mustbekarma March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 I think the reason why specific horror stories like Terminus, the rape gang, and the Governor haven't been told is because these people wouldn't believe it. They can barely handle the idea that the world's a nasty place with Walkers salivating at the gate. I could see the ASZhats automatically dismissing the stories because they are so outside the realm of decent human behavior. Carol did call them children. You censor what you say in front of children. Don't cross the street without looking because it isn't safe is a lot more appropriate for children than "don't cross the street without looking because you'll get hit by a car and die with all your body parts flying across the road. Oh look, is that your brains over there?" 23 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-980799
Ellaria March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 My longest-running problem with TWD has always been the dialogue. This is not how real people talk. The writers think they're being profound and capturing an older way of speaking that used to be more common in the south, but it just doesn't work. That meeting at the end was so damn frustrating because...no one talks like that. No one communicates in so many half sentences that are as vague as possible. "The things we've seen....terrible things....things you haven't seen..." Jesus. EXPLAIN. Tell them very specifically about the things, about Terminus and the Governor, tell them about how Grady operated, tell them about the biker gang that almost raped Carl. Tell them how Lori had to have her baby cut out of her and Carl had to put her down. Tell them about Noah's community and the Unfair Wolves. Tell them about how everyone is already infected. Use your words. Thank you for saying what I have been thinking for weeks. Enough of the "they don't know what we have seen." Of course, they don't. They have been living in a gated community. So please tell them what you have seen! The Alexandrites may be naive but they aren't mind readers. Instead, Abraham talks and uses the word shit twice in one sentence. 19 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-980800

TrininisaScorp March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 While that was seriously stressful tv for me, I was pleased to see none of our gang die. IMO, we've had enough death of our people and was happy it didn't go down that way. I didn't find it boring at all. I really enjoyed the idea that our folks had choices to make when it came to taking the lives of others. Compelling. Michonne (and obviously, DG) is my homegirl. I will follow her anywhere. Her conversations with Ric and her post credit wordless scene were all amazing. I was both happy to see her pick the katana up (kickass!) and sad because I know she wanted to leave it on the mantle. You can tell Ric puts a great deal of trust in her and the feeling is clearly mutual. Morgan is so cool. His Jedi-ness was badass.

Crazy Rick shows up, once again covered in blood carrying a Walker. My first thought is, if I was Deanna, I would have thought Rick deliberately did this to "prove" his worth. Loved the talk between Michonne and Rick. So Deanna is perfectly fine with wife-beating Pete, because he was "important" as a doctor, but the moment her hubby is killed, the doctor is no longer needed, apparently, all bets are off, and she immediately asks Rick to kill Pete. How convenient. And typical.

I took the red poncho guy as a red shirt. What confuses me about the wolves is.... why? Why set traps to kill random people? Do they ever recruit people into the pack or just kill everyone they come in contact with? Why the unfair wolves tagging? They leave a place a spray paint that they are not far? Makes little sense to me. Are they just trying to develop a reputation? Reminds me of the robbers in Home Alone that left the kitchen sinks on, to leave a calling card.

She knows what abusive men are like, she knows what it takes to send them over the edge into full mania.

Amelie06 March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 I'm so happy that Lennie James is back. I love Lennie James. I love that he just pops up in things in the UK and the US. You just turn on a show and all the sudden Lennie James shows up and he is fabulous. Morgan better stick around for more than one episode this time. If the black man exchange program is still in place, this must mean that Gabriel is going to die. That's how it works, right? I'm annoyed at Glen's niceness. It does show a level of decency and conscience, but this is the zombie apocalypse and ain't nobody got time for that! Did he learn nothing from the Terminus debacle? (Rick: We gotta go and kill all those bastards that just tried to eat us! Glen et al: NO! We've had enough. Let's run and hope for the best.) How the hell did that work out? They no longer live in a world where you can let a mortal enemy go. The Wolves are a bunch of dicks. How does any of this get fun? Don't they know that they'll eventually run out of people? Then what will they do? Are they personally trying to make sure the human race ends? I liked Rick and Michonne's heart to heart. It's good that he knows Michonne will always be in his corner. Even if he is wrong, she'll be there to back him up. Carol was a total jerk this episode. She was a terrible friend to Rick. He was very vulnerable and needed her to be legit and not keep pressing her own agenda. She failed.

They must have known if Rick was banished, their own cards were marked. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-981136
iRarelyWatchTV36 March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 I think a really big part of the "sticking up for Rick" thing by CDB is if he is given the boot, what's to stop them from kicking me or us out next?! Its solidarity, sure, but despite all the 'team talks', its still an "every human for themself" world. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-981138
MrPissyPuppy March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 Aaron lost the plate though, at least I thought he did I thought He dropped his bag during the attack. He killed a walker with it. I think he dropped it or it stayed stuck in the head after that. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-981145

frogzapper March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 Best Walking Dead season finale ever!! I was on edge so many times! - So worried for Morgan then so thrilled with how he dispatched those two Wolves - awesome stick skills! He should've killed them, though! - So worried for Glenn then so relieved to see him okay (I don't know how he got out of that situation!), whew! I knew he would spare that coward Nicholas; hopefully Nicholas got some sense knocked into him. Love Glenn and his undying humanity! - So worried for Daryl and Aaron - for a second I was really worried since Norman Reedus was going to be a guest on TD (but I didn't really think they'd get rid of Daryl, they just couldn't do that!)! But Morgan saves the day - awesome x 2! - So happy to see Morgan and Rick back together again! Wonder what was going through Morgan's mind in that last scene, heh! - So pissed off at that useless sack of sh*t, Father Gabriel, ugh! Did he intentionally let the gate slide back open or is he just that stupid? But on the other hand, it was sort of good, in a way, that those walkers came in and gave Rick the opportunity to show the Alexandrianites first hand the real threat out there. Now maybe they'll wake up and listen to Rick and his group. I really liked Rick's speech to the group at the end. I was worried he had gone too far after the last episode, but it feels like good Rick is back now and ready to be a leader again. I don't know what's in store with those Wolves next season, but I'm sure it'll be intense. (I don't read the comics so I'm not spoiled in any way). Argh, can't wait till next season! Ahhhhhhh! 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-981150
HalcyonDays March 30, 2015 Author Share March 30, 2015 Will somebody please eat one of Carol's casseroles? For crying out loud! The previous couple weeks and this episode, all I could think was "YOU'RE WASTING FOOD!!" There aren't any decently stocked grocery stores to go get supplies for another tuna casserole. Idiots. So pissed off at that useless sack of sh*t, Father Gabriel, ugh! Did he intentionally let the gate slide back open or is he just that stupid? He's that stupid. He's so selfish and self-absorbed and messed up that he really didn't pay attention to the gate, because it's all about him and his drama and feelings and Woe-Iz-Me bullshit, that he doesn't think. And now I can't remember the exact words, but when he had his righteous freakout with Sasha, and said something to her like "you guys will get us all killed." I'm yelling at the TV going, "WTF You're the one who is going to get everyone killed!" 19 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-981167
GaT March 30, 2015 Share March 30, 2015 That was it? What was the extra half hour for? Nothing happened tonight that couldn't have been done in the regular hour. There was nothing shocking about this episode at all, & now we know we're going to have to deal with crazies again next season since they've got the wolves all lined up & ready to go. Been there, done that. 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/24309-s05e16-conquer/page/3/#findComment-981171
