Are you over Carol's little death story? Me, either. It's printed below, if you want to read it.
--As I mentioned before, it looks to me like they're the villains now--or the anti-heroes, if you will.
--Carol's nuts and Rick is murderous. One said the scariest things I've ever heard an adult say to a kid. The other very strongly considered shooting a guy to be with his wife.
--It's Alexandra Breckenridge, so that's almost understandable. But still...
--Buttons just didn't feel like running anymore. That was incredibly sad, but also a symbol for how Daryl is feeling.
--Too much running makes you tired. Literally and figuratively.
--But, poor Buttons. I mean, damn.
--As that was on, I opened my mail. I got something from PETA. There were pictures of hundreds of dogs in a cage in China, ready to be slaughtered for their meat. Cats, too, for their fur.
--I mean, DAMN.
--But I always give to them. I will this time, too, when I get paid. I like that they also supply you with an attached receipt you can fill out for your taxes. I know convenience is lazy, but why not do everything you can so people can donate? Though some will just fill that out and not donate, I know.
--I give to PETA and the ASPCA and the Humane Society and sometimes Best Friends, in case you were wondering. If you're looking for something to give to, these are great choices.
--Back to the show...
--Ironically, Daryl might be the one most ready to settle down. He may even shower soon.
--That kid's going to tell on Carol.
--And then he's going to get it. (Maybe.)
--Jessie's husband is certainly going to get it. He should be wearing a red shirt.
--So, too, probably, is Jessie. (Sorry.)
--Representative Monroe, the lady who leads Alexandria, sees more than she's showing. I'm not sure Carol's fooling her.
--Where'd Father Gabriel go? He didn't enter with the group, right?
--Somebody's branding the walkers with a "W." If you know my politics, you know who I think it is.
--Though someone would have to help him with the spelling, of course.
--(Sorry.) C'mon, though, it was funny. Okay, whatever.
--True, Michonne put the sword on the wall. But it's within easy reach.
--And you know she'll be using it very, very soon. I mean, there are just three episodes left.
--Because it bears repeating, here's Carol's little speech to the kid, copied from this very, very, very good review from the Wall Street Journal online:
“One morning you’ll wake up and you won’t be in your bed. You’ll be outside the walls. Far, far away. Tied to a tree. And you’ll scream and scream because you’ll be so afraid. No one will come to help. Because no one will hear you. Well, something will hear you. The monsters will come. The ones out there. You won’t be able to run away when they come for you. And they will tear you apart and eat you up all while you’re still alive. All while you can still feel it. And then afterwards, no one will ever know what happened. Or, you can promise not tell anyone ever what you saw here, and then nothing will happen. And you’ll get cookies. Lots of cookies.” She smiles. “I know what I think you should do.”
--And read that linked review for the clip of where we've all seen the "W." before. Did you remember that? Yeah, I didn't, either, though I did know I'd seen it somewhere before. Here it is again, for your convenience. That site always does a great job.
