The Walking Dead, The Obliged: Things To Note
By Liam O'Leary
6) When did Nora arrive at Alexandria? Was she there before The Group first arrived in the community, or, did she arrive after the war?
7) How did the giant hole get there? If it was natural…how? There’s no giant fallen tree anywhere in sight. Was is made by a (now gone) community as some kind of walker trap?
8) Michonne discussing Andre with Negan is the first time she’s talked about him since revealing his fate to Carl after the prison fell in Season Four’s “Claimed”.
9) It’s kind of funny that Negan should focus on the idea of family making him and Michonne “weak”, as the whole “weak” idea was the motivation for Martha’s killing spree in Season Four of Fear The Walking Dead.
10) How, exactly, did Jed figure out Oceanside had been killing his fellow ex-Saviors? He said he “took the scenic route”, but…that doesn’t really explain anything. I can’t imagine Cyndie or her entourage would be so careless as to leave Arat’s body lying around their old home if they were only after Simon’s surviving underlings, and not looking to rekindle the war.
11) In another callback to other Walking Dead villains, upon being brought more food after Michonne’s earlier outburst, Negan tells her “We’re the same”, the same thing The Crazy Guy told Rick (And would go on to become something of a theme for the first half of Season Five) after being freed from Terminus in the Season Five opener, “No Sanctuary”.
