The Walking dead Season 3 Episode 9: The Suicide Kings


Following the events of the last episode of the Walking Dead titled “Made to Suffer”, Rick and his group were able to save Glenn and Maggie. But in the process, Oscar got killed while Daryl was captured by the people of Woodbury. To make things worst, Michonne took it upon herself to kill the Governor but was surprised to find his undead daughter locked inside a closet. It did not end well when the Governor caught Michonne in his house next to Penny. Michonne stabbed Penny which made the Governor furious and started to attack her. Glass were shattered from broken Aquarium filled him severed zombie head and there was a lot of punching, kicking and chocking during their brawl. In the end Michonne was able to pick up a piece of glass and stab the Governor taking out his right eye.
 

This episode started with the Governor pitting the Dixon brothers against each on other in a death match which would reward the winner freedom. Although I am not sure he would set Daryl free if he is the winner. Actually I don’t think he would allow Merle to leave either if he won. The match was interrupted by Rick and the Gang deploying smoke grenades and shooting at the crowd to distract the people of Woodbury which allowed the Dixon brothers free. As soon as they escaped they met with Glenn and Michonne waiting by the road. They were not happy to see Merle tagged along. Merle was not making his situation better throwing insults at the group. In the end Daryl decided to stick with Merle and left Rick’s group.
Back in the Prison, something is brewing as well. Allen and Ben are in agreement that it would be easy to take over the prison. Good thing Tyreese and Sasha would not allow it. Rick and the others were able to reach the prison before anything happens. As Tyreese and his group were pleading to Rick about staying in the prison, Rick saw his wife, Lori and had a mental breakdown which seems like he was refusing Tyreese’s group to stay.


 
Back in Woodbury, the Governor is also deal with some issues as well. The people were panicking and are ready to leave the community. Andrea was there to diffuse the situation and was able to convince the people to stay. However it is clear that the Governor is affected with Penny’s demise.
 


 
The episode was a bit slow paced in my opinion. Aside from the Dixon brothers’ rescue, there wasn’t much action and too much talking. This episode shows us that people are cracking up. From Rick to the governor, even Glenn is going through some of his issues as well. We still have to see what will happen to Carol as well. Based on the comics, Carol will let herself get bitten since he was depressed due to Tyreese and Michoone’s infidelity. By the way in the Comics, Tyreese and Carol would have a relationship and Michoone would be the third wheel. Whether or not this will happen in the show I guess we will have to see. Maybe instead of Tyreese, Carol would be depressed because of Daryl. In the comics as well, Tyreese would be killed by the Governor. I am not sure if this would happen not unless the Prison Arc would extend until the next season. I think they would have to establish that Tyreese would be part of the chain of command of Rick’s group.  There are lots of events that happened in the comics that has not come to past in the show. Like Rick’s hand getting cut-off. Although we had that we Merle I am not sure if that would still happen. Or maybe Merle would cut-off Rick’s arm as an eye for eye kind of thing. Who knows? Guess we would have to wait longer.

The Walking dead Season 3 Episode 6: Hounded


Don’t read if you haven’t watch the episode
 
Last episode Michonne was allowed to leave Woodbury. But apparently the Governor did not want her to stay alive. Merle and his men begun hunting Michonne and saw her work of art as Merle has called it a “biter gram”.  The meaning of the cryptic message sent “Go Back” with a zombie’s arm shape like a “G”, legs shape as a an “O”, and the back of a zombie which says “back”.
 

Merle was not intimidated and decided to continue the hunt. Out of nowhere Michonne dropped from a tree and started slashing and stabbing of Merle’s men leaving the third, Garguilo, scared out of his wits. Crowley was sliced in half while Tim was stab by Michonne and was used as a body shield. Merle was able to shot Michonne’s leg leaving her limping.
 
Back in the prison, Rick is still suffering from insanity although before the end of the episode he seems to break away from it. But before doing so, he was hallucinating and was able to have a conversation with the people who died along the way. Finally speaking to Lori, or the version of Lori in his mind, he was able to get his act together and hold his baby for the first time.
 
Back with Michonne, Merle continues the hunt and was able to injure Garguilo. Refusing to return back to Woodbury and lie about Michonne’s death. Merle put a bullet in Garguilo to avoid from hunting Michonne further. Michonne was able to escape and reached a part of town where she saw Glenn Maggie. Unfortunately Merle also found the two. Merle saw a window of opportunity and took Maggie hostage. He eventually persuaded the two to drive back to Woodbury.
 



Michonne was smart enough to find the prison and bring along the Milk that Glenn and Maggie found. To Michonne’s surprise, she was not attacked by a group of walkers since she is covered with zombie’s blood and guts.
 
Back in the prison, Daryl found Carol’s knife stuck in a walker’s neck. He found a room where he assumed that Carol’s is in. Before opening the door, he was psyching himself up with the possibility that Carol has turned and preparing himself to what he has to do. Fortunately Carol was just in a bad shape and pretty exhausted but still human.
 


The episode ended when Rick was in the courtyard with the baby and the others. He found Michonne standing on the other side of fence with unharmed by the walkers.
 
In the preview, Michonne would go on with her merry ways of killing the walkers. Glenn and Maggie would be interrogated by the folks in Woodbury and Michonne while provide Intel to Rick about their comrades whereabouts.
 
Good thing Rick seems to have put his act together and ready to take leadership of the group again. Carl is pretty in a messed up place as well still dealing with what he had to do with his mother. Glenn and Maggie are also in some serious trouble. Knowing what the Governor has done to outsiders, we could only guess that they will be dead if they give out information of their friends. Through all of this Andrea is still unaware and seems to have developed some sort of relationship with the Governor. The real question is hat will Rick and the others do to retrieve their comrade? What will Daryl’s reaction when he meets up with Merle? Guess we will have to see. A great episode compared to the last one. But we are still waiting for the episode that will top the
