halgia November 23, 2014 Share November 23, 2014 If you've read the comics, be very careful to avoid spoiling those who don't, and keep in mind that some people may have much stricter notions of what a spoiler is. Any substantial comic talk should go in the comics thread; minor discussion is okay here, but be very liberal with the spoiler tags, and don't give away too much outside the tags either. We're still figuring out what the right solution for this is; we'd love your thoughts on it here. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18544-s05e07-crossed/#findComment-594427

Rosiejuliemom November 24, 2014 Share November 24, 2014 (edited) I loved the Morganizing of the church. Orange Backpack gets to go on a mission! Father Gabriel, check the church supplies for some scouring powder and maybe some dish soap if the floor blood bothers you so much. Make a paste, let it sit for a while, that shit'll scrub right out. Abraham, I do believe neither Rosita nor Maggie are going to put up with your shit. Is it weird that I hope Eugene pulls through? That planning session was giving me wicked Vatos flashbacks. Oh, I hope Carol fucks somebody in that hospital up! See, Eugene does have a purpose. Water filtration. Nice tire shot by Sasha. I'm so glad I finished eating right before Daryl used a walker head as a weapon. Why do I hope that the two cops survive and don't turn out to be jackasses? Apparently, even in the ZA, one can find time to fish. Beth is kinda impressing me right now. Was Sasha wearing Bob's shirt? That is some damn good advice, Tyreese. At least Sasha got to say goodbye. So, Gabriel is willing to body-slam walkers but not kill them. Tara found a yo-yo in the bag. That is pretty sweet. Son of a bitch asshole cop! I wanted you to be different!

On a different note, can we get rid of Tara? She's taking a lot of the lines that could be given to Rosita. I could give a crap if she found a yo-yo. And Eugene's awake.

She has not shown to be that trusting, is she still supposed to be shell shocked from Bob? She's been more practical than that, so that scene didn't work for me.

Irishmaple November 24, 2014 Share November 24, 2014 Rick's back to his kinda-crazy badass self and I could not be happier. Maggie's back to being her hardened self. The show scraped the comic book off Rosita and I really like her now. Tara continues to be adorable. Beth stepped it up. I'm just disappointed that there were actual fish in the water. I was hoping for an underwater zombie. The episode was thisclose to perfect, and they found fish instead of a zombie. I have no idea what Father Gabriel thinks he's doing. I'd be sitting at Michonne and Carl's feet, taking notes. A woman who lived a life of privilege prior to the ZA and a teenage boy turned into hardened warriors, and they're willing to teach you. And he bails? He's delusional. The melted zombies were a new touch and gave me a whole new respect for the designers. You guys are creepy! Well done.

Lila82 November 24, 2014 Share November 24, 2014 The music during the final scene was reminiscent of "The Cylon Prisoner," my favorite track from BSG. I don't always notice Bear McCreary's work on this show, but it was really lovely and a perfect compliment to the closing scenes. Tara can see unnecessary at times, but her sense of wonder is greatly appreciated. She's like a goofy kid sometimes and that kind of energy is needed, and a good contrast to Beth's doe-eyed naivety and Bob's sudden state of zen. I enjoyed the Tara-Rosita-Glenn bonding. I did too! The small, human moments have always been my favorite scenes, so I adore when the characters take time away from being slaughtered by other humans and just do normal, everyday things. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18544-s05e07-crossed/#findComment-595447
leto November 24, 2014 Share November 24, 2014 (edited) Did not enjoy this episode at all. It was filler. I had PTSD-like flashbacks of that episode in Season 3 where Rick and the Governor did nothing but glare at each other for an hour, while Andrea tried to play peacemaker. At least with that episode, the characters were consistently written. The writing was just bad here. Why would you ever take a conscientious objector-type like Tyreese on a mission where you are planning to kill people. Did the whole Martin incident teach them nothing? Meanwhile, you leave Michonne (aka "the weapon with a weapon") back at the church to watch the kids? Okay. Something about Sasha rubs me the wrong way. I just don't care about her grief over losing the her boyfriend of ten minutes. It's like Karen and Tyreese all over again. Did we really need to devote that much time to her issues during this episode? Maggie was tough this episode, but she's still boring and still having a successful memory-bypass about her sister. Where the hell were Rick and Daryl during the second half of the episode? They seemed to have disappeared. Finally, you know its bad when you think that the Beth parts of the episode were the strongest. She, at least, had a mission and managed to accomplish it this episode.

Okay. It's a drag to see her sidelined but in the context of the mission, Rick had a definite, stealth "get in, get out" plan and I got the impression she was really doing him a favor by making sure the kids were safe.

Glaze Crazy November 24, 2014 Share November 24, 2014 After all they've been through, I can't buy that Rick & Co automatically trusted the words from those two cops. Nor can I believe the two cops who just encountered and fought with a group of strangers, even with Noah apparently with the group, right away gave up info about the hospital and Dawn. Each side knows next to nothing about the other and since they've both been surviving so far, I doubt they would immediately trust an unknown entity. So I will hope that the ones who headed into the hospital have a better plan and are prepared for a full on fight inside. Hope that priest gets eaten soon. I suspect there's some place he's headed though, so I guess we'll find out what his real story is soon enough. Beth has picked up some great nursing skills while at the hospital/asylum. Now she's hooking up IV's and administering drugs into said IVs. I hope Carol regains consciousness soon so she can defend herself in the upcoming shootout. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/18544-s05e07-crossed/#findComment-595540
