Please tell me Rick isn't that stupid ... to think that the Gov will stop at Michonne, and be giving up one of his best fighters in the process.

It's worth the time for the Gov, though, if he can get them to hand over Michonne like that, know that they're one more person short when he goes to finish the job.

If Rick falls for it then he deserves getting capped ... that would surpass even Andrea's stupidity, (can't believe he's considering it, actually, though it makes for good story).

You have to understand rick is extremely desperate right now. He doesn't have many options that will end well for him and his team. This seems like the only way out to him. Even if its not a guarantee, it could be his only option if he and his friends want to live.

The other option is just go to war. Between that and giving up someone you don't even care for all like that.........just playing devils advocate. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

So I watched this show and imho, this is even more awful than the Kardashians, which I thought was impossible. Wow. Easily the absolutely most intolerable garbage I have ever watched in my life

If you just watched it for the first time then obviously you won't like it because you have no idea what's going on. I didn't like it either at first because I had no idea what was going on. Then I started from episode one and watched it in order and I love it now.

And what does that teach his son about character?

No, I can't imagine Rick would loosen his grasp that much on always taking the high road in his son's eyes, especially now that he has a connection with her, ("I think she's one of us.") ... at least I hope not. ;)

That's been the one consistent thing that sets this group apart from the rest, their efforts to retain their humanity.

The ads for next week have the Gov chasing someone after leaving the town, (must be his "assistant" taking the high road to warn the prison group about the slaughter coming, even if they turn over Michonne), and someone inside his group trying to sabotage his plans, (gotta be Andrea).

He might not have a son if he doesn't quickly find a way to get through this. I don't think he will give her up but I can't get mad at him for entertaining the idea.

My pic is now, and will be Fab Melo until he posts his first official NBA dbl-dbl. This may be permanent.

Yeah, I hear ya ... just hope it's not carried through.

This episode was a bit anti-climactic ... I think they could've shortened the whole "meeting" thing a bit for a little more action/tension building.

meh

I agree.

I guess this is what they meant when rumors surfaced that they ran out of material towards the end of the season...

3 Episodes left, Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. will hit the fan soon enough though.

I think the whole meeting between rick and the gov. was a dumb idea plot wise.  I don't know how I am supposed to believe that Rick would actually sit down at the table with the gov after he attacked the prison.  It doesn't make sense to me.  Why would he ever trust anything the gov would say after the attack?

Yeah, and if he did, why wouldn't he just cap this guy and end the whole thing? There's much of this show that is beyond plausible, but I guess that's television, eh? ;)

Terrible episode. Trying to get fancy pants and win awards.

The Sopranos would throw an episode in like this - Chris and Tony chasing the Russian in the woods - but it would be a once or twice a year thing (when the show was good.) And they gave you a lot of action around it. This was a key plot episode - should only have been half the episode. They have a new born baby - make the baby get sick and the prison peeps have to deal with going on a run as half the episode. The whole "Merle is out of control thing" is lame. Although his brotherly concerns foreshadows Darryl's death IMO.

Meh, everyone's a critic.

Some little clues from (Executive Producer) Robert Kirkman on upcoming episodes ... not really big spoilers, but you may choose to not read:


1) Rick has been scared straight: Rick's journey to Crazytown took a detour when he came across an even crazier Morgan, "He sees this fun house there - who he could eventually be if he keeps going down this path," says Kirkman. "He could have a relapse, but he is getting a handle on what is going on with him."

2) Andrea becomes the key player: "The rest of the season really is about what Andrea is doing," says Kirkman. "The fact that she wasn't able to kill the Governor is going to play into a lot of the upcoming story for the rest of the season."

3) More deaths are around the corner: Says Kirkman: "I'm afraid there may be a casualty or more still to be experienced by the end of the season." Gulp.

4) The endgame is near: "There is a resolution" to the Rick-Governor conflict, promises Kirkman. "And it will set things up nicely for season four."

Predictable, but it's sad that there's so much emphasis on a weak character.
