Aside from that, this episode was really very bland. I really wasn't a fan of Rick's last minute freak out in front of Tyreese and his group. These are characters who should already be on the show to begin with so to see them struggle so hard to become part of the group is a little frustrating to watch. I understand the group's reluctance to allow strangers into their new home, especially with all the things they have been through but eventually they need to trust somebody. I am also curious why nobody seemed to think of the idea of blindfolding Merle, taking him back to the prison, locking him up, and interrogating him since, you know, they live in a prison and all. If the group is so concerned about the Governor and Woodbury, wouldn't it make sense to attempt to gain some valuable information from a person who lived there and was a big part of their security force? I'm sure that Merle wouldn't have had much of a problem with giving up information and it would have kept Daryl around long enough for everyone to have cooled down and figured out a plan. |

Good point. In that case, I still would have knocked him out to shut him up and then locked him up in one of the cells in order to interrogate him later. |

Definitely seeing Merle and Daryl walk off into the zombie-infested wilderness slapping each other's backs was a weird sort of a denouement, I suspect the writer needed to get them both off scene for a bit for Rick to have his psychotic breakdown, because I can't see the bros putting up with that shit for more than a quick minute. It's funny, the comic flirted briefly with the idea of a nagging ghost-Lori too, but then dropped it suddenly with no real explanation. I wondered at the time if Kirkman had decided it would be a better idea for the show instead of the comic. |

Totally childish and pointless but I felt the need to state it. ![]() It was a silly episode for the most part and easily one of the seasons worst. The end spazz out just made me laugh. |

Completely agree about Andrea, she's the worst, but they could have taken him "out back" and shot him there. Totally worthless. They could have kept Merle separate, they do have an excess of cells. |

Because of the Ghost of Lori (Christ, really?) and Andrea STILL STAYING THERE KNOWING THAT RICK'S GROUP IS OUT THERE! ![]() Cannot stand her character. ![]() ![]() |

I would say that a large part of why she has been mishandled in the show has to do with the fact that they horribly miscast the role. I don't believe that they ever actually said how old she is in the comics but it is my understanding that she was actually closer in age to her sister then how she is portrayed on the show. They probably originally cast Laurie Holden as Andrea with the intention of trying make her relationship with Dale less controversial but between that and completely scraping the relationship altogether, they really lost a big part of the character and why we came to like her in the first place. We came to know Andrea and were able to identify her through her vulnerability with Dale. Also, like I pointed out earlier, they never really move her character forwards. This past episode is a perfect example of what I mean. She should have been the one to take charge and either put that poor guy out of his misery or just grab somebody and have them help her carry him out back so she could do it away from the rest of the group. Instead, she just stood there like and idiot waiting for somebody else to do something she was perfectly capable of doing herself. |
