00:00:24
What's up, hybrids? Welcome back to another episode

00:00:27
of the Phantom Hybrid Podcast. This is Hanukkah and I am here

00:00:31
with Casey and Michelle and we are discussing season 2, episode

00:00:35
2 of Daryl Dixon, the Book of Carol.

00:00:39
And I'm just letting y'all know now.

00:00:41
I'm going to be a pure asshole this entire episode because

00:00:46
every other word is going to be I told y'all so because I've

00:00:50
been telling y'all since episode one season 1 that they were

00:00:56
trying to push this little romance theme between Isabel and

00:01:00
Daryl. Y'all told me I was imagining

00:01:02
it. Y'all told me I was wrong.

00:01:04
And then we get a kiss. We didn't.

00:01:06
Episode. We didn't see it.

00:01:08
You see my face back and the eye roll.

00:01:12
And. The eye roll cause.

00:01:16
Please, I'm just saying no. No, I felt NO0 big golf ball

00:01:23
size 0. Nothing of them two having a

00:01:27
romantic link. I did too.

00:01:29
It was, it was horrible. I called it and I was right.

00:01:34
You called it, but whoever wrote it, look.

00:01:37
Look, not to say that I like it because OK, y'all give us how

00:01:43
many seasons of Daryl and Connie making, you know, batting their

00:01:49
eyelashes at each other and all of this, you know, teasing about

00:01:55
this relationship and then, OK, I'm gonna go one step further.

00:01:58
Y'all know I'm not a Carolyn Daryl shipper.

00:02:01
But even on that end, y'all have made like and it I just don't

00:02:12
understand. I don't understand like I I

00:02:19
can't probably hear you lonely. There's there your your people's

00:02:23
not here and you're in close proximity with this woman.

00:02:26
I I get that kind of thing, but I'm.

00:02:33
Flabbergasted. I just want to say I don't like

00:02:39
it. Say it again.

00:02:43
I don't like it here. We it because again, no

00:02:49
chemistry that I felt between them two.

00:02:52
None. He got more chemistry with

00:02:54
Laurent than he do with her. And exactly so you should have

00:02:58
just left it their story like him being a father figure

00:03:01
instead of like uncle, but actually a father figure.

00:03:04
Not this. This loving family that we're

00:03:07
about to create. It's like you trying to force

00:03:10
that on, but if you know it's the.

00:03:12
Afterthought that's OK because I just feel like she's gonna die

00:03:16
'cause they kissed, so I'm good. We'll get another girlfriend

00:03:21
later. So the thing with that is Casey

00:03:26
and I were talking about this and we were talking about the

00:03:29
fact that they're moving the story to Madrid.

00:03:32
Well, I don't know if they're actually moving the story to

00:03:35
Madrid, but we know they started filming in Madrid for Season 3,

00:03:40
right? So the only two options for

00:03:44
Isabel going forward is she either goes with Daryl to

00:03:50
wherever, however he ends up in Spain.

00:03:53
Maybe he's trying to go home and I don't know, the winds blow him

00:03:57
some. I I don't know, but either she

00:03:59
goes home with him, which they did talk about in this episode,

00:04:03
or she dies. Laurent dies because I don't

00:04:07
see, I don't see them making such a big deal of this boy and

00:04:13
what he's supposed to represent. And again, you're pushing this

00:04:18
whole romance thing with Daryl, which that I, I, I'm going to

00:04:22
say it. That kiss was a bit awkward.

00:04:24
It was weird. But you, you push this story in

00:04:28
this way, what's going to be the end game?

00:04:32
I, I, I've asked that before, where is this story going?

00:04:36
Because, OK, we, we talked about the chemistry between him and

00:04:42
Connie. You really think he's going to

00:04:43
take her back to the Commonwealth?

00:04:46
Like it, it just doesn't fit. He didn't even do that with Leah

00:04:52
when he was with her and he was with her for over a year.

00:04:56
He didn't even try to bring her back.

00:04:59
So I, I don't know. I mean, I'm, look, I'm giddy

00:05:03
that I, I, I called it and that I was right because I like being

00:05:08
right, especially on this podcast, because we're also

00:05:12
opinionated. And there are times when you

00:05:16
just see something and it's just like, that's not about to

00:05:19
happen. And they're like, I felt it in

00:05:21
my gut the minute they put them on the screen and I saw the way

00:05:25
they were writing them. I was like, yeah, they're gonna

00:05:27
try to make this a romance. It took them a a season and a

00:05:31
couple. Of idiots but and then, you

00:05:34
know, watching each other in the bath I mean, I seen.

00:05:37
That when? That happened too.

00:05:39
The romances that have happened happened organically and very

00:05:44
natural. Glenn and Maggie, Rick and

00:05:47
Michelle. It wasn't forced.

00:05:49
I feel like this if this was something that they were gonna

00:05:51
do, they should have developed it a little more and used part

00:05:56
of Season 1 to make that connection sort of in some sort

00:06:00
of way. I don't think in Season 1, other

00:06:02
than like when Quinn she she met up with Quinn and you know, they

00:06:07
were all together in his little fortress, whatever the hell that

00:06:09
was. That was the only time I kind of

00:06:12
saw a twins when he was trying to like protect her.

00:06:15
But to me that was just Daryl being protective.

00:06:18
That wasn't me. I mean that wasn't me seeing

00:06:20
Daryl trying to be. Oh, let me let me be chivalrous

00:06:24
and show you my love. No, that was Daryl protecting

00:06:27
her as he would be Sylvie. Anybody else who's a female.

00:06:33
So I didn't get romance in that in any way.

00:06:37
And so even with everything that went on in this episode with

00:06:42
the, you know, them going trying to find LeBron, who really

00:06:45
wasn't kidnapped and that whole scene that went down with her,

00:06:49
you know, all of them, even in that I didn't see romantico.

00:06:54
And so when we go back to the house and we sit, you know, we

00:06:57
sitting outside and maybe I can go back to America with me.

00:07:01
What Elaine, 'cause your whole point was to get him to the

00:07:04
nest. Like mission accomplished in in

00:07:07
in the greatest way. Well, so, so I under I, I think

00:07:11
I understand Daryl's, I won't even say reluctance in leaving

00:07:16
them at the nest. But even for us, looking at it

00:07:20
from the outside, looking in the first episode, we can kind of

00:07:24
see that the nest don't necessarily seem like it's where

00:07:29
they need to be. And then, of course, in this

00:07:31
episode with Jacinta, you know, giving orders to kill Daryl

00:07:37
because they're scared that Laurent is going to want to go.

00:07:39
Like, I can see that developing and Daryl being like, OK, you

00:07:44
know what? I'm not feeling the vibe here.

00:07:47
So if you guys want to come with me, we can go.

00:07:50
Because I think what it is, I think he feels or or rather he

00:07:56
sees the hesitation with Isabel. Like she's also looking at the

00:08:01
way things are going. And I don't think she's quite as

00:08:05
enthusiastic as she was before they got to the nest.

00:08:08
Like before they got there, she was thinking of the nest as, you

00:08:14
know, a symbol of hope, a symbol of the future, symbol of

00:08:19
returning to some sense of normalcy.

00:08:21
And you see the way that they treat Laurent when they're

00:08:24
there. Laurent is even saying it in the

00:08:27
beginning. And his voice over, he's like,

00:08:29
you know, everybody says they love me.

00:08:31
They treat me like I'm special. And I just, I just want a chance

00:08:35
to be a normal kid. And I think Isabel is seeing

00:08:38
that. And she sees that that's

00:08:40
probably not the way that it's going to go for Laurent.

00:08:44
I don't know if, you know, they started talking about this

00:08:47
ceremony a little bit more, and then we kind of get towards the

00:08:50
end with a meal and everything that happens to him that we'll

00:08:54
discuss later, we find out what exactly this ceremony is.

00:08:59
And it's like everything that Isabelle feared is being thrown

00:09:05
in her face. And not only that, it's almost

00:09:09
like they're trying to like they're trying to blame her or

00:09:13
make it seem like it's her father.

00:09:14
They were like, what? This was what you wanted, right?

00:09:17
You thought you were the one who thought Laurent was special.

00:09:20
And you see her face when Emil said says.

00:09:22
And she was like, am I the cause of all this?

00:09:26
This is not what I wanted. But.

00:09:28
She didn't think he was special in the sense that let him get

00:09:32
bit no. Not not let him get bit.

00:09:35
But I think she knows that Laurent has a destiny.

00:09:40
OK, I do believe that she still feels that in her bones.

00:09:44
She believes that. But what they're talking about

00:09:47
doing, and I mean, that's almost worse than, you know, we we keep

00:09:51
referencing The Last of Us and what they were going to do with

00:09:53
Ellie. This is worse.

00:09:55
It is. It's definitely worse.

00:09:58
What are you going to do if it doesn't work?

00:10:01
Right. And you, you literally killed

00:10:03
this kid to see if it works. Right.

00:10:07
And if it don't work it you want to be.

00:10:10
Like that look and then you'll be like, oh, it didn't work.

00:10:14
I guess it's not him. I guess he wasn't the one.

00:10:17
No. And.

00:10:19
Then everybody is going to riot because you've been preaching

00:10:23
this to them for so long. Because he could be in a

00:10:27
different way. Like it literally could be.

00:10:29
Like his blood could help with the cure, not turn him.

00:10:36
He can still be turned. Right.

00:10:39
You know, or he's just going to grow up and be like John Connor

00:10:44
in the term dated who just leads the people, lead them because he

00:10:48
has great leadership skills, not turn them to see.

00:10:52
Yeah. And then if you turn them, what

00:10:54
you lead what what what is turning improving at this point

00:10:59
that he ate the one. No, it's it's literally going to

00:11:02
kill their faith because that's what all of these people have

00:11:06
been holding on to. That's the reason why e-mail

00:11:09
ends up turning towards the end because whatever they did to him

00:11:16
and Maison met, he said that they didn't torture him or

00:11:19
anything, but they did make him watch as they, as she killed the

00:11:24
others, did their experiments on them.

00:11:28
And, you know, it's one of those things that kind of instilled to

00:11:31
him, no, if Laurent leaves, then this is what our future looks

00:11:35
like. No, it means get you some guns

00:11:39
and learn how to fight and take her area over.

00:11:42
You know how it is when people are brainwashed.

00:11:46
And that's exactly what at some point in the brainwashing, we

00:11:51
have to understand this is not a good plan.

00:11:53
But see, that's the whole point of brainwashing.

00:11:55
There is no, yeah, there is no common sense, however, OK, that

00:12:00
that would be how you will have to erase what I was about to say

00:12:03
because I was going to say, however, and a lot of times in

00:12:06
coats, when it came down to the end, there were some people that

00:12:09
looked around and say this shit ain't right, right.

00:12:12
Let's stop or run or get out of here.

00:12:16
So there's going to be many of them where the idea is great,

00:12:21
but in action it would click like we, I don't think we're

00:12:28
doing the right thing here. And you know, it's interesting

00:12:31
because Hassenta, his right hand woman, I guess whatever you want

00:12:36
to call it, I feel like Lozang maybe has some doubts, even

00:12:43
though he keeps saying, you know, he has the faith and he

00:12:47
knows this is what needs to be done.

00:12:49
But Hassenta is the one that's like, you keep pushing off the

00:12:52
ceremony and everybody else, they're getting tired.

00:12:58
They want to see proof. They want to see what's going

00:13:01
on. And she was what was it that he

00:13:04
said? He said something about the way

00:13:10
that they are. And she was like, so is it OK

00:13:12
for people to to, you know, riot or is the uprising OK?

00:13:17
Is that's what what's it's going to take in order for you to say,

00:13:22
OK, we need to go ahead and move through with this.

00:13:24
Like she is so gung ho. She is so blindly ready to

00:13:29
sacrifice his boy. And that's that's literally what

00:13:31
it is. Because even if he gets bit and

00:13:34
he survives you still that that's still a sacrifice because

00:13:39
he will no longer be the person that he was.

00:13:42
You are changing him forever with this one act.

00:13:47
Right. And then he may be like, I don't

00:13:49
like you guys, I'm gone and I'm going to leave another group of

00:13:52
people. And two, if you're in OK, faith

00:13:58
is having it without actually seeing it.

00:14:01
It ain't like we see miracles all the time.

00:14:04
Sometimes it just don't happen. And we're going to throw this

00:14:07
kid with a bite and then, oh, magically he will be healed.

00:14:10
That's not how it works, friends.

00:14:13
That's not how it works. Yeah.

00:14:16
But you know what? We have all lost our mind at the

00:14:19
end, so OK. Yeah.

00:14:22
Yeah, and you know what? This is the reason why he

00:14:25
doesn't even need Laurent. Doesn't even need to learn how

00:14:27
to fight 'cause he's going to turn into a Walker anyway with

00:14:30
their method. But going going back to the

00:14:33
whole Daryl and Isabel thing, like I, I think Daryl sees the

00:14:38
doubt there and he already can tell Laurent is not.

00:14:44
It's like La Ron is trying to be what he wants to be for these

00:14:47
people. But La Ron, I don't think he

00:14:50
cares. La Ron is like, oh, I want to go

00:14:52
over here and learn how to play baseball.

00:14:54
I want to do this. I want to do he wants to be a

00:14:57
key but. La Ron also knows La Ron also

00:15:00
knows that he can die. Yeah, knows that, yeah.

00:15:04
Like so it's like y'all want me to be this thing but I got wait

00:15:08
I got to die but. But that.

00:15:10
But that's the even worse part, because I'm pretty damn sure

00:15:14
they have not told Laurent what he's going to have to do.

00:15:18
They you think they really stupid?

00:15:23
I get that. He.

00:15:24
But you know Laurent's history. You really think Laurent is

00:15:29
going? To sit there.

00:15:31
You think he gonna sit there knowing that they plan to let

00:15:36
him get bitten You. No, no, and Daryl been training

00:15:42
them that you know loose ain't don't want him to do.

00:15:48
He trained him too much. He trained him too yeah, to

00:15:50
survive, like he said. Was it this that last episode?

00:15:54
Whichever episode he was like he, it's not too much for him to

00:15:57
live. Right now he's got it.

00:16:00
He's got to live in order to lead these people or do whatever

00:16:02
it is you want him to do. But apparently not.

00:16:05
Knowing that the ultimate plan is for him to die, make it make

00:16:10
sense. You saying turning into a

00:16:12
villain. I'm sorry, he just says.

00:16:14
And you know, we had that conversation.

00:16:17
We were talking about whether or not Madam Janay was going to be

00:16:20
the big, big bad. And we thought it would be

00:16:22
somebody else on her end. Like if something happens to

00:16:25
her, like there's a, there's a, a, a general bill on her side.

00:16:29
But no, it may end up being that Lo Sang is actually the bigger

00:16:34
villa, or maybe not even Lo Sang her center because she seems to

00:16:39
want this more than Lo Sang. I really feel like to a point,

00:16:44
Lo Sang believes what he what he's saying.

00:16:47
He believes in what he's doing. And I think right now he's he's

00:16:53
kind of tottering on the border of big of being faithful in that

00:17:01
fanaticism. I don't think he's gotten into

00:17:03
the fanaticism yet. Her sensor.

00:17:06
Yeah, I, I think she's, I think she's there.

00:17:10
And that's gonna be the the thing that's gonna be difficult.

00:17:14
That's gonna be the thing that's gonna be dangerous because at

00:17:18
that point you can't tell her anything with any amount of

00:17:22
common sense. And she's going to be like, oh,

00:17:23
OK, you know what? Maybe I was wrong.

00:17:26
Like, because she was scared that Laurent might want to go

00:17:30
with Daryl. Wherever Daryl goes, she put a

00:17:34
plan in motion behind low sangs back that oh, OK, you guys take

00:17:42
them out there. Let them look for Laurent.

00:17:45
But while y'all are out there, I want you to kill Daryl.

00:17:49
The only thing that that caused it to be different was Isabel

00:17:54
and Falou, who, you know, came back.

00:17:57
They rescued him. Falou was like, I'm going out

00:18:00
there too. And you saw Emil, tried to keep

00:18:03
him from going. Like no, you don't need to go.

00:18:06
Excuse me, you were held hostage too.

00:18:08
Why are you going with your new haircut?

00:18:10
You know what? When he got the new haircut,

00:18:13
that should have told me something was wrong.

00:18:16
That should have told me something was wrong because

00:18:18
something about the way he looked and his behavior, it it

00:18:22
just, I knew something was wrong when Sylvie was.

00:18:26
I knew something was was wrong when Sylvie was like trying to

00:18:28
clean him and she was like, oh. You don't have no wounds and

00:18:32
just the way he was acting even from there like before the

00:18:37
haircut, before the clean, if you go back and look the way

00:18:39
he's acting already. But I mean.

00:18:43
Acting like someone who has been through trauma.

00:18:45
So that's why I didn't look any deeper at it.

00:18:48
I just thought, OK, this this boy is in shock.

00:18:52
This boy is just glad to be back.

00:18:55
And he just doesn't know. I I really thought that maybe

00:18:58
something else had happened to him, You know, of course, when

00:19:01
when she opened his shirt and he didn't have any physical

00:19:04
bruising. OK, physical injuries is not the

00:19:07
only thing that can screw somebody up.

00:19:09
They could have done something to him mentally,

00:19:11
psychologically. And I really thought that that's

00:19:14
where they were going, which, as it turns out, is really what

00:19:17
they did. But for it to be for him to turn

00:19:23
on Falou of all people, like we met them together for like,

00:19:31
yeah, like, like, that's been like a father figure to him.

00:19:35
And you going to sit there and let someone try to kill him?

00:19:38
And you just looking, if I look sitting there looking like,

00:19:40
dude, what the fuck? Explain this to me like I'm two

00:19:47
years old. They told us to kill Darryl

00:19:52
because they said that he has too much influence.

00:19:56
Laurent will want to go with him.

00:19:57
And, and everything that we went through, everything that we've

00:20:02
fought for would be crazy. I do get that.

00:20:05
I do understand that. I do understand the sentiment

00:20:10
that caused him to feel like he had to do what he was supposed

00:20:13
to do. But my thing is how, how did you

00:20:18
expect that you was going to go back and look Sylvie in the face

00:20:21
after that? How did you think you was going

00:20:25
to go back and look her in the face?

00:20:27
And I will say this, I think at the end when Isabel shot him, or

00:20:35
at least it's implied because we didn't see a body.

00:20:37
We just know. We just heard it and we saw the

00:20:39
birds flying out to see a body. But I think she did that more so

00:20:45
not because of him turning on them or him, you know, doing

00:20:50
what he did when he got when he was getting ready for her to

00:20:55
shoot him, he grabbed the necklace that Sylvie put on his

00:20:58
neck. And I think that's why Isabel

00:21:00
shot him, because she was like, I cannot let you go back and

00:21:05
taint her. I cannot let you go back and

00:21:09
have her thinking the same thing.

00:21:11
I will not do that. I will protect her.

00:21:13
And I think that's what she did when she killed the male she was

00:21:16
thinking about. Sylvie, I don't think she was

00:21:18
thinking about Sylvie. I think she was thinking about

00:21:20
Darrell, period. That I hear you.

00:21:26
I hear you. But we have to keep in mind what

00:21:30
subsequently happened after that.

00:21:33
The kiss I mean and I and I get. That in a way, yes, she probably

00:21:38
had thoughts of Sylvie, but also, oh fuck, we saved you.

00:21:44
Like all the stuff that we went through and as much as Sylvie

00:21:47
had faith in you and you turn around not, not even doing this

00:21:51
to me, doing it to her, doing it to your friends, like that's

00:21:55
worth all of this to you. Yeah.

00:21:57
Like I'd have killed his ass too.

00:22:00
But I mean, again, given his reasoning about, you know,

00:22:07
everything that he has done for this faith, for this reason, for

00:22:11
Laurent, I can see, you know, I can look at him and be like, OK,

00:22:16
I can see where you would make that that wrong decision.

00:22:19
And Falu was even like, look, it's not too late.

00:22:24
We can fix this. We can fix this.

00:22:27
I think if Emil has shown some kind of remorse, if he had said

00:22:32
I'm sorry and, you know, again told them what happened to him

00:22:38
and what the, how they convinced him, I think they probably would

00:22:42
have looked 'cause I mean, Daryl, Daryl probably would have

00:22:45
been like, he's just a kid. He's just a kid.

00:22:49
He was manipulated. I mean, he's seen this kind of

00:22:52
psychological torture before. Hell, he, he, he's been

00:22:57
subjected to it. Easy street.

00:23:00
So I think so. I think Daryl wouldn't have.

00:23:06
I don't think Daryl would have killed him.

00:23:08
I think Daryl is giving him another chance, but he would

00:23:11
have. Still.

00:23:11
Be her being a nun her entire life and the way that she kind

00:23:17
of not necessarily gave up being a nun, but you know, she met

00:23:21
Emil, she fell in love with him and just she's so impressionable

00:23:26
and still so naive. I think that I really think

00:23:30
Isabel was like, no, 'cause if he goes back and he says this to

00:23:34
her and he tells her, oh, well, this is what's happening and

00:23:37
this is what they said. And if Laurent leaves,

00:23:40
everything that we we'd have done, everybody who's died,

00:23:44
everything it would have been all for not and blah, blah,

00:23:46
blah. She might have started looking

00:23:49
at him like, oh, you know what, you might be right.

00:23:52
No, no, no, I don't think Sylvie would have sacrificed LeBron for

00:23:55
him. Oh, I don't think she would

00:23:58
have, no, but I think she would have.

00:24:00
She might have started thinking like, OK, so we need to get

00:24:04
Daryl out of here. She probably wouldn't have

00:24:06
thought, oh, we need to kill him.

00:24:08
She probably would have been like, OK, we need to find you a

00:24:10
way to the Americas. But given the way that those

00:24:13
people at the the Nest are are working, especially that damn.

00:24:18
And and I would say this, I've not liked her since she showed

00:24:21
up on the screen. Something has always been weird

00:24:24
about her. Bitch, you really gonna try to?

00:24:28
You really thought that those people you sent was gonna kill

00:24:34
Daryl Dixon? Really.

00:24:38
You thought that was gonna work? The person.

00:24:41
Is going to tell everything. The killer 9 with him, The kid,

00:24:45
look, the killer 9 went with him.

00:24:50
Not that she was going to just shoot people, but Isabel knows

00:24:54
how to defend some shit. She's had to raise the right.

00:24:59
She's had to protect him. So I find myself in the middle

00:25:04
and I'm just re looking at that scene and I I just feel like she

00:25:10
shouldn't have killed him. I don't think she should have.

00:25:15
I mean that Darrell wouldn't have.

00:25:20
He wouldn't have, no. I mean, I would have left him

00:25:23
there. But you can tell that he's pain

00:25:26
and he's troubled. But unfortunately, pain in

00:25:31
trouble, sometimes they're the ones who make the stupid

00:25:33
decisions. And that's true, but I was about

00:25:37
to refer back to the to the girls, but there's nowhere near

00:25:41
like what Carol had to do with the girls 'cause she was far

00:25:43
gone. So this is redemption right

00:25:46
here. You could have been redeemed.

00:25:49
Yeah, he could have. He could have, but but we don't.

00:25:54
We also don't know how long they have been gone.

00:25:57
We we know it had been at least maybe two weeks cause cause

00:26:01
again, Daryl has been there for a few weeks since his, you know,

00:26:06
thwarted attempt to go home. So we don't know how long for

00:26:11
Lou and and Emil and all the others have been captured.

00:26:18
Yeah, we don't. And you know what?

00:26:21
Whatever they did to him, they probably did to him because he

00:26:25
was young and impressionable, which is sad because I really

00:26:32
liked his character. But you know, I'm just learning

00:26:35
that Don't get attached to anybody in in The Walking Dead

00:26:40
universe, especially new people in these in these spin offs like

00:26:45
Hannah and Ewan. Let's talk about them.

00:26:50
We don't go to the other side. We gonna come back to the next,

00:26:52
but let's talk about them. So Carol and Ash, they they

00:26:56
actually make it across the seas for a little bit and they do end

00:27:01
up having to stop in Greenland because the fuel line is janky.

00:27:07
They need to fix it. And when they land, there are a

00:27:11
couple of walkers around, which I was really.

00:27:14
I was like, oh, wait, we're seeing walkers in the wild.

00:27:17
Because again, we don't really see that much in France.

00:27:20
Even in this episode. All the noise, the trucks going

00:27:24
into, we don't see it but OK, Carol sees 3 walkers, she's got

00:27:30
Daryl's crossbow. She's like OK, I can make quick

00:27:33
work of this shump. There's one shump, there's two.

00:27:37
She gets ready to shoot the 3rd and here come them damn whack a

00:27:41
mole zombies again coming out. The grass grabs her leg and of

00:27:47
course she falls because she's not expecting it.

00:27:50
She grabs her knife, she draws her arm back.

00:27:53
Here comes another one behind her.

00:27:55
So she actually has to call for Ash because she's outnumbered

00:28:00
and I was like I was like I know y'all not bringing Carol to the

00:28:05
show just to kill her off but y'all cutting God damn close.

00:28:14
I enjoy because it shows you again walkers in different areas

00:28:18
and different environments. And it shows you how you know

00:28:22
that, that Carol still can't handle herself but.

00:28:25
Yes, she. Can she needs help sometimes and

00:28:28
Ash comes over to help her and then he almost gets bit and then

00:28:33
all of a sudden you hear a gunshot go off and they're both

00:28:35
look like the hell. With me.

00:28:41
I said OK, we got 2 new people, how's this about to go 'cause I

00:28:45
mean, we said it and we keep saying it and we always going to

00:28:50
say it. Anytime Carol Darrell, one of

00:28:54
our people, they show up in a place someplace new.

00:28:56
Everyone dies. Everyone.

00:28:58
Dies. But you know what?

00:28:59
These two had it coming. Well, maybe not Hannah so much,

00:29:03
because again, when you've been by yourself with with only one

00:29:10
other person for however many years.

00:29:14
Yeah. You're thinking ain't quite

00:29:16
straight, but once Ewan was gone, Hannah was just like, oh,

00:29:22
I can leave here, I can go somewhere.

00:29:24
Else. I, you know, I can't imagine

00:29:27
what being stuck in one place with nobody else but one person,

00:29:31
I, I can't imagine what that's like.

00:29:33
And it's concerning 'cause then I start to wonder.

00:29:37
Like, ain't nobody else in what? Have and what else have y'all

00:29:41
have done? When they opened that pod, it

00:29:46
had all determined they even people.

00:29:49
I wasn't sure too. I thought the same thing.

00:29:51
I'm like, OK, these two women, I don't, I don't, I don't trust

00:29:56
them. And they, there's nobody.

00:29:58
And y'all just. Nobody but the the, The crazy

00:30:02
thing about it is, OK, so when you first meet them, Ash and

00:30:07
Carol are like, oh, people and, and Ewan is just talking and

00:30:11
talking. She was like, we thought we were

00:30:13
imagining things when we saw your plane.

00:30:15
We haven't seen people in years and blah, blah, blah.

00:30:18
And, you know, talking very friendly.

00:30:20
They bring them to their to their little camper, which is

00:30:26
what they've been living in. And you know, they're like, oh,

00:30:31
we may have some things for you to fix your fuel line.

00:30:34
Ewan goes with Ash to go fix the plane and Carol sticks around

00:30:40
with Hannah. Now everything seemed OK.

00:30:44
And then when they started talking about the walkers and

00:30:48
Hannah started saying, Oh yeah, this is Mother Nature correcting

00:30:51
herself and blah, blah, blah. I was like, oh, she's getting.

00:30:53
She's giving off some alpha vibes here.

00:30:56
And and then at that point, I didn't know if Carol was like,

00:30:59
I'm going to kill her later before I leave.

00:31:02
I was like, ma'am, you may want to stop talking.

00:31:05
This is the time to stop talking.

00:31:07
I. Have been really surprised when

00:31:10
she started messing with the crossbow and she asked

00:31:12
permission. Carol was looking at her like

00:31:16
sure. I was like, Carol, what the fuck

00:31:19
are you doing? You know, I I think she was she

00:31:24
was she was she was filling it out.

00:31:26
I think she knew that this wasn't right that knife off that

00:31:29
table, right? She knew it wasn't and she like

00:31:33
not everyone know how to use this crossbow.

00:31:35
So I got a chance here, but it's it was, it was a strange

00:31:41
conversation. And at first I thought Carol was

00:31:44
like, oh, were you trying to blame us for all that is

00:31:46
happening? This is the reason why I lost my

00:31:48
daughter. And I'm thinking, oh, ma'am, you

00:31:51
gonna die, right? But you know what?

00:31:53
I do what I feel when they miss him.

00:31:56
Stop trusting everybody. Don't we already know to stop

00:31:59
trusting the living? Like y'all going there?

00:32:02
Oh, you want something to drink? No, I don't.

00:32:05
It could be poison. It could be poison.

00:32:09
You want something to eat? No 'cause ain't no meat out here

00:32:12
like no y'all just Oh yeah, you could see my weapon.

00:32:17
Sure. You want to go with me alone to

00:32:18
the plane? Sure.

00:32:21
Stay here. What?

00:32:22
No, we're group, we go together, we leave like.

00:32:27
Yeah, that was kind of weird for me too.

00:32:30
Like you just gonna let Ash go off with this with this woman?

00:32:34
Y'all don't know anything about them and that was really weird

00:32:39
so I 'cause. You know Ash don't know how to

00:32:41
defend himself in the level they cared.

00:32:43
I'm sure he does. Let me not say it like that.

00:32:45
He we know Carol's history of defense and what she can do and

00:32:51
take care of herself. We don't know that for Ash.

00:32:53
Granted, he was just with a woman, but Alpha was just a

00:32:56
woman. So you know what I'm saying So

00:32:59
and. Have some caution or come on

00:33:01
people that you come across. And the same thing we say about

00:33:05
don't assume because Carol's older than she can't defend

00:33:08
herself. Carol just did the same thing

00:33:13
with these ladies, like she she already did the threat

00:33:17
assessment and she found them not threatening.

00:33:21
However, that's the same thing that Darrell when he ran into

00:33:25
some people like, oh, the man is kind of blind.

00:33:29
I'm going to help them. Can y'all stop?

00:33:32
Right. People are not saying you got to

00:33:34
kill everybody you come across. Yeah, but people are people

00:33:37
everywhere. But y'all gotta go back to the

00:33:39
three questions. How many people have you killed?

00:33:42
How many walkers? Look, how many walkers have you

00:33:44
killed? How many people have you killed?

00:33:46
Why y'all you go back to the three questions.

00:33:49
Yeah, you can go back because this trusting folks shit is not

00:33:54
working out for y'all. Darren ended up all the way over

00:33:58
in in France, you know. No, just, and I mean, it works

00:34:04
out in some instances. Michelle when she helped, when

00:34:09
she helped those two and and they got hurt in that and then

00:34:13
they got, they got her to Rick. OK, that was a different story,

00:34:19
but Michelle also has very good people skills when it comes to

00:34:22
that. Yeah, and you see, in the

00:34:24
beginning Michelle was like, yeah, I'm about to go.

00:34:26
I did what I can. I'm I'm out.

00:34:27
She wasn't trying to hang around.

00:34:28
She wasn't trying to stick around.

00:34:29
She wasn't trying to do nothing. I'm not trying to get to know

00:34:31
y'all. I gotta go.

00:34:32
I'm on a mission. I'll be, you know I'm out.

00:34:35
I'm not trying to get to know you.

00:34:36
I'm not trying to take you with me.

00:34:37
I'm not trying to do none of that.

00:34:39
But y'all want to get to. Oh, you want to get to know me?

00:34:42
Do you yet? No.

00:34:43
Hell no. And then the the crazy thing is

00:34:47
it wasn't, it wasn't even, I'm going to say it wasn't even a

00:34:56
bad reason why they were trying to get Ash to stated like

00:35:01
they're like, we need to repopulate the earth.

00:35:03
And they have the only two people in Greenland.

00:35:05
They probably think that it's like that everywhere else.

00:35:08
And they've had it in this plan. They're like, yeah, we've we've

00:35:11
planned it out 4000 years. So first I get pregnant and then

00:35:15
Harry gets pregnant and then you know, y'all just keep on and and

00:35:19
I'm just like, I guess if you are the last few people at the

00:35:23
end of the world, that is how it's going to happen as far as

00:35:27
but at least. Get a man of choice because

00:35:29
obviously there if if, if they showed up.

00:35:32
That means that there are people out there.

00:35:35
Yeah. Can we just fly you to another

00:35:38
area maybe and you can meet some other men?

00:35:41
What if I told you I lost the ball and I don't have any sperm?

00:35:44
What you going to do, kill me? I mean they.

00:35:48
Saw that so many ways. Right, so many ways.

00:35:51
So like, take us with you could be.

00:35:55
That part motion, we're talking down in Paris.

00:36:00
Oh, there's people there. OK, I want to go.

00:36:02
Wow, yeah, I can hook up with some other men, right?

00:36:07
Or more willing? Or more willing.

00:36:09
Right. But that whole thing when she

00:36:12
was like, oh, yeah, you know, she was really, she was really

00:36:16
nice to him. And when she asked him about

00:36:18
his, whether or not he had children and he told her about

00:36:21
his child, she gave him a hug. I was like, OK, in any other

00:36:26
circumstance, I would say that sweet.

00:36:28
But this is really weird. This is a man you just met.

00:36:31
This is a woman you just met. And I was like, is, you know,

00:36:35
immediately I, I, I really did. My mind did kind of go there.

00:36:39
I was like, oh, she ain't had a man in a while.

00:36:42
She's probably like, oh, I don't know when this will happen

00:36:45
again. Let me get some.

00:36:47
OK. It would that would have been

00:36:48
that would have been different. That yeah, that would have.

00:36:51
Been that would have been different.

00:36:52
That would have been like, oh, OK, well, you know, I'm gonna

00:36:54
get my rocks out. OK, cool.

00:36:57
No, you want to kill and keep you.

00:36:59
Here. And keep you here and use you as

00:37:03
a sex slave, as a sperm donor? The fuck?

00:37:08
Definitely a sex slave I was. Like you just, you just hit a

00:37:13
produce, that's it. We'll make sure you fed.

00:37:17
We'll take good care of you, man.

00:37:20
But see, her mistake again, The whole underestimated Carol

00:37:26
thing, because Carol didn't even have to use a weapon to get

00:37:30
herself out of the situation. She she literally could read

00:37:35
that Hannah, she was like, you don't really want to kill me.

00:37:37
Or Hannah was like, I really don't want to kill you.

00:37:39
Oh, OK, so it's inanimate, unanimous what we gonna do,

00:37:44
right, you don't have to do. This I don't want to die and you

00:37:46
don't want. To kill me right and she was

00:37:49
like, but I have to you. I I would I lost the coin toss.

00:37:53
So you know I have to that's crazy.

00:37:56
Why do you why do you have to do that?

00:37:58
Like, I mean, and I you know what, it goes back.

00:38:03
I thought back to when Axel was in the prison and he thought

00:38:08
Carol was a lesbian. I was like, y'all didn't even

00:38:12
ask Carol could have been like, yeah, we can all stay here.

00:38:15
And what? You didn't even ask?

00:38:18
Y'all just a Oh no. OK.

00:38:20
So we just, we just finna, we just finna use you as a sex

00:38:23
slave and we just gonna knock you off.

00:38:25
Yeah. That's pretty much.

00:38:27
Fuck, what you talking? You don't.

00:38:28
Care what your intention is. Well, we don't.

00:38:30
Basically it. But you can tell Hannah was kind

00:38:33
of unhinged. And I don't mean, I don't mean

00:38:36
just like crazy, but she was just kind of like, I'm so sick

00:38:40
of being here. I don't want to be here, I don't

00:38:42
want to do this, but she's going to make me do it.

00:38:44
And Karen's like, you don't have to do it.

00:38:46
Why are you listening to her? She's not going to listen to you

00:38:49
if you tell her you don't want to kill me.

00:38:50
And Ewan walks in the door. So why haven't you killed her

00:38:54
yet? I don't want to.

00:38:55
Can I? Can I have a minute?

00:38:57
No, obviously not. I was like, this is about to be

00:39:00
interesting. I really thought Carol was the

00:39:02
one that was going to kill Ewan though, So when that when she

00:39:06
turned that crossbow and she shot her dead in the forehead.

00:39:09
I was like, oh, she's been wanting to do that for a long

00:39:11
time now. She had.

00:39:13
She had she. Was she was holding on to that?

00:39:16
She was. I've been wanting to kill you.

00:39:18
Bitch she was. And then she and she looked at

00:39:20
Carol and she was like, can I still go with you?

00:39:24
And at first, I really thought Carol was going to kill her.

00:39:27
And then I was like, Carol was probably like, no, because this

00:39:30
woman has basically been by herself with this other woman

00:39:35
for years. Anybody would probably go a

00:39:37
little nuts. No, let's go ahead and take her

00:39:39
with us. And you know, she, I mean, she

00:39:44
had good intentions, but of course Ash didn't know that.

00:39:48
She said Carol was like. Ash did not care.

00:39:52
He shot. Her in the neck with a flare

00:39:55
gun. I was like.

00:39:56
Yeah, he was. I was like, man, she didn't get

00:39:58
a chance. She didn't.

00:40:01
And I'm kind of glad Carol didn't say anything because he

00:40:03
was like, she was going to kill you.

00:40:04
Carol was like, because Can you imagine how bad he would have

00:40:08
felt? And Carol would have been like,

00:40:11
Oh no, she was the one who saved me.

00:40:13
He would have felt bad. And he was like, we got time for

00:40:16
this. We got to get to France.

00:40:17
Yeah, yeah, definitely. You know ain't determine from

00:40:21
what the fuck her mission is. She do not care.

00:40:23
She is looking for her bestie. That's it.

00:40:26
But when those two women came on screen, I just, I was thinking

00:40:34
like, OK, maybe these can be some allies.

00:40:37
Maybe they'll be a no. I should've just no.

00:40:41
Especially when they said they had been there for since before

00:40:45
everything fell. She was like, yeah, we were over

00:40:48
here studying, you know, doing research for our PhD.

00:40:51
We were supposed to be here for three, three months.

00:40:54
And all of a sudden we're here now for what, 1213141516 years?

00:41:00
Yeah, if if I'm there with with one person, they might not have

00:41:08
even been friends when they came over there.

00:41:11
They might have just been colleagues.

00:41:13
They might have been, you know, oh, let's do this research now.

00:41:17
You stuck with you. I'm stuck with you.

00:41:20
Oh, yeah. No.

00:41:21
And you probably don't. Like, how long did it take them

00:41:25
to realize what was happening in the real world if they were that

00:41:28
isolated? Because again, aside from those

00:41:31
walkers that were in the ground and the three that were walking,

00:41:35
you got the whole island, the whole country.

00:41:38
All. The mountains, everything, just

00:41:41
the one little camper you don't see evidence of.

00:41:45
No other houses, no other people.

00:41:47
And I'm not familiar with Greenland at all, so I don't

00:41:50
know what, I don't know what it's like over there, but you

00:41:53
can't tell me they were only two people there.

00:41:56
That's what I was. I was and I had to go look it up

00:41:59
and it's kind of hard to explain.

00:42:01
Like it is nowhere maybe the equivalent of 1/3 of Texas, OK,

00:42:09
Like you can fit Greenland in Texas and in the surrounding

00:42:13
parts. That's what it's basically

00:42:15
saying. Or it's closer to maybe Alaska.

00:42:18
So I'm like, but there ain't anybody.

00:42:20
But it may not be a lot of people the population there to

00:42:25
begin with. And then if they happen to come

00:42:30
across Hannah Yuen, they might in that part, Yeah.

00:42:36
Oh, they said it was reindeer and it looked like an animal

00:42:40
head. So we're going to go with that.

00:42:42
I don't. I don't even want to think about

00:42:45
them possibly being cannibals. We.

00:42:48
OK, it is a possibility that they could be like two people

00:42:52
left. The population is 5055 thousand.

00:42:58
In Greenland. Yeah, that was in 55 in

00:43:04
2024. OK.

00:43:08
And it might have been less in 2010 when this was when all of

00:43:12
this supposedly started. So and then the.

00:43:17
Capital of Greenland has 19 people, so I said the capital of

00:43:23
Greenland had 19 and you know it, it cleared out so many,

00:43:30
so yeah. Yeah.

00:43:32
And then also people who were probably closer to the capital

00:43:36
or closer to more populated areas, some of them probably

00:43:40
found a way to get off Greenland or to get out of there.

00:43:44
And you know, because they were kind of, they were in the

00:43:46
mountains, they were very remote.

00:43:49
Right. And it could be some people on

00:43:51
the other side because it is covered in ice and snow.

00:43:55
So you you just don't know them traveling, they didn't have a a

00:43:59
truck to travel with, so they didn't get so far.

00:44:02
So it may be some other people in Greenland, but just totally

00:44:04
opposite of them. Yeah, 'cause I was going to say

00:44:07
the distance that they traveled, I was like, y'all did all that

00:44:10
in the day. Y'all still had daylight left up

00:44:14
until you came back or until Carol and Hannah started going

00:44:19
to to find Ash. Like really, 'cause that was

00:44:23
quite a distance and you going up, up and down mountains, like,

00:44:27
you know. When they looked over the

00:44:30
mountain, the house looked this big, so you had a trick to get

00:44:34
there. Yeah, I was like, Hannah Yoon

00:44:36
might be used to that climb. Carol is not.

00:44:39
I can guarantee you that. No.

00:44:43
And one last one last fact, it's 75% of Greenland is covered with

00:44:48
permanent she device. So that's not even the part that

00:44:51
people can live 0. OK, so so yeah, no.

00:44:55
Yeah, so they was probably in the outskirts when they

00:44:57
research, so they wasn't. Yeah, yeah.

00:44:59
And everybody on the instant, you know, inside are like either

00:45:03
dead or they got the hell on while they could and they

00:45:06
probably stuck in the sea somewhere.

00:45:10
And they think it's about nobody who got left behind.

00:45:14
So I mean, I, I guess if you have to live out the rest of

00:45:20
your life in the zombie apocalypse, I probably would

00:45:24
rather be in the mountains. It just, it just might be more

00:45:28
peaceful. You got lakes there.

00:45:32
I, I, I don't know, as opposed to being in like Manhattan.

00:45:37
But yeah, no, those two, they showed up and I was just like,

00:45:43
oh, this is gonna be some shit. But I really thought it was

00:45:46
going to be like Carol being destructive.

00:45:48
And no, Carol was actually being a nice person.

00:45:52
She was trying to help somebody. I was trying to take her out

00:45:55
this time. I bet she don't give up that

00:45:57
crossbow again. I bet she don't.

00:46:01
Yeah. 'Cause that was almost terrible.

00:46:07
That was that. That was about to be like she

00:46:10
was going to be like, I came all the way to Greenland just to get

00:46:13
killed. Like I just survived how many

00:46:15
years amongst zombies, amongst cannibals, amongst just stupid.

00:46:23
Every villain and I had to come across seas to get killed.

00:46:28
I would have been mad if that happened, but it doesn't happen.

00:46:32
They make it to France, yay. And she actually makes it all

00:46:37
the way to Maison met, which I was like, only Carol.

00:46:44
But what do we say? What did we say last episode?

00:46:47
We said if Carol actually makes it to France, Madame Janay has

00:46:52
no if she makes it there, she gets a whiff of where Darrell

00:46:56
is. It's gonna be all.

00:46:58
It's gonna be old and. You know they.

00:47:01
Saying she got. So close and they keep saying

00:47:04
how how two people gonna do whatever how to be.

00:47:07
Did you not watch the ones that live?

00:47:09
You see them two people? Yeah.

00:47:11
So them two are the strongest people.

00:47:14
And now these other two strongest.

00:47:16
Please be for real. Be for real.

00:47:19
So, yeah, those two people don't, don't cause destruction.

00:47:23
Certifiable. Yes, I told these the family

00:47:27
traits, OK, Michelle said. I'm going to get Rick and I'm

00:47:33
going to tear down whatever I have to tear down.

00:47:36
Carol has to say I'm going to get Daryl.

00:47:39
I'm going to tear down whatever I have to tear down to get him

00:47:42
back. It's about to be on and.

00:47:44
Popping lie, cheat, steal doesn't matter.

00:47:47
It's about to be on and popping. Yeah, we have to remember Carol

00:47:51
is a chameleon. She really is.

00:47:54
Is she gonna make it fit? She gonna make it happen.

00:47:57
She gonna make it do what it need to do.

00:48:00
They're gonna be the one you well, who you need me to be

00:48:02
today. That's care.

00:48:03
Right. And then she just sit backs and

00:48:05
sit back and listen and then just decide what she needs to

00:48:07
do. That's it.

00:48:09
She playing chess while everybody else playing chess,

00:48:12
right? Say it again, right?

00:48:14
But the crazy thing again is she and Ash, they make it to they

00:48:20
make it to France with the airplane.

00:48:23
They land the airplane, no walkers come.

00:48:27
Nobody, nobody is paying attention to this noise.

00:48:31
It's just still. It's so but.

00:48:33
We already know there's no walkers.

00:48:35
We already surmise that, but it's so weird.

00:48:40
I think I know, but and if somebody did hear the noise,

00:48:45
they it it, it, they would probably brush it off.

00:48:48
It's like, you know, maybe it was a car, maybe it was a

00:48:52
something, you know what I mean? Cause kind of like the way Rick

00:48:54
was the only person who ever saw that helicopter, cause who else

00:48:58
would think, Oh my God, there's a plane coming from anywhere?

00:49:04
Yeah. From anywhere 'cause they're not

00:49:06
like the CRM, they don't have, they not like the CRM, they

00:49:09
don't have any, any helicopters. Yeah.

00:49:12
So hearing anything would be a fluke.

00:49:14
Like what? What was that?

00:49:17
So kind of like they did when they landed in Greenland, they

00:49:19
was like. Yeah.

00:49:22
But it's, it's just, it's still so strange to me because they

00:49:25
land the plane. There's no walkers.

00:49:27
Carol walks to Paris, there's no walkers up until she gets on

00:49:33
that street where the truck comes by and she's able to like,

00:49:37
punch a hole in one of the bags of food and, you know, lay

00:49:42
herself a, a, a trail to follow. But it it's just still so weird

00:49:50
that you can just walk around France and, and nothing like,

00:49:57
what were y'all doing with those walkers?

00:50:00
Y'all couldn't have taken all the walkers.

00:50:04
They did, yeah. You know what they was doing?

00:50:08
They was running an experiment. That the walkers was the one

00:50:11
thing they had in spades. Hey, go give me some more

00:50:13
walkers. Go give me some more walkers.

00:50:15
You know they ran out of walkers cause what did they do?

00:50:17
They ended up in America. Let me get some of y'all

00:50:19
walkers. But that is still so it are

00:50:22
going to me that they didn't you, you went through a whole

00:50:26
fucking country's worth of walkers.

00:50:28
Yeah, yeah. I mean, at least they got the

00:50:33
the cure to get rid of. They know how to clean out the

00:50:37
area, you know? They do now they're going

00:50:42
through people, so you know. Right.

00:50:45
At least it looks like Cameron made a friend, another friend,

00:50:51
this guy on the truck. But you know we.

00:50:53
Need no friends? Stay away from the living.

00:50:58
I can't say stress that enough. I'm so OK.

00:51:01
So here's here's my question. So I don't know my brain had a

00:51:07
brain freeze. What's his name again with the

00:51:08
plane? Where is he?

00:51:10
Ash. Ash.

00:51:11
OK, so Ash is waiting for her to come back.

00:51:13
We going to be in season 3. Ash still going to be in that

00:51:16
plane a year later. No 'cause she I know, but he

00:51:21
going to be we just got there out.

00:51:23
It's going to be two years later season 6 and as they go run and

00:51:28
be like Ash Ash that little kid family outside just waiting for

00:51:33
you care I. Can't leave.

00:51:35
You'll come back. I can't leave now.

00:51:36
My family need me. I'll teach you how to fly the

00:51:41
plane. So you can get where you need to

00:51:43
go. Boo.

00:51:47
I swear Carol made her way to Maze on that and, you know,

00:51:52
she's got to sit there and be looking like, OK, because the

00:51:56
the way she followed the truck, the truck stopped and there was

00:52:00
like a homeless guy sitting on the the on the sidewalk.

00:52:05
And of course they rough him up a little bit and then they're

00:52:07
like, you hungry, you hungry. They put him in the truck.

00:52:10
And when they get to Maison met, they're putting out all of this

00:52:14
fresh food, fresh vegetables, fresh nuts and everything.

00:52:18
And they're telling the people go, you know, to go at it.

00:52:22
And then they're like, OK, so this is what this is the promise

00:52:26
of Maze I met. This is what Manage Janae is

00:52:28
promising you. You can get fresh food, You can

00:52:31
get a warm bed, you can even get wine.

00:52:33
But we need some volunteers. They don't tell them what

00:52:36
they're volunteering for. And I was just like, I already

00:52:40
know, you know, they're about to do some live experiments.

00:52:44
You know, it, these people, they just, Yep, I volunteer.

00:52:50
I volunteer. This don't bode well for you

00:52:56
blindly volunteering for you don't know what 'cause they

00:52:59
offer you a little bit of food, baby, baby, I mean that.

00:53:07
And this give me a clue. Give me a clue and.

00:53:16
Then y'all taking everybody, putting them in separate trucks.

00:53:19
Wait what is it though? What?

00:53:21
What makes you determine what what truck is what?

00:53:24
And you know what I think because the guy that she met,

00:53:30
what did he say his name was? I can't remember, but his

00:53:35
husband was in the other truck. Yeah, he mentioned something

00:53:40
about his husband having problems with his lungs.

00:53:43
He was like, it's getting harder and harder for him to breathe.

00:53:45
I have a feeling they put the healthy people in one truck

00:53:48
because remember Carol was trying to sneak onto that truck

00:53:51
and when she got caught by the soldier, she roughed the soldier

00:53:54
up. And Madam Janae's right hand

00:53:56
woman, she was like, oh, she's got guts, OK, put her in the

00:53:59
other truck. I think she put the strong

00:54:02
people or the non sick people, like the people who can be of

00:54:05
use, she put them in one truck and the people who are sick or

00:54:09
in the other truck, they're probably going to use the sick

00:54:12
people for experiments. That's what I feel like.

00:54:16
And then like I said, the people on Carol's truck, those are the

00:54:19
people, OK, y'all are going to contribute to whatever it is

00:54:23
they have people doing that maize on Met where there is, you

00:54:27
know, she might have them working in the kitchen, she

00:54:31
might have them cleaning up, she might have them going out.

00:54:35
I, I don't know, 'cause we don't really know what she has people

00:54:39
doing except for, you know, the people we see she has

00:54:44
experimenting. So I don't know.

00:54:46
But yeah, that, that second truck, I'm, I'm not hopeful for

00:54:50
them. I have a feeling they're gonna

00:54:53
be experimented on because she still has to figure out, she

00:54:58
still has to figure out how to get the serum right.

00:55:01
Because the last time she tried to use it in the in the fighting

00:55:05
pit with Darryl, it didn't go so well for her.

00:55:08
Yeah. So I was just like, OK, but

00:55:12
Carol is close. She she actually, she found her

00:55:17
way closer to Darryl way quicker than I expected her to.

00:55:20
I thought this would take maybe another episode, but no, Carol

00:55:26
was like, she's like a she's look.

00:55:27
She's like a Bloodhound. Like, where's my Darryl?

00:55:30
Where's my dad? Oh, Darryl might be in this

00:55:32
direct. I didn't think like see like I

00:55:36
said from the beginning I felt like they should have did it the

00:55:39
way they did the ones that live and have met in the 1st.

00:55:41
So I was thinking 3 episodes. I think is is good enough.

00:55:45
To to get him to get her close to him.

00:55:47
Now what? I don't.

00:55:49
Feel happening. I still feel like it'll be

00:55:51
towards the end and only reason why I feel how many episodes in

00:56:00
the middle? How many episodes 6/6 and we're

00:56:05
on episode this is 2 that we're talking about OK so there's 6

00:56:10
episode 2 I'm going to say that it's towards the end of four and

00:56:18
then we have 5:00 and 6:00 with them together.

00:56:21
I because I think it's kind of cool that we just kind of given

00:56:26
just Carol's side of things and her getting in this new

00:56:29
environment. And that's why I felt like they

00:56:31
wouldn't do it at the beginning because we need a we need a

00:56:34
build up for Carol, like Grant. I was glad to see her in the

00:56:38
first episode. But I think, you know what, Rick

00:56:43
and Michonne is different, especially because of the fact

00:56:46
that they are a couple. They have children together.

00:56:49
It's like this woman left her children to go find him.

00:56:52
So the payoff for that reunion being so quick, it's like it

00:56:57
wasn't that quick for us. This has been eight years that

00:57:00
they have been separated. So the way that they did that I

00:57:04
think was perfect. I think if Darrell Dixon, the

00:57:07
the show tried to copy that or tried to emulate that, like

00:57:10
almost exactly, it just wouldn't have had the same impact.

00:57:15
I think for it to happen that early, I'm kind of like

00:57:18
Michelle, maybe the next episode or maybe the episode after that,

00:57:21
maybe if they meet up then or if they what was it?

00:57:27
I think Casey said if they get close enough to where it's like

00:57:30
ships passing in the night, but not to do they miss each other,

00:57:35
then I I'd be OK. And then maybe, you know, the

00:57:38
big reunion episode 5. I don't think it'll happen in

00:57:41
episode 6. So I would say maybe 5 is the

00:57:44
latest that I see a reunion with them because you got to show

00:57:48
them being badasses together. That's just it's.

00:57:50
Carried and we have to see. Some of that.

00:57:54
And the ones we live, we wanted to see Rick and Rashon like the

00:57:57
first episode get together. We needed to see that.

00:57:59
We didn't need to see the the build up of what his life was

00:58:03
like and her life was like. We already know what we needed

00:58:06
his life a little bit because we didn't know what his life was

00:58:08
like. We already know what her life

00:58:10
was like. But like Carol for people again,

00:58:13
who may not have been really watching The Walking Dead, now

00:58:16
they can see how badass Carol is and how Darrell is badass.

00:58:21
But he's so caring and loving and I need him to get over that.

00:58:24
But that's OK. I.

00:58:28
Need to bring some of that redneck back like.

00:58:30
I'm on now of. Like Daryl this way, but but I

00:58:37
do, but I don't like it that it that is to the point where he

00:58:41
don't I, you know, I keep thinking about the people back

00:58:45
home and wondering if they're thinking of me.

00:58:47
Really, really, really. Did those words really come out

00:58:51
your mouth? Yeah.

00:58:54
Like so so Judith, who has known you her entire life.

00:58:59
You're just gone and missing. We don't even know she's going

00:59:01
to be like, OK, whatever, whatever.

00:59:08
I can't even say what I want to say to that.

00:59:12
Just I just, I need, I need Daryl to get a grip.

00:59:19
I understand you may have found something to stay in France for.

00:59:23
You may have found something to believe in to fight for,

00:59:26
whatever. OK, that's all well and good,

00:59:29
but you got responsibilities back home.

00:59:33
Michelle left you in charge of her children.

00:59:35
She didn't expect you to trip your trip your ass all the way

00:59:38
to France. Granted, you didn't either, but

00:59:43
it's time for you to start thinking about going home.

00:59:45
Seriously. And I, I don't know if it takes

00:59:48
Isabel saying, you know what, me and Laurent will go with you,

00:59:51
OK, whatever. Because all last season, all the

00:59:55
first episode, everybody just kept trying to say, well, maybe

00:59:58
your place is here, maybe your place is here, you know, maybe

01:00:01
we need you here, blah, blah, blah.

01:00:03
OK, you know what? Now it's obvious that now that

01:00:07
y'all have him, y'all don't really want him because you

01:00:09
don't want what he's offering. He's trying to teach Laurent how

01:00:12
to. How to protect himself.

01:00:15
He's trying to teach Laurent how to be a child.

01:00:17
Y'all don't want him here to do that, so just let this

01:00:20
motherfucker go home. Y'all ain't got to kill him.

01:00:22
He's been trying to go back to the states forever.

01:00:24
Send his ass back home. Find him a ride.

01:00:27
Find him a boat. And he'd have been gone.

01:00:31
Right, right. But I know the problem is

01:00:33
they're like, OK, Laurent will follow him.

01:00:36
And we can't say that he won't because the first time Darrell

01:00:39
tried to get the fuck on, Laurent followed his ass.

01:00:43
So yeah, I'm, I'm just saying they, they put true valuable.

01:00:49
But y'all ain't got to go and kill the man.

01:00:53
I I thought y'all were supposed to be God fearing people.

01:00:55
I thought like really? The ease at which y'all will be

01:01:00
man, The ease at which y'all will be backstabbers.

01:01:03
Not only that, OK, I'm not the most religious person, but I

01:01:07
have studied the Bible. Last time I checked the first

01:01:10
commandment was thou shall not kill.

01:01:13
The fuck are y'all doing? You really sent your people in

01:01:18
there to kill him thinking he wasn't going to pay attention?

01:01:23
You weren't expecting Isabel. Isabel was like, oh she works at

01:01:27
the nest. She works in the stables.

01:01:30
Wait, he's from the nest? What what the hell is going on

01:01:36
at that point? I feel like they should it

01:01:37
should have clicked to them that Laurent wasn't there, But I

01:01:40
think they was just so bewildered about what was going

01:01:45
on. Falu had to be the one be like,

01:01:47
look, go, Laurent's not here. But I will tell you this Low

01:01:54
saying had one thing right. He was like, we're still going

01:01:56
to have to deal with Darrell when he gets back.

01:01:58
Oh, you think understatement. And your girl tried to have him

01:02:03
killed. Now, we'll say this, Lozan.

01:02:06
Lozan looked pretty pissed off about that.

01:02:09
So I so I think that that completely took him by surprise.

01:02:13
That was not something that he planned.

01:02:16
OK, so I give you a little bit of, I'll give you a little bit

01:02:20
of wiggle room right now, Lozanne, but I'm still not

01:02:23
trusting you because you knew that Laurent hadn't been taken.

01:02:27
You let these people go off in your vehicles, which it looks

01:02:34
like they may not have taken the vehicles back because they

01:02:38
don't. Forget, don't forget.

01:02:40
They handed Daryl a handful of blanks.

01:02:45
So I'm just Lozanne is like, so there's this line and the people

01:02:58
who are above it, Daryl, Isabelle, Fallu, Sylvie.

01:03:05
Because Sylvie was like, she saw that woman putting that stuff on

01:03:08
the tray that she usually feeds Laurent.

01:03:11
Sylvie's like, let me go see now the fact that she got caught.

01:03:20
I was just like, because she kept looking around.

01:03:22
I'm like, baby, it's not that many people left on the island

01:03:25
right now. You know, they got people

01:03:27
looking out for Laurent. This is a trap.

01:03:34
I just hope at. What point would you figure it?

01:03:37
Out right and pull around. He just sat there like when when

01:03:44
when he realized still we found him.

01:03:46
It's like he was happy. And then when he heard low

01:03:49
saying, his whole demeanor just changed.

01:03:52
He was just like, I see, you know what?

01:03:55
This boy knows that they have something awful plan for him.

01:03:58
And he probably at this point is just like, I don't even care.

01:04:04
He can't be who he wants to be. He probably can't be who they

01:04:10
want him to be because, again, do we really think that he would

01:04:15
survive a bite? I mean, he's still a human

01:04:19
little boy. Like we're going what they say

01:04:24
in the very first damn season, we're all infected.

01:04:27
He probably even more so because you came out of a Walker.

01:04:33
Everybody's already infected. Infected.

01:04:36
So what? He, of course.

01:04:38
He go, he gonna die. But see, I think, I think it's

01:04:41
the it's the thing about him coming out of a Walker and

01:04:46
having no, you know, nothing wrong with him in that sense.

01:04:50
But again, Laura is not a a regular boy.

01:04:53
We've said this before. He had there is some kind of 6th

01:04:57
sense about him. And, you know, we talked about

01:05:03
this because if you remember the way they used to show us the

01:05:07
Walker transitions in the very first season, it's like when

01:05:11
they're changing, they're still having memories of their own

01:05:15
life interspersed with visions of, you know, Walker faces and

01:05:21
eating and all that other stuff. So I don't know there is

01:05:27
something different about him. It's something different about

01:05:30
him and five of the kids in the neighborhood.

01:05:33
So I mean really, I need to see the literature and everything

01:05:39
about him being this special that he would survive a bite

01:05:42
even coming from a zombie Mama. Yeah, Mark, I guess we'll see.

01:05:49
I guess we'll see, because I. Think him being and Alicia and

01:05:54
getting bitten suffering an acho system.

01:06:00
Yeah, but even, but even with Alicia, that was different

01:06:04
because she did cut her arm off. So she probably had just a

01:06:07
little bit of the infection, but she, you know, but also she

01:06:14
might not have had that infection.

01:06:15
She probably had an infection because she cut her fucking arm

01:06:17
off. With a dirty knife.

01:06:19
With a dirty knife, yeah, that could have just been an

01:06:23
infection. Just a regular nasty tetanus,

01:06:27
whatever. That is true.

01:06:31
So I don't know that it it looks like they're going to do the

01:06:33
ceremony in the next episode. So I don't know how that's about

01:06:38
to work. You already have Daryl, Falou

01:06:40
and Isabel outside of the Mont Saint Michelle.

01:06:45
And granted, it's not Daryl and Carol, but I will say this,

01:06:55
Falou has shown us that he can hold his own.

01:07:00
And that's the other thing I'm really worried about because I

01:07:03
really like this character because he is one of those

01:07:07
characters that is older who has been around, who has, you know,

01:07:12
survived all of this stuff. Please don't kill him.

01:07:16
Can can we keep can we keep one older person?

01:07:20
I mean, even when Herschel, they cut his leg off, so he couldn't

01:07:25
really do too much. Can we just keep one person?

01:07:28
But he survived. He did.

01:07:30
I'm to the God damn governor. But we ain't gonna talk about

01:07:33
that. Yeah.

01:07:34
Can we just keep, can we just keep Falou?

01:07:36
Falou is a very good asset to have.

01:07:38
He's a very good ally to have. He's loyal.

01:07:43
And I think, you know, especially with what just

01:07:46
happened with one of the people he's been closest to.

01:07:50
He's. Even probably like, OK, you know

01:07:53
what? If that's what this thing is,

01:07:55
this is really a call. I ain't got time for this shit.

01:07:57
Let's grab Lavont. Let's go.

01:08:01
But I'm going to say this, we said this back in the beginning

01:08:05
with the original show. Anytime somebody had hope.

01:08:09
They died, so that's. True.

01:08:13
Didn't nobody ask you your opinion?

01:08:16
I'm just saying, I'm just saying we already know how they go.

01:08:20
As soon as somebody be like, Oh yes, I see your future, you

01:08:23
going to you did, you did. And the only reason we're not

01:08:26
going to lose Carol and Darrell because they named them the

01:08:28
title of the show. So so anybody else is fair game.

01:08:33
Literally everybody else is fair game.

01:08:36
I can tell you who does need Isabel thing or two.

01:08:42
Like everybody's up for grabs at this point except for two

01:08:44
people. Two people.

01:08:46
It's for show sake. They might get their ass

01:08:48
whooped, they might get beat up, they might get, you know, shot,

01:08:50
stabbed, but they're going to survive everybody else.

01:08:57
I feel like we need to have a Deadpool like who?

01:08:59
Who is going to survive? Besides Veron Care, they name

01:09:07
can't be on the list. Oh, absolutely not.

01:09:10
But like seriously, I, I kind of I'm kind of going with who was

01:09:15
the case? Oh no, it was Michelle.

01:09:17
You said that Darrell and Isabelle and kiss.

01:09:20
So now it's like. She don't die.

01:09:24
Dale got to kiss Adele. 'Cause I guess in a in a sense,

01:09:29
that's one. That's one good thing about him

01:09:31
and Connie not getting here. You say that.

01:09:34
Whatever, because she's she's safe.

01:09:38
She I mean she was missing. She look she was a victim of a

01:09:43
cave in and her ass survived. She was walking around with

01:09:47
walkers that her ass survived. She went into that God damn

01:09:51
scary house with the cannibal feral children and she survived.

01:09:56
Let her keep surviving. If if it means that her and

01:09:59
Darryl can't be together, so be it.

01:10:02
But I'm just at this point where I'm like, and you know, let me

01:10:08
back it up a little bit. I will say this.

01:10:11
So the two relationships that we have now confirmed with Darryl

01:10:17
throughout The Walking Dead universe, these are these are

01:10:19
both women who are outsiders. And maybe that's the reason why

01:10:24
he's never tried pursuing anything with Carol or he's

01:10:27
never tried pursuing anything with Connie.

01:10:29
Like these are people that he is very close to, you know?

01:10:32
And Daryl seems to me like he would be one of those people.

01:10:35
If he's in a relationship, he's going to be all in.

01:10:39
But if something happens in that relationship does not end up

01:10:42
well, it's going to be awkward. And I don't think Daryl wants

01:10:46
that. There was like, look, I just, I

01:10:48
just rather have them here, have them close to me, love them and

01:10:53
just, you know, we just be friends.

01:10:57
Because if something happens to you and I, you know, and maybe

01:11:00
it could be also if something happens to you and you turn into

01:11:03
a Walker or if I have to kill you, I'm not going to be able to

01:11:06
deal with that. With Leah, that was different

01:11:09
though, you know, because one, they were already broken up to

01:11:12
she had already betrayed him, and three, she was trying to

01:11:16
kill his sister. He was like, no, I'm we, what we

01:11:19
not about to do is do this, But I, I don't know.

01:11:27
I as as much as I don't really care about Daryl and Isabelle

01:11:34
Perry. I don't want to see her die.

01:11:37
I don't want to see Laurent die and I don't want to see Faloud

01:11:39
die. But unfortunately, those that

01:11:42
aren't, well, no. And Sylvie, but OK, I will say

01:11:45
this. Sylvie has already been caught.

01:11:48
There's no telling what they're going to do with her.

01:11:50
You know, she she's been caught. She knows what they plan on

01:11:54
doing. She knows they lied about

01:11:55
Laurent being missing. So I just, I'm worried.

01:12:04
I I'm very worried at this point so I don't know.

01:12:11
Nobody's safe. I don't like it except.

01:12:15
Caroline Daryl. I don't like it.

01:12:17
I don't. True.

01:12:19
That's the only. In my in my Chris Evans voice.

01:12:21
I don't like it. I don't like it.

01:12:25
I don't. But anyway, we need to become.

01:12:30
Hollywood writers so we can tell them what to do.

01:12:34
We clearly picked the wrong profession.

01:12:36
But you know what? And I was thinking this too, and

01:12:39
this is something I think Casey and I said, I think we were

01:12:41
having like an off conversation and we were talking about the

01:12:45
possibility of Isabel and Darrell because again, I started

01:12:50
seeing it especially last episode because they're giving

01:12:53
each other all these different little looks.

01:12:55
I was like, I already know where this is going, but I also feel

01:12:59
like this. So we know that in the world of

01:13:05
The Walking Dead fandom, there are very there are two very

01:13:09
clear camps as far as if there is to end up with anybody who it

01:13:14
should be. You have your people who want

01:13:17
Carol and Daryl together. They are like rabid.

01:13:20
They are like very forceful or they have to be together.

01:13:24
That's the only pairing. And then you have the people who

01:13:27
want him and Connie to get together, who I will say is

01:13:32
equally as well. No, I will not because I no, I

01:13:38
have been on Twitter. I will not say that they are

01:13:40
equally as rabbit, but they are not as passionate.

01:13:43
I will say that they are passionate about it and I don't

01:13:46
know, maybe maybe the writers just felt like, you know what,

01:13:50
we're just going to go somewhere neutral so we don't have to deal

01:13:53
with this. If we got to piss somebody off,

01:13:55
we just piss both of them off. But at least at least nobody can

01:14:00
say we're we're favoring one or the other.

01:14:02
I That's true, but the cop. Out but the ones who really need

01:14:06
Carol and Darrell together. I need each other to think that

01:14:11
there are so many deep relationship that is past a

01:14:14
sexual relationship and that's the relationship they have.

01:14:18
Yeah, they best friend. They got best friend bracelets.

01:14:21
Don't tarnish that. I mean, it's like they are like

01:14:25
family too. I mean, it's just it goes beyond

01:14:29
everything. Yeah, I feel that way.

01:14:31
Let them have their love interest, but they will always

01:14:34
have each other. That's some totally different.

01:14:36
They can be soul mates and not be in a relationship, right?

01:14:40
Remember, Carol was with King Ezekiel for how long?

01:14:43
And I and I, OK, what was that? I love that.

01:14:45
Pairing, yeah, that was great. She was good with it.

01:14:49
That's what I'm saying. And still, who was her person?

01:14:53
Damn. OK, Thank you.

01:14:55
So we can have this people. We can have it.

01:14:58
Platonic friendships are a real thing.

01:15:00
Yeah, and it's OK. But yeah, I just feel like they

01:15:05
they kind of put them together as like a a cop out.

01:15:11
Yeah, but don't put these two people together.

01:15:15
That's the oh, it is nasty. It's it's showing again on my

01:15:19
screen. I don't.

01:15:20
Like it? Yes.

01:15:23
It's just, it seems so forced, don't it?

01:15:26
Yeah, it seems so awkward. Because I don't even think Daryl

01:15:29
be thinking about that stuff right now.

01:15:31
He's not thinking like that. I don't know, is it it just, it

01:15:36
felt very weird to me. Like I almost can look at Daryl

01:15:40
and Isabel as having that type of close relationship, that

01:15:45
close friendship that I, I don't see them as romantic.

01:15:50
I see where they're trying to make it that way.

01:15:52
And I've seen it, like I said, from episode 1, season 1, but I

01:15:56
don't feel it. It just does not feel right to

01:15:59
me. It does feel a little forced.

01:16:03
A little. A little voice a.

01:16:07
Little I'm just saying no. OK, so the reason why I say a

01:16:10
little, no, the reason why I say a little is because I've said

01:16:13
this before. I feel like Daryl at his core is

01:16:19
one of those people who can connect with anybody.

01:16:23
You know what I'm saying? And I feel like because if you,

01:16:28
if you look at his friendships, even on The Walking Dead, if you

01:16:32
if you look at it with half an eye, you can see where it could

01:16:36
have possibly went that way with Maggie or it could have possibly

01:16:39
went that way with Rosita. He just has this way of

01:16:42
connecting with the female characters.

01:16:45
And I think some people read that as romantic and I just

01:16:50
don't, I don't feel that way. Like Daryl can meet someone and

01:16:56
make them feel very comfortable, make them feel safe, make them

01:17:00
feel protected. But because that happens a lot

01:17:03
with the female characters, people are always shipping.

01:17:05
And I'm just like me personally. Daryl doesn't have to be in a

01:17:10
relationship, but absolutely. Not.

01:17:13
But he has that kind of like, I'm going to be honest, I could

01:17:17
have seen Daryl with Jesus. I could have seen Daryl with

01:17:21
Aaron or with Eric. He just has that kind of ease

01:17:25
with everyone. You know what I'm saying?

01:17:29
So he doesn't have to be in a relationship to me.

01:17:32
Everybody doesn't need a relationship.

01:17:34
Everybody doesn't. Some people are OK without it.

01:17:37
Some people are OK just, you know, having their friends or

01:17:40
whatever. And to me that kind of sort of

01:17:43
seems like they were like he might have a buddy on the side

01:17:46
for every once in a while. But I don't even.

01:17:49
He's just always seem like an ace character to me.

01:17:52
Exactly. I was just going to say that he

01:17:54
don't even seem like he's interested on him with anybody

01:17:58
he runs it from. So even when they had that that

01:18:01
that scene, the that episode with him and Leah, even that was

01:18:05
kind of like, well, OK, I could see it, but we, we didn't need

01:18:11
it. You know, it kind of explained

01:18:13
the gap of, you know, where he was and what he went through.

01:18:16
So that they gave us a little back story.

01:18:17
So when Leah showed the fuck back up, we knew.

01:18:20
Oh, yeah. You know, but even that episode,

01:18:23
even if we didn't have the romantical part of that episode,

01:18:29
or maybe he did meet her but didn't fall in love and, you

01:18:32
know, they just kept that distant communal relationship,

01:18:37
that would have been fine. I don't think we needed to see

01:18:41
him with somebody. I don't think we did.

01:18:43
But I. Think at the same time, maybe,

01:18:48
maybe a character like him needed that from, and I'm saying

01:18:52
from these specific women, because again, these are not

01:18:55
women that are part of his everyday life.

01:18:57
These are not women that are part of the group.

01:18:59
They're not part of the the inner circle, the family.

01:19:03
So like with Leah, he was at a point where he was feeling lost.

01:19:11
You know, Rick had been gone. He'd been looking for Rick.

01:19:15
Michelle was kind of distancing herself from everyone because of

01:19:18
everything that happened with Jocelyn and everything.

01:19:21
And I think he was just lost. And with Leah, he could be a

01:19:25
different version of who he is. You know what I'm saying?

01:19:28
He he can, he could come to somebody and be a different

01:19:32
person or even try to be a different person, not the same

01:19:35
person that everyone else is expecting that call.

01:19:38
So I can see the appeal of that. And I can, you know, even

01:19:42
watching that episode with her, it felt kind of strange at

01:19:45
first, but I was like, OK, I can see it.

01:19:49
Daryl needs somebody. And right now the people that he

01:19:52
is close to, those relationships are either, I won't say non

01:19:56
existent, but you know, Rick was gone.

01:19:59
Michelle was kind of off dealing with her own grief being

01:20:03
pregnant. His Carol weren't really, you

01:20:06
know, they were still kind of estranged a little bit even

01:20:09
though they were OK, but it just wasn't what it used to be.

01:20:14
He probably just needed something different.

01:20:17
And Leah was somebody who did not know him, did not know who

01:20:21
he used to be and and could probably offer that to him.

01:20:25
Same thing with Isabel, like Isabel, I think sees him, but

01:20:29
she's also, she sees the ways that he's changing.

01:20:34
Being over there in France. I mean, you can't go even in a

01:20:36
zombie apocalypse. You can't go to another country

01:20:39
and not be changed, Right? OK.

01:20:42
And you have you have these different experiences.

01:20:44
You, you meet this kid who is not somebody that you

01:20:48
practically known since birth. It's a whole different

01:20:51
experience. We're seeing a different side of

01:20:52
Darrell Dixon. And maybe his attraction to her

01:20:57
is also that same thing. This is somebody who knows

01:20:59
nothing about me. I don't have to be a, a certain

01:21:02
way. I don't have to, I don't have

01:21:05
to, you know, I don't have to put on the front.

01:21:08
I don't have to always be brave. I can be a little vulnerable.

01:21:11
Maybe that's something that he's looking for.

01:21:13
I can, I can see that. I can understand that.

01:21:16
But again, I just don't feel like it's necessary, especially

01:21:20
you got all this other stuff going on.

01:21:22
And not to mention why you falling in love with somebody

01:21:25
when you know you're going to have to go back home?

01:21:29
I mean, and granted, I understand we can't control our

01:21:31
hearts. We can't control who we love.

01:21:33
We can't control none of that. But it's just going to make it

01:21:36
more difficult when you got other people at home who are

01:21:41
waiting for you, who may be looking for you.

01:21:44
Granted, nobody knows you're in France.

01:21:47
They could be out in the States getting into some kind of danger

01:21:51
because they're out there looking for you because they

01:21:53
know you wouldn't abandoned them.

01:21:55
But I feel like in a sense that's kind of what you're doing

01:21:58
when you when you're making a decision to stay in France.

01:22:00
You are basically abandoning your people.

01:22:04
And even that's just something I don't feel like Darryl would do.

01:22:08
Yeah, and even. He said.

01:22:10
I wonder, like you, that keep being his reference point.

01:22:13
I wonder if the people back home are thinking about me.

01:22:16
Duh. Yes, they thinking about you

01:22:23
like be for real. Yeah, you got two children.

01:22:27
I. Also have like.

01:22:28
Memory. That's all RJ knows too.

01:22:31
Yes. Darryl.

01:22:32
Yes. Yes.

01:22:34
Yeah. He's thinking about you, honey.

01:22:36
Yeah. Yeah.

01:22:37
They like then like his dad. I will.

01:22:39
I will say that is probably the one dumbest line in all of The

01:22:44
Walking Dead history. I wonder if the people back home

01:22:49
are thinking. You know what?

01:22:51
I'm not gonna say this again 'cause I'm gonna get mad now.

01:22:53
This friend then bamboozled a man to.

01:22:57
Fly her to France. Right.

01:23:01
I wonder what he gonna say. All kind of lies.

01:23:04
Do you think she thinking about you son 'cause you talk to her?

01:23:08
She told you somebody came home so she's letting you know.

01:23:12
Hey, bring your ass. Right, right.

01:23:16
So what are we talking about? We're not going to keep on with

01:23:19
this because it's just going to make me mad.

01:23:23
It's just going to make me mad. I mean, maybe that maybe that

01:23:27
was just a curious kiss. Maybe that was just the OK,

01:23:29
let's just get this out our system and we going gone about

01:23:32
our business. I I don't see anything hot and

01:23:36
heavy happening here, especially with the fact that the nest is

01:23:40
trying to, you know, do a ceremony to get a Walker to bite

01:23:44
Laurent to prove that he's a male.

01:23:47
We don't have time for nothing but beyond the kids.

01:23:50
So you know what if that's if they just needed to get it out

01:23:53
their system just to be like, OK, you know what, we need to

01:23:55
acknowledge whatever this is between us, this kid, OK, it's

01:23:59
done. It's oh, OK, that's fine.

01:24:01
But I just I'm I'm not buying the relationship.

01:24:04
I'm not buying that romance. It's just no, not when y'all and

01:24:11
teased us with Darrell and and Connie for 50 million years.

01:24:17
This man went out and found a sign language book so he could

01:24:20
learn how to Yeah, anyway, that's good and final thoughts

01:24:23
on this episode before we start going.

01:24:27
No, did we even talk about everything in this episode?

01:24:29
Oh, excuse me. No, I'm sorry.

01:24:32
So yeah, Cadrone, I'm so sorry that dude she but she she bout

01:24:39
to. No no, I'm going to give do his

01:24:42
props because he is holding on to the secret baby.

01:24:48
They fucking him up, his face all swole cuts all over

01:24:52
everywhere. Corkscrew.

01:24:54
In the hand, she's like, you going to tell us where the nest

01:24:57
is and he just looking at her. So I was like, OK, you know

01:25:00
what? I think we talked about this.

01:25:02
We were like, yeah, Quadrone might be getting a redemption

01:25:04
story, or he might switch. Yeah, I think he's definitely

01:25:07
switched sides now. Absolutely.

01:25:10
So yes. So let's take one.

01:25:11
Corkscrew and I'm done. So, yeah, I don't know.

01:25:16
Carol's on her way. Carol.

01:25:18
Carol might. Carol might, can save them.

01:25:20
Who knows? She might be like, oh, they

01:25:22
torturing you? You must know something about my

01:25:24
friend. Yo you over here with your ass

01:25:27
wolves? Because I mean, he's got cuts

01:25:30
going all across his chest and. His eyes swole up.

01:25:35
Wait a second. But you notice what Madam

01:25:39
Janae's people, they were looking very uncomfortable with

01:25:44
the fact that he was being tortured.

01:25:46
Her second hand, yeah. Was like she was like Marion.

01:25:49
He he doesn't know anything. And even when she walked out the

01:25:53
room, she stopped and and then kept on walking.

01:25:57
I was like, Madam Janette might have some issues with her people

01:26:03
'cause even the ones standing out, standing guard outside,

01:26:07
they're sitting there like, like, why the fuck is she doing

01:26:12
this? Like, is it worth all of this?

01:26:15
I I don't know, she must not be as.

01:26:19
You gotta keep her. Mind popular as as she thinks

01:26:23
she is. Carol Cummings 1-2, Carols

01:26:30
coming. OK.
