4.07 "Dead Weight" Poll/Discussion

[SoCal]

So we've seen in the last episode that the Governor is around and by himself at first. He's changed his name to Brian. Don't think that will fool the folks who know him, but he seems to have fit in with a group of women and child.

Looks like they run into some of his former Woodbury citizens. Something tells me they won't let him stay gentle and kind.

What do you think?

I am not complaining, but has the show been re-named to "The Walking One-Eyed Governor" show?

The strangers think "Brian" is weak, but if they disrespect him, they will quickly change their minds.

Agreed, AA. If they're going to spend two episodes with "the Governor," then I want at least one episode exploring where Carol went!

How do you turn your back on the Guv after seeing everything he's done?? STUPID MARTINEZ. I actually liked that guy I was hoping he'd stick around..

Me too! I think we deserve to see what Carol is doing to survive.

There is no redemption for Brian. The Governor is definitely back!

That was a strange scene when we saw the headless corpses that were tagged with signs depicting their transgressions. The man did not destroy the heads, but he made sure he shot himself in the head. Weird.

I thought the women had caused Brian to become mellower and Martinez thought so too. Then Martinez
…told Brian if the girl was not with him, he would have left him in the pit.
…told Brian he had to put his other friend down because he gave up.
…showed Brian the same setup for driving golf balls that the Governor had.

Suddenly, Brian turned into the Governor and I was shocked that he attacked Martinez. Then he fed him to the biters. That was cold blooded.

It is not clear to me who actually killed the people at the strangers’ camp. Brian walked back to the camp, but we did not see him kill them. However, not much time has passed.

The Governor was in a hurry to leave because he expected some fall-out, but the women were reluctant to leave. Did he return to the camp because of seeing the walkers in the mud pit? That was creepy.

After he killed the man’s brother, I do not fully comprehend how they can work together.

Now, it is time for the big show down between the Governor and the Prison. I think his first target will be Michonne.

Well, I guess we all should haven known the govenor wasn't dead and that "Brian" wouldn't last long in his soft and gentle incarnation.

I was surprised Martinez kept his secret and was so non watchful of his old buddy. He should have known better. But when the govenor fed him to the walkers in the pit?!? That showed what a cold blooded psychopathic bastard he really is.

That little girl won't be safe for long once the governor fully takes over the group.

I felt bad for Pete, but he was a weak leader. I'm sure he would have given up leader status had the governor not knifed him in the back.

So, the governor had aquariums full of heads in Woodbury. Is he now going to fill the lake with weighted down walkers?

I didn't quite get how/why Brian and the girls fled the camp and then came back. What was the deal with the walkers stuck in the muck?

Who killed all the members of that camp. How could they all have been killed so quietly that no one heard/saw anything.

Mitchell better watch his back.

Looks like the governor is aiming at Michonne in that last scene, but I guess we'll find out next week.
