Ah, I missed that. He and Dawn weren't getting along, so maybe he left her there in her office on purpose to possibly kill her.

Is the general consensus here that this episode was an abortion?

If not, I need to find a new place to talk about this show.

This ep was awful.

Even if it is setting up Carol faking to be brought in and she takes the place down with her bottle rockets, it still wasn't worth an hour.


I agree. Even my wife, who rarely watches the show, was questioning it - she couldn't figure it out either.

Maybe she bled out because of her nub.

She saw which one it was when he unlocked the door to the elevator bringing that first body out.

She removed the sutures and bled out. No one killed her - she did it herself.

It was a bit confusing, but one rewatch after the talking dead and it all made sense.

Basically, dawn is a crazy ocd bitch in charge... she can't control her rapey police guys... she tries to keep the peace cause she thinks there is some outside saviour and kinda lets the rapey stuff go... beth see's through everthing... tries to escape but gets caught...

My guess is... daryl and noah show up... get re-enforcements... go back and try to get beth and carol.

I do think maybe the black dude is the guy Daryl has out in the woods. Now all of them will go back into Hotlanta to get Beth and Carol.

I think that Carol can then construct some killer weapon using tiny guinea pig bones and IV lines! She will have them all wiped out by the time the gang gets there.

So has it been established as to how the cops actually "capture" the patients? Do you they knock them out first, and then take them to the hospital and claim they "saved" them?

By the way, this is how I expect the next few episodes to go down:

Agree. Partial shade is necessary.

Here's a question: what's the timeline from the time Beth disappeared?

Keep in mind: Daryl lost Beth, met the claimers, found Rick and co., went to Terminus, broke out of Terminus and found the church, and took off looking for Beth. So I would guess it's been a little over a week. Right?

It's hard to tell how long Beth was unconscious. I'm guessing at LEAST that long because Beth's story isn't back to the present just yet.

I was being half sarcastic/half serious. It always seems like they are taking forever to do something, and then Kirkman says "Oh, they were on the farm for about 3 weeks" or something.

I didn't dislike this episode quite as much as a lot of people seem to have. But I wasn't crazy about it either.

On the one hand, it was kinda good to just see a place which was bright and well lighted after all that time in the woods. And to see people actually clean after watching greasy Rick.

But just once I'd like to see them run into a set up with a group that is not basically evil at the core. I don't think they've run across a place like that since the nursing home or maybe Hershell's farm.

It seems like they just felt like they had to do an episode on systemic rape in the post apocalyptic world. They kind of touched on it in flashbacks with what happened to the Terminus people.

Almost seems like they're checking off a list - Dictatorship, check. Cannibalism, check. Rape, check.

Seriously? Beth is pretty boring, and the control freak officeress wasn't much better.

Really? Maybe for you. I thought It was good but not the best by far. 


No actually it's the consensus of pretty much all of the walking dead fans that season 4 and 1 were the best two seasons while season 2 (the farm) and season 3 (the governor) were pretty bad... Now season 2 and 3 had a couple decent episodes but not many
