I totally missed how close the gun was to Daryl because I was being admonishing New T-Dog for wasting the ammo and risking attracting more zombies, before reminding myself he's new to the group and to the mechanics of the post-zombiepoc world.

When Daryl, Carl and New T-Dog all show at the zombie together, New T-Dog's pistol was like 6 inches from Daryl's ear.<br /><br />With all the shooting the people are doing (especially now in a confined prison) and with none of the characters wearing ear protection you'd think this show would be called the Walking Deaf!

I can buy that. <br /><br /><i> He had said something about getting a car and going back to Woodbury, so I figured he was just looking for a car.</i><br /><br />That makes sense. For whatever reason, I interpreted Merle's comment about the car to mean they had driven out from Woodbury to a certain point, and that they just needed to walk back to it. Your explanation makes a lot more sense, now that I think about it. <br /><br />@Blam: <i>I'll let it slide on the condition that Merle dies a spectacular death later, preferably with a Korean man getting the assist and a black woman slicing his head off.</i><br /><br />Ha! I'll agree to those conditions as well.

"Would they dare pull a Sophia with Sophia's mother?" And Darryl's agony was so palpable.<br /><br /><i>one of those rare moments of the characters winning one that the show needs on occasion to keep things from getting too bleak </i><br /><br />Just as you say. Naturally the only straightforward couple in the prison group — Glen & Maggie, hope in the present / hope for the future — is about to have us all worried like hell. Triumph; tragedy; repeat.<br /><br /><i> I'm also glad Carol's alive because I'm hoping she'll be the reason Daryl sticks with the group and not his brother. </i><br /><br />Ditto.<br /><br /><i>On their own, each doesn't lead to the other, but in hindsight, they form a perfect chain of events </i> <br /><br />Well put.<br /><br /><i>Less well executed was Merle's continued hunt of Michonne after he killed "Neil" for suggesting...they continue hunting her.</i><br /><br />I didn't think that he <i>did</i> keep hunting her. He said something to "Neil" about picking up a ride, so I thought he happened upon Glen & Maggie while hitting town for a car to jack rather than looking for Michonne. It's just a small world. (In other words, now that I've read the comments, <i>"What Matt said."</i>)<br /><br /><i>You can do it when a zombie is advancing on you, but you can't do it when Merle is a couple feet away and not really moving? </i><br /><br />Ha!

That satisfied me enough to stop thinking about it.<br /><br />"<b>Less well executed was Merle's continued hunt of Michonne after he killed "Neil" for suggesting...they continue hunting her.</b>"<br /><br />I didn't think he was still trailing Michonne there. He had said something about getting a car and going back to Woodbury, so I figured he was just looking for a car. I could be wrong though. Also, why did he want a car in the first place after he had walked out to where he was? Maybe to get home before nightfall? But then why waste time looking for a car when you might not find one?<br /><br />Anyway, the point is: car.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14580725636327122073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-19394122483369369892012-11-20T11:42:01.777-06:002012-11-20T11:42:01.777-06:00@Sarah: And Carl is quickly becoming my second fav...@Sarah: <i>And Carl is quickly becoming my second favorite character after Daryl, which if you had told me i'd feel that way last season, i would've slapped you across the face. </i><br /><br />I know, right?

We're super excited about Michonne reaching the prison so soon, because pretty much that's what we've been waiting for since this season started.<br /> And Andrea is still boring and irritating as hell.
