Well, the damn Governor was true to his word and came to claim the prison. Readers of Robert Kirkman's comic book will have figured certain things were bound to happen, although this show has never worried about being too reverent to its source material so there was always a chance they'd throw a curveball. In this instance though, things did play out pretty much the same - we had a major character (though a different one) lose his head at the hands of "one eye Bri", the prison was destroyed and our heroes were scattered, The Governor was ultimately taken out by a woman named Lilly (granted with a little help from Michonne) and it appeared, at least, that baby Judith was also killed..though that remains to be seen on January. I had very few complaints about this ep; but what did you guys think?

I said it in a comment not to long ago that Hersheal was gonna get his head chopped off, just like Tyreese in the comicbook.

Good episode, huh I wonder if the walkers got to the baby?

You know what I hate, stuff they dont go back to, like the voice on the radio, Michonne crying when she was holding Judith, or the person feeding rats to the walkers.

Reminds me of a scene in season 2 where a helicopter flys by, then you dont see it again intil season 3.

That was such a good episode! So much more satisfying than last seasons finale! This is what all the fans wanted. When the Governor said "Kill them all" I got too excited. Not because there would be death but because of the homage to the source material!
What does everyone think about Judith? Do you think she was actually mauled and died some what like the books or do you think they got her hidden or on the bus?
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 12/1/2013, 7:38 PM
If they follow the comics, yeah she's a goner. But I think it'll turn out that one of those trigger happy kids has her.

During Rick and The Governors fight, I actually thought the show was going to take a huge leap and have "one eye Bri" kill Rick.

What a great episode! Hershel's death although not surprising, was sad to see! As far as Judith, i gotta agree with Ror, i think the kids have her! Although i she were dead, that would be shocking!

That was an amazing episode nonstop with the character beats glad to see some of the plot threads come full circle great great job for not only a midseason finale but setting up the rest of the season!!!

Kinda surprised that the Governor won a fist fight with Rick. I mean he was shown top be pretty formidable and I guess we don't know what he did before the walkers, but Rick was a trained police officer..just thought they maybe shoulda had Governor use a dirty trick to gain the upper hand..although that might just be the WWE fan in me taking!

Ror those kids weren't trigger happy they just have the survival mentallity implanted in their skulls by Carol.

Yea Rick got his ass kicked.

Rick lost his edge a long time ago.

Well in all fairness Rick was shot in the leg!

@ror the guv was a modern day super soldier experiment remember how he took down Merle?? The fuggahh is ruthless!! Lol
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 12/1/2013, 7:50 PM
Governor was shot too! But yeah I guess it'snot always realistic that the "good guy" is the better fighter..I was just surprised.

chris73 - 12/1/2013, 7:52 PM
Awesome episode! Scene at the end with Rick and Carl leaving the prison with Rick sayin "Dont look back Carl" was straight outta the comic. I think Judith is on the bus. Nice to see the Governor go out in pretty much the same way as the comic too, bring on Abraham!!!
jlabatman
jlabatman - 12/1/2013, 7:52 PM
Definitely going to have to watch this episode again!

I just wanna know what happened with Judith, damn gotta wait till Feb to find out, hope someone like Tyreese and the lil girls got a hold of heror she was on the bus when it took off.

I cheered when:

The lil girls shot those two people and saved Tyreese
Michonne stabbed The Governor
LiLy shot the Governor

Things I hope will be answered in Feb:

What happened with Judith
What happened with Tara
Where did everyone run off too
and Daryl lived and killed Mitch the bitch lo

What about the Governor's girlfriend? Will she be in Rick's crew now?
Bodwulf
Bodwulf - 12/1/2013, 7:55 PM
@Ror Rick was shot in the thigh just before the fight. Still a surprise though.
MarkCassidy

Yes, Daryl fought a tank and won ladies and gents.

MrReese - 12/1/2013, 8:00 PM
Didn't the Governor get shot in the arm also?
SAZMD
SAZMD - 12/1/2013, 8:04 PM
Interesting reaction by the Gov to the dying girl. I guess he was too far gone to care. Just shoot her in the head and move on. I suppose it was to say that he hadn't really changed.
Bodwulf
Bodwulf - 12/1/2013, 8:05 PM
True MrReese! Fair fight then.

I am so thrilled that this show showed us it still has balls. The season up to this point was really irritating me as my roommates argued with me that main characters SHOULDN'T die in the show.

The show had made people way to comfortable and safe in this world.

Tonight, The Walking Dead got back on track in a big way.

I haven't been so distraught since the "Ozymandias" episode of Breaking Bad.

What a gruesome, but fantastic end to this story arc.

The Governor checked out easy, all things considered. Would be much worse to die while watching walkers tear out your guts. But it is also pretty sucky to die at the hands of the one you were trying to protect.
