The Walking Dead, Silence The Whisperers: Things To Note
By Liam O'Leary
13) With Margo’s death, Alfred is now the last named member of the Highwaymen alive.
14) During Siddiq’s…hallucination(?), strangely, we can see the ghostly face of Enid.
15) Much like in last season’s third episode, “Warning Signs”, this episode features people attempting to exact revenge against a former member of a hostile group. That said, in this instance, the former member of the hostile group had nothing to do with the incidents the vengeful are attempting to get vengeance for.
16) While in the infirmary, Lydia recounts to Daryl how her dad disliked deodorant because it irritated him. This is the first we’ve learned about him since the flashbacks in Season Nine’s “Omega”, and one of the first true things we’ve learned, as much of what we saw of him in that episode was told through the distorted version of events Alpha had drilled into Lydia’s head.
17) As the wall collapses at Hilltop, Judith fights walkers side-by-side with Michonne. This mirrors when Carl did the same with Rick when the weak portion of the fence fell at the prison in Season Four’s “Internment”.
18) After Michonne and company leave for Oceanside, Magna and Yumiko get into an argument about the latter calling their group back during their earlier fight with the walkers outside Hilltop’s walls, despite Magna’s belief they had the situation under control. During this argument, Magna tells Yumiko “You’re not my lawyer anymore”. This revelation makes Yumiko the third lawyer we’ve met in The Walking Dead, behind Andrea and Michonne.
19) It’s funny that (In reference to fitting in at Alexandria) Lydia should say that she wanted to be like Daryl. When one considers how long it took for him to “fit in” with the Atlanta group, and again when the group first arrived at Alexandria, Lydia may be more like Daryl than she realizes.
And, with that, we’ve concluded our Things To Note for this week. Was there anything you missed? Was there anything I missed? Feel free to throw in your things to note in the comments!
