They're going to end this season next week and I'm going to be really upset about it e: This post would be clever if it wasn't the start of a new page.

God drat, this last episode was great. I'm hoping Peyton shows up at Rav's next week, but she probably won't.  So, who the hell was taking out the band if it wasn't the Max Rager enforcer? Someone else at Max Rager, getting in touch with them like they did with Lowell? I know we'll find out next week, but I can't help but (probably incorrectly) feel like they're setting up a 3rd party of zombies for next season.

I'm assuming they're going to pick that story back up next week seeing as we didn't really get any resolution with it.

This show has a lot of great puns and pop culture references. I love that Sebastian is apparently a Game of Thrones fan.

The fact that Liv's brother just happened to pop into that butcher shop, while they had Major locked in there is quite convenient. I guess now Major is aware, that Blaine knows Liv. This could be interesting. Maybe she manages to free him but he will act shocked since he found out that she is one of them and she deceived him all along. She really should have told him when she had a chance.

It also just doesn't make any sense at all. Major seems like an incredibly devoted and motivated guy who would do pretty much anything for someone that matters to him. If there's one person I could see Liv being able to trust with this, it's him (not just because they were together for what, six years?). Maybe my reading of him is all wrong but my guess is that if she'd been upfront with him about what happened the whole time, she could have trusted him to keep it a secret. He's clearly willing to do a lot more than that for people he cares about.

Admitting the truth, even if she expected Major would believe her, would also permanently shift his perception of her. He might "accept" it and might not mistreat or reject her over it, but he'd potentially also view her as something other than what she was: a driven, composed, sexy girl who was his equal. Seeing zombie-ism as an AIDS metaphor, Liv doesn't want Major to know because she doesn't want to elicit pity, or disgust, from a man she loved and wanted to marry.

Okay, yeah that actually makes a lot of sense. She definitely isn't the type of person who would handle being pitied very well.

I like how the four teens in the car were tv high schoolers and thus looked to be in their mid-twenties, but the girl's friend they interviewed looked like an actual high schooler, which made it seem like she was in Jr high.

The one girl with black hair was on Arrow, also as a troubled teenager. If she survives I guess this could be a prequel to her part on that.

Hell, she basically made the third season of the Killing not completely terrible. also "I don't care if she's the bang of the century this chick has to go." is a great line.

Either on purpose because you can torture a zombie a lot longer than a regular person, or by hilarious accident because they don't realize how contagious it is. Punch a guy until your knuckles are bloody and you might just transfer enough blood for conversion.

I really enjoyed the fact they couldn't even be bothered to show Lilywhite loving up this episode. Just some high beams are flashed from behind him and two scenes later he's stripped of his weapons and tied up. Meanwhile Liv is easily taking down a trained assassin with her endless supply of kitchen knives and solving crimes. They strike a good balance in the end.

Maybe she's collectively retaining stuff from previous victims and just getting stronger and stronger? Also gently caress, I'm super curious who killed the band members now since it wasn't the Max Rager assassin.

El policia capitan, senor. As soon as he was revealed, I started getting the Sci-Fi Escalation Shakes, which is where you shiver in advance of the increasingly large conspiracy that is about to ruin your (Orphan Black) favorite (Sleepy Hollow) show (The Killing) but so far this show is still amazing.

Another episode of Major completely getting boned by life. Seriously, episode 13 is either going to have him guns blazing FINALLY saving the loving day and taking Liv by the arms in a glorious moment of devil-may-care, "I still love you," nonsense, or he's going to die and get turned into a zombie. It would follow what the CW tends to do. You think he's dead, like practically every character on Vampire Diaries, until nope, magical tomfoolery, some ring poo poo, vampire blood, what have you, and poof, you're alive or undead! Same with the Lazarus Pit and Mirakuru bringing back loving everyone in Arrow.

Was the remaining band member killing Arrow-girl because he is a zombie now? I'd like a zombie outbreak being an indirect consequence of Liv turning that hitman.

Yeah, that's my best guess, too, but unless something happened and he's just always in full-on zombie mode I don't understand why he would be attacking her. So far everyone who we've seen get zombied has more or less been the same person that they were before.

If he was full on zombie he wouldn't have left the brains in the two people killed. Sebastion still had the flash drive with the memo when he went over the side of the boat so the band members probably rifled his pockets, found it and took off. A little later they check it out, find the memo and try to blackmail Max Rager. The room was tossed and there was blood on the bed before Cyn got there so it's probably the CEO pretending to be the third member to get her to bring the drive to him.

Yeah, that part was weird to me. She's just had a couple friends murdered. Then she sees blood on the bed of sketchy hotel room and doesn't turn around and nope the hell out...opting to just waltz in instead? I know teenagers are dumb, but, c'mon. Whoever killed her wasn't terribly professional either, since they didn't manage to make sure she wasn't dead enough to try and dial 911. Anyways....season finale art! This one actually might contain minor spoilers, so, fair warning.  Looks like Liv is holding the cure? Can't tell if that's Major on the cell phone or Blaine. Possibly her brother? Hmmm...

I'd love it if the end-game for this show is that most of the 7-8 billion people in the world end up as zombies, but they just keep going about their daily lives as normal and they now have a thriving human battery farm industry, and supermarkets that stock nothing but brains in their food departments.

A happy side-effect of this is that the That would never work. A zombie seems to need about a brain a week. Call it 50 brains a year. That means the farms will need at least 50 women of childbearing age to make up for the consumption of a single zombie, but probably closer to 100 because very young and very old breeders are irregular. You can't really use in vitro to speed that up much, because while you can get more babies per birth the babies are smaller with smaller brains, and it takes the mother longer to recover between pregnancies. You also have to be raising the next generation of breeders. 100 humans per zombie is probably not enough, but whatever. For 6 billion zombies you would need at least 600 billion living humans on farms, mostly women under 50 years of age. We can't possibly feed that many humans with current technology. Realistically we probably can't have more than 50 million zombies worldwide before population collapse is certain. 50 million zombies wouldn't be enough to safely contain the 5 billion+ on farms and still have any sort of normal life themselves.
