I am not sure what the time-frame of the earlier episodes were, but last week we heard the report that ‘symptoms’ were in 11 states.

That makes this a fast spreading contagion. Then, recall from TWD at the CDC lab that everyone had the virus, but it did not activate until their deaths.

That’s my thought, too. I think Nick might be the character to root for. I’m pulling for him to beat his addiction and become the “Carol” of the group. :D

Everyone thinks the actor playing Nick the junkie looks like Johnny Depp, but I think he looks more like the late, great actor John Cazale (brother Fredo in The Godfather)

Yep, I’m rooting for him, too.

I kind of want him to hurry up and beat the drugs. I wonder how long the writers will string it out.

Not likely since the writers are more intent on character development rather than establishing a sister series just to screw with the audience by quickly killing all of them off......

You know they’ll bring the drug addiction subplot back later in the series, too - assuming Nick don’t git bit.

You’re probably right.

Think he’ll end up getting someone (accidentally) killed?

So far the theme seems to be “normalcy bias”. Everything will be fine. The gov’t will take care of you/s

Stealing drugs from the sick. Anyone still think Nick is a good guy?

“Nick’s going to have to get clean now...but without the ZA, he probably would have continued on as a junkie until he OD’d.”

Well first...he’s gonna have to pull the stolen morphine drip needle out from between his toes and crawl out from under that old man’s bed. He’s still very much a junkie.

Most of those kids need to get eaten.

That would be a good end. Most of the major characters need to be eaten and if the ratings keep dropping, maybe some of them will.

These people are in a fenced-in Woodbury and don’t realize it yet.

At least we know the timeline is 9 days.

It would have been difficult to create a more obnoxious self centered family than the main characters.

Shouldn’t the whole place be crawling by with walkers?
