Oh! wasn’t that a classic 🙄 I have to admit that this episode at least sounds more interesting than the previous offering. Regarding the possible Russian roulette scene, if you can’t better The Deer Hunter, and frankly what ever could, then it’s best left well alone, stick to two guys stuck in a hole , most excellent and totally bodacious 😋 Edited March 10, 2021 by OoohMaggie 1 Link to comment

The interrogator looks like someone dug up a costume from the Star Trek: TOS archives and told him, "Wear this. It was cheap". Maybe they ARE going to turn this show into a parody. 1 Link to comment
Mr. Sparkle March 12, 2021 Share March 12, 2021 I ended up watching episode 19 today. Not as bad as some, too much talking. Gabriel and Aaron are among the best actors left on the show, IMO, and their work with Robert Patrick saved what could have been a really terrible episode. 2 Link to comment

Yet as we all know, acting ability or character popularity cannot make up for bullshit scripts, as IMO we’ve just witnessed. I think the whole ‘I’ve finally seen the light in five minutes’, roulette / redemption scene with Mays was utterly ridiculous, however well acted. If only the other villains could have been converted so easily, we wouldn’t have had to endure Negan for the last seventeen and a half years. I long to see the end of these filler episodes, yet I wish we could talk about them on the proper episode thread, still another 48 hours to go though 🤔 1 Link to comment

I think JDM is a decent actor, and we know how that went. This was a total filler episode, but I don't think any of these 6 episodes are meant to move the story forward. 2 Link to comment

Seeing Robert Patrick in the trailers in this thread was pretty much the only glimmer of hope I had for something resembling enjoyment of this season. (The season that I foolishly thought was the finale, and I was gleefully counting the moments for this death spiral into boredom, monotony, character assassination and just plain bad writing to finally be over). I am glad his scenes are with Seth Gilliam. I know I have gleefully mocked FPP, but I think he is one of the better actors on the show, and it will be nice to see him working opposite Robert Patrick (who I think is a much better actor than some of his roles have indicated). I'm sorry I won't be able to join the live chat. I won't be watching this until Monday or Tuesday. But I will hang on to the anticipation of watching Robert Patrick. 1 Link to comment

So Daryl's search for Beatrice was obviously fruitless. I must have been getting a snack when this traumatic incident occured. Maybe now TPTB can stop giving characters names that were surely all the rage in the early 20th century, or maybe even the 19th century? I"m just funnin' you about Maggie. I think she's very cute, mainly because she has not (yet) had massive bolt-ons installed, bleached her hair within an inch of its life, or even got microbladed brows or fake eyelashes that resemble two smashed tarantulas.

nodorothyparker March 19, 2021 Share March 19, 2021 Courtesy of We Are the Walking Dead Fans. Q&A Episode 10.20 “Splinter” Quote 1. What can you tell us about the Commonwealth soldiers? Nothing much about the soldiers themselves... They are just seen talking among each other over the radio and patrolling the area. The one soldier that Princess speaks to, however, states that they live in a good place, they have to protect the many many good people who live there, and they have precious resources. He tells her that he knows what's happening is intense, but it's just routine. He says he has paperwork to fill, that he's on probation already, and that he's going to get in trouble for being snatched up by a chick. 2. Is the Commonwealth mentioned by name? No. 3. Is Lance in this episode? There are only two soldiers who have speaking parts: an apparent commander who does the interrogations, and the soldier Princess comes into contact with, and neither is mentioned by name. 4. Do we learn anything about Princess’s backstory? Yes. She had a stepfather who punched her in the jaw once, and her mother didn't defend her. Some nice people she's met in the past are referred to by name. She mentions having ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and an active imagination (!). 5. How does Princess escape the train car? She really doesn't. It turns out she was imagining all of the interactions she has with Ezekiel and Eugene. Yumiko is supposedly in the next train car over, with an injury to the head that she's contained while fighting the soldiers off of Princess as they were being captured. Then Princess hears them coming and taking Yumiko away. 6. How does Ezekiel get out of where he is being held? He really doesn't. While we are made to think that that's what's happening, a soldier comes inside Princess's train car to bring her food, and we see Ezekiel overpowering him. They have a hard time believing him when he says they just want to help, and after all the talking, Ezekiel throws a tantrum and starts beating the crap out of the guy. We see Princess yelling at him to stop, and all of a sudden, the roles switch: it's now Princess beating up the soldier and Ezekiel yelling at her to stop, then Ezekiel is gone altogether. Princess realizes that she had been alone the whole time. 7. Is Stephanie mentioned? Yes, by Princess's imaginary Eugene. He says that her kindness cannot be an anomaly among her people, so they just have to get through whatever this is to be properly accepted into their community. 8. Is Yumiko okay? Do we see her get reunited with the group? We don't exactly know, actually. We see Eugene, Ezekiel and her with black sacks over their heads, and Princess gets one put over her head as well. 9. How does the episode end? With Princess believing in the soldier's good intentions and telling him about herself and the others, even returning his rifle to him, only to have him open the train car door to see the others all tied up with the black sacks over their heads. 10. Anything else interesting? Princess actually has the chance to escape. She has a conversation with imaginary Ezekiel, he tries to convince her to leave because she has to trust her instincts and she's always been better on her own. But she refuses, saying that they came back for her. Oh good. An entire episode inside the head of a character we just met showtime. Ghost Lori roaming around a field in a wedding dress had better grounding. Link to comment
