The group must contend with a new set of issues while out on a mission, and must push through to survive.I really hope we don't have to wait through an entire episode of Abraham, Eugene, Rosita, Maggie and Glenn to find out what happens with Carol, Beth and who is with Daryl.

(18,497 posts)We do need some minor characters for body count in the rest of the season after all.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)Would be nice if they had an actual doctor with them...at least temporarily.
alphafemale
(18,497 posts)I mean. Seriously?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)I hope they don't make Carol into some sort of super woman. Daryl is almost like a super man as well - how often does Daryl screw up? He almost never misses with his crossbow, can track a falcon on a cloudy day, etc.

(5,604 posts)It looks from these trailers that a lot of stuff happens that they used in the midsummer promo.

(56,828 posts)since he made his first appearance on the show...
Laffy Kat
(16,379 posts)There's so little humor in WD I just loved it.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)that's correct. A few moments of it, but what can you expect in that kind of world?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)I hope it's a strong episode.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)Carol was pretty beat up when she was brought into the hospital... superficial? Maybe, maybe not? I'm not Bill Frist, so I can't judge somebody over the TV
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)to start - Rosita playing with his hair.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)pretty big group Maggie, Glenn, Tara, Eugene, Rosita and Abraham
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)that came out of nowhere... bus flips on its side, about to be swarmed by walkers
Joe Shlabotnik
(5,604 posts)NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)That's what it seemed like to me
Brigid
(17,621 posts)The bus crashed. And here come the walkers.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)not sure?
Brigid
(17,621 posts)This must have reminded Abraham of an incident in grocery store soon after the apocalypse struck.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)tara wading into the action
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)tough battle there - Abraham without much in the way of hand to hand weapons
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)but, they're only 15 miles out from the church? and now they're walking to DC? Crazy
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)and seems disgusted by it
Brigid
(17,621 posts)This is the way things are now.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)by Abraham and Rosita
But no more.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)scooping up toilet water to drink
Brigid
(17,621 posts)Any gastrointestinal illness could easily kill.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)but, still...
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)while Eugene watches. Wow, this guy is really a loser
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)and thanks him for saving her life
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)Eugene sabotaged the bus and caused it to blow out because he wanted to stay back with the gang at the church
charlie and algernon
(13,447 posts)Rosalita either dies or requires Abraham to save her. after a flashback showing Abraham's wife and kids dying.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)they usually give people more lines before they kill them off. Rosita hasn't said much yet.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)Abraham and Rosita and now Glenn & Maggie?
Brigid
(17,621 posts)Something about the way he talks.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)cowardly, can't shoot, mullet hairdo, voyeur,saboteur.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)and, it starts up after sitting idle for what, 18 months?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)into some building
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)with the fire hose
Brigid
(17,621 posts)What did that message say?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)I guess they missed the sign
Liberal Veteran
(22,239 posts)...surely they could have found a 2015 Hyundai Tuscon?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)and his family is gone (flashback)
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)almost over.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)interrupted by a smell?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)thousands of them

You can't smell on TV.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)he's not a scientist and doesn't know how to stop it.
amerikat
(4,909 posts)charlie and algernon
(13,447 posts)NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)that was big. Do they turn around & go back to the church now?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)Is Abraham going to kill himself?
charlie and algernon
(13,447 posts)can't say though that Eugene didn't deserve to get punched in the face.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)to come later. I think in the comics, he's a high school science teacher, so he was able to sound somewhat competent about scientific things.
Of course, Walter White was a high school science teacher, too.
Brigid
(17,621 posts)Working far below his abilities in teaching high school chemistry?
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)he was a star scientist at a university until his affair with that other woman caused a rift between him and that other guy
Brigid
(17,621 posts)Now all that is gone.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)Eugene looks a lot different without the mullet.
amerikat
(4,909 posts)Who needed a mission. Not a good place for a soldier to be. Without a mission to carry out I mean
Liberal Veteran
(22,239 posts)Rick was a cop. Michonne was a lawyer. Between the two of them, they should have been pretty good at knowing when someone was full of shit. A few pointed questions would have been more than warranted before agreeing to take an extremely dangerous journey from Georgia to DC through some of the more densely populated areas of the country. Of course, the safest bet for any of them would be to head to the coast, find a boat, and ride the coastline get closest to DC without much walker trouble and only have to stop now and again for supplies and fuel.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)in the horror movie commercial - "let's hide in the barn with a bunch of chainsaws hanging around..."
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)another cliffhanger ending
charlie and algernon
(13,447 posts)I think the only cliffhanger is if Abraham kills himself.
Brigid
(17,621 posts)But we can't be sure yet.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)seemed to let it slip that he's still alive and that nobody likes him
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)He could end up with a broken nose...
Joe Shlabotnik
(5,604 posts)when the last scene of next weeks preview, is Daryl carrying a shrouded body.
Joe Shlabotnik
(5,604 posts)Not as action-packed as I thought it would be, but Abraham, and the back story was compelling.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)what happens with Daryl & Carol before she gets wheeled into the hospital
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)of next week's episode was haunting - they're making fans think it's Beth they're burning
Baitball Blogger
(46,709 posts)Though, why Daryl would get sentimental about burning her is beyond me.
NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)I don't think he would get upset over her.. unless it was somebody new that comes along?
Baitball Blogger
(46,709 posts)and Carol. It could be that she helped them in some way, and Daryl will have to put her down when he finds her in the hospital. That means backstory.
LostInAnomie
(14,428 posts)NewJeffCT
(56,828 posts)that we'll need to wait to find out about.
Baitball Blogger
(46,709 posts)Which reminds me, the operation on the zombie girl evidentally didn't work. I can't remember if she got bitten again after the operation.
Liberal Veteran
(22,239 posts)She went zombie after bleeding out (she was laying in a pool of blood) and dying rather than walker bite fever.
