Not a single walker this episode. That doesn't even seem possible.

HATE Madison. Uh Oh is it the bros??? hahahahahhaha

Oh yeah, Madison good time to lay it on Alicia. It doesn't matter now. Why are you doing this? What a moron.

Wait, it feels like a year? (at least to the viewer) How long has it been?

Alicia has just moved up a trillion notches in my eyes.

The lack of walkers makes this a show primarily about the relationships and pondering where you failed (as a parent) instead of always in constant fear about survival. There is no tension. They talk about showers. I swear on TWD, a shower was a super, supreme luxury. Remember Rick, Morgan and Dwayne?

Where are all the walkers? Shouldn't there be a few here and there?

Chris, I knew it. Travis is gonna kill Chris.

Yeah why aren't they living in the house?

I think that you guys are right. Travis either killed Chris or let him go with those guys.

Madison to Travis, "Do you want a shower"? That is all that she can say?

See what you did Madison?

Yes, you are right that RA didn't tell them the truth, which would have helped things a lot. I would really like to know more backstory on the three and maybe why they are the way they are, esp. RA. Would the 800 acres make them a big farm there? I don't know what is big or not. Sounds big, but I am not sure in respect to farms.

Yes, good points, but there ARE places in Nevada where it is legal and is legal in other parts of the world as well. I am not trying to be offensive and I certainly understand the concept that "no" means "no" and that sex workers get taken advantage of, but I was wondering about the technicalities IF it is legal and if the prostitute consented in the context of the show and how they are going to play out the story line. Where does it cross the line, besides for a statement of "no"? I am not sure if they are going to explore these nuances which would be of interest, and instead go with the trite, she's pregnant. I had this thought that this is a girl that Davis has been seeing regularly and it is about more than just that night, but we will see in the story.

Agree. I am a 1964 and while I really do not identify with Baby Boomers, I also do not identify with the GenXer's either. I used to run a music store during th e 1990s when Pearl Jam and Nirvana were popular and the Friends TV show was too, I could not relate. I was sort of beyond that Seattle Grunge thing. I felt too old to be in that generation. Sigh, I am a part of a "lost" generation.

Some random thoughts about the episode: 1) If a prostitute is hired for sex, and is paid (they always want the money first, right?), they show up to fulfill their end of the agreement, then how can it be rape? Even if she gets drunk, a business transaction has already been put in place, which she agreed to. I think that we will find out more as the story unfolds, there must be more to what happened, which makes it rape in her eyes. Perhaps she only agreed to sex with certain players, or a certain number of times, or certain ways and that was violated, therefore it is rape. I really hope they explore this in a deep way. I normally am 100% on the side of any person who says "no" to sex, and is then coerced or forced, which then constitutes sexual assault. However, when one is paid and willingly does this for a living (not talking about teenagers or people in sex trafficking rings who cannot get out but want to), I wonder what the rules are and how they are going to present that. 2) Since Charley is paying to start the farm up, and they know that RA has to hold down that job for his parole, AND they already know that they are late in planting the crops, WHY in the hell try to start the farm this season? Why not prepare and do all the things necessary to start NEXT season and have a fantastic start? Get RA some training, it will allow for the equipment/seed to be purchased and prepared in the correct timeline and order, it gives RA time to settle in his job and prepare for next season. If money is NOT the issue (and Charely just threw $100,000 to this effort), why start when you are setting up to fail in a major way? They know that RA cannot be there as a full-time farmer at this time, then why put this extra pressure on him? RA doesn't know what he doesn't know yet. He is head-strong and naive. He needs time. Why not wait and prepare for next year? That would give everyone time to settle into what is happening. 3) Blue remains a cutie.

She seemed really excited. She deserved it too. I was so hoping that at the end of her speech that she would have morphed into Helena and said something like, "I dedicate this to my Sestras". THAT would have broken the internet.

Wow, cannot believe it. This and Mr. Robot, awesome.

Running the generators to light up the whole hotel, to make ice, to use water, to (likely) have air conditioning, is the height of arrogance and lack of foresight. Man, this shit will run out soon, rationing is needed.

I was wondering how/where Ofelia learned all that stuff.

You tell her Alicia!!!!!!

Nick, already wheeling and dealing.

Well, in the entire ZA, it can ONLY be Nick. Madison has such a one track mind and preference for Nick. There is NO one else alive ever, that could possibly be American with ratty hair.

And ICE!

So Nick has changed his perspective again? I thought that he was one with the zombie's after the experience with Carmella, or whoever that was. Now, he doesn't believe? I don't get it.
