The Walking Dead Thread - Part 2

[Mark-DuCo]

Not true..... you have to go back to when Morgan confronted Richard in his room..... Richard talked about deceiving the saviors to a point where they though the kingdom understood the impacts.... and only after that could they strike. Im sure the killing of Richard and what Morgan said to the guy after it happened was all part of that plan.

Or I am just reading into it too much.... but that was my take of why/how it went down

This is exactly what I was thinking

I saw it similarly. Morgan knows they have to fight if the Saviors are willing to kill a kid over a cantaloupe, and he bought the Kingdom time to prepare.

That's also why he told Carol about Glen and Abraham etc.

I agree, although Richard was obviously unaware of Morgan's chosen implementation of the plan .

Richard attempted to sacrifice himself to the Saviors for the greater good. There was no reason for Morgan to kill Richard at this point other than out of revenge for the kid that got killed (which wasn't Richards fault unless you're willing to blame him for the twisted actions of the Saviors). It didnt further the cause of the Kingdom, or help them in anyway. The way I see it Richard was a much, much better man than Morgan.

I agree. Bonehead move by Richard, but he had the right idea in trying to show the king just what the hell they're up against. I don't know how he could call himself a king and not have a plan to deal with the threat. Now he has to come up with one and he's a couple men short.

Morgan, just flat out lost it. No reason to take out Richard. It'll be interesting to see how Morgan does on his own out there, but he's gonna end up putting the saviors on alert. That could hurt the rebellion once it comes.

Glad to see someone agrees with me!

That's how I saw it.....It was basically Morgan helping Richard fulfill the role Richard wanted....

Morgan's freaking out again, like when Rick found him before. He used his son's name instead of the kid that died...freaked out at the cantaloupe spot and Richard's grave...he's losing it. He's even more unpredictable in that condition and could prove to be a liability. I hope I am wrong, but a freak out at the wrong moment could cost some of the good guys some lives.

 

[Fordtough25]

I think Morgans time is limited, his mindset at this point will cause him to expire. IMO. I did also catch him saying his sons name in place of the child that died.

 

[RugerRog]

At the end Morgan is sitting on the porch and appears to be sharping his stick, and he appears to hear something turns around briefly and then goes back to sharpening. Did anyone else catch that?

Why is Rosita such a failure at life? So bland

 

[Thegeek]

​Maybe the writers should have spent more time developing Morgans backstory.

Season 1, episode 1 isn't enough?

 

[HubertGummer]

My god the writers know how to drag on events leading to an upcoming war...

 

[MCgrease08]

I enjoyed this one too. It had a good pace and plenty of action. Of course that means the next 2 or 3 episodes will probably be snoozers.

I hate being right. Last night's episode was all but unwatchable.

Yeah, didn't really learn anything Sunday night. Story wasn't advanced much. Only two episodes left, anyone want to bet cliff hanger 2017 is the war we've been building to for a season and a half?

I hate cliffhangers at the end of the season. It's annoying and incredibly disrespectful to loyal viewers.

 

[JeremiahJohnson]

Agree. Bet they do it anyway.

Eugene brings the sex!!

Eugene brings the sex!!

Being married to a woman of the Latin persuasion I wanted to come to Rosita's defense.......But in the midst of that I came across this photo and thought it was too funny to not post....

I also caught the other night that Jesus swings for the other team....Maybe it's just me but it seems in TWD Universe that the percentage of the population that swings for the other side is higher after the outbreak than before....Apparently LGBTQ goes perfect with TEOTWAWKI........

And my Seinfield disclaimer....

"Not that there's anything wrong with that...."
