"Walker" on 4Chan has his SPOILERS for episode 11, "Judge, Jury, and Executioner"

Episode starts [spoiler]with Daryl beating the gao se out of Randall in a shed. Randall reveals that their group has about 30 people, including women and children, and that he doesn't know where they're staying since they're always on the move. He also says that they're heavily armed and tells a story about how they once found a guy with two young daughters while out scavenging and proceeded to rape the girls, letting their father live so he could watch. Daryl beats him even harder. Cue theme music.

Daryl leaves the shed and reveals to the others what he found out. Based on that knowledge, Rick decides that they must kill Randall. Only Dale argues against it and asks Rick for one day to talk to everybody and convince them to let Randall live. He gets no support from Daryl, Hershel, Shane or even Glenn. Then there's this big discussion about whether to go through with it. Dale vehemently objects, telling everyone that this is murder and means forever giving up hope for a civilized society. In the end, only Andrea sides with Dale. Majority rules, so Randall is to be executed.

There's also a moment between Hershel and Glenn at one point where the old man gives Glenn his father's watch along with his blessing to Glenn's relationship with his daughter.

Meanwhile, Carl sneaks into the shed to look at Randall who begs Carl to help him escape. Shane finds Carl there and drags him out, telling him to stop trying to get himself killed. Carl then immediately goes and calls Carol an idiot for believing that Sophia is in heaven. Rick asks him to apologize and start thinking before opening his mouth. Carl then steals Daryl's gun, finds a walker stuck in a swamp and tries to shoot it. Before he can do that, the walker breaks free and attempts to grab Carl, who freaks out and runs away.

At nightfall, Rick takes Randall to the barn and prepares to shoot him, but Carl comes in to watch. Rick can't kill Randall in front of his son, so he decides to hold Randall in custody for now. Near the woods, Dale finds a mutilated cow and is attacked by the same walker from before, who freed itself from the swamp to follow Carl. Dale doesn't get bit, but the walker tears open his guts before it's killed by Daryl. Dale's wounds are too grave and Daryl performs a mercy killing by shooting him in the head.[/spoiler] End episode.

I thought it was a good episode .

Rick gets "zombie kill of the week" with that "through the head trick" .

It's kinda funny I saw a variation of that kill yesterday with Raylan Givens .

Love the Talking Dead !
Kevin Smith is always great .


While I really enjoy WD whenever I'm watching "Justified" I find myself thinking the WD writers could learn something from Raylan's crew .
Justified has nary a wasted moment .

I love both , but one is art while the other is a comic book .
( I love the comic too but it does get awful preachy . A lot )

I suspect post-apocalyptic women would be tough, but not in the same way as men would be tough.  I'm not sure why our modern definition of equality has to mean women are the same as men, but whatever.  Andrea's already proven she can't handle a rifle safely.

[AdmiralDigby]

Andrea's already proven she can't handle a rifle safely.

Indeed .
However , her gun skills > than Lori's driving skills


And unlike Ms Queen Bee , Andrea does stuff around the farm - patrolling , digging graves .......

Neither one is all that likeable right now .

[Eric]

Neither one is all that likeable right now .

I agree with you there.   You don't have to be an expert rifleman to be on lookout (OTOH, that sammich won't make itself!).

[AdmiralDigby]

You don't have to be an expert rifleman to be on lookout (OTOH, that sammich won't make itself!).

No worries .
Lori will just tell someone else to make said sandwich .
And watch Carl .
