Tales Of The Walking Dead, Blair/Gina: Things To Note
By Liam O'Leary
Tales Of The Walking Dead, Blair/Gina: Part II
7) Unlike last week’s episode, the theme song of this week’s episode isn’t necessarily tied to either Blair or Gina, however, the title sequence does feature an exploding phone and a shattering Circle Of Trust coffee mug.
8) This episode is the first within The Walking Dead universe to tackle the concept of deja vu. How, exactly, Blair and Gina (And, perhaps, Agent Rogers, too) are both experiencing it, we don’t know.
9) As the gas station incident repeats for the third(?) time, Blair gets Agent Rogers to explain the situation in Atlanta, revealing that the military was planning on locking down the city and only leaving two back roads open. This suggests they may already be planning for Cobalt, keeping the back roads open as a contingency plan.
10) After the fourth iteration of the gas station incident, back in the office, Joel pipes up and says that the city isn’t telling them everything. This jives with Agent Rogers warning about the impending lockdown, but it’s odd because at no point in the episode does anyone mention riots within Atlanta. In Fear The Walking Dead, lockdown wasn’t initiated in Los Angeles until after a massive riot broke out, a blackout hit, and some hospitals fell to walkers. These are the sort of incidents you’d think would warrant martial law, but, at least from what we’re shown, Atlanta is not experiencing any of those things, making the military’s reaction seem a little…premature.
11) While Blair and Gina are fighting during the fifth iteration, a blonde man attacks the bald man at the gas pump. Why? During all the other full iterations of the gas station incident that we see, at no point does this fight break out. As they’re fighting, we can hear a man say “That’s enough!” (Which could be the blonde man saying the bald guy had taken “enough” gas), but, the voice sounds like Agent Rogers, who may be attempting to break up Gina and Blair, leaving the reasoning behind this brawl up in the air.
