4) The Principal Mom & her live-in boyfriend are still pretty self-absorbed and I hope they meet EPIC endings:
Just in this episode:
-Boyfriend ignores his son’s pleas for attention/watch his video.
-Principal’s daughter is back at the dead neighbor’s house, cutting memories into herself. Anyone notice her absence? Nope
-Principal’s son is floating in pool scum, and she thinks it’s peachy: “Here’s your pill, Honey”.
-Principal decides to PAINT her walls. Ummm, what? Yup, denial, denial, denial. How about taking a jog to keep fit, like live-in BF (without the earbuds - really, SHTF in your neighborhood & you wear something to block out sounds of something behind you - who does that?)
-Principal Mom decides to invesigate someone else’s problems outside the safety zone, UNARMED, and by cutting the fence, endangers herself & the entire neighborhood.
-Principal mom has a hissy fit when Ex-Wife goes off with her captured, drug-addled son. A simple mouthed “thank you” would have sufficed. Or “I’ll watch your son like he was my own”. Instead, she gets mad at BF for his ex’s selflessnes. Project much, lady? If it was my ex’s druggie future stepkid, I would have stuck like glue to MY OWN kid, and said “TS to that nonsense, you chose it, YOU deal with it.” Not a shred of gratitude between them. Though Liza made a bad first impression, I respect the heck out of her. She better survive this!
Yep...gotta agree.
First thing I thought when she cut the fence was that this lady was DEEPLY stupid. One, going out unarmed. Two, leaving the fence open so the infected could get in.
The house painting was personally funny. Back in ‘05 we had been hit by Hurricane Wilma. No water for a week. No power for 16 days. We had already decided we were getting out of Dodge, so my wife thought that this was the perfect time to start painting the kitchen. When I saw the FTWD Mom painting during the Zombie Apocalypse, I said “Hey Honey, someone who thinks like you!” I hope the bruises will go away soon.
She was the school counselor. She and Tobias (the nerd, zit faced kid) killed the principal.
Madison was painting the walls to get the blood and guts off of it from the shooting of the zombie neighbor in episode 2.
Travis ignoring his teen son’s pleas because huh maybe it’s a parent/teen thing?
Madison doesn’t think “it’s peachy” but maybe thinks “great, dealing with my addict son yet again when there’s a whole lot going on?”
Madison decides to investigate because Chris thinks it’s important?
Madison didn’t have a hissy fit because Liza went off with Madison’s son but because Liza alerted the military/doctor to Nick’s addiction and thus Nick was “taken in.” I’d be pissed too. And Liza, ex wife didn’t go with Nick but because Dr asked her to and Liza left behind her teenage son! Maybe Liza didn’t “stick like glue” to her OWN kid because she cared about other stuff more? That’s how I’d see it. Nothing would make me leave my children. Nothing.
I liked Liza and still do. She’s no more perfect than any of the others imo.
