re: The Walking Dead Season 3 Episode 7 "When the Dead Come Knocking"

I think the old dude "mr coleman" was the scientists dad. He said his parents were killed when he was young but the picture he showed to the old man was just one of the daughter and not the son. Afterwards he had a tough time with Andrea killing mr coleman even though he had already examined zombies earlier.

Maybe--I missed the pictures and didn't really catch most of the dialog about the repetition of names/faces/pictures.

I thought he was just having a hard time with the death scene because he realized how quickly things can get out of his control (and how close he came to almost getting bit) as Mr. Coleman turned and lunged at him almost immediately. Since he had never seen the transformation, he could have been shocked about how quickly it happened.

So, what is the deal? In order to get in good with Rick you have to kill someone?

Oscar killed the prisoner. Michonne killed the hiding guy....

I had the same issues with the car, the hermit, and the stupidity of the "scientist". Also didn't understand why Michonne didn't just say her name and explain why she's a friendly. Not like they were going to run a background check on her... and I would want them to know ASAP that I didn't off their friends and take the formula to get in the gates without much trouble.

If they go in throught the front gate I'm going to shake my head. Michonne ventured all around that place without being noticed so it can't be too hard to sneak into. She knows where to go.

Look forward to the crap hitting the fan. These episodes have been going by much more quickly than last years. Much better season overall.

One of the problems I had with the episode was Michonne's interaction with Rick's group.

I would think that after spending all that time time Andrea's chatty arse, Michonne would have heard countless times about Rick and his crew.

Seems like putting 2 and 2 together would have been easy for Michonne

someone help me out b/c i feel like they've (the scientist/doctor guy especially)mentioned this at some point:
if a zombie has no way to bite (teeth removed) does he still try to bite/feed? i thought i remember that once you remove their teeth they become docile. did i dream this?

correct. They discuss this after seeing Michonne's "slaves".

My prediction for the midseason finale:




Stand-off featuring:
Rick and Mayor - guns facing each other
Glenn and Merle - guns facing each other
Daryll and Andrea - guns facing each other
Michonne - caught in the middle

Rick puts down gun. Mayor then points gun at Daryll and pulls trigger. Merle jumps in front of Daryll and takes the bullet for his brother. All guns now pointing at Mayor but no one fires just yet. Andrea looks at Michonne as if to say, "don't do it," Michonne performs a helicopter move with her sword taking off the Mayor's head.

The towns people begin to pour into the streets wondering what is happening. Andrea tells Rick that he must address the crowd and tell them what happened, why the killed the mayor and the other people. That it is the only way they will understand.

Rick agrees. As he begins to climb onto the wall to address the crowd, Walkers start pouring through the holes that Rick and his crew made in the town's defenses. They attempt to fight the walkers and Rick really tries to save the towns people. But, they are too weak mentally to handle the challenge. Rick and crew desert the town and it's people leaving most of them to die.

They get back to the prison and find that the men the mayor sent in have been killed, but that the crew is no where to be found...

The End.

Who is the mayor? Is that a new character?

Actually an older character who preceded the Governor.
