Ohmygod just die already Carol!! When did this start becoming the Carol show?! Is she the second lead, I guess?!

King Ezekiel, lolol... this show has jumped the shark with this guy and his tiger, omg. DON'T TELL ME IT'S IN THE COMICS. YES YES I KNOW, IT IS, MOST LIKELY. IT DOESN'T MAKE IT RIGHT. SERIOUSLY LET'S TALK ABOUT THE LOGISTICS HERE. HOW IS IT THAT THERE'S YET ANOTHER IDYLLIC VILLAGE OF PEOPLE? HOW DID ALL THESE SPRING UP OUT OF NOWHERE WHILE RICK AND HIS CREW ARE LIKE, SCROUNGING IN PRISONS AND RUNNING INTO THE WORST OF HUMANITY EVERY. SINGLE. SEASON?! AND ALSO, HOW THE HELL DO YOU KEEP A TIGER FED AND HEALTHY IN A WORLD LIKE THIS? PUH-LEASE! IT MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE.

OK, Carol's making me laugh. She is responding exactly as I would. "Does this guy have a name?!" Really, Morgan, stop beating about the bush here, we're not in some painfully drawn-out narrative.

LOLOL *forced smile* "I don't know what the hell's going on in the most wonderful way!" :)))) There's really no other way to respond to this ridiculousness.

This guy like, cosplaying in the middle of the zombie apocalypse.

OK Carol, there's no reason to turn down perfectly good food in a world like this. Well, if it's fruit. Feel free to turn down meat of any kind.

If I were Carol I would have immediately turned to Morgan and been like, "YOU COULDN'T HAVE WARNED ME ABOUT THAT????"

I miss the days when you could follow the storylines of multiple or even ALL the characters, in one episode. Now it's constantly split off into single storylines, or at most, two.

As IF there are pigs running around this city that haven't already been eaten by walkers or other humans!!!

I did not understand that guy's answer to Morgan's question of why they locked those pigs up with the zombie. What is the purpose of that? They DO or DON'T want their bellies full of rot? DON'T makes more sense logically, but DO makes more sense in light of locking them in with the walker after we saw them eating the other one on the ground. So why would they want that?

LOLOL omg this guy with the machete sucks. EVEN IF YOU HADN'T PRACTICED you should be able to stab it through the zombie's head omg. That was so fucking stupid it was laughable.

Oh, I see, they don't want to waste good food on the pigs so they feed the pigs walkers, which of course, the people then eat. Ewwww. So what the fuck does that tiger eat?! If it eats zombies/ex-humans, how the hell is it so tame that Ezekiel can pet it?!

I like how every Rick crew member always gets taken in immediately by the leader of whatever new gang they encounter. How many people in that community are like, "I've wished for months for a private audience with King Ezekiel, only to be kept at a distance! Now this newcomer arrives and usurps my opportunity! That knave!"

Young Benjamin couldn't stick a fucking huge machete into the face of a fucking slow-moving walker. HE IS NOT GOING TO LEARN HOW TO USE A STAVE LIKE MORGAN.

Oooh I do love a good acapella, though. Oh show, how you're able to play me like a violin!

Oh the choir conductor is a pregnant lady. Welp, she's going to die horribly, soon.

I don't even remember what happened to Carol to know why she's in a wheelchair. I mean, she was wandering around just fine on her own when the "knights" and Morgan found her, before she collapsed.

Cobbler at every meal?! THIS IS THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.

Carol, your acting is terrible. You've definitely regressed since last season's excellent acting job in Alexandria.

Seriously, Morgan, lend the kid a book. He's not asking for a fucking gun.

"This is a secret I keep from my people. But I've known you three days, so you may know the secret. I trust you wholly and inexplicably."

Who is this they're meeting up with? Negan's guys?

Oh they're giving the pigs to the other dudes... well I guess it's all right that they were eating dead people, then.

I don't know enough about guns to know what's given Morgan that look of disquiet. Or is it just the fact that he's holding a gun at all? And LOL by the way that they've brought this new guy to what is apparently a huge secret, and given him a gun to boot.

I now have zero respect for Ezekiel for letting his guy get hit "for free." Especially to that punkass bitch.

WTF I did not understand that exchange between Ezekiel and Morgan at all. So now we know that Morgan's moment of disquiet over the gun was because he thought Ezekiel felt he could do it again if needed, and that that's why he was there... but Ezekiel says no, it's "the opposite." WTF? So you brought Morgan there and put a gun in his hand because you felt he WOULDN'T protect you? Gahd this dude bugs the shit out of me.

Um, that broccoli did not look like a cobbler. THAT GUY STRAIGHT-UP LIED TO CAROL ABOUT HAVING COBBLER ALL DAY, EVERY DAY.

Uh, YEAH you guys wouldn't win a fight against Negan. Did you SEE yourself with that machete? Also, you're all bunch of pussies. And not a cool one like that tiger. Oh god, that tiger is going to die, isn't it. I mean, there's almost no other ending it can have. Now I'm super sad.

Oh good, what I wanted more than Ezekiel's preaching was more of Morgan's preaching.

Carol's like, I'm outta this clusterfuck.

Oh sure, Carol, NOW you want fruit, when you're trying to be stealthy and escape. Maybe you should have taken some of the fruit that was openly offered to you FOR FREE. AND THEN YOU WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN CAUGHT.

OMG I love Jerry. Of course this means he, too, will die a horrible death.

I wonder if they feel that by keeping Daryl off screen, and lessening his role on the show, he'll lose fan favorite status, and then they can kill him.

The Saviors? Is that Negan's crew or another asshole crew? Though it seems like basically everyone is Negan's crew.

"I'm going to open up to you, Carol, even though I've known you 24 hours and you've been belligerent toward me for most of that time."

Um, yeah, this tiger story is ridiculous. As much as I'd like to believe it, I seriously doubt the tiger has the wherewithal to "know" he saved her life, to the point where she just trusts him and wouldn't think of attacking him.

Carol's response to that story is my response, too. "I don't care."

But I also don't care what Carol's fucking damage is, that she would rather go it alone and risk certain death, than just fake it in a safe place for awhile. Why not just stay until it all goes to hell, THEN bail? Is she just super scared of getting close to people now or what? But you know, even as I typed that, I realized... I don't care.

Oh good lord, this Ezekiel/Carol heart-to-heart is sooooooooo booooorrrrrriiiiiiinnnnnng.

So she's... going? Not going? I have no idea what any of that meant.

What is the symbolism with the stupid mailbox?!?! There was mail in it, and now there's not, because Carol's... what... moving into that house?? Is that what they meant by going but not going? As if Negan and his crew are going to stand for this. Honestly, this is so ridiculous, she's acting like a rebellious teenager.

Ohmygod and of course it's Ezekiel and his tiger at the door, offering her a pomegranate. The symbolism rife throughout this episode is so fucking heavy handed, it's awful. There's too much of it, first of all, and they're trying to cheat and get away with a stupid episode by making it seem like it's so deep. Ugh, what a terrible episode.

Subject line: Carol's response to meeting King Ezekiel for the first time.
