The Walking Dead 3x5

Again if you haven't seen this episode do not read this post. SPOILERS

So this episode starts with the town of Woodsbury having a party. They have cold drinks and Andrea and Milton are talking about tonight's festivities. We then see the Governor brushing someone's hair who happens to be a zombie. The hair rips out she gets angry and tries to bite him. He ties he up and he notices Michonne looking up at his window.

Credits roll and when we return we are back at the prison were we last left off and Rick isn't hearing anything, Daryl, Maggie and Glenn offer to go get formula for the baby but darly and Maggie go only. Rick grabs an axe and runs into the prison.

Back at Woodsbury the crowd gathers while the governor gives a speak on how far the group has come and Michonne goes into the governors house to get her sword back. He overhear the governor, Milton and Merle talk about tonight and an experiment. Michonne finds a cage full zombies which she kills and gets caught. She and the governor talk about her fitting in and that he was going to give her sword back. He offers her a place with the research team and she pulls her sword out on him. She leaves after not killing him.

Back to the prison we see Glenn digging a grave and Axel and Oscar said the area is clear and offer to help him. He tells them to dig two more as he tells Hershel that he'll go inside to get Rick and then explains how he knew t-dog when the outbreak started and how he saved Glenn's life.

Back to Woodsbury and we see Andrea and the governor talking about what Michonne had done. He tells her Michonne is causing issues and tries to get Andrea talk her. Michonne wants to leave and Andrea doesn't see how the town is bad.

Glenn goes searching for Rick and we see bodies of zombies everywhere and when Glenn finally finds Rick he's not all there. He snaps at Glenn and almost kills him.

We see this set up that is the generator which us wind and solar powered with a pit to catch zombies. Milton looks over the zombies and he he's but but is wearing this duct tape suit and survives. Merle kills it and pulls out it's teeth.

Maggie and Daryl break into a daycare for baby supplies. They hear something in a pantry and it turns out to be an opossum.

The girls try to leave and Merle tries to stop them. The lightbulb huts Andrea that something is wrong but they are allowed to leave. Andrea tells Michonne that she cannot live any longer on the road. Michonne asks if Andrea is coming and when she doesn't. She walks out and tells Andrea she only slowed her down. The govenernor tries to console Andrea and offers a drink, company and to forget.

Daryl and Maggie return at night and they give the baby the formula. Darly is the one holding and feeding the baby and he asks Carl if he's thought of a name. Daryl calls her asskicker. Rick finds where Lori was killed but there is just the bullet and he finds a zombie and shoots it in the mouth. Assuming it ate Lori Rick stabs the zombie.

Back at Woodsbury there's a game.zombies are chained up while Merle and another guy are going to fight. Andrea is appalled while everyone is cheering. She tells the governor it's barbaric and that its fixed but she isn't buying it. Merle wins.

At the prison it's early dawn and we see Daryl place a flower on one of the grave sites. Rick is sitting where Lori died and the phone rings.

My review:

I thought the episode was really good. Some action and drama and it didn't get boring. A few things that I was weary on but still a good episode.

I will say that there's an element in tonight's episode that is similar to what I am writing about for my nanowrimo novel. I guess it's in the comics but I haven't gotten that far yet. I won't say what that is.

Anyone else thinks its weird that Milton calls the governor by his real name after all the earlier crap that he doesn't tell anyone it? It was said only once but it felt weird hearing it.

Also the duct tape suit I'm not sure I buy that. Yes it's strong but I think it need to be thicker to work and you'd have to replace it over time.

Also I find it odd that Daryl is getting all paternal and caring for the baby. Not to say he's stone cold or anything but out if everyone left he's one if the last people I would expect this from.

Now was Lori eaten by that zombie or not. I feel confused because there was no blood on the bullet and blood in the floor with drag marks so something else might have happen. I almost want to say they are playing with us.

I think the fight with chained zombies was cool but I thought it be more ruthless than it was.

And lastly where the hell is carol? There's no mention if finding her body so why the grave? Is she going to be this season's Sofia? And who the hell called Rick? Carol? Lori? The governor? Too many questions
