Some of my coworkers said this one was boring. I did like it, but maybe a little back and forth between 2 groups would of been better. I'd say that I like Tara more than I did previously. I wonder if she will eventually cave and give Oceanside up for the guns or somehow talk them into joining the fight, It'll be interesting to see.

Spoiler:

if next week follows the books at all, it'll be a tough one. We should see how Dwight got burned.

Why did she run when she was taking them back? Seemed really random, unless I missed something...

I think once she decided not to stay, she could tell they were really bringing her out to kill her, not to let her go. Didn't one of them pull a gun on her before she really ran for it?

[cosmichobo]

Yes, when they heard the walker, one of the "escort" pulled a knife, but really looked like she was looking to use it on Tara rather than the walker... But I admit, when she ran, I was asking the same question at first.

I don't think it was a boring episode. It's following the tempo of the season. That said - if I was in the editor's seat... Yes, I'd be blending these stories into 1 big arc rather than stand alones.

Pickle.. lol.

I was kinda hoping the dreadlocks guy would be sticking around... These Alexandrians all die off so quickly! I mean - who is left that has actually been established? Deanna's son. Inventory Girl.

Twas a lot of effort to go to for us not to see them again... but I'm thinking not for a while... maybe even not til next season. Time is becoming really tricky in this series!



Oh! And - was it just my shiny new JVC tv, or was there a Lot of times this EP where you couldn't see anything but black screen???

I almost forgot about Tara

[cosmichobo]

LOL... And... wouldn't have lost any sleep if we never saw her again?

I think she's got a lot of potential - as this episode has shown - though I think historically she's been given pretty annoying storylines. Her sexuality has kind of felt a bit forced too - like, let's tick a box for minorities... rather than just a fluid relationship.

[Linda06]

Yeah some of her storylines has been annoying and her sexuality has felt forced a bit instead of fluid. Tara could be a good character if given a chance.

Talking of relationships, can they please stop the Rick/Michonne relationship please? I think it was much better when they were friends. I Love Michonne but hate this relationship

[cosmichobo]

I guess relationships will always "happen", even in post apocalyptic environments... At least they have really only manifested when the gang have been in moderately less stressful environs - ie when they've had reasonable shelter, and not on the run.

[Linda06]

I have no problem with relationshops happening, I just think Rick and Michonne worked better as just friends. Personally I don't think there's any romantic chemistry between them so it fels a little forced
