OT: Walking Dead (spoilers)

[scarletrat]

seemed pretty predictable mid-season finale. now in Feb Rick will gather the other camps in a secret diabolical ploy to take down Negan...I don't think it is as simple as killing Negan, since everyone is "Negan"--as Michone(sp?) saw, there are too many of them...

I assume this will mean Carole and Morgan will get off their self-loathing and help...Carole was bad-ass at Terminus...and that Dwight will offer "inside help" or no resistance to eventually taking Negan down...

I wonder if the weapons they use to eventually take down Negan will come from the all-women camp near the beach...they may be the hardest to convince...

and yes, good they didn't kill off Rosalita (sp)...

Agree on the role of the womens camp.. since they kill peopl eon site.. might be hard to get an audience.

As for the war... I think Neegan/Saviors survive this season.. like the Governor.. too big/bad to be featured in only one season.. though I suppose we began to see them last season..

..I kinda wonder if the wolves will be back.. remember the W on Enids hand.. am I remembering that wrongly?.. in and case.. what role did the wolves really play if the real big-bads were the saviors?

I started watching the show about a year ago,but missed some episodes and watched others on reruns so I am always jumping around time wise. There was one episode that I never found out what happened. Daryl was on a motorcycle and a couple others were in a car driving very slowly with a ZILLION walkers behind them. Then a horn went off in Alexandria as they were being attacked. Some of the walkers left the herd and I have no idea what happened after that because I had to leave. Never saw the episode again. Anyone remember the episode I am talking about ? What happened to all the walkers ?

Ah yeh, I remember that one. darryl went on for a ways, got to a crest where there were lots of old cow farms. He had gotten the herd of zombies to follow him again. At one point he almost ran out of gas, but he got it go again. He took them down this road amongst the cow pastures into a valley. When he got to this valley they was this huge place. darryl led them into this place. It looked like an old football stadium. A solitary zombie in a trench coat was there, with black tortoise shell glasses. The zombies all went in, must been over 100k in the place. Darryl slammed the gate, and left them all there.

Here is a link to the scene.

Any thoughts on who the person with the boot is?

Any thoughts on who the person with the boot is?

Specific person, no - but I have an idea from the comics storyline. Remember how the hints about the Wolves popped up long before they entered the picture (and then really quickly went away after one attack... that was strange). I bet this person won't really appear until the end of the season.

Bullet casings + Eugene's new factory = Ammo. For those who don't know, ammunition can be reloaded as long as you have casings. My guess is that the women's village has a lot of firearms but not much ammo. Remember, the girl who was helping Tara ran out of ammo. It seemed that her magazine was not fully loaded. Maybe Alexandria cuts a deal with them? BTW, this is pure speculation on my part as I haven't read the comics.

Euguene was supposedly a chemist so he can mix gunpowder by getting the right components. You can create a mold to make the bullet and you can find lead in car batteries. The most important component of a bullet is the firing pin which I don't believe Eugene can make

Here's the story arc of that herd scene..

The gang is in Alexandria.. one a supplies run / scouting mission they find a quarry FULL of zombies with a truck blocking the ramp out.. the sound of all those walkers attracts more who fall into the quarry.. the enemy of the day, the Wolves, seem to be the ones who use zombies (I mean walkers) creatively.. in traps.. this is their supply.

Rick sees that the truck might fall into the quarry pit, allowing the mob to escape and threaten Alexandria. He sells the town on the idea of controlling this process by allowing the zombies to get out.. the herd.. and then use the bulk of the townspeople to lead the walkers away.. down the road.. following the car and chopper... the rest of the herd wranglers are in the woods along the road killing any zombies who peel off.. keeping the herd on track

meanwhile, some townspeople are back in Alexandria guarding against the Wolves... the Wolves, meanwhile, use a tractor-trailer to bash the gate.. but the drive gets show and they hit the wall instead.. driver/zombie laying n the horn... allowing wolves to get into Alexandria where the remaining townspeople.. mainly Carol, Maggie and (Michael from Lost.. sorry..always forget his name).

The horn sound breaks up the herd and half head toward that sound.. Alexandria.

Fun ensues as some of the wranglers head toward Alexandria to help and have to deal with a slew of zombies getting in the way. Glenn almost bites it... cliffhanger.. is Glenn dead? Not until he meets Lucille.

I still don't know what the Wolves meant by "You're not supposed to be here".. and that the attack was supposed to help them. Don't get it...

The firing pin is part of the gun. You're probably referring to the primer. They can be handmade, it's not a complex process but it's rather painstaking.

There's rumors of another group that isn't in the comics.

I thought the chunky lesbian was dead. This episode confused me.

The chunky lesbian was the doctor who got shot through the eye with an arrow. The woman who got shot in this episode was in charge of the supplies.

A couple of potential spoilers involving cast members attaining other jobs... which probably means their characters will eventually be killed-off from The Walking Dead.
