time to send Deanna out to pasture.

They were the lamest plans ever. I could've made them myself in 30 seconds.

 

[El Floppo]

ok- so it's been touched on by a couple of people recently, and probably already discussed...

Nicholas, the guy at the fence, et al- they have a swarm of zombies around them eating them. and yet, they're pretty much intact as dead people or zombies. I would think the zombie swarm eating them would... well... eat them.

I could see an individual zombie filling up on just the guts or something and then taking a nap. but a whole swarm? wouldn't expect much more than bones left. and considering the zombies' diamond crusted teeth that rip through muscle, skin and fat like nothing- I could see them gnawing the bones down to toothpicks. which would be useful to clean their diamond crusted teeth.

gas truck + rpg = something or other.

Man, some of you really need things spelled out for you. Answers don't have to come in the 42 minutes they are asked. Go watch CSI or Law and Order if that is your thing.

I would like a Criminal Minds version of Walking Dead... where several characters stand in a circle and explain everything in detail, each one speaking one or two thoughts in turn, and solve the whole problem in 30 seconds with the power of teamwork.

A non-lazy viewer might remember that there was a fence between the horde and the guy at said fence. That probably kept him from being completely consumed.

Plus, I'm sure Nicotero was just waiting to have an eyeball stick to a fence pole in a warped Christmas Story nod.

[(HULK)]

By the way, lots of people are going to die between next week and the mid-season premier when it comes back. Lots. That horde is going to end some lives.

Given that the show has replaced killing off black people with killing off hotties this year... I would expect the horde to rob of us of eye candy

I'm pretty lazy. but wasn't fence guy on the wrong side of the fence? like.. the one swarming with zombies, leading to him getting eaten while the rest of the crew got away.

eta: while the rest of the crew watched him get eaten, but couldn't offer a stick to the head.

No, he got grabbed through a gap in the fence.

My prediction for characters getting eaten this week:

1) Spencer -- he's lucky he wasn't eaten last week

2) Tobin - he'll be the first to be eaten this week as he tries to fix the wall

3) Porch **** Jr - he will die either attempting to kill or save Corrallll

4) Rosita - hottie that gets killed so Abraham is free to pursue Sasha

5) Gabriel or Eugene- characters have run their course and are expendable

Rosita finally had multiple sentences of dialogue in the last episode. This may not end well.

 

[packersfan]

And from a sheer hotness scale I can't see how anyone would want Maggie dead. Even if you don't like her character why would you want to stop looking at that every week?

She never wears anything revealing anymore and she is annoying as hell. I want to see her eaten by zombies (but first they rip her clothes off).

 

[Copeman]

I can live with Rosita being the eye candy. You kill both her AND Maggie off, then we might have a problem.

hmmm. wow.

I completely messed that one up in my head then. I thought they were all tyring to climb over the fence- he was the last one (and Michonne) trying to get over, and got grabbed by walkers and pulled down... on the wrong side. pretty dumb to get over to the right side of the fence and still get grabbed.
