Predictions for next week. This was supposed to be a dry run, not the actual event. Everyone back at base is expecting this to be a dry run. Therefore I would say next week episode is going to involve what happened back at Alexandria during the dry run, with the wolves showing up. Shit goes down, and with all the fighters away there is little chance of them surviving a wolf attack. Someone gets loose, or gets the bright idea to hit the horn alerting Team Rick that something massively bad has gone down at base camp and to get back ASAP. The Ricalvary will arrive just in time to save the day, leaving them just with the bigger problem of the herd coming and no way out. View Quote Sounds plausible. Makes sense about the air horn usage |

I wonder if the Wolves are going to be a recurring thing or will they be eliminated altogether?

The backed up trucks on the edge would be a decent fortification except zombies walking off the edge would fall on you.

Yeah, you nailed that one. When we were talking about walker traps, I thought it was a good idea, you just have to have a quarry available. But trapping and containing them in pits, trenches, ....or quarries, is the best way to clear up the mess. Letting them loose isn't. If Rick was doing it to use as weapon against some enemy it's probably a smart weapon. If he's just releasing them to try to get them away, it's a dumb, risky idea. |

That shitty fence makes my eye twitch. View Quote I agree. The external buttresses are intentional. Either it makes good sense from an engineering standpoint. Or, the writers are going to use those external ramps in the future. It's not just to preserve the neighborhood, or for filming purposes. If either of those was a concern the production crew could have just not used the reinforcement and saved money. You don't need that kind of reinforcement for a prop wall. They could have just built an unreinforced wall. My guess is they're going to use that configuration for the story. Somebody is going to come over that wall using the reinforcement, or somebody is going to use the reinforcement to pull the wall down. |

They had at least 4 otr rigs and I'm sure a fair amount of equipment around that quarry. That's most likely somewhere between 800 and over 3000 gallons of diesel fuel and flare guns. They could have bbq'd all the walkers in place without leaving the site.

[thank god morgan is back and on the mental mend--rick is getting unstable again, which is frustrating. he behaves exactly like a man who knows he should be a leader, but doesn't know how to do it, so instead concentrates on trying to act like one. I dunno, I think I disagree with Rick becoming unstable. He's almost been eaten by cannibals, blown up by a tank, killed by cops in Atl, wife eaten, seen a good portion of his group killed and having to raise a baby. I think he's being pragmatic. Morgan gets this and cares for his friend. Morgan see's that there can be good in people but Rick is in 100% survival mode. Anything that threatens his safety is a threat. As others have mentioned, Morgan is the new Dale\Hershel character. I hope we get to hear more about his (Morgan) learning of this martial arts skills and who taught him. Not sure where Rick is headed but I don't think it's into madness. Not at the level of the Governor...yet. I think Rick is frustrated at the Alexandria people and genuinely wants to help and protect them and the town.

Letting the walkers out was DUMB. But, it's Rick... what do you expect... he's killed more people than walkers through his ineptness.
Here's a thought. Instead of guiding them with sheet metal miles down the road and loosing them into the wild, take a fraction of the sheet metal and vehicles (as reinforcements). Create the wall at the top of the ramp, running parallel to the cliff. Make the distance between the wall small, maybe 10 feet at the most. That way, they can't build up enough of a crowd to put any real strain on the wall. When you get to a particularly straight-down fall over jagged rocks, taper the wall all the way to the cliff edge. Walkers coming up the ramp will push walkers at the pinch point off the cliff, splattering their brains below. Wait, and you can keep the level of walkers in the pit sustainable. Do the same at any other "weak point" in the quarry. Guide them using the walls to a high point, taper it off so they end up falling. It would be like the walker hotel. They can check in, but they can't check out. A lot better than releasing thousands of walkers into the wild where they, or SOMEONE will have to deal with them. They already had a large herd out there... they just effectively created another one by letting them out. |

I still don't see why they didn't try to burn them when they were in the quarry. Greasy meat would burn. Get a hot enough fire going; strategically set, Dresden style, and it would work. They have all of those cars.
When the episode began, I assumed that the "plan" was to use the herd as a weapon. Otherwise, the plan makes no sense. |

Does anyone have an estimate of how many walkers they think are in the quarry? A couple thousand maybe?
When I first saw it, my thought was "10-22, a case or two of ammo, and the problem is solved, permanently." The contents of the TAPBunker would certainly have come in handy for that exact situation, without having to go through the high-risk/low-payoff plan they used. |
