The Walking Dead Ep 6-7



Alright folks I'm back. I haven't updated cuz I've been lazy and busy at the same time. The makers of TWD thought it would be cool to have 13 episodes this season and to have a "mid season" finale. We have to wait another 3 months before the rest of the episodes come out, woopie-do.

S2E6 - Secrets

From the last episode, Glenn finds the barn full of walkers and his girlfriend Maggie tells him to stfu because her dad wants to keep them there. Apparently these people are "sick" according to the farmer man--damn ignorants. Rick spends more resources trying to find Sophia. Meanwhile, Shane goes to teach everyone on site how to shoot guns, including the little boy, Carl. Andrea shoots well at practice, so Shane makes her shoot moving targets and she can't hit a thing. Dale confronts Hershel about the barn and he tells him to mind their own business and be ready to leave their property. Glenn (& Maggie) goes to fetch more supplies for Lori because shes preggo. They almost die to a walker. Shane & Andrea go into town to search for Sophia and then confront a bunch of walkers. In distress, Andrea manages to learn how to shoot moving targets. Now that she has the abortion pills, Lori takes like ten of them, then throws them up. Dale confronts Shane about Otis' death and threatens him. It backfires. Rick finds the pills and Lori spills the beans--the pregnancy and her affair with Shane.

Thoughts - I think it's pretty stupid how they don't conserve ammunition and wastes all their rounds on "practice." Shane nails Andrea in this episode, about time. Lori finally spills the beans about her relationship with Shane and Rick is okay with that. Is Rick okay? The dude fucked your wife and you're going to pretend nothing happened?

Good parenting includes teaching your 8 year old to shoot a gun

S2E7 - Pretty Much Dead Already

Glenn tells the group there's walkers in the barn. Everyone freaks out and Shane wants to deal with it by killing all the walkers. Dale goes to hide the guns because he knows Shane will go clear the barn with or without Hershel's permission. Rick asks Hershel for his permission to stay on the farm instead of getting evicted because Lori is pregnant. Shane learns that Lori is pregnant and he is certain that the kid is his. Hershel brings Rick to help round up some walkers back to the farm with a leash. Otis used to do this but now hes dead, so someone else has to do the job. Shane tracks down Dale and gets the guns back through intimidation. Shane gives everyone a gun and prepares for the shoot down. Shane sees Rick herding walkers back to the farm and rages out. He screams that walkers aren't people and he shoots them down. He breaks down the locks on the barn to let the walkers out. The crew massacres the walkers in front of the distraught Hershel family. In the end, Sophia emerges from the barn. And thus we kill off Sophia.

Thoughts - slow start, but the episode ends in a bang. I just don't know what to make of Shane. He's a villain, the type you love to hate. He didnt have to go and knock down the doors of the barn, they were safe. But yet he did and massacred the crowd. At least they finally found Sophia, who was in the barn this whole time.

Whatchu gonn do old man?

This is easy, its like herding cow
