Ahahaha, the trash people were literally Apocalype Cosplayers.

Jadis was literally Mad Max Ezikiel. :laugh:

Simon had a point though--what was with the helipad and solar panels? We know there is a chopper; Rick saw it. For a minute I was thinking maybe Trashtown was a camoflauged military base and Jadis and her gang were soldiers playing dumb, but I beliece her reveal that she was a random artist lady.

I like how Rick had to say his last name, like Negan would not know who it was otherwise.

Yeah a character like Simon can't say something like that and not have it lead to Jadis yelling "CODE PURPLE" and a bunch of snipers in trash gillie suits show up out of nowhere and kill everyone. It's basic storytelling.

Good thing Talking Dead brought on two characters from the most boring C-Plot this week instead of, say Jadis.

These are all pretty lovely episodes, but we are in the back half of the season and this didn't advance the plot at ALL tonight unless you count Rick and Negan for two minutes at the end.

And even that is being generous.

Skimmed through the episode in like 20 minutes and it was pretty good when you can just outright ignore the 30 minutes of slow sullen looks and silence.

For the briefest, briefest moment I thought they were going to throw a crazy plot twist and they were all going to be bullshitting their odd behavior and actually be sitting on top of like a technological goldmine they hid under garbage.

That'd been so much loving cooler.

I don't know. I can't hate this episode like the rest of you.

Why? I'll tell you: Lots of Simon going full Trevor, the death of the trash people, the "I just want her gone" gently caress off from Rick (very meta, probably not on purpose) and then seeing the trash people turned into literal hamburger one by one. It was like "Yeah gently caress these assholes" the whole time. Made me completely forgive the rest of it.

Do you have any idea how much it would suck to be working for Negan and named Rick?

"Who's on the radio." "It's Rick." "Put that rear end in a top hat on the phone!" "No, Rick from pluming services, he's here to fix your.. throne, Negan."

I'm sad they're totally putting Simon on the death list only because him going into full Trevor rage-out and murder the gently caress out of them was the best thing about the episode.

Seriously maybe I just really hate the trash people but watching them get hosed and told they did it to themselves so to suck a proverbial dick from all parties gave me the most entertainment all season.

even seeing trashkru get meat grinder'd was not enough to save that ep

like, why did idiot trash woman have her own named section(when did we start doing this), and why was it THE LONGEST ONE

great way to undermine Negan's so called authority, pointless beachside blabbering, Enid's incredibly forced and stupid lines, there's not one interesting thing happening right now. and how the gently caress would Simon keep that a secret from Negan? so contrived

the most interesting thing was Michonne killing zombies in the background of Coral's grave

Simon was good this episode, that whole scene was - you are right, I had somehow washed it from my mind. Good end to them, the trash people were worthless. Though I suspect trash lady is going to come back to bite Rick and/or Negan and Simon.

If Simon has enough clout to keep the other guys from blabbing about trashkru genocide then I guess they are setting up for him to make a move on knocking Negan off, otherwise its just terrible writing.

It’s a side-effect of everyone being infected. Makes you immune to tetanus.

It’s kind of like how Sickle-cell is still around because it provided resistance to Malaria.

E: Did Jadis explain why they talked like that? I saw posts mentioning she spoke in full sentences after everyone else got offed. I still wish the answer was ‘English as a second language class took refuge in a dump, vaguely overcame the language barrier’

Like a zombie walker, you have to sever it at the neck and walk away.

You'll still hear about the important things, like Coral dying, through the grapevine. Everything else that happens on the show is completely pointless.

Maybe Rick is a secret rear end in a top hat and set it on fire when Michonne wasn't looking
