Considering her origins, Carol's recent actions illustrate very well that she's "born again hard".

After tonight's episode - uh, yeah.  If I'd been that kid, I'd have probably *expletive deleted*it my pants.

Earlier in the episode I was thinking how they're doing a good job with the story line.  Just enough walkers.  Too many and it'd just be another action show that would go downhill fast.

So I wonder if Sasha is a secret partner in the triad? I'm trying to figure out if she left for good, or just took a walk with three boxes of ammo. If she left for good, she could be camping out on the outside as cover fire when the others make their escape from Stepford City.

I could see that with his "getting soft" scenes this week possibly building up to him losing his edge and getting bit. They've got a lot of red shirts in the group now that could die, but they do seem to kill off at least one major character at the end of every season.

Stating the obvious, but Rick's behavior is getting more Governor-ish by the episode.  First he talks of possibly taking over Alexandria by force, then the inappropriate behavior towards Jessie, then reaching for his backup piece at the end of the episode.

Reiterating what others have said about Carol:  she can be downright scary when she wants to.

The "A" hand stamp was interesting since "A" is the title of the episode where the group is captured by the Termites and held captive in the boxcar.  Could be a coincidence.  Or . . .

The "W" was also interesting. One possible explanation is the leader's son, but I'm thinking it might be something more ominous.

It might be how the Alexandrians brand the exiles before expelling them, but they don't come across as that medieval.  Probably done by some bad people we haven't met yet. 

And why "W"?  "Wrong"?  "Wicked"? "Washington"?  They voted for George W. Bush?

I think there might be riots if that happens...

Me, I suspect that the gay guy who approached Darryl about being a recruiter is going to end up on the losing end of things.

Don't they call the zombies "walkers"? Maybe it's a form of outlawry.

So far only Rick's group has called them walkers. Everybody has their own names for them.

Maybe he was sitting on the Group W bench.

A friend was a fan of the books before the show came on.  He's all excited because there is a gang in the comics called The Wolves, who end up in a war with Alexandria.  He's thinking that's how the season will end, with lots of casualties...

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

It's kind of fun watching the more obnoxious comic readers troll the tv show watchers with who is supposed to die next.  Personally I like the character so I'm hoping they pull a Carol and keep them alive.

W is wolves.

Character lifespans is one thing that has definitely differed from the comics from what I can tell.  Haven't read them, but I check the wiki out from time to time to reference the going on's.
