I’m predicting whassisname, the teen that hates Corl, is planning to shoot Corl, that’s why he’s so gung ho on learning to shoot right away, you can see the palpable hate in his eyes, can’t understand why Rick or Corl don’t see it Oh and the Glenn “resolution”? cheap, lazy writing, I love the character, but there’s no way he could have legitimately escaped without even so much as a bite to seal his fate… Oh, and that 1911 laying in a puddle of gore and not showing any corrosion? Highly unlikely, even if it was stainless steel, stainless means stain(rust) _less_, I.e. less than carbon steel… ---

AMC’s signal froze on our cable about 40 minutes into the episode. No other channels are affected. Did the zombies sabotage the communications? ---

> [@MacTech](#): > > Oh and the Glenn “resolution”? cheap, lazy writing, I love the character, but there’s no way he could have legitimately escaped without even so much as a bite to seal his fate… Agreed. They have written themselves into a corner now. I cannot believe any moment of suspense from this day forward because they will allow a main character to get out of an impossible situation with a bullshit deus ex machina. I mean, look at the situation they were in: [screenshot zombies surrounding dumpster glenn - Google Search](https://www.google.com/search?q=screenshot+zombies+surrounding+dumpster+glenn&espv=2&biw=1093&bih=514&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiA5-XcyKXJAhUIQSYKHUN5CggQsAQIOQ&dpr=1.25#imgrc=WeEv5Kcf6JI4iM%3A) and he falls off the dumpster right into the horde, but they just let him slide under the dumpster and then go away. Can’t they smell fresh meat? ETA: He is taller than the dumpster is wide or long. ---

Did Steven Yuen get paid for the episodes he missed? I know his name wasn’t in the credits. I wonder if there is some budget saving stuff going on. ---

I cannot believe any moment of suspense from this day forward because they will allow a main character to get out of an impossible situation with a bullshit deus ex machina. After setting up a cliff hanger with Rick trapped in the RV and surrounded by a herd of zombies, they have not even bothered to show us how he escaped. I guess we are supposed to reason that, hey, he’s the main character, he just did something brave and clever to get himself out of the predicament. Use your imagination. ---

Yes, I was briefly into the Tarot stuff when I was eighteen or so. The Fool also comes to mind.
