In re-watching last night's episode I noticed something I never caught the first time around. Immediately after Daryl and Rick start dragging Jesus away (after he got knocked out by the truck sliding into the river) there was a still shot of a spider in the middle of its web. Jesus knowing which house was Rick's? There would have been a lot of recon work (by many people not one) for Jesus to have known that. Again, Captain Obvious here but the still shot with the spider/web was a give away... He's not Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leader was the one captured, rest were killed.. At least that was what I took from his conversation with the Doc about how in hindsight he should have watched the town a little longer before attacking I didn't take away that that was definitively the entire Wolf pack, or that W-guy was their leader. still very well could be wolves roaming around out there with an as of yet unseen leader.

They are basically alone in the world now, so they shouldn't have to feel like they have to rush anything. Not returning victoriously with a loaded truck full of supplies and continuing onwards with their run is extremely dumb, but again, this is a show and Rick has proven to be dumb many times over.

By that I mean that there are so few humans around them at any generic moment that it is easy to forget that you can just randomly stumble into one while you are looting some random place. They just basically went 2 months without encountering other people, expanding their town, and setting up their farms. They do not exactly live in the mecca of humanity. So that is why I can easily see them taking their time in any given place scavenging and if you find a untouched honey hole, take the time to explore it totally and get every last bit of juice from it.
