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

Egg planted.

The A Team

Sophia's Dead

The Walking Dead Ep 5

S2E5 - "Chupacabra"
The script writers really need to come up with a better name for the episode titles. The crew still haven't found Sophia, the lost little girl in the woods. They send out a search party once again. Daryl takes a horse to scout further out. Rick and Shane have another morality conversation in the woods in which Shane says its a waste of time while Rick doesn't want to give up hope. Daryl's horse flips him over a cliff and he gets punctured by his own arrow. Poor guy has a will to survive and a natural instinct to do what is necessary to achieve it. However, with his wounds, he fails multiple times to get back up the hill. After he fails, he is knocked out and starts hallucinating. He sees his brother, whose name escapes me, and starts talking to him about how he's pathetic. Merle (thats his name) kicks Daryl and tells him to get up. He wakes up just in time before a walker takes a bite out of him. He pulls out the arrow from his body, shoots the walker, and eats a live squirrel. Talk about being a badass. He eventually gets over the cliff and walks back to the farm. Unfortunately, the way he walked looked like a walker, and the blonde bonehead shoots him with a sniper rifle, despite Dale telling her not to shoot. Luckily she missed and Daryl didn't die.

Never ride a horse in a zombie apoc.

Wake yoself up son

Lets shoot that incoming thing that looks like a walker

Why do they make them so pretty and dumb?

The Walking Dead Ep 2-4

S2E2 - "Bloodletting"
Honestly, nothing happens in this episode. Rick brings Carl to a farm where they can find help. The other crew continues to search for the lost little girl but find nothing. The vet tells Rick that he needs to operate on Carl in order to save his life. They need medical supplies. Shane and the guy who shot Carl volunteer to go to the local high school to grab supplies. Shane and Otis get trapped inside.

S2E3 - "Save the Last One"
The caravan crew and the farmers finally come together. They still haven't found Sophia. Lori and Rick contemplate on whether or not to perform the surgery on Carl, since the world sucks. Nothing really happens and in the end Shane comes back from the trip with the medical supplies--alone. The vet saves Carl's life. In the end, it is revealed to us that Shane killed Otis in order to escape from the horde of zombies when they were being pursued. However, he lies about it being an accident, that Otis sacrificed himself.

Thoughts - Shane had two options when he was being chased by the horde. One was to die together with Otis. The other was to turn on the guy and save himself. He chose the latter. However, he could've done it better by shooting the man in the head, instead of shooting him in the foot and causing his death to be much more painful (eaten alive sucks). And you have to wonder... if they had that much time to fight against each other before the zombies caught them, are you sure they couldn't have gotten away together?

S2E4 - "Cherokee Rose"
The crew finds a walker inside one of the water wells. Since they didn't want to contaminate the water by shooting it in the head, they decide to drag it up and then smash it. But honestly, if it already been down there for that long of a time, it probably already made the water bad. The geniuses decide to get the walker out of the well by using Glenn as bait. They almost get him killed because they couldn't support the rope. They successfully tie a noose to the walkers head and drag it out of the well. Ironically, the walker ripped in half and the lower half (guts and all) fall back into the well. Lori asks Glenn to get her a pregnancy test from the local pharmacy. Glenn goes with Maggie and when Maggie saw him digging through the condoms, she initiates sex. Back home, Lori cries when she finds out she's pregnant.

Thoughts - 3 things really happened: the ugly walker in the well, Glenn getting laid, and Lori is revealed to be pregnant. Glenn getting laid was awful. It downright made Asians look bad. He was the typical virgin nerd who didn't know what he was doing and got lucky. Lori is pregnant with Shane's kid and only Glenn knows.

Who woulda thought a single rope wouldn't hold him?

"Good thing we didn't do something stupid like shoot it - TDog"

Disburbing things about humanity

Recently, a 2 year old toddler was ran over by a truck, twice. 18 people walked by the 2 year old in a pool of blood, yet none of them did anything to help her. She died yesterday, after several days of suffering in critical condition in the hospital. The link I provided above contains the video of the clip of which the child was ran over by two different trucks. Do not watch if you are squeamish, it truly is sickening. What is more scarier than the lack of compassion from the drivers is the fact that bystanders pretended they didn't see the child at all. Among them, a mother and child walked by, and did not care. Others strolled along and it was not until the 19th person that went to get help for the kid. What has humanity come to? Are we so cold hearted that we are willing to let others die right in front of us?
