I wonder if the governor will make it to the next season? I'm hoping, no, because he's one creepy SOB. Zombie heads in fish tanks? Come on!  |

I don't know if the Governor will be a continuing character after this season, but I won't miss him if he is gone. It seems that Tyreese and his people will be drawn into the conflict and I would like to see more of them. Was that a torture chamber that Milton and Andrea were viewing in one of the clips?  6 more hours until viewing time. |

Anti, it almost looked like one of those horse carriers that hook onto the back of trucks. Guess we'll find out for sure tonight. I wonder if Milt is going to survive. He's awfully prissy and sure seems abnormally clean for someone living during a year + of the zombie apocolypse. |

Just started watching the episode. What a great tease with the flashback at the beginning. Thought Michonne was gonna spill the beans (is that what they were eating?) about her walkers, but she didn't . . . yet.
How thoughtful of The Governor to be preparing a room for her.

Inviso....At the end...Andrea does not seem to have her arms or legs confined. There seems to be some kind of contraption on her mouth. Was she bitten?...and is the Governor waiting for her to turn?

I looked again, and you are right, Timmy, she doesn't seem to be restrained, but I could be wrong. I think she's got a gag in her mouth to prevent her from making any noise.

While a somewhat thrilling episode, it felt like 54 minutes of lead-up to seeing Andrea trussed up in Phillip's torture chair.
Two questions: A kick-ass like Andrea can't bite Phillip's hand covering her mouth when she's just yards from salvation (not to mention his being outnumbered by folks at the prison)? Did I not notice his holding a weapon on her?
Just how did he secret her into that torture chamber with no one seeing him drive up?
Oh, one more question.....does anyone else but me think it was Milt who torched the walkers in the pit and the horse trailer?
Only 2 episodes left in this season. I wonder if Andrea will survive? I have conflicting feelings about her.

Inviso...There is a rather convincing photo of Merle as a zombie on the net right now. It is not just a stock type head shot that was doctored...it seems to have been taken on the set.

I have conflicting feelings about her. Definitely Milt.  It seems to me that he might also be Andrea's only hope for a rescue. |

Didn't think of that. I wonder if old Milt is finally "growing a pair?" It seems as though he's increasingly troubled by Phillip's behavior. Although, if he had let Andrea shoot him the first time they saw him in his torture chamber, we wouldn't have to have this discussion.
Sonder what Tyrese and his group are going to finally do?

The Governor figured out it was Milton who torched the zombie pit.
When he asked Tyreese where he got the gas, Tyreese didn't know what The Governor was talking about. That was the purpose of the question being asked in that manner.
The Governor pretty well knew it was Milton then, and his subsequent conversation with Milt settled it for him.

I was surprised the episode focused on Governor and Andrea, but it was exciting to see them try to outwit each other. This episode supports the tag line "Fight the dead. Fear the living!" The Governor was smart enough to collect the guns from people he no longer trusted and Andrea was smart enough to hold onto a knife.
My favorite scene was Andrea opening the door and letting the walkers overpower Governor. I did not expect her to do that and she seemed self-satisfied when she did it. For the sake of believability, let's say Andrea was wrapped in a tarp and Governor refused to answer any questions about what he was carrying.
The bad feelings between Tyreese and the other guy put them in a dangerous situation and the Governor can use them against each other.
All of this time, I thought the two walkers Michonne had were people that she loved. I guess not! I wanted her to reveal her relationship with them.

Although Andrea is not my favorite character, I never wanted anything like this to happen to her. The Governor restrained her with the cuffs that are attached to the chair. I am wondering if he planned to torture her before she fed him to the walkers or if he planned to just recapture her. When Milton prevented Andrea from shooting the Governor, my initial reaction was he did it for self-preservation. A gunshot would have drawn attention and both he and Andrea would have been blamed. ![]() ![]() |

All of this time, I thought the two walkers Michonne had were people that she loved. I guess not! I wanted her to reveal her relationship with them. That was a great tease, and made all of the comic book readers wonder if they were going in a different direction with the story we saw there about Michonne's walkers, and her relation to them. I am the kind of person who the suspense of an enlogated chase, such as the one we saw in the warehouse between The Governor and Andrea just does not work. They bore me, and in almost cases I fast-forward through them. I didn't in this case, and I'm glad I didn't. The final scene in the warehouse and Andrea's capture within sight of the prison wouldn't have been nearly as powerful without the time we spent with her narrowly escaping him, and possibly ending him in the warehouse. They did a great job, because I never saw that Andrea would end up in the torture room. (I know a lot of people are probably happy to see her there.) All I can say is, when Michonne sees it, she's gonna open up a can of whupass like no one's ever seen. ![]() |

Although many parts of the chase were, indeed, suspenseful, the fact that the governor was able to escape from that s--tload of walkers and walk away unhurt was beyond believing. Also, his showing up EXACTLY where Andrea came out (nearly) of the brush and managed to flatten her to the ground seemingly without a fight or (?) a weapon, also seemed a little thin. Still trying to figure out how he got her back to the truck and into his torture chamber without being seen by ANYONE. Ah well, because it's such an inventive show, I'm willing to cut it a little slack......but not for the last two episodes of the season! I'm already running the cast through my head wondering who will survive and who isn't going to make it! |
