Remember Jim, the mechanic type from the first season? He got a single bite (improbably placed in the middle of his chest) and died from the infection.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Damn, Carl - that was cold.

That's all I have to say for this episode.

Yea, I watch the show late on Amazon or wherever. :)

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

I'm at S4 ep3 and I've seen some crazy stuff... but nothing that was as impactful as this episode of TWD. But if you're saying BB is better than this, I'm fired up!

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Oh ok thanks. I didn't know they had venom glands. But I'm also reading that a Komodo's saliva can also kill via infection. So I guess it can kill both ways.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

I thought episodes 2 and 3 of the first season of BB were as powerful as this, but to each their own.

I just thought... I'm a little disappointed at not getting to see Zombie Lori. They could've really pushed it with that considering her c-section.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Great job, and by great I mean fucking abysmal, by troystiffler posting a comic spoiler in the same post he complains about a "spoiler" from an episode that's already aired.

And :lol: at Rick's "been through some stuff".

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

That's actually a fair question...

Motherfucker, I will Suss Mahna your ass!

A coworker and I, you mean :-p?
Sorry, my inner grammar Nazi got loose.

Actually, no :-p.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

my guess, the baby will be the zombie apocalypse version of the "star child" from V

I was thinking how awful it would be to have to watch your mother give birth, then BAM, shit got real. The last 10 minutes of this ep is the best TV I can recall seeing. And the first 50 were really good too. Are Glen and Maggie living in the guard tower or just up there fucking?

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Reminds me of this The Far Side cartoon, probably from the late '80s:

I understand the point ... it just seemed rather odd. Hell, Rick hacked off Herschel's leg to try to save him. Other characters who have been bitten have been comforted and had some level of care administered despite the hopeless odds. For Lori it was simply "Fuck you and fare thee well. We aren't even going to put the bullet in your head first, you get to lay there and bleed out while we ignore you and snatch your baby away." Did Lori even get to hold the baby before she died?

Pressure, some sort of wound dressing, Carl could have retrieved Herschel (I know they wouldn't have made it) ... I know all would be pretty much pointless, but they didn't make any effort at all. It was just weird ...

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Huh? I think it was established that things had gone South for Lori and there was no turning back. She was already bleeding internally, they showed Maggie's hand full of blood and that's when she figures out things are bad.

Plus Maggie did all she could to convince Lori they needed help but Lori decided her life was less important than the baby. What could they do?

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

My question is, why the hell didn't they shoot Lori in the head BEFORE they performed the battlefield c-section?

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

You can kill the baby too, that's why.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Again, why the hell didn't they shoot Lori in the head before they performed the c-section?!! ;)

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Maggie: "Carl, I'm sorry. I just shot your mother in the head."

Carl: "So she didn't suffer through the c-section?"

Maggie: "What c-section?"

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Really? Huh. Learn something new every day.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

What can I say, I used to ki... I've said too much.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Reminds me of an old Simpson's episode:

Grampa: [runs into the room with a hammer and a wooden stake] Quick! We have to kill the boy! (meaning Bart)
Marge: How did you know he was a vampire?
Grampa: He's a vampire? AHHH! [runs out of room]

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

The more relevant Simpsons entry is THOHIII

She should've taken the abortion pills.

ssshhh... don't tell the Hobby Lobby guy...

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

Okay i just finished watching this episode and wanted to post how powerful that ending was.

I haven't watched anything beyond this ep. but i assume the baby is gonna make too much noise at some point and they'll have to 'Take care' of it.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

:lol: I know cable is a lot more progressive than network tv but I still don't see that happening.

Re: The Walking Dead -- "Killer Within" -- 11/04/12
 

i think it is a given that the baby is going to be killed, or at least somehow dispatched of... it hinders the protagonists too much... i mean, the kid is ALWAYS gonna need to eat... and what happens if it lives to be old enough to be a toddler? are they going to subject a toddler to exposure to gruesome zombie effects? I think not.
